just buy a gimp costume and douse the head with gasoline
Realistically, if it's a racing jump suit, it's going to be some flame retardant material, not leather.
[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;51079597]Realistically, if it's a racing jump suit, it's going to be some flame retardant material, not leather.[/QUOTE] Im, uh, not sure the character with the mystically flaming skull that uses a spiritually controlled muscle car necessarily needs a practical costume material :v:
I haven't read the comic, but I'll avoid judgement on his appearance until we get a good look at him. That reminds me, didn't abc change the time slot AOS is on this season? On an unrelated note, I like the thread's subtitle is there a way we can expand on that joke?
It's an hour later which according to the headrunner, now allows them to be "spicy" with their storylines, because in Disneyland all children go to bed at EXACTLY 10:00. :rolleyes: (again this ignoring that 70% of their viewership actually dvrs the show, so who knows when the fuck it's actually watched)

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Recast/Reshoot
Dr. Strangelove, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Chinese Market
Not too bad of a start, but last season started strong too before veering off into the preaching and the lack of showing to go with the telling.
Is Joss Whedon even involved with the show anymore apart from name only?
[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;51082197]Is Joss Whedon even involved with the show anymore apart from name only?[/QUOTE] He directed the Pilot and that's it. Thank fuck he isn't involved in anything marvel currently though
No, but his brother's in charge of the writing bullpit and he writes in a very similar style.
I take back what I said about Ghost Rider, it looks way better in motion. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0J2C_3KK8s[/media] For a TV show, that ain't bad. Would probably look better on Netflix or HBO, but still, not bad.
Having watched it in HD, it wasn't that good either; they only luminance matched it to the top of his jacket and nothing else which was kinda jarring, considering it's [I]a skull completely engulfed in hellfire[/I], hell check the thumbnail since it conveniently has actual fire and his head on either side of the frame to check.

[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;51082197]Is Joss Whedon even involved with the show anymore apart from name only?[/QUOTE] It's the same case with Lost.

I was afraid they were going to do a time skip and not show what happened between last season and where we're at now with a [sp]new director and the government taking control of Shield, as well as Daisy running out on the group.[/sp] Correct me if I forgot something but there wasn't any [sp]sexual tension between Mack and yo-yo[/sp] last season right? That felt like it came out of nowhere. On the plus side, the "box of voices inside your head" is interesting and I think Robbie Rider was done well. I'm just bummed that Samuel L Jackson isn't the director of shield again.
[QUOTE=adamsz;51083704] [sp]sexual tension between Mack and yo-yo[/sp] [/QUOTE] They've been eyeing each other up since they both came onto the show
[QUOTE=RoboChimp;51083635]Oh good, they finally found a replacement for Nick Cage.[/QUOTE] This isn't Johnny Blaze
Everything looks good aside from the skull itself. Car and transformation look good imo.
I liked the opener. [SP]I definitely think they're setting up some spirit in ADA thing[/sp]
I love the expression Skye has after "the one who decides" manifests. It's like something real from the comics finally showed up and told the bland-o TV version to fuck off. Daddy's home, bitches.
[QUOTE=Takuat;51083611][vid]https://giant.gfycat.com/ImmaterialWickedHeifer.webm[/vid][/QUOTE] That looks better but I don't understand why they have the outlines of the Metal Helmet but never use it [sp]Also it looks like he makes a pact with the devil in episode 2 and that's how he got his powers? If you're going to do that why even bother with Robbie? Why not use Blaze or Ketch?[/sp]

My guess is they're taking all of Johnny Blaze's GR and putting onto Reyes because the former is what the general audience knows about and are expecting. Essentially this is the opposite of fan service.
