6.11 Justice - Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

[Zorex]

I don't know, IMO it's hard to say an episode's going to be "the best" before it's aired. I think it's going to be pretty darn dandy, but subsequent episodes (Labyrinth, Crimson) may yet be even better. The way things have been shaping up (and continue to do so), the finale could be the best.

Anyway. Justice is gonna rock, pretty sure

Dude, the first 12 minutes are on Yahoo!

Unless the other 48 minutes are a piece of s--t, I'm pretty sure this episode will rock!

The apology works better without the - meh,whatever - do not use the word "gay" to denote something bad again.

In my area, might be a michigan thing, when we say somethings gay it means its dumb, or stupid..

Pappa Lee Strikes again..dun dun dun

The problem is, most everybody else associates the word with being homosexual. The mods here ask that it not be used to imply a negative such as "dumb" or "stupid" because some people might not see it in the harmless context intended.

Hell, even Eminem has gotten into trouble for our slang.

Supposedly it was because of the Flash movie that is in production they are not allowed to use the name Flash. So they did the next best thing, used the name Impulse.

Short answer? Potential public confusion with a Flash film, currently in development.

Shorter answer? Stupidity.

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

has it been confirmed he's called Impulse on the show? Because on the CW Director's Cut footage they refer to him as the Flash...

They said somewhere before that he was going to be called Impulse, but maybe they were able to obtain the right to the name between then and now, and just changed it.

That would be cool.

Ha ha! Even the guys on the show think the Flash costume sucks!
From the Zap2It article:

"We didn't feel as goofy as Kyle," Ritchson says. "His costume sucked. We were taking promo shots. I go in and do my thing, and we're sitting around looking at shots. Kyle had been in there getting his shots in his costume, and he's all cool. Then here's my picture in a Speedo, then there's Kyle in a red sweatshirt."

"Kyle looked really cool," Hartley says, "but his costume didn't."

"It looked like his mom made it," Thompson says.

"She had some cotton fabric and a Magic Marker and put it together," says Ritchson.

too funnyt:

 

[Brainiac 2009]

Hmm from Aint it Cool;

Is Bart calling himself “Impulse” or “Flash” now?
In the comics he’s been known as “Flash,” “Kid Flash” and “Impulse,” and his aliases in 4.5 were those of Flashes Jay Garrick and Wally West, but Ollie names him “Impulse.”

Guess that answers that.

So it’s safe to assume Ollie is the team’s leader?
It is.

Oliver Queen as the leader of the Justice League will take some getting used to.

 

[Brainiac 2009]

Ha ha! Even the guys on the show think the Flash costume sucks!
From the Zap2It article:

I think a costume closer to this would have looked cooler

He needs those cool goggles.

No, it's not a Michigan thing. It's a universally ignorant, juvenile thing.

 

[Ultimate_Superman]

I really hope this show lives up to its hype. I am really looking forward to this so I hope it does well. I would have liked for Clark to be the leader of the group though because right now he and Green Arrow reminds me on how Iron-Man and Spider-Man were in New Avengers which kind of sucks.

Craig didnt say one thing about Clark's involvement in the whole episode, other than the usual Chloe has to hold his hand.

He couldnt find anything to say???

 

[Brainiac 8]

That was an interesting read, thanks Trip.

I don't know, I just skimmed it.. didn't want to read anyone else's thoughts, might be harder to make my own clear.

Sure.
