For the record, the title is STUPID.
But this trailer looks freaking AWESOME.
I had been wondering what they were going to do with Sarah Lance, deceased ... Lazarus pit is not the call I would have made, but okay. In the experience of the TV show, the people who go into the pits are either newly dead, or just mostly dead. A year-long dead? Not so much. It'll be interesting to see this particular unstable element to this team.
The team .... I knew, from the moment they brought in Superman to play Ray Palmer, he was going to be interesting. When they used the line "It's a bird .... it's a plane ... it's my boyfriend," I knew they were having fun. And, frankly, I think Brand Routh is a better Clark Kent now than he was in Superman Returns.
Bringing in Captain Cold and Heatwave ... yeah, I think this was "Hey, Mr. Miller, we love your Capt. Cold. Would you like a tv show?" He's sardonic and as cynical as hell, and it's a wonderful contrast.
Also, I like Firestorm. And Garber as Dr. Martin Stein? Wonderfully sardonic.
Hawkgirl ... no idea.
Though bringing in Arthur Darville (Doctor Who's Rory) as, essentially, a time lord who dresses like John Constantine? I'm good.
Also: Atom, Canary, Firestorm, Capt. Cold, Heatwave, Hawkgirl, and Rip Hunter. They at least have the number right. They are the Magnificent Seven.
They can have extra fun when Dr Who has Old Home Week. THey frequently will give some reciprocal fan service. Now all we have to do is figure out where Rory got the Tardis. ;)
