I'd be more satisfied with this news, if it didn't mean that a) they'll just reboot Terminator *again* in a few years, and b) that stupid Baywatch movie still really does exist.

- They really need to re-establish Oliver as an archery and fighting master - seeing him AND Thea get taken out by Anarky at the same time was just… ugh. This is the same guy who killed Ra's al Ghul, right? The writers really need to brainstorm more ways to involve the man's bow & arrow in the show, period. All he…

So some people came up with more complex narratives for characters that are the blankest of blank slates imaginable, aside from some crude racial stereotypes. …okay?

It was a summer blockbuster featuring completely unknown characters, including a talking raccoon and a talking tree.

Only thing the games did was "stripper-fy" the outfit (and for all I know, the comics did it first and they just took their lead). The actual character is 100% Harley - Brooklyn accent, obsessed with her "Mistah J", and all.

I've already pointed this out in a couple of other comments, but it really can't be stressed enough that Zoom already knows who the Flash is. He beat the shit out of Barry, paraded him in front of Team Flash, then casually ripped off Barry's cowl to reveal his face, while taunting Harry.

I sincerely hope she's not gone from the show yet, and this is just a fake-out before she learns the truth. It'll be a monumental waste of a likable character, otherwise.

And there's also the part where ZOOM ALREADY KNOWS WHO HE IS! Did the writers not remember the part where Zoom beat Barry silly, then took him to Barry's secret lair (which he also knew the location of), then casually removed his mask (hood? helmet? cowl?) in front of Team Flash?

He sounded like a serial killer or something when he uttered that line, but she seemed fine with it.

A few plot contrivances/cheats drove me nuts tonight, more than usual:

She's African-American, and it's curious that the article didn't note this fact.

The Academy doesn't just need a diversity of race or gender - it needs a diversity of viewpoints in general. The fact that a film like Mad Max is generally acknowledged to have no chance of winning something like Best Picture, specifically because of how the Academy tends to view such pictures, is a problem.

I suspect the four-fold increase in traffic for Playboy has more to do with a) suddenly opening itself to a massive new demographic by going PG-13, and b) an influx of people checking out Playboy for the first time in forever, because it was all over the news recently, due to this decision.

I need to hear all about the problematic racial or gender politics on the show, in several paragraph-long dissertations, based on assumptions about the show's narrative that will later be demonstrated to be wrong.

I'm going to give this show a shot either way, but it always felt like an over-reach by DC/CW, from the moment it was announced. Like, they took a look at the character rosters on Flash and Arrow, and desperately tried to figure out who they could scrape together to create a third show.

The marketing campaign for this movie has been pretty brilliant the last few weeks.

Yes, but empty snark is more fun than actually being accurate. It's closer to "The Last Samurai", than "Dances With Wolves".

I always wondered why any person in their right mind would choose to have their case handled on a TV kangaroo court while being publicly humiliated by some sassy judge, in a manner that would never ever happen in a real court - now I know. Because even if they lose, they win.

Kind of a shame that The Room is going to make the jump from grassroots midnight screenings with people throwing spoons, to an effing James Franco movie.

Turning "Olicity" into an actual thing on the show, was utterly disastrous for Felicity's character, and no help to Oliver's either. It was the beginning of non-stop cryface Felicity (which has gratefully been toned down this season), and it also injected some incredibly aggravating soap opera drama into the show.
