I'd say that Arrow handles Ollie's progression in two stages: first, there's the flashback arcs, which directly handle Ollie's progression as a fighter and show how he got his skillset. In the Starling storyline, however, Ollie has more or less peaked, with his advances in combat ability largely being handled via his use of newer trick arrows; instead, the focus there is on Ollie's progression as a human being. When Ollie returned from the island, he was a massive piece of poo poo with absolutely no regard for human life. In his mind, there was only the mission. While Ollie is unarguably still a bad person, he's slowly but surely become less of a monster, and the focus of this season seems to be finally letting Ollie be a human being alongside being the Arrow.

Even Oliver is subject to the law of diminishing returns

Your heart is on the side of the chest he was not stabbed in. So just a lung got punctured.

You find many emergency surgeons hanging out on obscure mountains? I'm sure Ollie can just walk off that punctured lung and multiple broken bones. NBD

Dr. Quinn
Dr. Strange
Dr. Hurt
Dr. Crane
Dr. Psycho
Dr. Sofen
Dr. Samson
Dr. Bong
Dr. Faustus

No fuckin way, there is a Dr. Bong? That loving owns.

It's apparently possible that Supergirl, despite airing on CBS, will be able to crossover with Arrow and Flash. Awesome.

If I remember right as part of the 1st season when Lance was trying to track down the Arrow they mentioned that they had sourced some of the parts (the shaft maybe?) but that it was just going to Queen Consolidated Applied Sciences.

Just catching up, Laurel jumping off the loving building with no hope but Oliver grabbing her is pretty impressive.

That made me groan pretty loud. For some reason I just do not like Laurel as The Black Canary. The nightstick is just stupid compared to Sarah's staff. That and her pose with the staff behind her back just seemed more...competent? I dunno.

What does Oliver call himself in that promo? I understood the first part "Al-Shaheed" but what was that second part? Also people are already flipping out about how that lady at the end might be Talia.

When I plug that name into google it hits on The Marytr's memorial which seems kinda lovely considering Roy is probably getting shanked in prison on Oliver's behalf.

Maybe a native speaker can clarify if that's accurate? Or if it's this http://islamqa.info/en/11194 I'm going to laugh my rear end off.

I did not know that Jai Courtney was playing Captain Boomerang in the Suicide Squad movie. Somehow Varro from Spartacus ended up being the most successful how did that happen?!

I still think DC gets more poo poo than they deserve. My bet is that WB is making all these hosed up decisions. If WB tells DC they're going to do something them DC has to do it. If WB wants a movie with DC characters then they get it. Nor do they give a gently caress about existing shows. Even if the flash movie is a total bomb it will still generate more money than a wildly successful show.

Even if the movie makes negative money?

Due to the magic of Hollywood accounting everything makes negative money. A particularly egregious example would be Harry Potter. On paper the entire franchise lost money. When the studios get sued for things that would require them to open their books they'll always settle. Even if it totally flatlines in the US they'll still make the money back in international distribution, product licensing

I kind of hope they minimize crossovers going forward, neither show needs it to thrive and they really don't mix well for all the reasons you describe

barry's scene in nanda parbat was some bad poo poo, man

If I recall that scene was necessary because of the scheduling that caused The Flash and Arrow to be out of sync with each other. The producers weren't happy about it either. Ollie showing up in Central was as dumb as Barry showing up in Nanda Parbat. The actual crossover episode was fantastic, except for the part where they just fought then magically caught the guy and high fived.

Not being a DC comics guy I get the sense that Firestorm maybe weird to incorporate to not WIN EVERY FIGHT USE FIRESTORM.

Thats the kind of thing you just have to ignore. Just like you have to ignore that when Barry punches someone at Mach 1 it doesn't liquefy both Barry and the person on the other end of the punch.
