I just caught up and man what a fun ride up until the horseshit finale. Like wow, all season long Stein's been throwing up huge death flags left and right, and I was hoping to God after he survived to see the birth of his grandkid (I totally expected him to die before then and then they'd have a cute/sad moment where Lily names the baby after him), that maybe the show would do something unexpected and give him his happy ending. But no, he does the noble sacrifice on Naziworld, and somehow the magic computer lady can't fix them (I noticed Gideon never talked at all in the med bay, I guess even she couldn't explain the lame bullshit happening. It was just all so painfully... predictable. I know none of the Arrowverse shows are winning awards for their masterful writing, but could we just once not use the biggest cliche available when writing off an old character? Also everybody calls Felicity the worst for hijacking the wedding at the end but I would argue they're all awful because the whole "ceremony" takes place like right after the funeral. While they're all still wearing their funeral clothes! Like drat, you don't have to spend days in mourning or anything, but at least change real quick. It just feels awkward. All that poo poo said though, it was a generally great crossover. TwoPair fucked around with this message at 10:09 on Dec 1, 2017 |

I feel like he's used in small enough doses that he hasn't gotten too bad, for me at least. Even with him now popping up more as Nate's work buddy, he's never like, the A-plot.

twistedmentat posted:They had Gideon show up on Flash this week and forgot that she had a different voice than on Legends. They also used her "new" CGI floaty head that supposedly Zari just made for her even though the scene took place in the past. Although whatever, both shows are loving with time, it's amazing anything in the timeline stays fixed.

Shaddak posted:Good to know. Is the new stuff that bad? I'm only a couple of issues in, at the beginning. The New 52 stuff is. The more recent stuff is... different. I wouldn't call it bad, but it's definitely not a lot of folks' cup of tea. A lot of people don't like Constantine interacting with superheroes/the larger DCU at all, but if you're watching this show, clearly that won't be a problem for you.

twistedmentat posted:At first I thought Ava was just going to have complete, blind faith in the TB, but then they showed she actually just hates magical creatures. tbf most of the ones she's met have been evil. The vast majority (if not all, I wasn't clear on that) of them came from literal Hell according to Constantine, and that's a tough stigma to break.

I liked Mona when she was just comic relief but then that like quickly disappeared when they legitimately tried to do a romance plot with a loving Hawaiian caveman demigod. Now that it looks like she might stick around though I guess I'll have to see if Were-Mona is more funny or if they try to play her for a tragedy because that would get real old real fast.

It's a bit of an obvious joke but I wish they would've followed up Ray calling Constantine's loose necktie tryhard with the bug flying to Constantine and him admitting he does it on purpose.

A Fancy Hat posted:From the way Nate was talking to Neron, I'm curious what deal was made. Nate's a hemophiliac, right? Maybe "doing it all for him" means that Hank made a deal to rid Nate of that (not realizing at the time that Nate can turn into steel, which mostly negates him having to worry about being cut)

Frankly I don't think Mona's plotline would be half as annoying if her poor lost love wasn't a loving caveman werewolf. I mean if Konane could've talked a bit beyond grunting, maybe even become half a character instead of basically a one-note gag, I could buy it. If they wanted a werewolf (or a werewolf to die and make another character a werewolf) on the team, there are werewolves all over fiction that have human sides capable of speaking and maybe winning over a girl, use one of those types! That said, I easily got the biggest laugh out of Charlie getting immediately flipped over the table after getting excited about Mona's transformation. Anyway, that one musical sequence was better than the entirety of that Flash/Supergirl musical crossover episode, and what it should've been in the first place.

Andrew_1985 posted:I enjoyed the episode a lot. What happened to the Love God at the end of the episode? Ray & Nora should have sung along with everyone else. He says he was just a guy (I forget the name) who became a love god by finding Kamadeva's ashes, and you see Zari take the vial of ashes off him at the end of the Bollywood number. Presumably they just left him as a mere mortal in England and took the ashes back to the Time Bureau. And Ray & Nora did sing, albeit very briefly, they just weren't involved in the dance number.

E. Revenant posted:Now the real question is why did Ray agree to the possession in the first place? This episode established that you had to be willing or get your soul ground down in purgatory for a demon to take over. There Wasn't enough time for the Ikea treatment so just what deal did Ray strike with Neron? He might not have taken a deal really. At least judging by the previews for next week where Neron's trying to take over but Ray can still talk and stuff. So it could be some sort of out-of-the-ordinary case. Speaking of Ray, does it seem like he's getting less action in the field as Atom or is that just me? I feel like maybe the LoT crew might have already stretched their meager effects budget too far and can't afford any more Tiny Ray scenes.

I think Ray and Sara are the only ones that really have "costumes" anymore*. I guess unless you count Mick and Constantine since they just wear the same clothes all the time. *I guess Nate does but now he's not really around plus literally everybody realized his looked horrible

I cannot believe that the endgame of this season is shaping up to be the Legends vs. a loving Ray & Gary team up. Okay, never mind, I can totally believe it from this show, I'm just consistently amazed by it.

Vietnamwees posted:So THAT'S why Gary lost his nipple to a bloodthirsty Unicorn in the season premiere! Pretty sure it's just demonic power of suggestion since Gary thought it was cool and didn't want Gideon to fix him up back in the premiere. "That nipple belongs to Hell now, Gary!" is probably the best line ever delivered seriously on television.

They've been pretty vague on what demons in particular have a claim on John. That said, if the coin was there, you know he stole it.
