The Scarlotti/May fight was fucking awesome, except for the part where I'm pretty sure the chain was digitally put in. It seemed to be flailing around a lot in some sort-of unbelievable ways.

So relieved they aren't going to simple, dumb route with a Ward redemption arc. I really thought this week was going to be the stereotypical "let Ward out of his cell so he can help the good guys and begin to prove he has changed!" episode, based on the sneak peek at the end of last week. Instead, they've made him a…

Feige said at the announcement something about being introduced to the Inhumans "sooner than you think", which I think actually confirms that they will factor into Skye/her dad

But aside from that - NOTHING.

45 minutes of battle is fine, so long as it's not just 45 minutes of action schlock. You can still have story development and character development in the middle of a war, as Jackson himself demonstrated in the LOTR films.

I love Arrow, but it has stumbled out of the gate a bit so far. I thought that season premiere was not that great.

Yeah, that's true - though again, it's always implied that Reese was conflicted about what he was doing in the CIA, and only wanted to take out terrorists. Shaw felt nothing, but again - she assumed she was taking out bad guys. Does Finch even know about the drug dealer Fusco killed? Pretty sure that story was in a…

Same here, except I've only been on the wagon for two weeks. Already watched all of the episodes in that time. This show is amazing.

Any time Finch starts philosophizing about the Machine, I'm entranced. I also really love his evolving relationship with Root, though I felt it was a little premature for him to use a word like "friend" to describe her. Finch has a strong moral compass, and Root has not only kidnapped him twice - she has murdered…

This show has been the most consistent comic book show so far this fall. There, I said it. Still early, but never thought you'd read those words, eh?

I thought Fitz and Simmons got off to a clumsy start last season, but by the end, I really liked both of them.

He deactivated it (or took it off? I can't remember exactly), after he was done threatening her.

Time has only slowed down for the viewers. "Standing still" for a few seconds in those scenes, is more like some microscopic fraction of a second in the real world.

I'd like them to at least be INTERNALLY consistent. Learning to get faster and faster is one thing, or learning to harness it in new ways (such as the inevitable episode where he vibrates through a wall or something) is one thing. Showing him essentially having a conversation with himself while time is almost still,…

Was wondering if he was maybe Metron, until he stabbed Stagg last week.

That would actually be super interesting, and would make for some interesting philosophical ideas - can you take someone out for what you know they become, and not what they are?

"Fire and Ice" is also an actual common reference phrase for two disparate personalities, as opposed to Gotham, which just goes "Duhhhh, VENOM. WE SAID VENOM. DO YOU LOVE US NOW? NIGMA LIKES RIDDLES. COBBLEPOT IS CALLED PENGUIN BECAUSE OF SOME VERY TENUOUS SHIT ABOUT HIS SHUFFLING GAIT. HE BECOMES PENGUIN. PLEASE…

Barry's powers on the show have been somewhat… inconsistent… so far. So he can essentially stop time to confess his feelings to Iris, or to investigate the scene of a crime, but he got a good old fashioned beatdown by Multiplex last week on two occasions?

Still really annoyed that they essentially sacrificed Sara in order to prop up Laurel as a character. Caity Lotz was great enough that I was really starting to hold out hope that they'd break canon and write off Laurel ever being Black Canary.

You seem to be labouring under the impression that "star" or "lead" actor is the same as "popular", or "breakout character."
