The new millennium brought us Smallville, a show that followed a young Clark Kent through adolescence.  Darker and more angst-ridden than previous looks into the Superman mythos, Smallville was a smash hit and ran for ten seasons. One of the principles the producers held to was “no flights / no tights” until the final season.  It set a new tone for superhero TV shows.

The same theme was followed in 2002 in Birds of Prey, but the TV-watching population had only enough geek in it for one show, and BoP died a premature death.  Likewise, in 2006, Aquaman never made it past a pilot episode.

This year, we have a new superhero show to geek out over in the CW’s Arrow. Arrow will follow the adventures of billionaire playboy Oliver Queen who dons a green hood...

Not to give away too much of the plot, there are some really cool effects, and even some un-expected super-natural elements.

There are a few things about the film that stood out as not only comical but somewhat flawed and confusing. Namely the scene where Seth, played to
perfection by Paul Dano (Cowboys & Aliens) crying out to Joe with snot in his nose, pan away, no snot, pan away, snot, pan away no sn...
