'War Stories'


Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You with your logic.

I just looked up Jim Corrigan, 'cause it was nagging at me: he was The Spectre in the comics, with a brief connection to Constantine. I'm not liking it.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It's kind of weird that they made him a New Orleans cop rather than NYC, but I suppose giving him a present day origin rather than a WWII-era one opens the door for other changes.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hrm. NBC Pumps the Brakes on Constantine, Will Halt Production After 13 Episodes. But it's not canceled and it could still be renewed.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Pumps?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I really wish they would team up with the BBC or Sky or someone, and move the production to the UK.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Pumps?

What doesn't make sense about that word?

I'm watching reruns of Dark Angel and really enjoying it. Either it's better than I remember or I've been out of work way too long.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Apparently they raffled some tickets for a bunch of fans and hosted a screening for The Flash/Arrow crossover (both hours) last Saturday in Los Angeles. I guess it was to spread positive words-of-mouth? But apparently folks attending the screening all had to sign a non-disclosure agreement, so there are no real plot details out there.

I didn't know this was a thing TV shows do now! I mean, sure, screen pilots for SDCC, but just to do a random screening (OK, it's being sold as an "event") in the middle of the season? I call shenanigans! Mostly because I am bitter that there are people who have already seen the damn eps and I have to wait another week and a half.

ETA: some photos of the actors from the event: [link]

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Dark Angel got remarkably better in its second season, not in the least because of Baby!Jensen Ackles, but also in better writing and characterization because of an improved creative team. I'm actually kind of bitter we didn't get a third season.
