I hope this season emulates the success of season 2. Season 3 had cool moments, but the direction felt a little lost. Season 2 also had the very well acted Slade villain.

This years villain will be armed and dangerous!

Except Felicity never went on a dumb rampage against him.

The writers set him up as a friendly rival by having him take over the company (and "steal" Felicity) from Ollie which was fine, but went overboard when he decided The Arrow was the enemy, lured him into a trap and zapped Roy with a million volts of electricity.

Then he found out he was mistaken and joined the team. In Superhero team up it always starts with a fight due to a mistake.

And and... the difference between Ray and Tony is that Ray needs lots of money and fancy tools to make his creations. Whereas Tony is capable of creating a kickass suit in a motherfucking Afghan cave using nothing but metal plates and a blowtorch.

It's amazing how far Arrow has come. 3 years ago, Arrow was this grounded low-budget Nolan Batman ripoff trying to find its feet, and now, in addition to ushering in an avalanche of comic-book shows, its spawning a spinoff about a man with a shrinking suit, 2 hawk people, criminals with a heat gun and a cold gun, a reanimated corpse, and two people who fuse into a flying, fire-throwing man hopping in a space ship to to travel through time and stop an immortal man. This is after a speedster threw a supersonic punch to knock a super-intelligent gorilla through a breach that leads to Gorilla City on Earth-2.

But if her death is only to advance the plot of Green Arrow against whoever killed her than it would be fridging. The first female Robin was a fleshed out character but her death is still considered a fridging because it was only done to motivate Batman.

Her death was also due to a close friend of Bruce letting her die to teach him a lesson.

Gotta wonder. I suppose it's possible that when Oliver was declared dead, he lost all his money (went back to his family or to the gov't or whatever) and he never bothered to set himself up as deeply as he had been before. And Thea only turned 18 around the same time that Moira got arrested and lost the CEO position, so maybe she never had a huge personal account either. Moira and Walter had it all.


...you know, I bet Walter got an epic fuckton of money from that divorce, they never really touched on that. It's entirely possible that he's holding the largest surviving share of the Queen wealth.

(Unless you count Felicity, since she now owns Ray's company which absorbed whatever was left of Queen Consolidated)

Walter helped keep the company from the take over in season 2, and then deathstroke helped to ruin the company. Their personal wealth was tied in with Queen Inc and as he said he is rich poor.

There is no way that its Felicity in the grave from this shooting. It looked like the funeral did not take place during the winter. More importantly Barry is not busy with Zoom right now, and if it was Felicity the funeral would be a couple days after the event.

It's not even just DC shows - Forever did it as well (I miss that show); and iZombie does it. It appears to have become the standard opening for any vaguely hipsterish show. I didn't mind it with Arrow, I even don't mind it if all the arrow spin off shows do it, as a kind of family trait, but when everyone is doing it it becomes kinda cringeworthy.

B5 also changed the narration every seasons. I think its a way of getting across the premise of the show for new viewers.

Back to Arrow speculation: I want to know what the person in the grave's death will make Ollie do to take on Dhark. I'd be up for a half season of supernaturally powered Arrow.

They did it that way because it was a retcon. They decided the last X years of the character was actually the daughter, instead of actually transitioning at some point.

The one who did anything anyone knows or cares about was the younger Canary, including the one the show's version is based on. I read somewhere (probably this thread) they had her called Dinah during production but it's a weird name that doesn't work being spoken, so they changed it.

There is and only ever has been one Canary in New 52, and she's not really either of the previous ones. She's been changed in like every way.

It was more that one was involved with the JSA and a character that occurred in the Golden Age of comics. This was all on earth 2 and eventually during a team up on earth one and two, the original died and her daughter went to earth 2 and stated a relationship with Green Arrow.

S3's second half started pulling for the Olicity coupling that would later destroy the show. S4 started off with Oliver baking pies and living in the suburbs. I still have no idea how anyone actually enjoyed the beginning of this season, really. And Felicity is not the only problem here, either. Why does everyone Oliver knows have to become a super hero? The show worked much, much better when it was just the Arrow alone in the field with maybe Diggle serving as his occasional backup (and then Sara but she came and went a lot). Having three sidekicks with him at all times feels like overkill, not to mention the only purpose Speedy/Laurel serve is to get knocked out as soon as the fighting starts.

Basically I miss rear end in a top hat not-Batman Oliver.

Everyone forgets Roy.
