Oho, that seems likely.

Routh's Superman costume is just the Kingdom Come costume, from what I recall. I like it as a variation, but it's not a classic really. (The Supergirl continuity costume for Superman, conversely, really reminds me of the Eradicator's Superman costume and I think that's a really solid design, particularly for live…

Such a dumb and inconsistent rule of theirs, but apparently a thing, so I wouldn't be surprised.

Counterpoint, the first time he spoke in the Arrowverse (I’m fairly certain it was on The Flash, though maybe it was Arrow?) I immediately went “oh hey! It’s that guy!” The actor has a pretty distinctive voice, and he really plays it up and adds a particular flavour of ham in his Arrowverse delivery.

I feel like ironically enough the DCEU and the Arrowverse have a much healthier relationship than the MCU and their TV offerings so far.

The paragons being the respective show leads would make sense, but maybe too much sense? It’d be pretty predictable, is what I’m saying, particularly after the paper-thin misdirect tonight where obviously “bat of the future” was Kate Kane but they dragged it out until the eventual reveal at the end of the episode (not…

Yeah, they didn’t even seem to establish what they were, maybe I wasn’t paying enough attention but I swear they skipped right from “we should do some recon, there are some forces the Anti-Monitor has that will attack the tower” to “we need to defend from these Shadow Demons” sorry the what now? Oh, doesn’t matter, we…

Only in the republican party is senility seen as an endearing quality.

Yeah, that didn’t even seem like a notable rooftop, much less was there any dialogue even attempting to explain why the CGI flyers needed to care about some folks standing there or how Ollie was slowing them down at all. Oh well, guess we’re just seeing the seams of the shoestring budget and breakneck production pace, …

Yeah frankly the fighting was by far the least interesting part of the episode.

Indeed, the Grim Bazinga comes for us all.

I’ll take your word for it, or more than your word since AVClub Commentariat Alumni Captain Midnight has similarly high praise:

I certainly hadn’t heard of it, but I’m the kinda weirdo who literally runs his own Fediverse instance, so while I find social media (like these ‘ere comments sections!) endlessly interesting, I tend to look towards the opposite end of things from a petroauthoritarian-backed service, heh. So no real surprise it…

Doors and corners, kid, doors and corners.

I literally don’t believe it, even though I know in my bones it must be true.

Frankly even just her having the temerity to be female puts her perilously close to being cancelled by the anime nazis out there.

They’re gonna be the contrarians loudly yelling “this proves Scorcese was right, but only about Marvel movies!” at anyone who they think might listen.

Jason Momoa has seen it, and assured us it is “ssssiiicccckkkkkk”—presumably not in a slowly-dying-from-malaria sort of way.

Oof, too true.
