I've watched the trailer so many times I couldn't get enough of it.

So the team is actually made up of legally dead heroes/criminals:
Sara: shot and fell off a building
Firestorm: missing since accelerator exlplosion
Ray Palmer/Atom : building explosion
Cpt Cold /Lenard Snart: All records destroyed by the Flash
Hawkgirl / Kendra Saunders : (According to Wiki) Was a young woman who committed suicide. When Kendra's soul left her body, that of her grandfather's first cousin Shiera Hall, the Golden Age Hawkgirl entered it, making Kendra a walk in.
Heatwave / Mick Rony : Can't remember about him. Same fate as Firestorm?
Jay Jackson: New to DC Uni. Guess we will find out.Comment

I'm wondering if there's going to an episode set in ancient egypt, where Kendra meets Katar, and then his modern day equivalent later on.This looks great. Pure crazy superhero fun!
I am so glad Sara is actually resurrected instead of being plucked out of time (that would have meant her going back to die in the end)!!
I do not care how this fits into Arrow's timeline or whatever esp after the "awesomeness" that was the third season. As for Laurel, I am not too bothered by her absence. Her portrayal has improved (though her capabilities make little sense; she's gone from a bumbling vigilante noob to taking out League of Assassins members like a boss in a span of several months 
) but I dunno....I find her quite dull esp next to Sara. She can stay on Arrow.
So it's Vandal Savage vsThe DoctorRip Hunter eh? Cool. Hope they do them justice.
That part where Rip Hunter calls them legends could have been better. Not a big deal.
I am getting a little tired of the Hawks being separated or appearing alone. It would be nice to acknowledge Carter.
Overall, I'm in; can't wait for 2016

Professor Stein mentions on the trailer that "his other half is combustible". I wonder if that is the reason why Ronnie Raymond doesn't appear in the initial cast announcement. Has Ronnie's body somehow become unstable when he is not merged with Professor Stein ?Comment

Could be any number of reasons- if the actor didn't want the role, was unavailable, or maybe the WB execs wanted someone else/younger? This is all just speculation but the synopsis on Jackson's character sounds eerily close to Rusch's backstory. Of course it also sounds close to a DC character called Maximum so who knows...Comment

I read somewhere that Robbie Amell will be filming a movie this summer, so he's probably not available for firestormComment

I want to like this show. Seriously I do, but I am completely skeptical about it. WB owns DC Comics and all character rights and instead of pulling out all the stops and giving a show with all the giant DC Comics characters (Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Aquaman) and all the lesser known heroes in a "Brave and the Bold" anthology series with its own continuity, corporate greed has selfishly declared the characters appearing in movies as off limits as seeing them on the small screen would somehow interfere with their precious profit they care so much about, oblivious to the fact that most fans would watch big and small screen versions of the same heroes and would actually be intelligent enough to understand different continuities. I can't get behind this version of The Atom. A billionaire tech genius in a metallic suit that flies............we've totally never seen that before.
And this team of HEROES has TWO CRIMINALS in its ranks.........I want to like this as I said, and I will give it a chance but right now, it doesn't like look like all it could be.

This seems like it could be kinda awful. Maybe. Possibly. But we'll see, I guess. Maybe.Last edited by Dagenspear; 05-18-2015, 05:14 PM.Comment
