I don't have an issue with them having overhead or anything - I know there are costs associated with designing these shirts and getting a website up and running and whatnot. I just noticed a lot of fairly vague language about how much of the proceeds from these shirts are going to charity, and I was a) wondering if they post about their donations somewhere that I've missed in searches and/or b) are transparent about how many shirts they've sold, accounted for the money they're keeping and where it's going, etc. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4421130

JJ928 June 17, 2018 Share June 17, 2018 (edited) Even though Candice is co-creator of shethority, and EBR is somewhat (to a much lesser extent) involved, I don’t find them to be inclusive. So far, women of color have been mostly ignored and it’s probably because their members are mostly white. I personally have no interest, also I feel like it may be a space more inviting for younger women (I’m in my 30s not old, but entirely comfortable with myself). I however do have an issue with them seeking $ from fans to run it. The group is made up of several actresses making better wages than most of their audience. Those women should get together and put their own money up for the site. Caity, Candice, Maisie, & Emily these four alone could launch the site. I’ve undertaken larger projects for clients who are not famous and have used their funds. Also, I hate that they ask fans for designs and art, without offering compensation. So I’m not into the shethority thing. I wish CP and EBR weren’t involved but whatever. I do hope they do something good, and bring people some positivity.

It's true, no one has to submit their artwork, and if that's how they want to (or the only way they can) donate to a campaign then that's their choice. On the other hand, I do take issue with people who have the financial means to pay someone a fee soliciting work for free from a group of fans they know will be more than willing to do it. It feels like taking advantage, even though people are voluntarily doing it. And I'd say yes, it is different then someone writing a fanfic prompt. This would be more like SA asking someone to write a fanfic prompt for a book that he's compiling with proceeds going to charity, but his name plastered all over it and the writers are only mentioned once, when he selects the authors who are going to be included. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4421221
doesntworkonwood June 17, 2018 Share June 17, 2018 Shethority has always confused me because it seems like such a vague charity. To me it doesn't seem like it has any specific goals beyond women supporting each other, which sounds pretty wishy washy to me. I don't think that either Candace or Caity have bad intentions, but it seems to me like they came together with a vague idea of 'empowering women' and didn't really do the research to specify just what they mean by that. They're obviously busy women, but running a charity takes time and knowledge that I don't think they have, so it's never going to be a charity that I'd give my money to. I don't donate to Steven's charities either. I haven't done enough research to know if they're reputable, plus I'd rather give my money to charities in the UK (where I live) or charities with links to the UK just because they're charities that I've grown up with and who's work I've physically seen. 2 minutes ago, Mellowyellow said: I'm not a fan of Shethority or SA but to be fair if a fan likes a celebrity and WANTS to do free work for them, is it really that bad?

Is it any different to a fanfic writer writing a prompt for someone they like online. I think it's a bit different. For one Shethority is a 'feminist' charity, and so part of that should be paying women fairly for the work they're doing. It's a bit disingenous to me to say you support women, and then asking them to work for free (even if they agree to it). A person who submitted the work may think that they're doing a good thing, but without full tranparency from the organisation, it's hard to be 100% sure. I don't think it's comparable to a fanfic writer because the fanfic writer does not make any money for writing fanfic, so they're not profiting off of someone else. With Shethority, they're using the images to make money. For certain 100% of the money made is not going to charity. That's not possible because every charity has overheads. If they're not clear on how much is going to charity vs how much is going to overheads (and how much is going to employees), then it's not possible to know if the organisation has profited off of someone elses work. For the record, I'm not saying that Shethority is some nefarious organisation, just that it seems like a badly thought out organisation which means it's difficult to fully grasp the actual work they're doing. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4421227

Yeah, there's value to the work they're asking for, and whoever submits it should be compensated or at least be offered something, whether they want to take it or not. Maybe the people whose work has been selected have received an offer of something after the fact? I can't say.

tv echo June 17, 2018 Share June 17, 2018 (edited) I haven't been following the Batgirl comics, but I noticed this article only because it refers to an implant in Barbara's spine that enables her to walk... Get your first look at Batgirl’s new costume — and her new direction By Meg Downey Jun 15, 2018, 12:37pm EDThttps://www.polygon.com/comics/2018/6/15/17466032/batgirl-new-costume-redesign Quote Barbara Gordon’s world is about to be flipped upside down as a new era dawns for Burnside’s favorite daughter. Complete with a brand new look and an all new creative team made up of writer Mairghread Scott and artists Paul Pelletier and Elena Casagrande, Batgirl is leaving her neighborhood and heading back to Gotham City proper to face down a new — and deeply personal — threat, starting with Batgirl #26 on August 22nd. With a design concept by Sean Gordon Murphy, Babs’ new look is a pretty far cry from the pastel purple moto jacket she’s been wearing since the Batgirl of Burnside soft reboot back in 2015. * * * But it’s not going to be easy — on top Grotesque’s grisly reappearance, Babs suffers what Scott calls a “really traumatic injury” at the start of the arc. “The implant that allows her to walk is shorting out,” she explained, and that’s not all. “But when that happens, [Babs’] is just like, ‘Oh, okay, my legs aren’t working, I can deal with that. It’s fine.’ Because she was Oracle for a long time, you know? She knows how to operate without the chip.” * * * Scott later said that she studied and spoke with wheelchair users about forms of self-defense and martial arts to get an idea of exactly how effective Barbara could be without the use of her legs. That’s not what worries Batgirl at all. The real fear is much more insidious. “We decided that this implant is in her spine, it’s got to hook into her brain somehow. So that’s the risk — she’s a girl who can survive anything as long as she has her brain, but what happens if her brain is suddenly becoming an unreliable place?” Scott continued, “My mom had a brain tumor, so I pulled a lot of what Babs is going through here from her — it was a lot of awkward conversations like ‘Hey, so, you know how it felt when you were brain damaged?’” Edited June 17, 2018 by tv echo Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4421568
scarynikki12 June 17, 2018 Share June 17, 2018 If I wasn't 100% sure that Arrow would screw it up, I would say that this could be an interesting story for Felicity AND could tie into her company. Her chip could start shorting out, she runs an analysis on it, and discovers that it has a shelf life of only a few years. She fixes the problem herself, patents the new design, and now she has a better product to base her company on. It also would cut out Curtis and could be wrapped up in only a couple episodes if they don't want to give it heavy focus. I'm also looking forward to this story for Babs. As awful as her fridging in Killing Joke was, her rebirth as Oracle was amazing and demonstrated that her greatest asset really is her brain. She can handle anything as long as her brain is in tact so the only real way to go after Babs is to go after her brain. DC has played with this over the years and Babs always comes through so this one should be fun. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4421615

Every time I have a super busy weekend tons of entertainment stuff happens! I hope Netflix allows them to course correct the blah recent season, and take some more risks and get more interesting. I mean, how is a show about the Devil so tame? Saw The Incredibles 2, and I thought it was really cute. Not as dark and complex as the first one, but a lot of fun with some good animation, and I thought it was a natural continuation of the story.

ruby24 June 18, 2018 Share June 18, 2018 That sounds like way too many regulars imo. The show feels cramped enough as it is.

Starfish35 June 18, 2018 Share June 18, 2018 (edited) TV's 20 Most Polarizing Characters: Do You Love 'Em or Hate 'Em? Quote There are certain TV characters who when highlighted in a news item, scoop or feature story that elicit, um, “strong” reactions from their show’s collective fan base — either on social media or in myriad TVLine comments sections. You either love ’em… or you loathe ’em. There’s very little in-between. **** Check out the gallery above (or click here direct access) to see if your (least?) favorites made the list, and also vote for the way you see these pop-culture pot-stirrers. 1. Laurel, ‘Arrow’ [Black Siren, not E1!Laurel, apparently] 2. Nate, ‘DC’s Legends of Tomorrow’ 3. Ralph, ‘The Flash’ 4. The Frost Triplets, ‘The Gifted’ 10. Danny, ‘Marvel’s Iron Fist’ 14. Archie, ‘Riverdale’ 18. Mon-El, ‘Supergirl’ Edited June 18, 2018 by Starfish35 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4423998
ruby24 June 18, 2018 Share June 18, 2018 I think the problem with all these regulars on The Flash is that the show spends way too much time in Star Labs as it is. It felt cramped and crowded last season, with only 6 regulars and some recurring characters. More salaries to pay may mean less for locations/sets, and now I just imagine getting even bigger crowds of people squeezed into Star Labs, and cutting everyone's dialogue so that each person is sure to get at least one line. I'm concerned. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4424020
scarynikki12 June 18, 2018 Share June 18, 2018 I think I need to get some rehab for my list addiction. I can’t not read and comment. I’m not voting (btw having a vote doesn’t make any sense) but here’s my thoughts: 1. Earth 1 Laurel and Black Siren were/are both set up for a legit fascinating story: the consequences of a devoted lawyer becoming a vigilante. And Arrow has not explored this at all. Laurel became a vigilante in response to Sara’s murder. There wasn’t a long term disillusionment with the law she’d sworn to uphold, or a realization that the only way she could achieve justice is to break the law herself. No she stole Sara’s costume and vigilante identity (and no exploration of the irony of THAT contrasted with her season 2 accusation), found she liked beating up bad guys and spending time around Oliver and that was it. Nor was there any concern that she’d be discovered and her convictions would get overturned. She also showed no physical signs of strain at juggling the long hours in her day job and the lack of sleep that her night job required. No she was apparently perfectly capable of doing both, was never in danger of discovery (fingerless gloves), and never saw a contradiction between her two jobs. Siren was a second chance and it was squandered again. Everyone knows that Laurel was Black Canary yet Siren was never in danger of arrest, Laurel’s convictions were never in danger of being overturned, and she’s still free to come and go in a city that voted to be anti-vigilante. Apparently that law only applies to Oliver. 2. Nate just sucks. He’s a terrible historian, his hemophilia was barely even a plot point, and he’s a poor man’s Ray in a bad way. I can’t even think of a potential story for him because he sucks just that much. Make him go away. 3. Ralph sucks more than Nate so they can go away together. 16. Steve’s hair is amazing. 18. If the show weren’t called Supergirl I’d be certain that Mon-el was brought on to replace Kara as the lead. In fact I think that’s the only reason he isn’t. He’s already replaced James, J’onn, and Alex in different ways and I’m over it. Go back to the future and treat Imra better. I’m relieved that there’s only a few shows that I watch on that list cause I don’t have the kind of time needed for the whole thing. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6472-mind-your-surroundings-arrow-the-flash-supergirl-legends-of-tomorrow-and-other-superhero-universes/page/539/#findComment-4424073

Oreo2234 June 19, 2018 Share June 19, 2018 (edited) If I was not spoiled I'd be shocked to se Mon-el leave. It made the most sense for the character and his growth for him to leave but the writers loved Mon-el . Chris is a talented actor though so I wish him the best and hope he gets a good new role. Preferably something with comedy as he really excels at that. I'm annoyed that the show is indicating that Alex will spend even less time on the field when they already sidelined her from the field enough this season. And Mehcad Brooks said we'd see Guardian at the DEO next season so we can look forward to James getting Alex's action scenes. Why?
