I mostly agree, sure…but if there was some flashback where 11-year-olds Barry and Iris were shown living in the same home, bedrooms across the hall, and got called down by Joe for dinner, only to make eyes across the table or play footsy under the table or something…that would be pretty uncomfortable, wouldn't it?

I think it would be kinda cool if Barry used his slow down to refocus on being, y'know, a normal cop scientist. Maybe get involved with some case that uses his conventional expertise. One assumes he spent years in school learning the ins-and-outs of forensics. That's not valuable, too?

I'm conflicted by my desire to see some flashbacks of Barry and Iris as kids together with the reality that any depiction of them bonding as adolescences can only highlight the incest-iness the show has largely tiptoed around.

Unlike the Mona Lisa, that's one iconic smile that is far from subtle, and by now we all know the reason why.

I'm afraid of DC movies becoming Marvel movies. They're just so…the same. Homogeneous as a gallon of 2%. Colorful and fun and flashy and wry, and utterly forgettable and disposable. I've seen most Marvel movies, and can barely remember anything from a single one, so slight was their actual content. And that says

"This week's theme, 'Lost Signal'. Act One: Tyke Takes Control, the story of a ten-year-old girl with epilepsy who mastered broadcasting equipment for the last reasons you might expect. Act Two: War of the Worlds, Redeux, where we talk to people who's lives fell apart in all kinds of ways when their morning news got

One of my first Playstation games was a Jurassic Park title that opens with an elaborate animation of the Dreamworks Moon Fisher Boy apparently snagging some dinos, only to get yanked off the moon and devoured by raptors….which is pretty messed up, really, and sounds more like a nightmare I must've had.

There's been weaker grounds for a crossover.

In the midst of all the grief and turmoil and controversy, I just gotta say…Felicity was wearing one absolutely hideous sweater.

I actually kinda like how pissed people are about Laurel dying. I had no idea there were so many hardcore Green Arrow fans! He's easily one of my favorites. I don't really care that much about the death of this character labeled Black Canary (let's face it, she was never REALLY Black Canary, anyway, and spent a long

I"m not shocked or offended. Superheros are indeed largely a western, and especially American thing. What amuses me is that within our superhero universes, somehow 99% of all the intrigue and and action happens within this relatively little geographical space, and the the rare times it doesn't the industry thinks we

Brendan Fraser, in a movie simply titled "Dudley".

"…has an unspecified degree of super-strength. He retained these powers for over 50 years, although they did not keep him completely youthful." Well, that's weird and vague and vaguely depressing. However, I couldn't bring myself to keep delving into Canada's premiere mounty superhero after…" After his son died of

No mounty themed guy, though? Now that's just lazy! They already have weapons and iconic uniforms!

Yay, India has…a…superhero looking out for all it's billion people! Continuing the tradition of America having hundreds of heroes, while "foreign" regions get a single dude with regional-specific powers. Chakra will be joined by China's kungfu-themed hero, Japan's ninja/samurai guy, Africa's animal transformer,

I feel like Nathan Fillion is the Bruce Campbell torchbearer. They've both had perfectly fine careers, but seemed like they were cheated out of being much bigger than they should have been. Each of them deserved to be a Harrison Ford, and kinda almost were. Campbell was the perfect cowboy in a scifi cowboy show that

I like that Mrs. Zelda F. is indeed the namesake of the video game franchise, but not for any good reason. The story goes they were looking for a woman's name, and some staff member mentioned that 'Zelda' was a famous American woman in the 20's, and Miyamoto basically said, "Sounds like a cool name! Good enough!"
I'd

I would also ask that the same random voodoo that brought Dawn into the show also erase her from the timeline again. But then she would probably show up again just to whine, and bring Connor with her from the didn't-happen-verse. "Oh, you all just love how I was erased, because it's such a nightmare to spend any time

Nazgul: "No, wait! I meant that statement in a general, 'mankind' sense! It's not like a woman can kill me, either! I support your ability to not kill me! I'm not…oh, crap, my helmet is crumpling…please, just let it be known that the Witch King wasn't a sexiiiiissssst…."

Prediction: whoever is in the Iron Mask is a woman, and the reveal will go down along the lines of, "We saved HIM, but we have no idea who this MAN is!"
"That's because I'm not a man…" *sweeps off helmet and shakes out long, luxurious hair with a sultry grin.
Also, it's Laurel Lance for some some reason.
