"DC's Legends of Tomorrow"

"Legends of Tomorrow stars Arthur Darvill (Doctor Who) as Rip Hunter, alongside Victor Garber (The Flash, Alias) as Martin Stein; Brandon Routh (Arrow, Superman Returns) as Ray Palmer/The Atom, Ciarra Renee (Pippin) as Hawkgirl; Franz Drameh (Edge of Tomorrow) as Jay Jackson; Dominic Purcell (The Flash, Prison Break) as Mick Rory/Heat Wave and Wentworth Miller (The Flash, Prison Break) as Leonard Snart/Captain Cold. Also in the cast is Caity Lotz from Arrow, with the exact nature of her role still being kept a secret – though there are plenty of theories out there (along with a few spy pics of Lotz filming) regarding Sara Lance returning in one form or another and how that might occur."

Well, not to jump the gun, but with a title like "Legends of Tomorrow" and Rip Hunter as a main character, its not to difficult to figure out how Sara can put in an appearance.

I'll be interested in seeing how this show will be formatted.

[mako]

I'll probably regret this down the line, but I'm gonna give this one a couple of points up front just cause they're giving us the first live action Hawkgirl (okay technically second).

How original!

HA! You called it.

 

Sorry, I'm a little wearry of this one.

 

Captain Cold is phenomenal on Flash. I love when he's on screen, his villainy is perfectly portrayed (see last night's episode), he's a scene stealer. I also don't necessarily want to see him on a regular basis. I want to be excited when they use him again and I'm afraid getting him week after week will diminish his coolness. Much like how overexposure has killed interest in many a cool comic book character. Or how Star Trek overused the Borg to the point where seeing them became no big deal.

 

They also need to give Atom his proper powers before I can get too excited about him.

 

There will also be too many superhero shows next season. Too many for me to keep up with, at least. I'm going to have to let some of them pass and this one looks like a candidate.

[CaptainTriumph]

I'll watch this for sure.

 

Flash will be a must watch and I'll probably stay up on Arrow.

 

I will check out Supergirl.

 

I've lost interest in Gotham and have never gotten into Agents of Sheild.

 

Agent Carter is another one that I will watch.

I've found Snart's scenery chewing kind of annoying. Every time he's on I feel like I'm watching a bad Kevin Spacey movie.

 

90% of my issues with Ted-Ray would disappear if they would dump the dorky rich-guy schtick and let Routh do some acting. In the few scenes where his character is actually given some gravitas, he's actually pretty good, maybe even one of the better actors on Arrow.

 

I'll admit it tends to eat up the DVR space, but if there was room on TV for 3 CSIs, 3 NCISs, and God in Heaven knows how many Law & Orders, over the years, then there's more than enough room for all the comic book/superhero programming they can make. As long as the quality is there, bring 'em on!

The article is mistaken. "Legends" was mentioned in the schedule, but as a mid-season show. So no, not this year.

[Wheeljack35]

It's sort of a JLA thing isn't it?

I'll give you this, its probably as much a "JLA thing" as the JLA movie is gonna be an "Avengers thing."

Victor Garber Talks 'Legends Of Tomorrow' & Confirms 'Flash' Return

Wouldn't exactly call 15 episodes a "mini" series. For one thing, its two episodes more than the standard 13 episode deal most fledgling shows start out with. In any case, I can't say the short order wasn't expected, neither was the mid-season bow.

 

Its one thing to want to cash in on superheroes, but most networks will get a little gun-shy and draw up short of the point where they think they'll be dubbed the "Superhero Channel."

 

Apparently being dubbed the dysfunctional family sitcom channel, the cheesy legal drama channel, or the cookie-cutter police procedural channel doesn't have the same effect.

[CaptainTriumph]

15 episodes are better than none...

There's a new promo out featuring Captain Cold, the "villain turned hero." @bs@

 

Seriously, he's gonna be a hero now. After countless off-screen robberies, murdering his own father, kidnapping and crippling Cisco's brother, leaving Caitlyn to die tied to an incendiary bomb, blackmailing Barry to destroy all evidence against him, and tricking Barry into freeing all the meta-criminals he'd captured while killing the crew of an aircraft in the process?

 

See, there's nothing I love to see in a superhero series more than realistic character development. @rolleye@

Soooo... They made a Vixen cartoon which was so super-popular they brought her on for an episode of Arrow. That worked out so well that they're bringing her on to Legends...just not the same character or actress.

 

Makes perfect sense to me.

I love the fact their sizzle reel's "Big Reveal" was the addition of the big bad from the most universally despised season of Arrow since the show began.
