Perfect Xero

I know that the general theory is that Rey is Luke's daughter, but I think that Finn might be Luke's son. He is a little short for a storm trooper.

I'd given up reading comics for a few years but a friend got me to start reading again. For the first time in my life, my favorite comic is Doctor Strange. I'm also enjoying the Vader Down Star Wars stuff. All the stuff with the X-Men and the Inhumans is confusing the heck out of me.

Due to the distances we're dealing with and the speed of light "cloaking" wouldn't actually have any effect for years, decades, centuries, millennia, ect ... after such a project was completed depending on where the potential observer was located. Even in comic book science land, I'd have to think that a planet wide cloaking field would be beyond expensive to construct, require the cooperation of nations all over the Earth, and require a ludicrous amount of power to keep running. In addition Guardians of the Galaxy makes it pretty clear is that everyone in the galaxy at large already seems to be aware of Earth. the Nova Corps, the Kree, Thanos, the Ravagers, Asgard, ect ... all clearly know about Earth/Terra and, in most cases have already visited. It's not really a situation where the cat can be put back in the bag at this point.

Lex is just so very, very awful in the trailers. I wasn't super interested in this movie before because I really have no desire to see Superman and Batman fight each other (and I didn't like the dour, no bright colors or fun allowed, take on Superman in Man Of Steel), but would have still gone to see it in the theaters, but then Lex starts talking and ruins everything for me. Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman are my 3 favorite DC characters, they're all going to be in a movie together, and yet I have no desire to actually see the movie thanks to Jesse Eisenberg.

Just from the trailers it seems that Bucky is still killing people, or has been framed for a new killing. So they want to bring him in, because, you know, a dangerous enhanced human assassin going around murdering people is bad, and Steve isn't going to let them.

Also, my biggest disappointment with this movie is that Leia, apparently, never became a Jedi Knight, I've been wanting to see her as a live action Jedi since RotJ and thought that the "strong in my family" teaser trailer was implying that we'd see her as a Jedi in this one.

Han made the exact same offer to Luke in A New Hope.

Granted, I think it was pretty dumb that they didn't at least Change Luke's sname, but Owen was Anakin's step-brother that he barely met once at one of the most painful moments of his life, I really don't think he'd drop by to visit and make awkward small talk. I also don't think he'd visit his mother's grave after what he'd become.

My personal take is that Kylo resents Han, not for being a hero, but because Han isn't a powerful force sensitive. I think that Ben, named after a great Jedi Knight, grandson of the "chosen one", Nephew of the most powerful Jedi ever, son of a great hero who is believed to have similar potential in the force to Luke grew up thinking that he was going to be a similarly powerful Jedi, then he went to start his training and realized that he wasn't going to be the most amazing Jedi who ever lived. So he looked for someone to blame and settled on his non-force sensitive father as an easy scapegoat to explain why he isn't as strong in the force as he thinks he should be.

I don't think that Cat should know, either I'm supposed to buy that Cat Grant of all people is much smarter than Perry White and Lois Lane or I'm supposed to believe that Kara is so much worse at keeping her ID hidden than Clark that she got figured out in a couple of months by a person who care barely be bothered to say her name correctly? Neither of those works for me.

I guess that depends on how you define "irony" in this. To me this was just people who celebrate Christmas posing for a Christmas themed picture to show their friends. I didn't get the sense that they were mocking the guy dressed as Santa or the idea of being excited about Christmas.

I thought they were supposed to be a couple of years older than that? Either way, I think to their thought process it's less acting like little girls, and more acting like the older teenage girls who do that sort of thing on social media.

I don't think it's ironic as much as "I want a picture to show everyone how cute and fun I am on Instagram."

I don't think that Astra is Kara's mother, I think the relationship is what she said, she's an aunt who doesn't (can't) have children of her own and loved her niece as much as if she was her own child. Being reminded that she wasn't her mother was also just that, Allura reminding Astra of her place. The first time they used the training room Alex said it was set at 30% (or something), which is apparently the level at which Kara isn't harmed but she's reduced to normal human strength/durability so she can train. Astra's containment cell thing does have the same green kryptonite lights all around the top and bottom shining on her.

The great mystery of this show for me is whether Barry is good at sports or not. They've made reference to Barry being good at sports a few times, showed him being good a hockey (and, briefly, wrestling), but then show him as being delusional and comically inept at basketball, not even knowing that the rim he was dunking on wasn't regulation (and then they show a home video of Real!Barry and his friends running an impressive tip drill and finishing with a dunk on a regulation height rim.

I think that she's being pushed close to her limits mentally for the first time in her life, she doesn't want to expend more time and mental energy on something competitive like a chess club or academic team. He's been a quick and easy distraction for her and requires the absolute minimum of effort on her part to impress.

I think the entire point of the Reuben thing is that Alex has been having academic issues/not feeling like she's the smartest among her peers for the first time in her life now that she's at college and has been using Reuben as an easy distraction because he's a link back to high school where she was clearly the smartest and best student.

As I recall that guy was actively trying to kill Gordon at the time, Gordon was trying to get out of there and guy pursued him and was shooting at him. He's very clearly a criminal and he's certainly dangerously compromised by his association with Oswald and, now (to a lesser extent) Nygma and Selina. But, no, I don't consider him a villain within the context of the hellhole that is Gotham City unless he starts going after innocent people. Right now he's ... tarnished much like Harvey was at the start of the series.

Because he murdered a billionaire serial killer/super ninja/cult leader who was mayor of the city and had already managed to beat the system once?

They actually went up to a 2.1 in the demo, their best ratings in over a month.

The plan didn't call for standing in the middle of a street with no cover and yelling out a warning that you're coming to kill everyone, so they left Zsasz out.

Clark trusted the Danvers enough to allow Dean Cain to research him and to raise his only living relative, whether Clark and Kara are known to be cousins or not, I think there's a decent chance that the Danvers were in on the secret ID.

Personally I was hoping that game night meant that the three of them get together and play D&D (or Mutants & Masterminds). It's entirely possible that no one outside of the DEO even knows about Kryptonite. Neither Kara nor he aunt had any idea what it was when the DEO first used it against them Are the Clark Kent and Kara Danvers identities 'out' as cousins? If so it'd be an easy cover for Winn to say, "... wrote a bunch of stories about him." The surprising thing about that scene was that Lucy seemed to have absolutely no interest as to why "Your cousin" was an easy clue for Superman.

I don't think Gordon was using his service weapon, rather one of Penguin's guns. At least I hope that he and Harvey weren't dumb enough to shoot a bunch of people in a vigilante raid with guns that can be traced back to them. Of course Nygma is, apparently, the only forensics scientists at the GCPD, so it might not matter. I'm not sure what to make of how compromised this version of Gordon is. Two (three, if you Selina) of Batman's future rogues now have pretty serious dirt on Jim. Granted, they don't have evidence other than their word, but it really doesn't match up with most other versions I've seen where Gordon is the one clean cop in Gotham.

Bullock interviewed Ivy "ginger to ginger" to find out where Selina was staying.
