UPDATED: The CW Planning a ‘Flash’ TV Series to Spin off from ‘Arrow’
August 1, 2013 1:40 pm Its sits somewhere between Smallville and Alphas (please tell you you've seen Alphas).
I don't like Smallville, but I liked Alphas.
It has its typical cheesy moments, and the obligatory emo scenes. But it gets better as the season goes along, and the real fun I had with it was trying to catch all the DCU references, or getting a kick out of how they adapted DC characters for the show. Like, Roy Harper doesn't have arrows or a red hood outfit, but he does run around in a red hoodie sweatshirt anytime you see him. lol. And, seriously, its a TV show with DEATHSTROKE, THE ROYAL FLUSH GANG, HUNTRESS, DEAD-SHOT... and even their own version of BLACKHAWKS! That's why I watch the show.
I will say this though... if you're the kind of comic fan thats a stickler for wanting to see the page on the screen... the kind of fan that hates Dark Knight and hates Walking Dead TV and hates Xmen films because none of them follow the comics properly and to a T, then Arrow will be just another thing to hate on.

August 1, 2013 1:30 pm Funny... but Johns announced that everything you know about Barry Allen, from costume to powers to hero-name, will all be a part of the TV series.
Actually try reading the Hollywood Reporter source link above... seriously.

Contribution Versus Caterwauling: How Nerds Communicate
June 26, 2013 3:00 pm I do agree with most of what you're stating here (and have no problems at all admitting that sometimes I've been on the 'wrong' side of making horrible comments), but this one little statement really bugged me to no end:
"A person may have read every Superman comic ever written, and love the character fiercely, but that doesn’t necessarily make them an expert in how to tell a Superman story, via comic, movie, or even in a review of that movie."
Amazing. You know, the worst movies that you personally hate were... get this... written by a professional, more than likely with a film studies or script-writing degree? Unitl I see films and TV shows produced by scripts you all wrote, any degrees in screen writing is only a piece of paper between you and the so-called 'unqualified' fans.

‘The Wolverine’ International Trailer Spells Everything Out for You
June 13, 2013 4:00 pm I would be chomping at the bit had he followed through. Huge let down that he didn't.

Trailer: ‘300: Rise of an Empire’ Still a Thing, We Guess
June 13, 2013 3:58 pm Even the comic its based on was a cash-grab by Miller. So sorry for cynicism, but I'd rather be proven wrong than happily clap my hands and drool at every little thing.

Top 5: Films DC Should Do Next After ‘Man of Steel’
June 11, 2013 2:25 pm Yeah, I don't get hating on the actor for a unbelievably horrible script.
All the acting in Phantom Menace sucks... no one seems to be blaming Natalie Portman for it. We all know that's all George Lucas being a bad director.
Ditto for GL. Bad script. Bad directing.

TRAILER: ‘Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox’
May 28, 2013 10:35 am That's like a Star Wars fan asking if Trekkies are sick of transporters and Klingons.

Quicksilver to Appear in BOTH ‘Marvel’s The Avengers 2’ AND ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’?
May 24, 2013 12:33 pm Since you don't care what I say, you won't mind if I say how lame it is that Superman's greatest nemesis in Superman Returns was an island of crystal rocks?
F*** Bryan Singer. Xmen 1, Xmen 2 and it ends there. Get rid of him.
