Spoilers DC's Legends of Tomorrow Season 5

I like that the background Trek style crew all have mini skirts.

Also it looks like were going to get the pre-Heyworld Zari back in some form as she's seen splitting off the post-Heyworld Zari in the trailer. I wonder if she'll be a proper separate entity or if they're going to do what they did with Wells on The Flash. I kind of hope it's the former and not the latter.
 
Okay, if the Supernatural Impala was there for a film shoot, where were the cameras and lights? Even if the crew all got killed off before the Legends arrived, there should've been equipment there too. Also, why would Sara think that a bag of prop weapons would be of any use? Why were the shurikens actually sharp enough to be effective? They'd probably be made of wood or plastic.

I wonder why Sara wasn't killed by Atropos's light. I guess she's come back from the dead so many times that it just doesn't stick. Or maybe being a Paragon has something to do with it. She's a survivor of the previous universe, so maybe the thread of her life is beyond Atropos's influence.
 
All the Supernatural stuff was weird. Not only does it not make sense for that to be a show in their universe with all the dc comic references the show has had over the years but without any cameos, it felt like a waste. I expected Misha Collins to show up to interact with John.
 
Yeah, even as someone who doesn't follow Supernatural, it felt weird that the crossover was kinda limited to talking about the show, and the car. Was that even the car from the show?

Otherwise, I felt the episode had a nice balance of drama and Legendary wackyness. It was interesting that Ava's go-to idea to help Rory was to mess around with the timeline, considering where she started off. She's certainly become a Legend.

One of them, yes (I'm sure there are multiple identical ones used on the show). Apparently this was done as sort of a sideways bottle show, saving money by piggybacking off a Supernatural shoot at that location, or something like that.

I can understand it, since she never had real parents or a past of her own, so she would sympathize with the girl not having her father in her life.


Anyway, it's interesting that the supernatural rules of the totem-bearer afterlife allow someone to be preserved after being erased from the timeline as well as just killed. It's weird, though, since a rewritten-timeline version of a person is generally presumed to be the same person, the same "soul," just with changed memories and experiences.

Also, is Behrad going to be in the totem afterlife now? He wasn't wearing the totem when he died; does that matter?
 
Damn, I'm sad to see Behrad go, I was really starting to like him. I knew his days were probably numbered since the actor who plays him is just a guest star, but then this is the kind of show where dead doesn't always mean gone.
The meeting of the two Zari's was pretty interesting.
This was a nice introduction to Charlie's last sister, and the Coin Maker being the other one was a surprise.
The Supernatural stuff felt a little random, it being Supernatural didn't really seem to have much of an impact on the actual story.
I'm very curious how Sara survived Charlie's sister's attack, it feels like that's going to be important.

Well, they did say they could get him back if they restored the Loom.
 
So...much as I adore the show, I've missed entire seasons of LoT. Has Sara died since coming back through the Lazarus Pit? (I suppose others who used it have died since, so maybe that's not a viable lead. And story-wise, it happened so long ago that the writers wouldn't be using it anyway.)

An unconscious parting gift from Oliver? Some talisman/tattoo Constantine planted on her at some point? A peace offering from Damian Darhk when he left? Some sort of bond with the hell-sword (even though she wasn't carrying it when she got blasted)? Being a Paragon?

The Paragon of DESTINY?

Huh. Up against the Fates. Yeah, forget that other stuff I said.

Also, Tala Ashe is amazing. I kept forgetting both Zaris were the same actress. Her voice is even different for each character.

Also, re: Supernatural. Is the Arrowverse the same one "The French Mistake" takes place in?

Well, that depends on what you count. She's had several deaths in alternate timelines, and one near-death that Gideon was able to heal her from, as well as several presumed deaths.

https://arrow.fandom.com/wiki/Sara_Lance#Trivia
So far, Sara has been considered dead eight times and has actually died four times:
  • The first time was in "Pilot", when Sara was considered dead after the Queen's Gambit sank. In a flashback from "Crucible", Oliver realized that she is alive.
  • The second time was in a flashback from "Unthinkable" when Sara was thought to be dead by Oliver and Slade Wilson after Slade tossed her aside during a fight and she fell from the Amazo into the ocean. Oliver found out Sara survived in "Crucible" and Quentin found out in "League of Assassins" that she survived the Gambit (he, along with the rest of her family, didn't know about her surviving the Amazo). Laurel and Dinah found out in "Heir to the Demon".
  • The third time was when Sara got killed by Thea (under the control of Malcolm) in "The Calm". She was later resurrected by the Lazarus Pit in "Restoration" and her soul was returned to her body by John Constantine in "Haunted".
  • The fourth time was in an erased timeline where Sara, Laurel, and Quentin were all killed by Damien Darhk. Since Rip Hunter recruited Sara months prior to this, she and Quentin were both saved from their fates.[48]
  • The fifth time was in an erased timeline where Sara and the rest of the Legends were killed under unclear circumstances instigated by Eobard Thawne, but since Rex Tyler traveled back to warn them of this, their deaths have been erased.[66]
  • The sixth time was in "Turncoat" when Sara was "killed" by Rip (brainwashed by the Legion of Doom) snapping her neck and was thought to be dead by him and Jefferson Jackson. However, Sara's brain cells were still functioning and thus Gideon was able to heal her.
  • The seventh time was in "Doomworld" when in a rewritten reality created by the Legion of Doom using the Spear of Destiny, Sara was thought to be dead by Amaya Jiwe after they were separated in a fight against Mick, Nate, and Ray. However, as Amaya reported her apparent death to Darhk (who they worked for in the reality), Sara arrived, prompting Darhk to reply that she "never stays dead for very long".
  • The eighth time was in "Legends of To-Meow-Meow", where Constantine created several erased timelines while trying to save his boyfriend. In one notable timeline, Sara had been killed by a unicorn.

I thought she'd been resurrected at least a couple of times, but I guess not.
 
Yeah it’s padding, which I don’t get since they never exaggerated boob sizes in Star Trek. They weren’t that bad. :)

I shouldn't be surprised to find that online sources say 32b, so I'm going with padding and / or enhancement.

No, her proportions looked much the same in her sweater in this week's episode. I think it's just the effect of a close-fitting top of somewhat thick fabric. Also, that site you linked to said 34B, not 32. (And we're way too preoccupied with this question.)

Curses. Original post edited.

And, yes we are. ;)
 
I've actually been impressed how little the Arrowverse has objectified it's female characters There have been a few tight costumes and lower cut tops, but nothing over the top, and definitely not like what we used to get in the source material.
