The Review at the End of the Universe
Season 3 of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow has come to an end so that means Kneel Before Pod has to publish a discussion about it. A small team get together to discuss giant Furbys, Infinity Totems, bad guys turned good turned bad again and the rehabilitation of John Constantine. Craig can be found on this…
“The Good, The Bad and The Cuddly” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow closes off season 3 with a visit to the Old West and a final showdown against the newly released Mallus. Last week finally revealed the true form of Mallus and it was a little bit of a disappointment to have the villain of the…
“Guest Starring John Noble” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow raises the stakes as Mallus is closer than ever to achieving freedom from his magical prison. Last week‘s episode resulted in a loss of momentum for the season by delivering an episode so divorced from the main plot that it felt like filler. With only one episode…
“I, Ava” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow reveals the truth about Ava as Zari is tasked with helping Mick learn to control the Fire Totem. The mystery of Ava is a relatively recent thing thanks to a cryptic remark by Rip revealing that there is a truth to be uncovered. This is combined with unnecessary angst…
“Necromancing the Stone” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow revisits the threat of Mallus when he uses his influence to turn one of their own against them. Sara’s duality and inner conflict has been a big part of this season. The circumstances surrounding her resurrection make her attuned to more mystical problems and Mallus is able to…
“Amazing Grace” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow heads to Memphis in 1954 to save Rock and Roll by helping Elvis Presley get his groove back. It was only a matter of time before this show introduced its version of Elvis Presley. Historical figures have been pretty well handled in the past such as George Lucas and…
“No Country for Old Dads” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow explores the dysfunctional father/daughter relationship between Damien and Nora Darhk as the team work to rescue Ray. This show could be described as the “silly one” in the context of the other CW DC Superhero TV shows; not to be confused with The Flash which is…
“The Curse of the Earth Totem” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow heads to the Bahamas in 1717 on a mission to retrieve the Earth Totem from the notorious Pirate, Blackbeard. I’ll start this off by saying that I am not a fan of Pirates. It’s not something I can easily rationalise but they just don’t interest…
“Here I Go Again” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow channels Groundhog Day when Zari finds herself stuck in a time loop ending in the destruction of the Waverider. A time loop episode for this show was inevitable. Most sci-fi/fantasy shows get around to it sooner or later and I’m actually surprised that this one took so…
“Daddy Darhkest” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow picks up where it left off after a long hiatus with the arrival of fan favourite John Constantine onto the Waverider to help with the Mallus problem. There has been a widespread sense of disappointment ever since the cancellation of Constantine. The casting of the character was note perfect…
