Legends of Tomorrow Review: Season 1 Episode 6 "Star City 2046"

Legends of Tomorrow Season 1 Episode 6

“Star City 2046”

Synopsis:

A malfunction sends the Waverider to 20146 Star City where theta faces a future in which they fail to stop Savage and return home.

Review:

With the team stranded in a 2046 Star City, they will need to work to repair the Waverider. In order to get it up and running, they need to find a prototype which was developed by Palmer Tech AKA Smoak Technology. With Rip and Sara out looking or the tech needed they come across the Green Arrow, but not the same one Sara used to know. Connor Hawk is now wearing the hood. 

Connor is able to assist, and take them to the old hide out of Team Arrow. This is where they find a one armed Oliver, who was believed to be dead the entire time. After Connor was taken by Deathstroke, Sara convinces Olive to suite back up to save Diggle’s Son.

Final Thoughts:

Greg Berlanti just knows how to give the fans exactly what they want. Obviously there were some twist but in some ways its understandable changes. Instead of Connor being Olivers son, he is the son of Diggle. In many ways this makes sense due to the fact that they don’t want to give away anything from Arrow. 

It was awesome to see Old Man Oliver, even if its a “Fake” future. I have to say, this episode didn’t disappoint at all. It delivered in every way. The geek side of me always gets excited when each of these shows tie in the music from each other show. It give it that added excitement to the scene, almost like its a nod to the fans to acknowledge the crossover.

Once again I must say with each passing week I find it harder to root for Rip Hunter. His character is becoming more and more a distraction from the show but is always saved by professor Stein and Snart.

I give this episode Two Thumbs Up, let us know what your thoughts of the episode were and leave a comment below.

Legends of Tomorrow Review: Season 1 Episode 4 "White Knights"

Legends of Tomorrow Season 1 Episode 4

“White Knights”

Synopsis:

When Vandal Savage retreats behind the Iron Curtain in the early 1980’s, a string of Nuclear scientist’s Begin to mysteriously disappear the team follows Vandal’s trail straight into the heart of the soviet union in attempt to find the next target.

Review:

The team breaks into the pentagon in order to find a redacted file to learn the location of Vandal Savage. Once retrieved, the team learns they will need to travel to the Soviet Union. Ray tries to bond with the Soviet Scientist Valentina Vostock, when he fails its up to Snart to save the day. By stealing Valentina’s key card they are lead to a lab where a nuclear experiment is going on, The team learns that Savage is trying to create an army of Soviet Firestorms. The episode ends with Stein, Rory, and Palmer being taken hostage by Savages men.

Final thoughts:

This episode was filled with a lot, for Kendra needing to learn to embrace her inner goddess to Rip being chased down by time masters. It felt very rushed and didn’t seem to have the same flow which we saw with the first 3 episodes.

We know that the team will need to be saved, but the question which needs to be answered is what type of effect will Stein experience due to him taking on all the energy from the Nuclear core?

This was by far a down episode, it seems that with a 13 episode story arc, the creators are forced to fill each episode with a lot of different storylines. The positive from the episode has to be the growth of Rory as heatwave

I give this episode One Thumbs Up. I am looking forward to the next few episodes to see how everything ties together. Let us know what your thoughts were and leave a comment below.
