  1. According to Snyder, the Robin suit was Grayson's. https://www.whosdatedwho.com/dating/stana-katic
  2. That depends on the point of the car. If Bob just uses it to go to work, shopping, and the like, it's free. If it is the Batmobile, it's going to cost.
  3. Tonight's the night we'll make history Honey, you and I 'Cause I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time And stay with you here tonight I know you feel these are the worst of times I do believe it's true When people lock their doors and hide inside Rumor has it it's the end of paradise But I know, if the world just passed us by Baby I know, you wouldn't have to cry, no no The best of times are when I'm alone with you Some rain some shine We'll make this a world for two Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime We'll take the best, forget the rest And someday we'll find these are the best of times These are the best of times The headlines read "These are the worst of times" I do believe it's true I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide I wish the summer winds could bring back paradise But I know, if the world turned upside down Baby, I know you'd always be around The best of times are when I'm alone with you Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two When I'm alone with you (the best of times) Everything's alright (are when I'm alone with you) When I'm alone with you (some rain some shine) You brighten up the night (we'll make this a world for two) said, when I'm alone

    “What do you think?” “I think he's entirely serious. He doesn't like the director. In there,” Huntress pointed at the doors. “Behind me. What do you have?” Paladin asked. “Be still my fluttering heart, my knight,” Huntress teased. “Formaldehyde, blood, rot.” “And you say I never take you anywhere fun,” he bantered back. “Christ...” Canisters big enough to hold an adult with a lot of room to spare, were lined up on either side. Some were broken, several were opened, a lot of them held the remains of failed experiments. “Visual record start.” “Anything look like it makes sense?” Huntress asked. “A lot of dead bodies. First canister opened, label reads 'VV1574'. Second opened canister, R4V3N. Strange.” “What is?” “There's space for at least one canister here. Marks on the floor show there was one.” “Something on the floor there,” Huntress pointed it out. “Under the hose.” Paladin knelt. “Got it. D0V3. The way these are marked. Version numbers?” “Could be.” Huntress cocked her head and turned it slowly from side to side. “I hear something.” “Augment sound,” Paladin said. “Ow! Cancel out the gunshots.” He listened. “Deeper in.” Moving silently, Huntress headed further into the lab. “In here.” Paladin stopped outside of the door. “Dan.” “What is it?” “Huntress and I are heading into a lab. The panel outside the door is marked '4V474' with a lower case r.” “Avatar?” “You know it?” “Everyone we don't want having access to it seems to have access to it.” “Copy that.” “What is it?” Huntress asked. Pushing against the door and finding it locked, Paladin said, “Bio enhancement. Project started under government overwatch. Nova Research was pushing for it. Can you open this? Never mind.” His hand slammed into the lock, sending something on the other side of the door clattering. “The government wanted assets it could use in the event of a war.” “Kind of like the Liberty Brigade.” “More like self-directing nukes.” He pushed the door open. “That looks like a sarcophagus.” “That's where the sound is coming from.” Paladin nodded. “I hear it. Like someone knocking.” “It would be nice if we had some power.” “Says the blind lady. There's a control panel.” Looking at the panel, he said, “It would be nice if it had some power.” “I think I said that.” She listened. “That's not Morse code. Sounds more like a generic 'get me out of here'.” “Auxiliary power. Standard coupling. Give me a second and...” The sarcophagus began to hum and they heard a scream from inside. “Stand clear. I'm going to open it and then cut the power again.” He flipped a couple of switches and there was a whir of sound as the bolts holding the lid retracted. Fluid spilled out. The cover broke free and crashed into the door. Paladin retracted the power coupling. The occupant of the sarcophagus collapsed to the floor, ripping the wire harness free from the interior. The nude form scrabbled trying to remove the mask that covered her head. “Easy, miss,” Paladin said, trying to lend her a hand. The woman backhanded him sending him flying back into the control panel. Her hands went back to the mask. Huntress flipped her baton out and tossed it. It connected with a button on the side of the mask before rebounding into her hand. She slipped it back into its holster. The girl lifted the front of the mask up and off her head. She tossed it to the side. It exploded against the wall, cracking the concrete. “We're not here to hurt you,” Huntress said gently. The girl tried unsteadily to stand. “You're not... Not...” “Huntress,” Mentor said quietly. “The girl's name is Ashleigh Parks. She has been missing for the last twenty months.” “And you have access to my useless equipment.” “Apologies. Jason wanted me as extra eyes and ears. Just in case.” “No harm, no foul.” Huntress took a tentative step forward. “Miss Parks. Ashleigh...” “Ash. Where am I?” Prying himself from the control panel, Paladin said, “Canada. Alberta.” She hung her head. “Long way from home.” “A long time away from home,” Huntress said. “Can you stand?” “Trying,” she said, slowly pushing herself up. The floor under her knuckles cracked.
  7. Do they ever explain how/when Lex started drinking the Joker's bong water?
  8. And it was the band Oz played in on Buffy.

    “Uh oh.” “Lightning, sitrep,” Thomas ordered. “Fourth quarter and the two-minute warning just sounded,” Lightning said. “Explain.” “We've got a time counting down. Four minutes twenty seconds...mark,” Pulsar said. “We have no idea what it is for, but since we are near the server room it shouldn't be that hard to guess.” “Damn it.” “Lightning, cart,” Pulsar said pointing. “Fill it up with anything that looks important and bring it to me. Mentor, override Lightning's HUD. Give him a fast path out. Calculate his travel time and give him a countdown of his own.” He pulled open the door to the server room. “RAIDs. Fun. Lightning, when your timer hits zero, you leave. No questions, no quibbles.” “Got it.” “What are you going to do, son?” “Kick your ass if you don't stop calling me that!” Pulsar ran his fingers along the arrays, one row at a time, trailing crimson and disappearing each blade as his finger crossed it. It was the first time he had done such a thing and he wasn't sure there was going to be a limit to what he could take. Lightning returned with a cart full of notebooks. Pulsar disappeared everything on the cart and Lightning went back for more. In between deliveries, Pulsar focused on the servers.
  10. Didn't we get Luche Libre Hero for Mexico?

    As I recall, the ability to change into those came much later. Like after a demonic possession and undergoing the Amazonian purple ray healing.
  13. Point was it showed the ending of each member of the Fellowship. Most sailed. Some died
  14. False endings? Everything that came after "the end" of the story was in the books. Did you people never read the appendixes?
  15. The Arrow-verse Crisis counts. It even had 2 Flashes (Flashi? Fleeshes?)
  16. Then they need to release it in a format for all and not just those that subscribe to HBO.
  17. Has some potential.
  18. Studios prefer >2 hours. More showings, more money. Unless the movie is a turd...
  19. Well, if it was fear, the para-demons would be on them.
  20. On the other hand, cut back on his vision until the groundwork has been laid. Snyder seems pretty big on the deconstruction aspect, but you can deconstruct what hasn't been constructed. You can't expect the average movie-goer to be a comic-reader that knows all the ins and outs of the characters involved.
  21. I liked the first one. Minor quibbles at most. Second one lost me. Violated things set down in the first one. Like Ghost Rider doesn't do sunlight.
