Some Numbers posted:I enjoyed Brandon Routh's Ray Palmer a lot. I hope he and Felicity keep the tech fight going on for a while. Sarah is Laurel's sister who was friends with Tommy. It's not unlikely. I'm pretty mad they killed Sarah that way. Shot and tossed in a dumpster. lovely way to kill off her charachter

Ugh, I went and swam for an hour and I'm still mad. Arrow, you have failed this C(a)ity Also, Barry talking to Ollie on the rooftop gets way more tragic. When Ollie says "I've made mistakes" Felicity and him just split and Sara is getting pincushioned. Its Rinaldo fucked around with this message at 06:45 on Oct 9, 2014 |

Stayne Falls posted:Just because it's a shocking sucker punch death doesn't mean it was poorly written. I think the only reason y'all are saying that is because there was 0 resolution afterward. We should probably reserve judgment till the next episode at least. Getting shot three times while looking quizzical then falling into a dumpster sure was a good way to die! Actually, no, it was a cheap moment to give everyone else character development.

DFu4ever posted:Honestly, I'm so tired of this term. It's watered down to the point of uselessness. Every time a female character dies in a show with a male main character, they've now been fridged. Why doesn't this apply to male characters that die solely to motivate or move the main male character's story forward? Making characters exist to die to give others growth is a poo poo thing and Shado and Sara deserved better. Moira's death by contrast was awesome because not only did they make an entire episode around reminding us of a key part of her character (do anything to protect her family) that her getting stabbed by Slade was a great moment if a horrifying one. If Sara had been killed in the last episode of last season as some sort of statement either on her doubting her ability to be heroic or part of her giving into her darker parts that would have been fine. Taking three to the chest and limply falling over pales compared to Moira or Tommy. Its Rinaldo fucked around with this message at 02:08 on Oct 10, 2014 |

^^^Taking out Sarah by shooting her while she stood there gawking really doesn't say anything for the villain. Good job being better at archery than Season 1 Flashback Ollie I guess?Aphrodite posted:Cool. They didn't do that. Yeah, that was more a response to the idea that some characters exist to die. I think that's dumb writing and bad narrative. Sarah wasn't one of those, which actually makes me madder because I don't agree with how they handled it, as far as this episode goes. JohnSherman posted:Okay, I'm not happy that Sara died, but you're completely ignoring that Tommy's death was pretty much the epitome of "dying for character growth." gently caress, Ollie even says so in the opening narration. Tommy died saving Laurel, and they had significant screen time to him doing it. I wish he was around because he was a cool character and they could have done cool things with him but his death was handled a lot better. PS: I'd be mad if they did this in as dumb a way to Laurel too. After her Drunken Rebirth she isn't nearly as annoying. Its Rinaldo fucked around with this message at 02:19 on Oct 10, 2014 |

BouncingBuckyBalls posted:A lot of blogs/articles are in agreement saying that the writers of Arrow do not want to have The Atom shrinking which is disappointing if true. It seems that if he does use his powers it will almost certainly be on Flash but having him be a part of Team Arrow would be nice. The only thing shrinking for Ray is his net worth

Goddamn that stinger I wished they did more Thea training montage, maybe her and Barrowman murdering the poo poo out of some third world dictator for fun. Thea being a badass is something I'd never thought I'd see after Season 1 and I love it. Oliver is like the badass catalyst, everyone he meets eventually becomes some hardened warrior. Maybe... maybe Oliver is made of Mirakuru

XboxPants posted:I love Laurel and her current arc but goddamn if that wasn't the funniest scene in the episode. Watch out Felicity, Laurel's coming after your comic relief job. I like the subtle "Wait are we friends?". If Felicity had just jumped Oliver once her and Laurel could have been Eskimo Sisters and got favors from each other no problem.

That three way fight scene ugh this show is so good. Barrowman I laughed when they showed China White. I mean, blow up a jumbo jet for some Triad goon? It would have made more sense if Ra's was on that plane. I would believe Waller would kill all those people, hire a merc force, and potentially destabilize a region for a shot at the Demon's Head

People are really underselling the super villain death trap in that episode. Robotic laser guided machine gun turrets? It's absurd and impractical and wonderful. The only way that scene could have been better is if Ollie shot Sheldon Cooper in the face with a boxing glove arrow.

VDay posted:Oh I wasn't complaining about the turrets, I thought they were appropriately goofy. It just instantly reminded me of that kind of stuff because it's one of the things I always notice. Like when a giant death robot from the future that can shoot lasers out of its butt is then awful at actually hitting anything despite the fact that being able to target things would kind of be trivial Arrogant hacker doesn't bother to code decent aiming software for his turrets. Who is gonna try to dodge a machine gun

She's made some dumb decisions but at least she is doing something constructive even if her "I have an anger inside me" is just as grown worthy as Sarah's "darkness inside" speeches. Makes her a lot more interesting To justify her screen time

zoux posted:Isn't BC like a top ten fighter in the DC universe? I'm just asking because that reminds me of it, not that I think the show should cleave closely to those rules or whatever. BC and Ollies fighting abilities are weirdly switched where in the comics Green Arrow is a competent unarmed fighter but ain't gonna be taking on Batman or Deathstroke in a fistfight and come out ok without his bow.

Gaz-L posted:The weird straps/garter thing is a nice compromise to the classic fishnet stockings look, without having to actually go there. The comics' Canary HAS had other outfits, but they all suck. Including the current one. (Well, the weird wetsuit with a sergeant's chevrons on the shoulder thing she wore during the early run of Birds of Prey was... OK.) I like the look, pants wearing Canary is way less rediculous. loving fishnets are you joking.
