I know it's a meme, and that's exactly why it was there and literally why I hated it. I don't want memes in my TV shows. It's a painful attempt at looking relevant to teenagers and will sound even more awkward and stupid when rewatched in the future. Even going back through 10-15 year old shows now and hearing them reference Yahoo and Myspace is ridiculous.

 

The plot progression in this episode may have been dire but dialogue is far more important to me, and that was a shining beacon of light compared to the previous week's constant forced double entendres and "pop culture references".

 

Disney has made ~$250,000,000 off forced double entendres and pop culture references over the weekend. People keep saying DC should copy Marvel more :heh:

Whedon's done that his whole career and it was easily the worst part of the movie, and it nearly killed Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. right off the starting block.

 

Edit: *second worst part after the weird holo 3d representation of Jarvis/AI. Like something out of Hackers.

I agree with Shorty. Trying to cram in too many (read:any) memes and general pop culture references seems cheap and just ruins the story and artisitic value for the sake of a few "oh- that's the thing from the thing- I know that" moments.

Just started watching this, one question: What's the point of a mask if you still have to obscure your face to people you know?

Also if somebody's hiding their face you will immediately think "this is someone I know" :p

Danielle Panabaker, aka Caitlin Snow, is doing an AMA. I asked her where the prisoners go pee, she said to watch the finale :p

 

Edit: There are spoilers in the questions (sorry @MindFreak, I didn't read anyone else's questions!) not just about recent episodes but upcoming stuff.

 

Also, someone mentioned that her sister was in No Ordinary Family, I remember her now, very strong family resemblance!

I only just got round to watching the last two episodes of this. They were insane. Some parts really felt right out of a big-budget movie. Especially the last few mins of each. That Ep 22 fight. Holy crap.

 

The only thing I didn't like

I still don't understand why the *sigh* Reverse Flash is mortal enemies with the Flash. He was supposedly born 127 years from now... it was never explained in the series...

 

I guess the Flash could age really, really slowly but this was never put forward as a reason.

 

Anyone help?

Well let's just say time travel is part of the canon, so their paths must have crossed at some point.

While I loved the final ep the thing that annoys me...

Also why did the *sigh* Reverse Flash vibrate every time, even when everyone knew who he was? Seems like a waste of energy, he kinda needed?
