The exterior shots for that location (in Indiana Jones) are real; it's the facade of Petra, in southern Jordan.

You're probably right that Arrow is referencing that site, at least obliquely.

I've been down on this season, but the sizzle reel looks like things are going to come together nicely. It felt like they've just been treading water and we're at least being promised some new major plot points.

From the trailer it looks like Ollie or his doppelganger starts killing mooks, so lance's reaction seems to be appropriate. Get hype!

By this point I want Oliver to become Ra's Al Ghul just to give me a reason to care about him. He's not likable, he's not sympathetic, he constantly makes horrible decisions that bite him in the rear end yet he never learns from it, he keeps acting like he was superior to everyone else, and now he risked his life entirely because of a petty grudge despite his whole "I won't fail the city" speech to everyone when Brick attacked.

But hey, seems Lance's finally learning who the Arrow is, and is not happy. I'm okay with that.

Lance must be pretty pissed at Oliver as well, since he was complicit in hiding Sara's death.

Magic and the supernatural, eh? I could get behind that. Bring on Zatanna or something, that would be fun. I've gotta say, I really like the trend these comic shows are setting of having a separate program to run during the midseason break, it's really cool.

Guggenheim has said before he wants Vixen, both the character and the show, to represent the magical side of comics in the CW verse (with Flash being science and Arrow being street). It's one of the things that makes me pretty sure she is going to show up in live action as well.

The thing I drew from the quote in the article is that Guggenheim wants to have magic and the supernatural in Arrow proper, not in another spinoff.

Here is the interview I was thinking of, and the particular quite.

Guggenheim posted:

And Vixen's such a great character. First of all, she represents magic, which is an area that we haven't explored on either of the two shows just yet. One thing we're always saying is, "'Flash' is very different from 'Arrow,' 'Arrow' is very different from 'Flash.'" If "Arrow" is crime and "The Flash" is science, "Vixen" has a big magic component.

My take away was that magic in Arrow will be like superpower. There is limited superpowers on Arrow, even though that is what Flash is all about. They intent to introduce magic into Arrow and establish, "yes it as part of the world", but at the same time it will only have a limited presence from time to time. In contrast, Magic and magical elements will be a much larger focus in Vixen. Though your right in that it sounds like Guggenheim also wants magic and the occult to have a bigger presence in Arrow relative to superpowers.

I think if they want to introduce magic start with acknowledging how bullshit Oliver's cure anything herbs have been.

That's basically how the Trinity is with WW being the magic side even if not to the extent of Constantine, Zatanna or Dr Fate. Arrow being street though means his problems are much more grounded with grittier results.
