Arrow Review

"The promise" was an episode which the producers and directors all hailed to be a game changer and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! it was sooooooo sick! sorry for that lack of description but it really was the turning point of this season. We saw this last season, around this point in time, Season 1 and its quality of episodes dramatically increased, it transitioned from "I might stop watching it" to "Its getting good now!"  and were witnessing something similar here its gong from "Arrow is really cool" to "Arrow is the best show I watched this week" we saw Slade learn the truth about Shado's death as they attempted to take the freighter. As you could imagine, Slade was pretty angry! to say the least. Plans went wrong Sara got back to the island and Oliver tried the same but Slade stopped him. Back in present day, Moira and Thea are taking "Mr Wilson"
 (Slade) on a tour of their house and Oliver isn't too happy about it. This is where Manu Bennett shines as Slade his language, mannerisms and subtle hints to his past are so entertaining in a villainous way. He verbally but subtly torments Oliver for the whole episode until Roy and Sarah show up. They surround Slade and Oliver says "What are you going to do now Mr Wilson?!"  and I loved his expression when he said it. As Slade leaves he tells Oliver that he has a team as well and that he will make Oliver's life a living hell just as he promised on the island. I don't usually rate TV episodes but this deserves a blog of steel 10/10. In the promo for the next episode suicide squad do we see Harley Quinn? It looks like her to me! 


Arkham Knight

Arkham Knight is the next game in the Arkham series. It is set after Arkham City and for those of you who don't know the timeline order of the games is Origins, Asylum, City, and now Knight. Because of this the joker will NOT feature in this game but fear not people! from the trailer, this game looks seriously badass! Bats has more gadgets in his arsenal and technology seems to have significantly improved. I'm talking about a BATMOBILE. that's right, a BATMOBLIE. Now I don't know if its just me blindly hoping but it looks like we may be able to DRIVE THE BATMOBLIE! 
if that's not enough to make you want to buy the game, you can also play as Harley Quinn with the pre-order bonus. This is just speculation, but in Arkham  Origins, there was a few references to Green Arrow. Will we see green arrow in this game?! I hope so but im very doubtful. If this is set after city then we could possibly have Nightwing, and maybe Red Hood? if we do, it just be a cameo I think. *sigh* But the game looks awesome and I definitely recommend buying it when it comes out. click here for the trailer. But I warn you, its very badass.


Batman/Superman update!

NBC Michigan reports that the filming of Superman/Batman has begun!! FIIIIIIIIIIIIIINALLLLLLY! Filming is taking place at a location on a camp in Michigan, that's why NBC Michigan reported it, I guess you figured that out though! The movie is code named "Sage and Milo." And the crew have constructed a whole house on the property. Michael Wilkinson is the costume designer for Bat/Supes and he was asked about his new designs where he said there will be "tweaks" made to the man of steel costume and he is very excited about his final product of the Batsuit however he didn't give much away at all. He was asked at the Oscars if he thinks that Wonder Woman fighting in her normal costume is a little silly and unrealistic and he said, "no, not at all." My opinion is that the Superman suit will look near enough the same to what we saw in man of steel. I think that the batsuit will be similar to the suit in the Arkham games and I think the wonder woman costume will be close to the costume in DC's new 52 comic series.

The Flash TV update

The Flash TV show's pilot has begun filming! and again, FFFIIIIIINNNNALLLYY!!!! the cast are up in Vancouver and they all seem very excited about what they are doing, we have already see the Flash costume and it looks really cool, we have a cast that's big enough for a pilot and we have a hype that's ready to see this pilot. It is still unclear weather or not the flash's pilot will be a backdoor on arrow or if it will be a stand alone pilot.
 I think now that the Flash has gained a lot of hype from his appearance on arrow, he will get a stand alone pilot which will air after an episode of arrow. As you can see, this is the set chair ready for Grant (Barry Allen). the logo, is the traditional flash logo from the comics with a few double lightning bolts around it. I am not too happy with this because I wanted it to follow the suit of Arrow, I mean in its modern look and realism and this logo, if it is the final thing, is very cartoon-ey! and looks a little bit like its not going to be a serious show. I will, however say, that the clapboard (thing used to shout "CUT") looks really flash-y! if ya know what I mean!!


Gotham Update!!

You should probably know by now that FOX is in development of a new TV show called Gotham which centers around a young Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) as he grows into his role as Gotham's most famous law protector working for the G.C.P.D. We will see a young, very young Bruce Wayne growing up as seasons go by. However, we will NOT see batman. We will see the origins of Gotham's most notorious villains. Hence the name Gotham. And it was announced that David Mazouz will be playing a very young Bruce Wayne and Camren Bicondova has been cast as Selina Kyle who fans will know as Catwoman. However, again, she will not become Catwoman unless the show goes to like season 10 or something! This casting was a bit weird seeing as though Selina will be older than Bruce. I don't get that! they will have an age difference of about like 4/5 years.  One thing im really looking forward to is the fact that I strongly believe that we will see the Wayne family Theater trip where they leave and Bruce's parents die. I think that would make for one helluva pilot episode!! news about dates of filming or release have not been announced yet. Stay patient. 



That's all of for this week! Bats/Supes is underway as well as The Flash!! I can't wait for them! Gotham has cast a Bruce Wayne which, as you can imagine, is a really important casting for a TV show based off of batman!! 
Arrow had the best episode its ever had and looks like it can only get better! could we see Harley Quinn? and Arkham Knight looks like it has had high development and it looks like they are going to try to be innovative to stop the hate that Arkham Origins received. This is easily achieved for me if I can drive the Batmobile! Like always, if you liked what you read, or even if you didn't, comment below!
