THE ODYSSEY TO PERFECTION
As I write this I remember the first time I saw this episode....and that moment in it,,,,which is easily one of the most PERFECTLY-WRITTEN, PERFECTLY-ACTED SCENE/WORK OF ART IN THE HISTORY OF ART AND ITS FUTURE OF ALL ETERNITY! And I can say every single word of the previous sentence again, even though It sounds absolutely insane to the uninitiated, because that's exactly what it is. And I'm so goddamn glad that I was there to see it when it first premiered to this world.
The FIRST SCENE, THE FLASHBACKS, THE ACTING, THE ACTING, THE ACTING AND OH, THE ACTING, THE WRITING, THE WRITING, THE WRITING, AND OH, THE WRITING, THE CINEMATOGRAPHY, THE INSANELY INTENSE INTENSITY THAT NO OTHER SHOW COULD EVER PULL OFF (EXCEPT THE FLASH), THE BRILLIANT PLOT THAT NO OTHER CREATIVE TEAM THAN THE ONE OF ARROW COULD EVER EVEN COME UP WITH, THE PERFECTION THAT IS THIS SERIES AND A PARAGON OF THIS PERFECTION THAT IS THIS EPISODE...I.... feel like it'd almost be an insult to even attempt to describe their perfection in words...in thoughts...in ANYTHING that isn't showing this PERFECT EPISODE ITSELF!
And, so I'm not going to do that. If you're stupid enough, miserable enough, idiotic enough to think that this show isn't one of, if not, THE GREATEST SHOW OUT THERE, then I honestly feel pity upon you. That you're not able to even grasp at this show's perfection is,,,,pitiful. But alas everyone gets a second chance. If you're one of those sad people i just described you can change...and you should....and I sure as hell hope you DO.
This show is easily the GREATEST PIECE OF ART THAT IS,HAS, AND EVER WILL BE CREATED & THE *ONLY* COMPETITION IT HAS FOR THAT RANK IS 'The Flash' (2014-) & this PERFECT EPISODE IS A PARAGON TO THAT FACT! WATCH IT OR BE ONE OF THOSE PITIFUL PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T EVEN WATCH THE GREATEST PIECE OF ART TO EVER BE CREATED!
