    yeah i think my main problem with this show is that it tries so hard to be dark, both figuratively and literally

    the palette is really annoying

    I don't think they can send the trainee superteam on unimportant experience building missions.

    Because all of the missions available are pretty important.

    Plus the idea was that all of these super villians don't really know the sidkicks yet, so they have no clue what to expect until they drop on them.

    Plus yeah, the league has to deal with world threatening stuff every day, the Young Justice can handle the bank robberies and nanotech and stuff.

    I liked how in the recent Ep, Robin was all freaking out when the fog was going after a Wayne Tech building and cut himself off when he was about to say that they'd be able to hack into the Batcave or something along those lines.
    In the first episode, he noted how the League's computer worked just like that of the batcave.
    yeah it's fine and dandy that he notes the lague computer is like the batcaves, but saying waynetech is a link to the batcave (i thought it was hinting brother eye because i'm dumb) is a no no because it would link robin/batman to waynetech.

    on that note, robin should be pissed with himself for revealing what school he goes to.

    Actually,
    He shouldn't be. He only said it in front of Wally, and they've said in interviews that Dick and Wally are best friends and Dick has shared his ID with him, along with something like "Just don't let Batman find out."

    When Wally tells the group that Robin isn't allowed to share his ID, he calls him Mr. Dark Glasses. Same first letters, same number of letters. So it seems likely that he's known since before the series started.

    if Wally knows Robin is Dick Grayson, then wouldn't he know that Batman is Bruce Wayne, because Dick lives with Bruce?

    So, they've got Amazo in pieces split between two identical trucks. And another half dozen also identical trucks to make it hard to track the ones with the pieces. Then they provide escorts for the two with the bits. Escorts riding brightly colored, visually similar motorcycles.

    Masterful deception there.

    Of course it doesn't matter because they never checked the bits for tracking devices

    This episode was a disappointment, despite some nice bits (Klarion).

    They used that fucking "the science-minded person has t learn about accepting the supernatural" bullshit plot.

    Writers don't seem to get that science and magic aren't two sides of the same coin. Magic is a thing that makes shit hapen. Science isn't. Science is merely a system for observing and analyzing the world around you in order to try and figure out how it works, more or less. That means that magic is subject to scientific analysis just as much as anything else, and everybody who tells the science-minded person that they should just accept the inexplicable without question is retarded.

    No.

    Just Kent Nelson and Nabu (Dr. Fate), with villains Abra Kadabra and Klarion the Witch Boy (along with his familiar, Teekl).

    Definitely a weaker episode with heavy-handed dialogue. Should have some big impact down the line, though.

    You like garbage. Less fighty and more talky is not always a bad thing, but it is a bad thing when the talky parts are all retarded strawman arguments against skepticism based on a fundamentally flawed understanding of what skepticism and science actually are.

    Bad episode.

    I think you're getting pretty hung up on that whole science/magic thing dude

    I'm all for scientific progress as well but that doesn't mean I was getting pissed at what Kids Flash was saying.

    He isn't exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, it stands to reason he'd mess that up, and the team dynamic continues to be pretty fun. Plus Dr Fate, a cool ending action scene, I liked it overall.

    It's not just Kid Flash, everyone's attitudes towards the "debate" were retarded. Everyone was constantly going "oh, well explain this with your precious science!" and calling Kid Flash out for being close-minded because he didn't blindly accept the "it's magic!" explanation, while Kid Flash was being a know-it-all douche who was just spouting off haphazard explanations for everything without even trying to examine the circumstances.

    The whole plot was one lone string of people going "You just gotta accept this stuff without thinking about it", as though magic is somehow exempt from any kind of scrutiny. That's stupid.

    This was a retarded episode.

    But it had dr.fate, and cool fight scenes! Though maybe Kent should have been looking for a new host for Dr.Fate. and maybe Wally should too. Instead of sitting it on a shelf
