Roy hasn't done much parkour lately and has been more effective. Glad to see that! I hope he doesn't get shuffled off to the void again with Ollie back.

Seriously, why haven't they gotten him on Raw yet? (He posted a picture of himself with Daniel Bryan and Brie not too long ago, too.)

I don't give a poo poo if Felicity is right or not, because she's boring and doesn't do anything but sit at a fake computer screen while I want to see Oliver and Merlyn fight Ra's together.

imperialparadox posted:Personally, on the episode where Merlyn walked into the Arrowcave and Diggle pulled the two guns on him, it would have been awesome if Diggle would have just started firing at Malcolm Merlyn, Mass Murder Who Just Infilitrated Our Base. Even if Merlyn got away (which is fine, because Barrowman rocks), it would have felt better, because Merlyn is one of the biggest enemies of the city, a terrorist, an all-around horrible guy. Everything they're doing with Merlyn is everything they're doing with Deathstroke except back then they usually did the smart thing Even down to the "Oh poo poo the bad guy put a surveillance camera in our secret hideout." That was a big deal when Slade did it.

I can sort of understand everything they are doing as its all about protecting Thea. If the league did not have a huge rear end target on her then this would not even be an issue. Family makes you do stupid things.

Ok the "doing this really dumb stuff to protect Thea" thing would work except Ras doesn't know about Thea and while Merlyn said something about having his contacts spread the word if he dies or something (he did say something like that right?) but in the last episode he said he's not been in contact with them since his "death". To be honest I always assumed Ras didn't give a poo poo about Sara, didn't he even say something to that effect when he found out she was dead, "She never was truly one of us" I think? Then they just take Merlyn at his word that Ras will come after Thea as well as Merlyn despite that he used mind controlling drugs to make her kill Sara? I dunno, just makes them look like credulous idiots and makes Ras look really inconsistent and stupid (he's also very bad at stabbing people I guess so that makes sense). thebardyspoon fucked around with this message at 20:19 on Feb 6, 2015 |

He does not know yet, and that was the whole reason he went and tried to kill Ras. There is also the fact that Thea is his daughter and they are pissed at him for going against their orders. bobkatt013 fucked around with this message at 20:26 on Feb 6, 2015 |

The best thing about this episode was that a lot of smaller things are coming together and it feels like it's not just about the Arrow anymore. Like Brick says, "How many of you drat costumes are there?"  They show Canary and Arsenal out and about, people responding to them, Lance joking that Arsenal is a dopey name, it's great.

I actually thought this was a trick to sick Merlyn on Brick because how could Merlyn have hacked Felicities webcam and she not know. Has Merlyn ever even shown any skills at computers?

That seems to be where this whole plotline is eventually heading.

Ugh, maaan, they've announced a new Black Canary comic that looks like everything that Black Canary should be and it's just making me sad that Laurel will never be this Black Canary. Like, again, I like Laurel right now but she's simply Not That, she's just a completely different type of character, and it's to her detriment most of the time.

Jerusalem posted:I've been pretty irritated by the way the show has seemingly glossed over the fact Merlyn literally and gleefully murdered 500 people (and intended to kill many, many more), and characters going all "Woah I never thought of it that way" when somebody like Thea says,"Actually he was nice to me this one time" was pissing me off. I thought things had gone way too far over the top when Ollie shook his hand and Thea said,"Thanks for being cool about this" when the guy MURDERED 500 PEOPLE , so to have Felicity just straight up call Ollie out on this and completely refuse to accept Merlyn is the lesser of two evils or that they need to forgive and forget was like a breath of fresh air to me.

Amell's hosting a Q&A at tomorrow's Fan Days at Dallas Comic-Con and I still have no idea what to ask him. Kinda feel like asking him "Will we ever find out the truth behind the "death and resurrection of Oliver" so I can post it here, but other than that, I can't think of anything else, besides asking him about bringing Ra's to TV, or what villain/hero he would like to have brought onto the show and who he would like to cast. E: Behind the Scenes look at  BOXING GLOVE ARROWThey had originally planned to have him shoot an arrow and skewer the glove mid-flight. They decided to go for the pose though, which was way better and more fluid. Synthwave Crusader fucked around with this message at 04:12 on Feb 7, 2015 |

Also, his entire threat is ridiculous. "Do this thing for me, or after my death, I'll offer up my only living heir to be murdered by an insane despot." He's pretty sociopathic, but even a sociopath would probably want their progeny to survive, if only out of narcissism. If that's not a bluff, and he legitimately doesn't care if Thea lives or dies, what is the point of his entire plotline with her? He has at least as much invested in Thea surviving as Ollie does.
