You lasted three episodes? Good for you. I couldn't get past the first. That's how unpalatable this show was for me: I couldn't even let its first episode faults slide.

You idiot. You think I'm not used to films with slow pacing? Look, there's slow, and there's total cockblocking. Oh look, you've introduced the bloody star of your show, what do we do? Hold him back again for DRAMA! Drama that, mind you, has zero impact on the narrative!

And Godzilla shows what happens to all that brilliance when backed by a monster budget: either it gets constrained, or it doesn't know what the hell to do with all that money.

Sorority girls and Breaking Bad made the word okay for public consumption.

Gambit? :P

Richard: Dear god no! The older UC stuff has not aged well at all. I was thinking I’d rather go back and watch the Gundam series that took all the best moments of UC Gundam and built a series around them: Gundam SEED.

What should we expect rules-wise? My current group abhores 4th ed, and we're currently running on a homebrew-heavy 3.5 ed mixed with some Pathfinder stuff.

The first one was Hitler against Darth Vader. Lighten up, the show's never been serious.

Or, maybe, just maybe, Bad Wolf is real.

Really? When I heard that they were casting a charmingly self-centered former coke addict to play a charmingly self-centered alcoholic, I was all, "wait, that makes perfect sense!"

We're not asking for Chyna-buff, we're asking for Linda Hamilton-cut:

And it's that mentality that's bred an entire generation of stupid Modern Warfare clones, and gave rise to the brownification of gaming. Just because X sells more units should not be your business driver if you're working in a creative medium, because guess what? You're only trying to emulate X, which has already

He doesn't have to wait; case in point, Skyrim was getting modded from Day One. But if he does want to play a really old game, he has the option of updating its graphics. Like in my case, I really, really liked Arcanum back in the early 2000's, but it was designed for low-resolution monitors. Mods allowed me to play

If they'll be super-smart about it, I'd want the Rogues to be just like in the comics, and form an actual supervillain's union.

When I first saw the wheelchair-bound professor roll in, my initial thought was, "he's gonna end up as Professor Zoom, isn't he?" So I checked the cast list, and lo and behold, Eddie Thawne is the young blond detective, not Wheels McScienceGuy.

Or not. As evidenced by Arrow, the showrunners tend to make the relatives the capes; see Laurel vs Sarah, Tommy vs Malcolm. Even in this 5-minute sneak peek, it's not Mark Mardon who's the Weather Wizard, but his brother. For all we know, Paco and Caitlin won't end up as Vibe and Killer Frost respectively, but

To be fair to CW, they managed to get Arrow up to a level nobody expected, CW or otherwise. So maybe it's time to revise that opinion of yours to just "a crappy copy", period.

Where is that confirmed? Pity, I wanted Dwayne to play Black Adam.

Not a fan of the Suicide Girl look, that robot arm seems to be missing the equivalent of a wrist, and her animation seems clunky.

Named mine German. Take that, Hernandez!
