Mlissa Benoist suits up as Supergirl

Is well known that "Glee" star Melissa Benoist is playing Kal-El cousin role on the new CBS show based on the kryptonian young years. Now, after discovering that Toyman and Superman Cyborg are gonna be the recurrent villains, the blonde actress surprised us on Twitter with the final look this superheroine will have.

Basically, it looks awsome at the top part, which is pretty accurate to the Henry Cavill's suit for Man Of Steel. But follow that style come up like a huge fail at bottom. Skirt is kind of similar to the classic look of the character on animated movie, series and comics.

The worst part is definetely the tights. I guess that movement responds to avoid any erotic reference, which yes, SUCKS. This is a terrible idea. It seems to me like is a winter Supergirl, suffering for a terrible russiand weather. 

What do you think? Do u think it's badass?

Arrow - A Death in the Family (Castellano)

Bueno, como avisé, aquí va la primera review/opinión/noticia/chorrada...lo que sea, lo primero en español. Pero, ¡ojo! esto no va a ser traducción literal y fuera, es versión española, eso quiere decir que los chistecillos y las chorradas que me salgan de las manos salen en español. Bueno, a lo que vamos, que durante esta semana han aparecido tweets y posts en Facebook de Stephen Amell (Oliver Queen) y Colton Haynes (Red Arrow/Arsenal) que dejan entrever que en el capítulo 19 de esta temporada en la que estamos, el cual se va a llamar "Broken Arrow" por cierto, la va a palmar alguien. ¿Por qué? Porque los mensajes suenan a despedida, tristeza, "rodaje emotivo" etcétera etcétera. Casi seguro eso pues, comienza la lluvia de especulaciones de quién va a ser el que vaya a la morge. Muchos lanzan que se va a tratar del Capitán Lance, el padre de los canarios. Sí, los canarios...¡Oye! Pero que no lo digo yo, que lo dice el capítulo 3x13, a mí no me colguéis el muerto. Lance puede ser una opción fiable desde el punto de vista de que es un personaje tremendamente reemplazable, no por mi parte desde luego, pero tal y como lo están usando en los últimos capítulos, tampoco pasa nada si lo borran del mapa, y así ya de paso supone un golpe dramático para Laurel muy fuerte.

¡Pero no! Para mí tiene todo esto una pinta mucho mejor que eso. Y es que, ¿qué pasaría si...MUERE ROY?! Pensadlo. Tal y como se vio en el último capítulo (y en realidad a todo lo largo de la serie) que Ra's al Ghul le ofrece a Queen el trono de La Liga de las Sombras, está ya muy claro que Green Arrow es algo así como el Batman del universo DC de la televisión. Al margen de que en realidad lo único parecido entre personajes es que no tienen superpoderes, esto traería a la palestra un arco argumental de sobra conocido como es Una Muerte en la Familia. En este cómic, el Joker secuestra a Jason Todd (el segundo Robin) y lo asesina a batazos y con una bomba. Total, que Batman se queda desolado y culpable. Pero con el paso del tiempo, Todd vuelve y se convierte en un hijo de puta llamado Red Hood, que básicamente asesina a los villanos en lugar de arrestarlos, ya que, si Batman hubiera acabado con el Joker, él no habría "casi muerto". Todo este rollo está muy bien explicado en la película de animación Under The Hood, una maravilla por cierto,

El caso es que, ¿y si muere Roy por...digamos...Malcolm Merlyn? Diréis: Malcolm no es tan malo. Malcolm ES TAN MALO. Y por Dios que siga siendo malo, porque es de lo mejorcito de la serie, sólo falta que se deje un poco de perilla y ea. El caso es que
Merlyn lo mate, todo el mundo llore mucho y tal y tal y, para la siguiente temporada vuelva como el verdadero badass Arsenal de los cómics, odiando a Oliver por haberse confabulado con Merlyn. Otro punto que puede apoyar esta teoría es la foto que ha subido a Instagram Willa Holland, en la que le están tomando un molde de la cara para hacerle la máscara, probablemente para convertirse en Speedy (tal y como le llevan llamando toda la serie) que en los cómics es el compañero de Green Arrow.

Todo suena de puta madre, ¿a que sí? Pues probablemente por eso no pase. Pero bueno, los mismo a la gente de CW les da por ahí y todos felices y contentos.

Arrow - A Death In The Family

We're about to discover Arrow's cards for the end of this 3rd season and it seems to be related with the repeated plot of Ra's Al Ghul offering Batman to replace him and becaming the new devil's head of The League of the Shadows (League of Assassins here). But, as we all know and supose, Oliver Queen is not gonna accept this, so many more cliffhangers are gonna be shown and left at these last espisodes (because is Arrow, so why are you gonna write intelligent script when you can just drop as many cliffhangers as you can instead). Latest posts of Stephen Amell (Oliver Queen) and Colton Haynes (Roy Harper) sounding so close to farewell (death in the show) and the name of the episode they were filming "3x19: Broken Arrow" let some evident clues of what we can expect to see on this season finale, or proximately at least. 


Many people are debating and throwing theories about who could possibly die in the show. So many of them argue than Cap Lance could be a reasonable choice, taking account that is one replaceable character and, at the same time, his death could be so dramatic for the Team Arrow. BUT BUT BUT. The other day, actress who plays Thea Queen's role (Willa Holland) uploaded a pic of herself on a set test in order to take an scale model of her face, probably for a mask. As we know, Thea is the one the show called Speedy, who is the Green Arrow sidekick's alias in the comics. This fed my theory of Greg Berlanti and the rest of the gang are planning to introducing the arc of Death in the Family. In this arc, Jason Todd, the second Robin, is kidnapped by the Joker and murdered. Batman fall in depression for this and started to feel guilty for not being able to protect him. As time goes by, Todd reappears as a killing vigilante, something alike Punisher in some way, now called Red Hood. Once we know this, WHAT IF? What if...somebody, for example...Malcolm Merlyn, just because he's a son of a bitch, KILL ROY HARPER (o at least let him die, that as we saw in ... which was her name? Christ! you guys know what I mean! The japanese girl from the island!! awgggg... I give up, according to Dathstroke way of thinking Oli killed her and bla bla bla...) and he turns back on the next season as the motherfucking ARSENAL, as we know from the comics. And, at the same time, Thea replace him as a Speedy.

What do you guys think? Sounds as a pretty cool option to me!


SHADO!! That was the goddam name!!

Review: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. 2x11 "Aftershocks"

So this is the first one, the first i guess of many ones. What we got here is a very volatile show in a matter on tone. We've seen it passing from a non-so-clear superheroic and adveturer look, crearly defined by Joss Whedon's influence (actually he directed the pilot and his brother is showrunner), to the Ian Fleming's style of twisted plot, spies and betrayals. Actually, this change elevated the expectations and redifinied to something more interesting for the fans. Even became better, episode after episode. But we come here to the crucial scenario of intrduce "mutants" at the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Notice that I did say mutants, instead of Inhumans, 'cause practically these are gonna be the replacement for those who cannot be used by Marvel and find theirselves still under that vicious circle called "That's Okey But at the End Magneto is the Villain and Wolverine Saves the Day".

Coming back to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, the arrival of Inhumans should be responded with another change of tone, because...I don't know... INHUMANS HAVE POWERS!!! According to this point, in somehow, this has to mean the end of the realistic tone and the double agents plot. And here comes the first bloomer since that beloved 1x17 "Turn, turn, turn". If I'm understanding correctly, Skye is able to create earthquakes, but she is keeping the secret of the group, as Fitz is the only one who knows it. Uhmm this sounds to me like the typical move to l
engthen this piece of plot for another three episodes, +1 episode of revealing to the rest of the gang that, as we all know, finally won't care about it because Skye is their friends besides a partner bla bla bla bla... SOOOO LAZY WRITING!! Yep, and you'll come up with the argument that is like the mutants that are not well treated by society (see? I'm faster) and yes! That's goddam true. But as far as we know, there's no knowledge of inhumans existence to the public opinion, and the one they have about superheroes is pretty good, as we saw at the end of Avengers. So, why the hell Skye woudn't go out screaming and yelling: "Yeah bitch! I provoque fuckin' EARTHQUAKES!!!! Where are the Avengers that I'm joing them! Screw you, Coulson!!" Because, mutants are really afraid of the way they see that everyone treats the other mutants.
So we are getting an Inhuman version of Nighcrawler?

However, this episode has plenty of good moments as the discussion coming from Trip's death reasons and Rinah's fears and dissapointment for what she has become. But definitely, what makes this a really well episode is the scene of Hydra's heads assassinations. Christ! It recalled me so much (keepin' disctance) to The Godfather's baptism scene. Really great that!

So this episode really got me sometimes but, as I said before, I've got a suspicious about all this thing of Skye keeping her secret and not going out to beat some asses for once in two looong seasons.
