NBC's The Cape Trailer - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

Agent Bond · 12-31-2010, 02:06 AM

This show is NBC's apology for fu**ing us over on Heroes.

Samus Aran · 12-31-2010, 09:34 AM

^ And how exactly did they do that, other than seasons 2-4 being godawful?

P@t_Mtl · 01-09-2011, 12:57 PM

Tonight at 9 pm on NBC

every time i see a commercial for it i wonder, "whoever okay'd this got fired, right?" it's so laughably bad

I agree it looks like someone decided to make a tv show out of mysterion from south park and just out right ripoff batman at the same time

IGN rated the pilot a 3/10 so I wouldn't get my hopes up for this show....unless it completely changes by the next episode lol.

X12Celtics3 · 01-09-2011, 01:47 PM

Trailer looked beyond stupid to me.

BluLobsta · 01-09-2011, 06:27 PM

Well, if they pull a chip out of Summer's head, then you know they're grasping at straws

kernel_thai · 01-09-2011, 09:34 PM

Actually, Summer was the only part of this I found interesting. Maybe after week two there will be an Orwell spin-off show.

twinkie · 01-10-2011, 03:08 AM

well, that was beyond bad..

PS3-Playb3yond · 01-10-2011, 03:47 AM

It wasn't great but I still found it.....entertaining. I had nothing else to watch lol.

KilloWertz · 01-10-2011, 03:59 AM

I was entertained. I'm in for next week's episode.

crystal_sun · 01-10-2011, 05:19 AM

After 1 hour and 20 minutes of this...I think that's it for me...I can't watch it anymore of it. 3/10 ranking is a well deserved rating....

ChiefSequatchie · 01-10-2011, 06:03 AM

First post.

I actually liked this and I have to say a good bit. I liked the cast and I didn't really think it was all that cheesy either they didn't try to put the character in a real city and I think it showed if anything that a 1-hour Batman show can be done releasticly.

STARSCREAM · 01-10-2011, 07:40 AM

Wife and I liked it. I've now set the series to record on the DVR. I thought the the whole cast was great. Summer Glau is freakin' smokin hot in this!

Mouse · 01-10-2011, 01:51 PM

I like the show. At first I thought it would be very unbelievable and unrealistic but it surprised me. And it's like the opposite of Batman... Bruce Wayne is rich and can afford all sorts of gadgets. The Cape basically has nothing now that he lost his family, friends, job... his entire life is gone. It's not like he can just waltz back into his old job after a night of crime fighting. If you're going to make a comparison to another person my vote is on The Punisher. Another guy who lost his family and doesn't have super powers.

ManUtd · 01-10-2011, 03:40 PM

Saw the pilot and thought it was just okay. I'll watch the next episode and decide from there if I want to continue watching this show.

CYMBOL · 01-10-2011, 03:58 PM

Oh, thought this was on tonight - guess I missed it.

It's on again tonight to.

Tyger · 01-10-2011, 06:43 PM

I liked it. I like that it doesn't seem to take itself too seriously, which is smart.

Summer Glau

Oh, but I have to say the most unrealistic thing in the first two episodes has to be an empty restaurant kitchen during dinner service.

WyldeMan45 · 01-10-2011, 09:09 PM

Just watched this, definitely seems like a show kids would love. Not quite sure what to make of it, it's rather uneven and poorly written at best. Also still not a fan of Lyons as the lead, have never cared for him and still think they could have cast someone better.

That's the most unrealistic thing in the pilot for you? What about the Cape and how quickly he learned "Ninja Vanish!" or super cape that grabs people, or reptile man? Those are fine for you?
