Humanity Corner - This nightmare won’t end unless we do something about it. 26 people shot dead in a church with an assault rifle - a weapon that serves no purpose beyond killing as many people as possible, as quickly as possible. No one hunts with an AR-15. No one defends themselves with an assault rifle. Assault…

And to be honest, superheroes are an inherently ludicrous concept.

Yes, if it’s a new story set in the same world. I might be alone, but I really liked the liberties taken by Shadow of Mordor/War while still utilizing the same now-iconic aesthetic of the films.

And by script I mean dialogue. Jesus it’s dire.

Tolkien Estate will never give up the rights to the Silmarillion. That could be a cool miniseries, though.

I miss him, but not as much as I thought I would. They’ve done so much to elevate the other characters in his absence - especially Mick, who has delightfully filled the role once occupied by Snart.

Is there anyone who doesn’t?

I still miss Snart though.

Replacement half candidates? Imagine Mick being an actual ball of fire. But time shenanigans+one of Stein’s descendants is more likely

And Gideon has some feedback in that talk all over each other rant about Zari’s assessments. The post credits exposition session is always top notch comedy w Waverider Crew.

Some of the promotional stuff for the crossover shows Sara in a new version of the White Canary costume (did Gideon tailor it?)

Mick was not defensive but freely admitted with a tip of his beer bottle that he had been drunk since breakfast. Otherwise, yeah.

Yeah, her costume still seems to be in progress. I notice she hasn’t worn the season one/two outfit in a while.

And it’d be sad if we had to leave Jax as well with Garber leaving, so I’m glad they’re already setting up a workaround.

Especially since Jax has grown as a character and feels like a whole person not just half of a superhero.

I am reluctant to start comparing/ ranking all the ArrowVerse shows since that gets annoying and also picky, but for me LoT is for sure the most fun one of them at the moment & has been for a while. It just knows what it is and embraces it, and gives the whole (stellar) cast a chance to shine in every episode.

Very glad to see Jax recruiting Ray to “break up Firestorm.” With Victor Garber leaving the show I had some concern about what that meant for Jax staying on the team, but I am glad to see them getting out in front of the situation and making it so that Jax can be a solo Firestorm, ideally.

This was EXCEEDINGLY DELIGHTFUL. Holy shit, this show is doing very well.

But what is happening with the White Canary costume? I know it’s superfluous and she rarely uses it, but they replaced the coat with sleeves - OK - but now it has like a disco collar thing going on?

I dropped this show towards the end of Season 1, but people kept saying how much it had improved in Season 2. So, I recently went back and caught up with Season 2 & 3, and it’s almost unbelievable how good this is. This show is a case study in how to turn a show around. It’s so much fun now! And, just when you think…

Danny Trejo had to be their pie-in-the-sky casting for Gypsy’s dad. And then, when they called his people on a lark, he said “Okay”.

Also, Cisco and Gypsy have the best chemistry in all the DC CW multiverse.
