Hello everyone and welcome back! Let's dive right in shall we?
Well Bart finally appeared and low key I'm a little pissed about how he did cause of the future implications it has. Like seriously I was waiting all season to see him and now he appears alongside Nora and that's so irritating cause it clearly means that we won't have him for more than an episode or two at most!! We got Nora for a whole damn season but Bart who I adore will only be a guest??? Ugh. I also don't love that he feels like nothing more than a repeat of Nora cause not only is he Barry and Iris's kid rather than their grandkid but Nora already took on all of Bart's high energy and future slang thing so Bart doing the same is a little lame. I also do wonder if the two are going to be twins or what cause seriously I could barely go along with the show wanting me to believe that Jessica Parker Kennedy wasn't almost 40 but now that she's beside Jordan Fisher who's actually 10 years younger than her it's extra not believable! On another note it was really nice to see Diggle and we got a few more hints about his future Green Lantern thing. Apparently since we last saw him, he was trying not to be Green Lantern and the ring was attacking him for not accepting it but it looks like now he will which makes me think that whenever the next DCTV Arrowverse crossover will be, he'll appear as a Green Lantern and we'll have to believe that he had all sorts of adventures off in space as John Diggle Stewart (as we know was his stepfather's last name!)
Wow so the finale is already beginning next week with the first of two parts! I guess Godspeed really is the Big Bad of this second half which tbh is super lame and honestly this whole season can honestly go down as one of the worst. I'd like to blame the pandemic but seriously look at Legends which hasn't skipped a single beat!
As penultimate episodes go this was a pretty fun one! I mean so yeah we didn't actually get any more answers than we had last week but I couldn't help but ignore that given that I had fun with meeting more Lokis! As I guessed last week we did meet Kid Loki and then as I found out we met Classic Loki and Boastful Loki as well as Gator Loki and President Loki for a quick second. I do have to say that the absolute best moment was for sure when Classic Loki shouted out one of the fan theories the internet had about Loki escaping Thanos by projecting an illusion and hiding in the debri to escape! It got a real laugh of out me. Thankfully we didn't spend too much with our heroes separated from one another with Loki finding Sylvie and Moebius pretty quickly. I am a little saddened at the fact that Moebius went back to the TVA to wreak havoc rather than go with Loki and Sylvie past the Void but I imagine maybe he'll rally the troops and come to help or perhaps it'll be more that they return and see him ruling the TVA? I'm still not sure who I expect to be behind all this but it's clearly someone who hates Loki cause they really can't seem to stand a Loki who does something outside of their expected path. I do like the fan theories about it being Kang the Conqueror who was a TVA agent at some point in the comics before he left to rule the world basically and the idea that this whole thing is in the quantum realm but tbh that might be too far of a reach for this show so I'll try not to have expectations otherwise when they're not met like with Wandavision I'll just be disappointed.
Leverage: Redemption Season 1A
Dudes you cannot imagine how excited I was to check this show out cause I was a huge huge fan of the original Leverage when I checked it out a few years ago so obviously I would be really curious to see whether this reboot/sequel would be as good as the previous or whether it would change too many things up! To my utmost pleasure the show is like a love letter to the original. Not only does it bring back almost all of the main characters from the original Leverage but the cons also run the same way they did only slightly updated to deal with modern technology and modern bad rich guys. I also loved that rather than do the typical thing most shows do with time skips or sequels Hardison, Eliot, and Parker stayed together as did Nate and Sophie so we jumped right back into our crew loving and trusting and supporting one another. It was a little unfortunate that Hardison only showed up for the first two episodes of the season and I didn't really care for his replacement but I did love Mr Wilson mostly cause I adored Noah Wyle in The Librarians! I'm really looking forward to the next half which should be airing in the Fall/Winter of 2021 or so I've heard!
This was an interesting episode cause it felt like nothing happened in it and we spent so much time in freeze frames watching our heroes pose and look cool but tbh of course the show can't just throw us into fights and craziness from the start! We didn't really focus on much of the others but we did see that a lot of them returned to the heroes they were working with last season during the Emi arc which was sweet but I'm still wondering about what the League Of Villains is up to. Last week I mentioned that it felt like Hawks was in two bad guy organizations but now the show seems to have cleared up the fact that actually the League is working with the Liberation Army (or maybe it's the other way around) but either way I don't entirely understand what that agenda was. I feel like we were told about them in a previous season but I must have forgotten it though if I had to make an assumption it probs has something to do with getting rid of heroes and hierarchy and all that cause that's the vibe a name like the Liberation Army gives me.
