I know NBC is going to find a way to *spoon* this up, but man I am still stoked for October 24th...

I think Constantine will be the best one of the Gotham, Agents of Shield,Arrow and Flash shows.

Just looks cooler.

So Constantine is Welsh now?

 

Who knew... :facepalm:

 

Yes, it's an absolute outrage. What will they think of next - pick a Brit to play Superman???

 

Oh, wait :baiting:

 

But Ryan is playing it as Welsh, whereas Superman was never played as a Brit.

 

Constantine's upbringing is clear - and important - and he hailed from Liverpool, not Cardiff.

 

It would be like Batman being played as good ole boy, to put that difference into context.

Interesting. I really can`t picture Bruce Wayne with a southern accent. So I get your point.

The thing is I doubt many of the TV audience will understand what your getting at.

Hollywood is known to change things around for a mainstream audience.

Why they decided to make him Welsh should be asked, so we get the answer.

Not sure. It is going to cover the same ground as Supernatural but probably be nowhere near as good.

I gather you like Supernatural. :) Is it really that good? I must confess I have never really watched it, so where should I start?

Ahhhh. It is based on the pilot, as nobody outside of the creative crew has reviewed the second episode.

 

TV review: 'Constantine’ needs work but has promise

 

Even this mixed review makes it clear it is all based on just the pilot. So maybe - hopefully - it gets better from there.

IGN's review and in a way a compliment that the show dropped the original sidekick/partner.

 

Constantine: "Non Est Asylum" Review

 

-----------------------

Once Constantine learns to embrace some of the actual terror of the tale, I feel like it'll stand on really solid ground. The CW's Supernatural of course springs to mind as a show that's done a great job with demons and angels - though it's also had plenty of other types of creatures and monsters to help it along to ten seasons.

 

Unfortunately, mystical heroes come with a lot of ground rules that need to be covered and that's mostly what this first episode did. It was like a Constantine primer of sorts. It was fun and fast, and Matt Ryan feels like he'll be a great lead, but things whizzed by too quick for any of the scares to land. Very exposition heavy. But I still liked everything I saw and want to keep watching.

-----------------------

 

Hopefully, this calls out enough of what the show creators need to set their course right.

Folks are too hard on 'origin' episodes. I didn't really dig Gotham that much until the most recent episode. Things take a bit of time to mature and develop.

I'm eager to see how Constantine shapes up. :)
