Not too long ago, The CW announced its complete list of season finale dates for their 2015/2016 lineup, which consisted of ten shows.

iZombie will be the first to bow out this year with a two-hour second season finale on April 12. Popular horror drama The Vampire Diaries will complete its seventh season on May 13, and based on the announcement it sounds like an eighth season is more likely than not. Its sister show The Originals will bring its third season to a close a week later on May 20.

As for the The CW's biggest hit, The Flash, it will close out its second season on May 24, in an episode that will likely feature the much-awaited showdown between The Scarlet Speedster & Zoom as well as plant seedlings for what's to come in season 3. Arrow Supernatural will follow suit on May 25, ending their fourth and eleventh seasons, respectively. Flash/Arrow spin-off DC's Legends Of Tomorrow will see its freshman season come to a close on May 19.

@Maguie777 - why would you encourage someone to literally [frick] an arrow? That is violent and disturbing. I can't imagine someone [frick]ing an arrow or vice versa.

@KingJazza - It’s got the 3rd Highest ratings for the network. I suspect it will return with some tweaks to bring the reportedly prohibitive costs down.

@PrincessLeather - how many years will you be by then ?

Just curious. A lot of male fans on here are between 10 - 50

But I am curious about the scarce female fans age range

@KikinGonzalez - lol I imagine a bunch of 50 year old guys sitting in dark rooms eating snacks and typing away at their keyboards. I will be 30 :)

@PrincessLeather - hahaha probably that is the way it is!

Good! I am a little bit older than you, this year I will be 35

It is strange that you are a comic book fan, there are just a few female fans out there, what are your favorite comics/characters/movies?
PrincessLeather

@KikinGonzalez - Well, Batman and Rogue were my first favorite characters. I remember growing up with Burtons Batman (Jack Nicholson's Joker is forever my joker. Forever!) and then the cartoon animated series. Same with the X-men cartoons in the 90's. I'd watch them with my dad and read his old and now gone collection.So I picked up all of his nerd qualities- love of martial arts, sports, comics and sfy. I love Superman because of his powers and the fact that he's more Human than us most of the time. Now I know more characters, more stories.

The Avengers and The first Spiderman movies 1&2, were my favorite movies but I think this year will change that line up.

Yes, I am very strange lol. Not into the real housewhores of wherever. Gimme some badass kicking peoples butts and frickin shi! up.

Man, they really stretch these seasons out. That's why I prefer AMC and Netflix.

Anyone else watch the Flash and LOT, but not Arrow? I love both shows but it's annoying having to look up Arrow characters.

And X-Men: Apocalypse on May 27...

We can take a breather for June and July before Suicide Squad starts in August.

Getting pretty intense keeping up with everything DC and Marvel

How the filmmakers are managing Henry Cavill’s more complicated Man of Steel

In “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” Zack Snyder continues to redefine Superman for the 21st century, as he did in “Man of Steel” in 2013. Some fans didn’t like it then—will they come around now?



The character, played by Henry Cavill in both films, is still faster than a speeding bullet and more powerful than a locomotive. He’s still a refugee from Krypton who grew up in Kansas and works at the Daily Planet.

He has always been the boy scout in blue tights, so it was unsettling for many to watch him kill his adversary, General Zod, and not do more to rescue bystanders while Metropolis crumbled. It was like readers of “To Kill a Mockingbird” learning that Atticus Finch is a racist in Harper Lee’s “Go Set a Watchman.”

“I don’t know if we’re 100% there yet, but we’re definitely on the road to bringing the world a modern Superman that they can understand, that they can relate to,” says Mr. Snyder, the director. He knows the culture has changed. “Have we lost our innocence alongside him? Maybe a little.”

Superman first appeared in 1938, spawning a superhero craze just as America was about to teeter from the Great Depression into World War II. “Every other superhero that’s out there is, in a way, a riff on Superman, and that includes Batman,” says Gene Luen Yang, who writes the current version of Superman for DC Comics.

Early Superman writers and editors developed an ethos for the character that included no killing, no quitting and always protecting others. Larry Tye, author of a 2012 history of Superman, thinks “Man of Steel” got some things right but still violated some taboos. “There are certain basic things I say you don’t mess with after 75 years, and one of them is his caring about the little people who are getting hurt as he’s waging the big battle,” he said.

“Batman v Superman” gets this, and incorporates the criticism of its predecessor’s mass destruction into its plot.

One of the earliest scenes in the new movie envisions the climax of “Man of Steel” from the earthbound perspective of Bruce Wayne, Batman’s billionaire alter ego, as he rushes to save people below the city-flattening brawl between Superman and Zod. Batman ( Ben Affleck) rages at Superman’s omnipotence and lack of accountability: If thousands died in this cataclysm, what’s to stop millions from dying the next time?

Mr. Affleck sees the conflict between Superman and Batman as a reflection of managing fear in a post-9/11 world.

“That’s a very hard thing to escape, that urge to just feel that fear and say in order to protect ourselves and our families we’ve got to [be] more merciless than our enemies, or forgo some of our principles that make us who we are,” he says.

“I’m not just spouting liberal platitudes. That’s the tendency everybody has: liberals, conservatives, whoever.”

Mr. Snyder wants to make it clear that his Superman, despite all the gray areas and grit, remains a hero. In “Batman v Superman” the character is more than a fighter: He’s depicted as an angelic figure, bathed in light, who rescues people from fires, explosions and floods.

“Being good has not gone out of style. It’s still cool,” Mr. Snyder says. “We haven’t gotten that jaded yet.”
