'Safe'
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.
I think a promo airs on tv and a trailer airs in a movie theatre. It is this darn internet thing that is confusing!
Well, but we're taking about only TV shows, which is why I wondered what the difference was between a promo and a trailer. (I also think of trailers as being for movies, not TV.)
I was thinking of promos as previews of episodes for a currently airing series, while a trailer is for a series that is not yet on the air. I know the vocabulary is blurry for TV.
I'm amused that I even have an opinion (sort of) about this issue.
Promos and teasers = tv
Trailers and teasers = movie
"Previews" can be for both.
The entertainment industry needs to get their taxonomy in order!
Oh, wait, casting of existing characters is spoilery.
Okay, white font it is until someone tells me different.
Something in the Arrow finale occurred to me while watching the Legends promo. The promo shows Sara Lance being pulled out of the Lazarus Pit, which might explain while Nyssa is so (relatively) docile in the presence of the new Ra's. She probably traded her fealty for Sara's life.
Another idle thought — I wonder how long Quentin will be kept in the dark about Sara being alive again.
Something in the Arrow finale occurred to me while watching the Legends promo.
I also wondered if part of the bargain Ollie made with Malcolm was to use the Lazarus Pit to bring Sara back, as well as to not destroy Starling City.
Poor, Quentin. His daughters really keep putting him through the emotional wringer.
I also wondered if part of the bargain Ollie made with Malcolm was
I was thinking that the arrows Malcolm supplied to Thea just made Sara *mostly dead* .
I can see it now...
Sara: Why won't my arms move?
Malcolm: You've been mostly dead all year.
Oliver: We had Miracle Max make a pill to bring you back.
Sara: Who are you? Are we enemies? Why am I naked? Where's Nyssa?
Oliver: One: Sara. Two: Ratings, and three: I married Nyssa.
Malcolm: You just wiggled your middle finger! That's wonderful!
Sara: I've always been a quick healer.
I think part of the problem with Barry's maturity is because due to Eobard Thawne, Barry acquired his powers six years earlier than he had before Eobard taking over Wells' form.
I dunno, I was thinking that Thea was the one that was mostly dead when she went into the pit. It wasn't just the arrows that killed Sara. She also fell off a building… and was buried… and was buried.
What I'm more interested in is what the aftereffects will be for Sara. Malcolm warned that people change when they come out of the pit, but Thea recovered really quickly, maybe because she was still only mostly dead when she went in. Maybe the aftereffects get worse the longer one is dead before going in.
I believe that's the way the pits work in the comics, DX.
