so they changed all the poo poo with the demon on the roof, that was totally different in the leaked copy.

Demon looked different, it wasn't John, it looked like a electro/fire demon but in the guard. Astrid was there, the dialog was different. Also she didn't disappear and leave the necklace, so the bar scene was different. Was identical until the dude came on the roof.

I'll keep watching the show. It has potential and I'll forgive the pilot for being all over the place. Just gotta slow down and give time for poo poo to sink in before immediately jumping to the next scene.

It was less disjointed in the original pilot. Because the chick was still on the team at the end.

Is it the pilot though, if they changed it over the original pilot.. Episode 1 is probably more accurate

Ghosts and fantasy stuff don't do it for everyone. The Supernatural fans don't take to kindly to Castiel knock offs (i know).

You know what, the front 95% of the episode was entertaining to me. It wasn't anything special, but it felt like a season 1/2 Supernatural episode, back when I still watched and liked the show. I didn't know they would be going the procedural route, but all in all I don't really mind it, especially paired up with Grimm.

The end, though, with John just casually tossing out that line about "nothing blacker than gypsy magic" made me cringe hardcore. I mean, in a show about magic, you're going to have people representing a religious/ethnic/etc group that are bad guys, and that's not a problem. You can have someone who is Romani, who is also the bad guy, but don't have someone who is the bad guy because they're Romani, man. That's hosed up. That entire scene would've gone the exact same way if they dropped that one line, because it wasn't actually necessary.

If i've learned one thing from TV and Gypsies in general. They throw black Magic and curses around like it's their job.

He wouldn't, as he can't drive, which is why Chas has to drive him everywhere. But that is in the comics, he's probably a baptist NASCAR Marine here.

(Also, John would never allow himself to be pickpocketed, especially by someone he thinks is going to steal his wallet.)

Why does he explain his coal mining knowledge by saying he grew up in Liverpool? There are no coal mines in Liverpool AFAIK. Can any UK goons confirm/deny?

Liverpool is a port city, they used to, and probably still export coal from there. Wales is not pretty much across the bay from Liverpool.
Liverpool used be in Lancashire up till the 70's. Plenty of coal mining in Lancashire back in the day.

I have no idea how old Constantine is supposed to be

Edit: The Miners Strike was going on in 84-85 when he was created, so it's works for me.

Well Walrus you sold me on Swamp Thing. I've always been a Marvel guy but I've been meaning to get into some DC titles for years. I'll be getting the first volumes of Hellblazer and the Moore Swamp Thing trades.

I'd read Sandman too, if you haven't already. Everyone should read it at least once.

There are unconfirmed rumors that Guillermo del Toro loved Matt's performance and sort of wanted him for JLD. But rumors are rumors and del Toro is del Toro, so who knows. That movie might never me made. I'm still waiting for Hellboy III but I know it will never happen.

Yeah i read all that. But it could be 2020 before anything is done. Constantine and Swamp Thing in the same movie would be beyond epic.

Confirmed audio mix was for the birds. When manny was in the tunnel, the reverbs and echo were loving with it. also in other places kept being muffled when actors were moving or faced away from camera.

Threw me because usually the sound is really good.

Some interesting (and more than likely of the "my uncle works at nintendo" variety) rumors swirling that they are considering moving Constantine to Syfy and rebranding it Hellblazer.

Obviously, "sources" here could be just made up wishful thinking, but I would be actually okay with that.

Not exactly the news i would have hoped for, but it's better than nothing.
