Never seen this "Warehouse" thing, but casting someone in bronze reminds me of the plot of The Mummy. You decide, for some brilliant reason, that death would be just too lenient a punishment for someone. And so you bury them alive for all eternity. Utter genius. How could something like that possibly come back to bite you in the ass? It seems that it was done even worse here. At least Imhotep stayed dead for several thousand years.

I guess writing plots that don't hinge on people making idiotic mistakes is somewhat harder, since you need to actually make plans that work. And making a working plan for world domination isn't easy. And having the heroes counter a working world domination plan isn't easy either, since working plans are required to show some resilience to meddling by protagonists. A lot simpler to just have the bad guy use his turn-metals-into-soft-useless-gold-ray for robbing banks.

As for Batman killing the Joker... Maybe he's genre-savvy enough to know that he'd just come back anyway? Hasn't the Joker died several times already? Really, there's only so many times someone can fall from the roof of a building that then collapses on him before people around him begin noticing a pattern. At least they usually know about it when he escapes from Arkham Asylum.

Plus, shooting an enemy that just surrendered DOES kind of seem like a dick move, even if you know they are going to escape the minimum security prison you put them into. Maybe Batman should use some of his vast fortunes to improve the security a bit?

I watched two episodes of warehouse 13 once. Found it sucky, TBH

This wouldn't be so much of an issue if it was done good, but most of the time it happens i just know what's coming, and again most of the time i end up shoutng the above.Some freshness would really be welcome.

And don't worry, it turns out:

He repents before dying from his blood turning to acid because H.G. Wells (who is actually a sexy chick) cuts off some sort of crystal that kept his blood from turning into acid.Or does that happen in the same episode and you allready know it??

One thing I've read (regarding the comics themselves) is that the Joker was turned into more of a joke/less-dangerous character simply because it would be too silly for him to be super-dangerous and psychotic yet allowed to live and come back constantly.

Some people just don't wan't to put a bullet into another's head.

Stupid I know.

This is why the world needs Conservatives.

Nikov: Can we not have you doing your inane and irrelevant political derailing, at least this time, and just cut that line of discussion short now?

Done and done.

Both of you stop it, derail somewhere else.

Hmm.. I remember this comic strip where everyone had really big ideas and then someone said. "I'll just shoot him." The teacher (Evil academy) said well done.

YOU NEED ME ON THAT WALL.

[Nikov]

YOU NEED ME ON THAT WALL.

My point exactly.

[Earthquake Damage]

YOU NEED ME ON THAT WALL.

I love you so much.

Seriously.  That post?  Perfect!

[nenjin]

My point exactly.

So how IS the wall anyways, Nikov?

Cold, the food sucks, you can't smoke, boring as hell, and interrupted by the ocassional purpose-filled moment of "this is what I came for".

Sort of like a slow day at the help desk, with bullets.

[mainiac]

I'd join the marines tomorrow if the fuckers at MEPS would stop fucking up my application and let me join already.  I'm not conservative.  Why do I need you on a wall?  I called dibs on that wall you mutherfucker.
