Seriously though, can you imagine his thought processes that moment of the bridge? The slow growing horror that not only is that man 100% serious about the plan but this is what they do all the time right before they gently caress up your most recent plan? This is the opposition and how they roll?

How he stayed sane during all of that, I'll never know. The Legends are the real monsters, when you think about it.

The Legends are the superhero equivalent of drunken boxing. You never know what they're gonna do next.

This is why I actually don't blame Darhk for turning Grodd loose on Zambesi. In trying to pre-empt them loving everything up, he went rogue and hosed everything up himself. Dude was thinking like a Legend.

It was such clear actor self indulgence. Only someone with a massive ego would think "hey, why don't we make the world this movie happens in, I, as an actor, also exists".

Did John Noble flub his line when Ray played back the recording? It sounded like he said "Take me to waverider" instead of "Take me to the waverider."

I will never stop saying how glad I am to have been so wrong about him. We saw that glimmer when he mimicked Joe and he's just been such a blast since he escaped from the black hole.

Man, Nora is super dead because you see her goddamn head come off during the transformation. She doesn't so much turn into Mollus as he exploded out of her.

Damien could still save her soul and put it in, I don't know, a Beebo or something. He's filled with newfound Dad Powers and on a Berlanti show that means he's unstoppable.

I'm hoping next season, with Constantine joining, they find someway to introduce Jason Blood and The Demon. Especially if they keep The Demon's rhyming speech pattern in

I love how precious his movements are. While I totally ship Wally and Zari, i'd not be opposed to Wally being bisexual too.

And yea, I guess I was right that Norah was only evil because of the Mollus possession, that the girl they took to Jitters is still there.

Oh man Etrigan would be awesome to see.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I've gotten no Wally/Zari vibes off the characters and I really think people were just jumping on Zari being happy that she was no longer the new kid and there was someone she could treat like a newbie.

But I've been wrong before, so who knows?

I think Keinyan has been playing Wally as Bi since he came back - he goes out of the way to say "the right person" instead of "the right girl" in his reintroduction episode.

Showdown in the Galaxy Era.

Probably both. This show's way more self-aware about queer identities than most, but also Keiynan Lonsdale has been vocal about that topic, personally and professionally. He came out (as bi) not too long ago, and has voiced an interest in playing characters that are, as well.

It's good for representation and whatnot, but mostly I'd love to see this show antagonize rear end in a top hat comic fans. "Wally West is black and bisexual now. Here he is traveling through time and having sex with Paul Revere."

Your post made me laugh a lot, and it's a really good post.

(but Lonsdale identifies as queer not bi)

One of the reasons I'd hope they'd explore that aspect of the character is that it seems like Lesbian and Bi women is totally cool (becuase gross dudes can get boners off it so its okay), but dudes being bi or gay? No way.

John Constantine is absolutely going to gently caress at least two men next season if I know this show's tone.

I agree, Jes MacCallan as Thawne would be something to see.

It really feels like they're planning on having Amaya leave the team. Seeing as we have proof that she does.
