Well, I saw a bunch of people on the thread using it… so if you started it, then yeah, I got it from you.

Well, it was pretty spot-on!
Oh, shoot! Never would have pegged that one— mostly because I've never heard of the guy (and considering how big a Superman fan I am, that IS a pretty deep cut).
Don't forget— he has a blackbelt!
You could argue a few justifications for this.
Man, this episode was just a whole BUNDLE of awkward, wasn't it? I mean, Supergirl has never had the sharpest writing going for it, but almost every line in this week's outing crashed and burned— from Alex's forced expository monologue to Henshaw's declaration that he's "Cyborg-Superman!"
Yeah, I could see that… but the way I see it, using Hoechlin as Cyborg-Superman might be their way of having their cake and eating it, too. Because Cyborg-Superman is likely, legally speaking, a completely different character than Superman himself— so while Clark Kent may only have been cleared for two episodes in the…
If this season doesn't end up featuring at LEAST one episode of Tyler Hoechlin as a fully-transformed Hank Henshaw/Cyborg-Superman, I will be seriously pissed off.
It didn't help, though, just how inconsistently Ra's was written at the end of the season compared to the beginning.
No, I believe the preferred nomenclature was "Killary".
Soooo… about this flat declaration by Trump's campaign manager that he idolizes SATAN HIMSELF. Any chance it's going to wake up any of the zealous, supposedly morally-upright Christian conservatives who voted for this clown to the fact that maybe— JUST MAYBE— they've just voted some truly monsterous people into power?
Just because one demographic was a sizable factor in his victory, that doesn't preclude the fact that the other played just as decisive a role for completely different reasons.
I don't think I appreciated Brick as much as I could have. His introduction— handing some punk a gun, telling him he gets "one shot"— confusingly suggested that he might be some kind of bulletproof metahuman (since, in the comics, he actually IS a bulletproof metahuman)… and the episode never really gave us enough…
Until, of course, Clark suddenly gives up on the idea of talking and shoves Bruce half a city block before tackling him through a building.
Man, that shield must be made of some incredible stuff. What's it made of again, show? Oh… you're never going to tell us? Just accept that it can deflect super-strong blows with absolutely zero impact on the person holding it? Right, yeah, okay, whatever.
She's not dead— she's probably frozen in the ice, just like the wolf in this episode! And just like the parasite in that wolf, when she thaws out, she'll probably try to eradicate all human life on the planet and murder several people before she can be stopped.
Especially when the rookie vigilante's first mission is to take on an EIGHT FOOT TALL ALIEN PARASITE MONSTER powered by both a Kryptonian AND a Martian. Seriously, how did that fight not end with James reduced to a smear of blood on the sidewalk?
Ehh… maybe someday. I have a friend who wants me to see it, but I've never been interested. I'll keep your recommendation in mind, though.
"Eh, I could pull a better cartoon outta my a-aaahaHAHA! HEY! Whoo!"
But RoboCop really wasn't about them "stealing his past". It was about Murphy's dehumanization and commoditization as a corporate product, and about the loss of identity.
