Re: Krypton - (SyFy)
Kryponite came in many different colors and it affected Superman in different ways. Why show it exploding when the stories in this series have nothing to do with that. Besides, it was Jor-el and not his father that predicted the catastrophe and obviously from the despcription it's not about Jor-el at all.

Re: Krypton - (SyFy)
Depends on the continuity. Post-COIE, kryptonite was very rare and only green existed in the period of comics from 1986 to early 2000s. There was red krytponite in one early 90s story, but it was ultimately revealed as fake conjured by Mxyzptlk's magic. All the color kryptonite didn't start coming back until the early 2000s.

I guess it's got all of us talking about a series on SyFy, so it has that going for it, I guess. But I don't see how they're going to save budget by not having superheroes, if this is based on the Krypton shown in MoS.
What next, Atlantis? Paradise Island? Actually, I bet they get some viewers for that last one.

You can bet on a Paradise Island show if the Wonder Woman movie does anything. You could build it around Wonder Girl and play into the increasingly prevalent theme of female action leads.

Re: Krypton - (SyFy)
I would have loved the CW version.
"My name is Jor-El. For years Ii've been telling all that would listen that Krypton's time is at an end. Only one man is willing to help me, Zod, a commander in Krypton's military arm. Together we will find a way to find a new hope for Krypton."

love it.I think the Arrow show kind of stole the "beginning intro" format from Revenge, but the CW has now done it at least two more times, The Tomorrow People and now the Flash.

Re: Krypton - (SyFy)
Yes and no, being that show just sets up the premise, where in these newer shows have one distinct "hero" to root for. And they all start out (can't remember if Revenge did exactly, but Arrow, The Tomorrow People, and The Flash) with "my name is..." It is starting to become somewhat silly.

Re: Krypton - (SyFy)
David S. Goyer’s long-gestating Superman prequel Krypton is a go at Syfy. The cable network, which has been developing the project for more than a year-and-a-half, is finalizing a deal for a pilot order. Damian Kindler (Sleepy Hollow) has come on board as executive producer/showrunner, while Peaky Blinders helmer Colm McCarthy has been set to direct the pilot for Warner Horizon TV.
Goyer and Kindler are doing rewrites on the original pilot teleplay by Goyer & Ian Goldberg which was based on a story Goyer and Goldberg had penned together.

Re: Krypton - (SyFy)
I'm guessing we'll see a lot of the interstellar DC races show up on Krypton. That is probably where I would go with it.
Expect a lot, and I mean a lot, of references to Rao.

Re: Krypton - (SyFy)
How does that work out? Arrow and The Flash take place in the same universe and there was recently the crossover between The Flash and Supergirl. Kara may have not met Oliver yet but they should still be in the same universe. The only DC show I'm aware of that's separate currently is Gotham.

I'm guessing this show will be completely separate from all other DC shows, much like Gotham. So don't expect to see Kara's relatives from Supergirl show up on Krypton.

What? That's what multiverse means....characters don't ever have to meet, be part of or referenced in any of the normal storylines.

Pilot officially ordered today. If this gets picked up, my guess is they are targeting a 2017-18 premiere.
