Idris Elba stars as an astronaut aboard the International Space Station. During an emergency evacuation, his escape pod is shunted through time and space to land him on a world where the South won the Civil War, and the White World Council of Confederates and Nazis rules the world with a white iron fist. Can our hero…

I've come to respect how they spent two seasons warming people up to the world and ideas before letting season 3 come in swinging, because holy shit.

Oh, Canada!

If it's good enough for Star Trek and DC, then it's fine here too, dammit!

I liked the second half of Season 1 a lot, and Season 2 felt like they were pulling in two directions. My hope is the miniseries is an attempt to follow the better path leading out from the start of S2 rather than the clusterfuck they got into post-strike.

I feel it's worth pointing out that if the four movies DC discussed a while back are panning out (that is: Deathstroke, Suicide Squad, Team 7, and Booster Gold), two could be spun off almost directly from Arrow, and hints for the other two were dropped there as well. I all but pray that the higher-ups at DC are doing…

Because Seasons 1 and 2 were both on upward trends. The Writer's Strike seemed to rattle the whole show. Frankly, I'd be fine as hell if everything after the S1 finale was shown to be a single timeline, and we see Hiro and Peter shutting it off so we can get a cleaner start.

Less facetiously, are you trying to say that all mutations must be cancerous? Because that would be wrong. There are plenty of genetic mutations that can occur which don't lead to cancer, which was all I was trying to cover in my second point - some non-cancerous mutations can end up providing beneficial effects or at…

Okay, bye.

Cancer is just a form of mutation in many cases. The mutations themselves aren't evolution, but any which either help or don't bother the species that carry on into future generations are the core of evolution, however.

And I don't think it's fair to take the material to task until we can actually see it, because sticking strictly to older material is by no means a necessary good.

Yes, because this has never happened in all the *New Fantastic Four* comics or *Wolverine and the X-Men* other media. Nope, only now is Wolverine being shoved down the audience's throats when we really just want him as a side character.

So we should split up Texas too, then? Cool!

I believe it's worth pointing the four smaller films supposedly in the works: Booster Gold, Suicide Squad, Team 7, and Deathstroke. Team 7 has been mentioned in Arrow as where Slade once worked as part of ASIS. What's much more likely to happen is a team up between Team Arrow and ARGUS that ends with Ollie popping an…

I'd be careful getting close to a panda with bamboo... I hear it eats shoots and leaves when upset.

He reached the final level years ago. He's just waiting for new raid content.

But then they'd have to have done things to explain. They're mostly just waiting around for the plot train to pick them up from Foggetaboutit Station.

very terse

Makes sense to me. I think he would make an incredible Black Adam, and a Namor with a strong rivalry with a good Mr. Fantastic and Dr. Doom could make for an interesting F4 reboot franchise.

My suspicion is that Dwayne Johnson seems to work really well bouncing off of other people. The sole survivor style of action film star doesn't suit him too well, and he likely does well with the kids movies for the same reason he's fun in the franchise pics - he gets a lot more opportunity to emote and interact,…
