BrianWilly posted:It was pretty great how Ray showed how easy it is to figure out every aspect of the Arrow's operation if you just pay a bit of attention to stuff. He was shown doing research on Ollie when Felicity walked into the room. I assume he did a known associates check too. Black guy with gun Chick Red Archer Considering the only people Ollie really hang out with fit that description wellllllll

Does anyone really think Floyd is dead? I mean the rule I have learned is unless you see their body bleeding and battered, they are not dead. (Even then this isn't true always.)

If he was alive, I'm sure Waller would know because of the magical neck bomb implant. Or the writers didn't think of that. (He did it to get away from Cupid)

"Suicidal Tendencies" has a huge number of scenes were people cross town to deliver, at most, 3 or 4 sentences of information. Isn't the point of dramatic scenes to get us in late, and then get us out with the implication there's further discussion?

I'd love to take the Ray's office scene and juxtapose it with 3 minutes, on either end, of Oliver riding the elevator. Not even crossing town to the office building...just checking his watch.

Well season 2 was bad rear end. Really really enjoyed it. The last 3 to 4 episodes were so intense. Im aware is on purpose but i like the way the island flashbacks paralleled the events in Startling City. I was pretty drat shocked to see Amanda Waller at the end.

I think Chuck handled it pretty well. The conversation basically went: Morgan: Oh wow so you finally pulled the trigger and killed a bad guy. Chuck: Yeah, I put a couple of rounds in the 0 ring, then he fell off a bridge. There's no way he could survive being shot multiple times, then falling off a bridge. He's definitely dead. Morgan: Oh so did you find his corpse? Chuck: No point, I shot him a bunch then he fell into a river so he's definitely dead. Morgan: OK, Have you watched anything ever? The guy who falls into the river always comes back from the dead. thrakkorzog fucked around with this message at 10:59 on Mar 27, 2015 |

TheLakers posted:I love TV Lawton, but let's not get crazy. Seriously. Will Smith is a lot of things, but a bad actor isn't one of them. Just because After Earth bombed doesn't mean he's no longer a crazy good actor. Also, this isn't the TV Lawton's fault, but the PTSD back story scenes were goddamn awful this week. Clichéd, clumsily written garbage. Will Smith playing a PTSD-addled veteran who murders for hire sounds excellent, and a feature film runtime to explore it sounds even better. I'm late to this party, but I'm surprised there are so many people attached to the comic Atom. I have no familiarity with the character at all, outside of "DC version of Ant-Man." And yeah, that sounds dumb. Brandon Routh playing a nerdier, low-rent Iron Man is amazing, and if they were denied Ted Kord...fine, whatever, Kroger-brand Blue Beetle sounds better to me than a "comic-accurate" Atom any day.

Atom does poo poo a little crazier than ant man, like shrinking to a subatomic level or walking around in someone brain. One of his successors Ryan Choi becomes a professor at a swinging college and keeps getting in wacky hijinks and the villain Giganta keeps trying to gently caress him.

[Indeterminate amount of time later] Wife: Ever since you came back from the war, you've been different.

It stripped me of my soul and left me a broken husk of a man. *Pulls gun on wife* Wife: Well now your mental illness has cost you your family and your good name. Enjoy prison dirtbag! I don't know what you're talking about, that was an Oscar quality scene right there.

What's great about this episode is how often the juxtapose Oliver not killing someone and Diggle killing dozens of people. Also, I love the Senator's plan. 1.build the hospital in the Soviet bloc 2.get captured 3. Talk my way free 4. Ride that hostage negotiator love all the way to the White House!

Is there a recommended watch order for Arrow Season 3 and Flash? Or is it ok to watch Arrow straight through and then Flash straight through? EDIT: Did not expect Sara to get killed in Episode 1

You can watch them anyway you want outside of the crossover episodes. They're #8 of the season for both shows. Flash comes first there, then Arrow. Otherwise there's another pair of episodes where Felicity visits Barry and then isn't in the first half hour or so of the accompanying Arrow episode, but it doesn't really matter if you see her return from that trip first.

Apart from the first episode of each (which has a little crossover bit between them) main thing to be aware of is that the big crossover event is episode 8 of both series, with The Flash episode preceding the Arrow episode. So you probably want to work with that in mind, do episodes 1 to 7 of both as you please, the episode 8s as intended then carry on as you like from there. Looks like there's probably going to be another crossover set of episodes by the end of the series as well.

I gotta chime in and say how hilarious it was that Diggle immediately scared the gently caress out of Ray when they first met. "You hurt her and they'll never find your body."

JohnSherman posted:Lawton: I've come home from the war and am so happy to finally have the chance to be normal. The weirdest thing about the clumsy flashbacks was how well the show has handled Oliver's PTSD in the past. They've touched on it this year, too, to great effect. Oliver's missing five years didn't just change him, it also fundamentally damaged him. And to go from that nuance to "beer-swilling veteran yelling at kid with You Don't Understand"s was pretty jarring.

They've even gone to lengths to show that when there's something sketchy about his orders of who to kill or why he fights against it. He's a soldier and is prepared to kill armed terrorists holding hostages or someone with a gun to his friend's head, but he's not going to be executing many people in cold blood like Ollie was doing in season 1.

Ollie is always in the same life-or-death situations, though. But when there are a bunch of guys shooting machine guns at Ollie, he makes sure to shoot them in the shoulder or knock them out somehow. Diggle is like "I ain't no superhero. That poo poo's crazy" and just blasts 'em in the chest. Diggle is a soldier.
