    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    We'll wasn't so much as a war as just the head of marvel and largest shareholder of Marvel stocks was running things his way, Feige got lucky to get moved to Disney and Iger and away from Perlmutter. If Johns can do what he's done with DC tv and Berlanti and repeat that success to the movie side...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    There really isn't a Feige to just grab out of the hat and throw in there to take over, Warners is a very different movie company then say Disney. That said Berg knows the executive side of stuff and while Geoff is hit or miss with his writing he really cares about the characters. This is better...

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    It's comic books, they can adjust race, gender and personality to suit the needs of story. If Sucide Squad is enjoyable, the story works and I don't feel my $10 was wasted, then good for DC/Warner Bros. Slavish devotion to the " Comic books" only goes so far. But to each their own.

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    I think the trailer looks great, complain the movie is to grim dark, they lighten it up, too campy. Nothing makes nerds happy!

    Arrow

    Sure more than Katie, problem is they screwed up with Caity, they should have just kept her as Canary and kept Katie as district attorney or something along those lines.

    Arrow

    There were rumors floating around that Katie and Stephen didn't get along, I'm assuming that's part of the issue. I like Katie plenty but honestly the chemistry was never there, like it was with Caity, when she was on the show. Who knows though, just hoping if it's real it's permanent.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    I like it about the same, most of my gripes were minor other than Lex being not Lex,maybe he would have done a better job if Synder had directed him better, he'll the guy off Smallville would worked. Color me excited for WW and Affleck didn't do a bad job and his action Bat scenes were heads...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    At the end of the year I'm sure BVS is going to make it's money, between domestic, international and all the toys, somehow it will do just fine. Will it do Marvel money probably not but the amount of folks who want this to fail is beyond me.

    Arrow

    Rumor floating around that Katie/black canary is on the outs with Amell and that she's the one dying and possibly moving felicity to legends show next season. Who knows though ! Oh hell it's April 1st so who knows, same guy said the young lawyer from suits is going to be the Alan Scott GL...

    Supergirl

    Pretty sure it gets the best ratings of the new CBS shows and the head of CBS said he was going to renew 5 of the new shows that started this season. The writing is fine it's just not to the target male audience of 18-35, my wife loves it and our 5 year old likes it, I enjoy it more than Arrow...

    The Magicians

    I've already forgotten most of the book, so no book to show expectations for me. I'm putting the Martin as the beast ticket in, seems to make the most sense so far. Need more Margo too, how long is her spring break vacation going to last, sheesh.

    The Magicians

    Ya, it's crap but the two lead females are pretty hot, not really sure what to make of the show, the movie version was much better but that's not saying a lot.

    Into the Badlands

    +1 and rest in peace good old WPIX, had the best weekend mix of bad movies in the 70's and 80's

    The Magicians

    Saddest part of the show so far , really was hoping to see more of Esme. I burned through the first book and then sorta binged watched the past 5 episodes and it's one of the rare shows that far exceeds the book, now I haven't read any of the others but I felt the first was a big meh, so I'll...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Heh I forgot about that, one of the first comic stuff I really read back in the late 70's was Kirby's New Gods when he came back to DC, they had the 3 series that ran about a year or two, then Kirby went back to Marvel. I would have loved a more modern take out of the general DC continuity but...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Some good Big Barda trivia, Lannie Kazan probably most famous for big fat Greek wedding and Zohan was the original model who inspired Kirby to draw her that way, granted she's in her mid 70's now but the mid 60's playboy spread must have really inspired Kirby. Poor New Gods, DC's never known...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Anyone have some insights on the Black Mage class and the Bard class, those are the two I'm leaning towards and my only experience with bards is some screwing around with them in EQ, I've never really played a Mage glass cannon class in any mmo.

    Anyone playing on a PS4/3 using a keyboard in conjunction with the controller? Does it work pretty well? Using the controller to chat is way to slow.

    The Shannara Chronicles

    I'm three in and pretty torn at this point, always was a fan of Brooks and the Shannara series. It's basically a MTV version so I'll just have to live with it but I'm having a hard time with Manu as Allanon, loved him in Spartacus and Arrow but he's just not doing it for me as the Druid and...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Sounds good , I grabbed archer but since I'm only 17 really wanted to get some more levels before I got into lvl'ing another class. I'm basically ignoring tradeskills for now. I rd ever being a redmage/whitemage in the original game, did they just get rid of the redmage?

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Grabbed the ps4 version for myself and a PS3 version of the base game for my wife, so just been playing this weekend. Is there a pretty good tutorial site or video that explains game mechanics and such. We've never played MMO's on consoles unless you count Destiny. We both played the original FF...

    Supergirl

    I think as a character Supergirl is much more tied to Supes then GA was to Batman, I'd almost say Supergirl is a bit of a sidekick that's evolved but will always be tied to where it originally came from. That said I think the audience for Supergirl is very different than what the audience is...

    Supergirl

    I'm a DC comic fan, though not insane like Lyrical but I agree with Vvoid, this is written for a more general appeal, especially towards female viewers. I'm pretty anti-continuity though, too many times what happened in the past bogs down an otherwise great storyline. I think they are trying to...

    Supergirl

    Hard to say, the comic canon on Supergirl is all over the place, though in this show it was bound to happen, they play Cat as a no nonsense type. Last two episodes have been fantastic.

    Orla was Walter's wife in Fringe, still looks good as ever.

    Good stuff is what it means, I really wonder if they are going to open the floodgates on characters like Arrow and Flash have done.

    Don't think it matters much since Playboy announced the nudes were ending unless it's going to be the last nude issue.

    The Flash

    That may have been the best episode so far of either series. Boy I sure do love the Hawks. I had a crazy thought , if Barrowman didn't end up as Malcolm, he would make a great Rip Hunter.

    Marvel's Jessica Jones

    So going to use terms I'm familiar with, your basic meta human and written in an darker vertigo comics type of series? I've got 3 episodes to go and while it's good I liked DD much more for Marvel stuff. I thought Luke Cage was good but was hoping to see some reference to Ironfist but I'm...

    Marvel's Jessica Jones

    Going to be honest here, I'm not a Marvel guy and I had only heard of Jessica Jones from the old Marvel Max comics, so my investment in the character is next to nothing. Halfway through so far and I enjoyed Daredevil quite a bit more but maybe that's because I read the Miller arc back in the...

    Astonished there is no thread on this one, The Rock, Zac Efron, Alexandra Daddario and of course Pamela Anderson. I think shooting starts early spring.

    Into the Badlands

    Fight choreography was very reminiscent of Brotherhood of the Wolf so that was a plus, story was ok though it seemed pretty standard but it all looked good. Had no clue it was produced by the Smallville guys, which I think are doing Elfstones of Shannara as well. I'll keep watching, kept me...

    She had a fantastic scene in Drive Angry with Nic Cage, great grindhouse type of trash film and the scene with Charlotte Ross is a winner.

    Supergirl

    It's plenty many shows survive with less then that, though for a "superhero" show it's a bit of uncharted waters, CW ratings aside you have really just Gotham and Agents of Shield and so far Supergirls numbers line up with the latter. Though I don't watch AOS I have no idea how long a leash ABC...

    Supergirl

    Eh, Agents of Shiel premiered with less viewers and had the same drop in the second episode and seemed to stabilize around 7m for season one, Gotham barely broke 8m for the premier and ended up with 6m-ish for the season. I'd say it's a bit early to worry about numbers till they add all the DVR...

    Ok trying to make sense of coming back, think last time I played was close to 3 years ago and just had to call up to get my pw reset. I've got the collectors edition with the security key. So my questions should I even bother with the security key? Do I need to resub to get access to the new...
