Eivion Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I'm torn. I want to watch the new episode due to Livewire, but I really don't want to skip ahead missing the story and character developments from the episode they didn't air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 From watching, it looks like they only really did one bit of stuff that is confusing at first, but you can fill in how it happened. No idea if they did anything with the unaired episode with Crenshaw or not. I am wondering if they have Crenshaw go full on Cyborg Superman toward the end of the season if he's the Big Bad and not Astra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 The episode that was originally to air this week will air next week, per the "Next Week on Supergirl" promo being the same one from last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Dragon Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Crank Crenshaw, Cyborg Superman. Tbh if it gives me Director Bones I'm in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 I am still watching Gotham and I enjoy watching Riddler complete his turn to the darkside. Hoping they wrap up the Galavan story soon. I really enjoyed Grodd getting extended screen time this week. I don't know why but I am not feeling the chemistry between Barry and his new cop girlfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I'll probably wait until Monday to watch Supergirl in the correct order. Dark Riddler is fun and I still got 2 episodes to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I'm thinking I will wait as well. Crank Crenshaw, Cyborg Superman.Tbh if it gives me Director Bones I'm in. This is honestly what I want the most from this show at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Dug the shot of Gorilla City, Was meh about everything else in the ep. Really hated Henry showing up as a deus ex machina life coach. For one thing, my first thought was "How'd Iris find him?" Barry seemed to not know that his dad was out camping, so it seems unlikely Henry told the Wests. And, really, after a couple decades in prison, you can either (a) spend time with the son who always believed in you and worked tirelessly to exonerate you, or ( B ) go camping. Gee, that's a real "Father of the Year" choice right there. Not that it's a bad character choice, but they could have framed this so much better. It'd make a lot more sense if they had spent a couple of episodes showing Henry trying and failing to adjust to city life, then leaving town. The writing this season has been kinda bland, especially when it comes to character bits. Also, was there a reason everyone expected the Wells switcheroo to work? Wouldn't a telepathic gorilla just read Harry 2's mind and realize he wasn't "Father"? The bit about the rifts not deposting you in the same geographic location on other earths makes me think the singularities are either manmade or at least being manipulated by someone? Harry? Although how they know that Gorilla City is not in the same geographic location on Earth 2 is beyond me. Did someone toss an Earth 2 atlas through the rift? I guess maybe Harry has thoroughly compared Earth 1 and 2 geography? Edit: Thinking about it, the plotting was good this ep (aside from Henry). Grodd wanting someone to make more sentient gorillas so he wouldn't be alone was a good take on the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Yeah, according to a recap, that's what the ear plugs were for. I was answering email during the eps. Guess I missed it when they mentioned that. "Vibing" used as a verb can't be dropped soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Also the rifts being in different geographic areas for Earth 2/1 is mainly down to all the Earth 1 breaches being in Central City, while on Earth 2 they span the globe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raziel Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 CW.com does it for free. If you use an AdBlock, turn it off just to load in the video, then you can turn it back on. You'll just get the CW show ads and not regular ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy Me a Burrito Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Somebody directed the hell out of the fight scenes on ARROW tonight. Interestingly enough, the director of tonight's episode as James Bamford. This was his first directing credit, but he's been a stuntman/stunt coordinator for years. He probably just innately knows how to shoot fight scenes well by now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 They really don't sell Barry being in any real physical danger at all do they? Do the mental barriers stuff fine, possibly to a point of overdoing it."I can't see!""No, wait, its back" "I can't feel my legs!""No, wait, all good" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Dragon Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Tbh if an organization for people with disabilities comes at Flash for insensitivity, it'll have deserved it. Also they need to stop using his healing like he's Wolverine. It's a Geoff Johns thing, which is why but ugh. Recovering from wounds where the shock kills you more than the damage because you heal faster than the shock can hit you? Fine. Nothing about healing faster would fix a broken back or any other injury that doesnt heal naturally with time. I just...Barry shouldn't be Wolverine. But we're too far down that rabbit hole now to stop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I don't mind the accelerated healing. It opens up a can of worms if you think too hard about it, but so do a lot of other things in comic books. But being able to "heal" a crippling spinal cord injury at all was a little much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably just innately knows how to shoot fight scenes well by now. I was actually coming here to comment on exactly that. That was damn near Daredevil quality last night with the fight scenes. Please, keep Bamford on to choreograph the fights if nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Mar Alonso Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I'm catching up on Supergirl, and I've generally enjoyed it. Am I daft to think that Hank Henshaw is not going evil cyborg, but is this universe's Martian Manhunter? His, "I had a family, once," red eyes, possible telepathy when he realized Alex was in the lab... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
