They had a guy dying they were trying to stabilize and a ship that was being damaged. And they'd never worked together before.
Not all the time.
Yet Agents of Shield hooked you? Makes no sense.
Always knew we'd fall to Druckmann's reign sooner or later.

You're kidding right? Nowhere above did I say it hooked me lol. I said season one, from what I watched was awful. But season two was better than any of the shows I had seen on the CW in terms of acting and writing. I also said it was pretty much my bottom line. How did bottom line get conflated with hooked?
It is, and I wonder why anyone thought that was a good thing. Even their movies are at their best when they go for fun like Guardians or Avengers. Might be one of the shows I drop later this year. Want to really limit my week to week shows.
I liked the pilot, without loving it. It was actually slow at times, but they absolutely had to explain everything again. I love the whole time travel concept, which can bring us to some cool places every week.
Heatwave has seriously grown on me with this episode alone. White Canary is still one of my favorites in the Arrowverse, and Atom's suit continues to be baller. I also really like the Time Master guy. Firestorm is alright but they need to show more of him (them).
But for the love of this show, please replace Captain Cold, Hawkguy and Hawkgirl, preferably with Constantine, Jonah Hex and Vixen. Actually, I will cut him some slack for once, and say that Cold was alright this episode.

Replace Cold? Let's not be silly here
Captain Cold is in the Top 3 of best Arrow/Flash characters, wtf am I reading.
Wentworth Miller plays the shit out of that character.
Yep Captain Cold is awesome. Glad where getting more of him through this show.
This gif already got a use haha.
If Miller is playing the character as requested by the source material, then more power to that. That's wonderful. I just think the character itself never aligned with me. I don't like his ice cold (no pun intended) and serious expression.
Hearing Andrew Kreisberg talk about how there could of been a Booster Gold tv show really bummed me out.

Cold is great. He just loves being a badguy and completely hams it up. If you watch The Flash, in his first appearance he isn't actually super hammy. He's just a jewel thief. Then he gets the cold gun and realizes he can be a "Super" Villain and goes all in on it. He intentionally hams it up to play the part, even with lines like "you should have known, I'm a badguy". He's an actor playing a character playing a character. It's pretty good once you realize that. He just loves being bad, loves saying the puns, loves punking Flash. Even in this show already his main goal is to steal shit throughout time. He just loves being bad. He's not guy who wants the world to end, he just wants to enjoy himself.
What I like about the character though is that the show has made it very apparent that it's not just Miller as an actor putting this on,but it's actually Snart himself hamming it up.
He ENJOYS doing this. He LOVES playing a "super villain". Not just a little idiot bank robber, a proper comic book SUPER villain. With a COLD GUN.
But sometimes, like with his sister or during serious times,you can see that he is a normal, actually pretty sensible guy, who happens to be a pretty bad apple.
Fuck an elemental approach. Cold is better as a human. A human that's beaten Flash more than any meta. Villains of the week come and go but Captain Cold is forever.

I noticed that Amell is in great shape.

Heat Wave isn't a Doctor or android though?

Agree completely, he is probably the funniest character on the show, and considering they have sisco that says something.
For example with the gif I posted a couple of posts ago, i like to imagine that Snart broke into the house and then proceeded to think about the most overly dramatic way he could reveal himself and then sat there giddy as a school kid waiting for Barry to arrive

I thought the same thing. The man had all the time in the world to grab whichever mug he wanted. he grabbed that one. AND HE HAD A LINE ABOUT MARSHMELLOWS PREPARED. How can you NOT love this guy?
Let me have this. I need it.
Merging him with Hath-Set and the Hawks old origins was a weird choice.
Gotta add those personal stakes with the villain, just like the first seasons of Flash, Arrow and Supergirl.

Same...and Cold is awesome,snarky,those beady eyes,that smirk,almost Deadpool like in that sense,great acting by the ex Prison Break guy.
I hope hey undo that, have Savage correct them when they say he was just an Egyptian priest.
Honestly, it was on SyFy. Let's be glad we didn't get it. And there might still be a chance: http://screenrant.com/the-flash-tv-show-booster-gold/

I'm hoping Savage was waiting for those meteors to get a power up but what happened with Carter and Kendra messed up his plans and it affected them instead along with binding them and now he has to kill them over and over again to take it.
Simple enough yes?

Na he was just a salty motherfucker

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
This was a terrible pilot
CW pls?
CW pls?
I don't know why I didn't realize this but Rip outed everyone's identity to Heatwave and Captain Cold. Granted Cold and possibly Heatwave by association wouldn't take advantage of the knowledge. It's just that Rip just allowed that to happen from the very started even with the possibility some could have turned him down.
Cold knows who Barry is. He could easily find the others through association.
Have him still be a caveman and say he just assumed the role of Hath-Set during Egyptian times
I'm already warming up to the banter between Jax and Stein. They were kind of dull in their intro ep, but it's shaping up much better.
The Hawks are the real low point here... particularly Hawkman.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
It's really weird how divisive the pilot is.
It's like the perfect extension of the Flash, just without the family drama at the center.

I don't remember one moment of greatness.
Apparently there is no in between anymore. Not everything has to blow people away. The pilot for The Flash was pretty mediocre, and this is a 2 part pilot.
