Bustronaut Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I think the Venomesque guy is gonna be a slow burn for the first half of the season while they ramp up to Crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what it seems like, but I had read he was the pre-Crisis bad guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Sorrow Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 So, since Earth 2 bit the dust on Arrow, did Harry Wells and Jesse Quick die? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can believe this to some extent if only because they mentioned dealing with Crisis' aftermath being the big story of the second half for this season. 2 hours ago, JonnyLaw said: So I’m behind on Arrow. What’s the deal with future Team Arrow? Its the team's kids grown up in a dystopian future for Star City. They built it up last season in flash forwards. As Bustronaut mentioned, they are trying to do a spin-off. Personally, I think they are one of the weaker aspects of the show so I'm hoping that doesn't happen. 1 hour ago, Johnny Sorrow said: So, since Earth 2 bit the dust on Arrow, did Harry Wells and Jesse Quick die? I'm guessing no. You got to think Harry and/or Jessie will eventually show up to let them know it happened and that is when shit is going to get real for the Flash crew in the Crisis story.

RandomAct Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 (edited) Besides, they aren't going to kill off the best version of Wells, and a pretty popular character like Jesse without a little more buildup. I don't see anyone getting "Wheeljack'd" here. I keep hearing that Bloodwork is the pre-Crisis bad guy, but not much on who is after. Maybe a "fixed" Godspeed?

There’s a reference to Thaddeus Brown, the pre-Scott after Mr. Miracle. Is the “Destroyed (1986)” a reference to a world we’ve seen/heard destroyed on the show, or is it a cool reference to the original Crisis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 WATCHMEN is off to an interesting start. The politics of it going to piss off a lot of people, first episode was pretty great 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 What are the politics? It looked somewhat anti-cop from the trailer, which is a bold stance I'd appreciate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 @Niners Fan in CT I sought out a review of the first episode and holy cow, I'm 100% onboard going by that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 The show starts off in Tulsa 1921. There's a lot to unpack if I go too into it it's going to spoil what actually happens in the episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 My only concern is Lindelof has a lot of great ideas that go under cooked in his works via his own doing or someone telling him to stfu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I liked the first episode of Watchmen enough, but the soundtrack is fucking banging. It's better than the show itself. This may be the best thing Reznor and Ross have made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) What Niners said. I am on board the Watchmen train for the long haul. First episode fucking ruled. That's how you start shit off. Regina King in the lead and a Rorschach inspired militia is just total bonus. Edited October 21, 2019 by J.T. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) Yeah, I'm all in on Watchmen. Although I'm sure we'll get some backstory on how we got from the end of the book to now. Of course, the entire Adrian scene was confusing, but that's not surprising. Edited October 21, 2019 by Raziel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I don't think it's Veidt. From the casting and look you'd think it's him, so why not say it's him? Feels like a twist is coming with the reveal of who Irons is playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I know there was a paper headline that said Viedt's dead, but that's in his wheelhouse to fake something like that, with the whole Giant Squid thing. Also makes sense that he's still throwing squid storms as a reminder of the interdimentional aliens and all that. Given the previews, that Irons is Ozymandias is a pretty safe bet. It's obvious that the militia has some of its beliefs taken from the printed Rorschach journals, just taken WAAAAY to far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
