More than a day passed in this episode right? Did Nyssa only bring two outfits with her? The blue top and her assassin gear? That kind of stuck out to me. And there was a lot of them showing off just how fine Katrina Law is and I can't say I blame them.

I'm not talking poo poo I think it's fine to reuse sets. Someone was just asking in the thread earlier.

Reusing sets saves a poo poo ton of cash. Hell it looks like Agents of Shield and Agent Carter are going to use the same main set, just redressed for different time periods.

Seriously though, is someone feeding Slade? That question about the prison in The Flash got me thinking.

There was an ARGUS sign on the door, they're probably keeping him fed.

And if you all haven't follow Katie Cassidy on Facebook. She's constantly posting from the gym, she's serious about getting the right look to be Black Canary.

I'd bet the way she dresses is a subplot. Also Ms Ross is a very well endowed lady so that kind of dress would show off her assets more than other actresses.

Yeah there is absolutely no reason that she has to work as hard as she is when they could just use stunt people. I think she's probably doing it because everyone else works out so hard so she's following their example. So I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt with the Canary transition.

This is why I'm giving her so much slack, she's working her rear end off to live up to what Amell is doing.

When he entered Felicity's apartment he said "Nice place, lots of space!" which is what both Bruce Wayne and the Joker said the Vikki Vale in Batman (1989).

Seriously, Routh is an amazing actor. I had no idea, my only exposure to him was that awful Superman movie where he was just wooden as poo poo (or basically trying to play Christopher Reeve Superman as Jesus).

That was all Singer. He cast Routh based entirely on his resemblance to Reeve. Dude never had a chance.

Thinking back on it, Roy having something to do with Sara's death isn't too surprising. After all, considering that Manu Bennett neither confirmed nor denied that he was coming back for season 3, using "maybe the mirakuru cure didn't work as well as we thought" is definitely a set up for Slade to breakout of Lian Yu and a return to Starling (either as a villain or anti-hero or ARGUS merc).

Also, you'd probably want someone to go toe-to-toe with Merlyn as well, and god knows Oliver can't do that. :v:

I'm hoping someone at WB is smart enough to bring Manu over to the films for the Suicide Squad flick.

Yes but what I'm talking about was way before that, just after Infinite Crisis. John Smalls was introduced as Ollie's bodyguard in One Year Later. Diggle is based loosely on that character.

In the One Year later arc Ollie decided he had to rebuild himself so he hired the best of the best to teach him new techniques. When that didn't work he hired the guy who taught Deathstroke everything he knows about killing. I'd love to see him show up in the series since they've heavily mined Winnick's run for other plots.
