Marvel's way of reminding people that the film's and shows will remain separate is by making Clark Gregg feel bad.

ToastyPotato posted:That doesn't really matter. Saying you can't have two "supernatural-esque" shows on the schedule when you have two vampire shows on the schedule (regardless of where the second one came from) is kind of silly. CBS has 2 or 3 NCISes and as many CSIs. People will watch what they feel like watching. They aren't going to go "Oh I watch and love Supernatural, therefore I simply cannot watch another show remotely like it." If anything those viewers would be more likely to watch it. Especially if they used Supernatural as a lead-in (I don't know what follows Supernatural right now because I don't follow that show). A lot of viewers are particular about genre of shows*, at least in my experience. *We all know a guy who only watches police procedurals, or only sci-fi shows.

zoux posted:So like is Superman supposed to be MoS Superman or what? This is in the same universe as Flash and Arrow right? The producer Greg Berlanti suggested a crossover onto Flash/Arrow could be possible, but nothing definitive is planned yet. So maybe? Edit: He said that back in November during an interview with EW. http://screenrant.com/supergirl-tv-show-arrow-flash-crossover-episode/

I just learned that the CW is a sister station for CBS in a joint venture with Time Warner, so a crossover doesn't sound quite as unlikely.

ToastyPotato posted:It's not impossible, but CBS is paying more for SG so they might decide to not play ball if they don't feel like it. They can also introduce the notion of Superman in the Arrowverse with some quick dump dialogue that no one blinks at. Just to be clear, I don't think the chance of a crossover is very high, but I wouldn't rule it out just yet. fadam posted:I don't want this to sound like I'm flaming you or anything, but what about this appeals to you?

A Tin Of Beans posted:Oh, I loving hated the "I'M NOT GAY" joke, too. Like ... what? Okay. Great, he misinterpreted her 'coming out' as a superhero as her being a lesbian. Cool. Thanks. Good poo poo, guys. I hated that bit the most out of that trailer. fadam posted:Sure, but don't you think it's a little bogus that the first female led superhero show gets something like this as a first trailer? Definitely agree that the trailer is pretty bullshit. The music choice and scene choices were really bad. My hope is that almost all of that nonsense is the first episode or two and they quickly move on to her just fighting crime. My biggest worry is that since they casted Calista Flockhart they will have to use her, meaning more terrible workplace conversations.

Will the show not premiering until November, I would guess they are still tinkering with some of the CG work. It's a first look trailer, so I can't imagine the whole show will be Taylor Swift songs and "the name SuperGirl is empowering!" dialogue.

fadam posted:Sure, and I agree that all this debate and discussion is largely pointless because who knows how the show is actually going to turn out, but aren't trailers usually consistent in tone and content to the finished product? I stopped believing this a long time ago. Trailers can be very misleading.

The showrunners are saying the first half of next season on Arrow and Flash will lead directly into the events of Legends, and the second half of the season will air at the same time as Legends. So my guess is: Alternatively, the second half of Flash and Arrow is just an extended crossover arc with Legends in the mix as well.

Deadpool posted:The only actor announced that wasn't in that trailer is probably going to be the other half of Firestorm. But he won't be Rusch since we've already seen Rusch on the show and it's not that actor. Which actor by chance? Also, has CW or the Flash production crew stated they don't have plans to re-use Jason Rusch in Legends? They casted Luc Roderique who's been on a couple CW shows (the 100, iZombie) already so I could see them re-using him but just keeping it under wraps for now. Edit: Looked up the show on IMDB. Deadpool, are you talking about the character Jay Jackson and his actor? MacheteZombie fucked around with this message at 19:35 on May 14, 2015 |

Yeah I can see that, I just can't decide if he's going to be "not-Cyborg" or not though. The backstory details they've released about that character sound so similar to Cyborg's.

Powers has some weird details in it's universe, and is a bit inconsistent, however if you enjoy watching Superhero shows it's not the worst out of the lot. It took a friend of mine a lot of convincing before I gave it a shot though. Still on episode 6.

How tied into the Flash and Arrow stories is LoT going to be? Any chance that the grave thing will be a mid season plot and since LoT is about fixing timelines or w/e they can resurrect the dead character as part of that?

Madkal posted:True, but it just feels like a shame that they didn't keep him close to the source material like they did with a character like Ras, especially with the direction the season is going. Something closer resembling the ideals of the original character would have made a great antagonist to Oliver's latest decision, but instead they took a complex character and reduced him to a one note forgettable villain. Unless of course he comes back with a new found philosophical perspective since he got burned by all the existing power structures.

Rhyno posted:The showrunners never said that, it was Ben Mcenzie (Gordon). There were rumors that there was gonna be a 5 year jump between seasons but they're super in love with young Selina so they don't want to writer her out or some poo poo. When her and Bruce hit their growth spurts that might change and what I'm somewhat expecting at some point. Maybe, Bruce's actor was cast based on family genes hoping he'll pop up to like 6ft4 lol. redbackground posted:"Stop right there, Son of Balloon Man! You thought that by distracting me with Son of Riddler and Son of Doctor Freeze, you and Son of Firefly could take over Gotham City!" I make this joke too, but a lot of ages line up pretty well. Riddler might be the only one that's too old, but I'm pretty sure he's early 20's. So assuming Bruce is in full Batman mode by 20, it'll make him just over 30, Firefly was the same age or just a few years apart from Selina, and Freeze is an old man in the cartoon iirc. Jerome was at a good age too, but he dead now. MacheteZombie fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Oct 29, 2015 |

Rhyno posted:Remember when the Star Trek TNG producers thought Will Wheaton was going to grow up to be a beefcake? Will Wheaton is quite handsome if he'd just shave. No beefcake though, I'll give you that. Codependent Poster posted:The real big thing I hate about Gotham and these villains is that it loses the question of if Batman created them. Once a guy starts dressing like a bat, then more crazy people in costumes and gimmicks start showing up too. Is Batman responsible for creating them in some way? That's a great question and can lead to a lot of good stories. i get this criticism, and it's one I've struggled with. The thing is, that whole "Batman perpetuates the evils of Gotham" theme wasn't always part of Batman's myth. He used to just be a Batdude who solved crimes. I feel like Gotham is trying to bring a lot of that into the modern era which makes it hard for some people to divorce that prevalent theme of modern Batman. Ya'll keep hating on Balloon Man, but he was awesome.
