I remember Ray being pretty well-liked last season, don't know where all this is coming from now.

Aphrodite posted:There's a shot in one of the teasers of Ollie and Barry at the coffee shop, maybe it's a pun. I was a bit disappointed that Stein didn't appear as a wavy transparent ghost head every time he talked to Jackson this week. I guess they needed all the VFX power they could muster for MANSHARK!!!.

Golden Bee posted:What a good ep. It's funny when you think of what a lovely two days Lance had. It started with him upset about not being able to investigate two detectives deaths, then finding out his daughter is alive (but insane), then she tries to kill his other daughter. He finds out the rear end in a top hat who Detective Lance already knew Oliver was the Arrow from the final events of last season, but otherwise this is spot-on. Somebody next week better acknowledge that Lance's weak heart clearly isn't a problem anymore, if ever. (Or, next week's cold open is him surrounded by EMTs performing CPR.)

Mr Beens posted:I think he means they spent a whole episode bringing Sara back solely because she is going to be a character in LoT. I thought the episode was OK, but as with the Flash episode is was 90% just spinning it's wheels setting up another show, but just pulled off a lot better than the Flash one. This episode was primarily about dealing with the resurrected Sara but I don't consider it a case of the show "spinning its wheels". Whether she's headed to a spinoff or not is irrelevant, this was a natural and reasonable direction for the characters to go and the consequences of these events is continuing to evolve them and their relationships, certainly a hell of a lot more than large stretches of season 3 did.

Tommy can show up in a quick cameo offering his merc services to Team Arrow, knowing full well they won't want an amoral hired assassin on the squad, he's just there to peep Black Canary with his x-ray vision.

I'm really not sure about the permission/rights situation, I was just riffing on his cameo in Morrison's JLA run where the same thing happened during their open membership call but with Wonder Woman.

greatn posted:I was kind of hoping they'd have to fight a named demon to get her soul back and was pretty disappointed it was generic ninjas. I might be reading too much into this but the boss ninja Constantine fought was a man of large stature who always had one hand behind his back and wore a familiar embroidered coat...

Thwomp posted:It's Hal, who we meet this season but dies before he gets his own show. Xenoletum posted:Dig reveals that he's in deep cover and his last name at birth is Stewart. The grave contains the fans' hopes for a Green Lantern spinoff. Oroborus posted:The killing aspect of the show is obvious a bit complicated, they have tried to show Dig using tranq guns in a few episodes but haven't made a point of mentioning it specifically. Exactly, Green Arrow isn't Batman and even after Ollie's change of heart this isn't a "never ever kill people or WE BECOME THE ABYSS" situation, they're just clearly on the other side of the "wanton vigilante executions | lethal force only when necessary" divide now. Unquenchable savage bloodlust is on a whole other level. Even with the tranq guns I'd be surprised if Dig didn't have a backup piece with real bullets on him at all times, just like Ollie and Thea still carry bladed arrows along with the dart and bola loads.

Have sonic scream powers ever not looked goofy in live action? If the show had big network money they could at least give it a cool distortion effect like Skye's shockwaves on Agents of SHIELD.

Caper posted:Ah, internet males. She was insanely skinny in S2 though. But her character was hooked on pills so maybe she was like really dedicated to the role or something. Character becomes a junkie, looks like a junkie, dorks complain she no longer looks like perfect fap material with retarded junk food memes. Indeed.

4000 years, 206 lives, that's an average lifespan of about 19.4 years. Average. I guess you can't make an immortality omelette without breaking some hawk eggs.

Narcissus1916 posted:Thanks for reminding me. For me, that is the show's low point. The whole "nah, he was only mostly dead.", "just kidding, we used unexplained herbs", "no one will ever mention this ever agin." schtick was mind boggingly awful. It's so bizarre because they went ahead and introduced the Lazarus pit later anyway, it was a perfect opportunity to foreshadow it.

I dont know posted:She may have gotten hired through blackmail, but I think the real reason she is the DA is no sane person wants to be a public official in Star City. At least a dozen get assassinated each year. Yes, we know for a fact Oliver's qualifications for mayor are "can give speeches in public without being murdered" so Laurel's ability to flash a badge and not end up at the bottom of a river basically gives her the office for life.

sbaldrick posted:The WB's biggest problem is they didn't adapt to the huge shift in how people saw comic book movies in 2008. The same year the Dark Knight came up with it's grim vision of superhero's, so did Iron Man with it's rather fun loving version. You mean mostly liked outside of insular comic nerd circles?

Longbaugh01 posted:Haha. Yes it is in that I guess, but I also thought it was a real thing. Though nowadays it seems pretty severe. Kevin Mitnick got that order during his second supervised release from prison, though he eventually had it overturned in court. Kevin Poulsen and Chris Lamprecht did as well, it's not unheard of for severe enough hacking/computer crime offenses. McSpanky fucked around with this message at 06:22 on Apr 4, 2016 |

AbstractNapper posted:I thought that this episode was doing ok, considering the previous ones. Dumb plot and twists, but no more than what I consider the standard level for the show anyway. At least the fight scenes looked cool this time. The fight scenes were terrible this time! Muddled quick cuts all over the place, bad camera positioning showing a bunch of stage punches missing and Flashback Ollie lovetapped a guy and he goes flailing across the prison grounds like a cartoon pratfall.

AbstractNapper posted:I mean maybe you're right. But they were nowhere near as bad as Thea calmly slapping a guy who is then inexplicably launched forcibly into a wall or The Arrow fighting bee-man. This season's had some really good fights/stunts but it's also had multiple varieties of bad fight scenes, and that's pretty sad. In this case it was simple basic technical failures of choreography, directing and editing, real freshman stuff.

Fat Shat Sings posted:What was the deal with the hard cuts in this most recent episode? I'm starting to think they had some kind of accident in editing that ruined a bunch of film/files and forced them to use B-roll and quick reshoots or something. Between all these shoddy edits, the crappy fight footage and sequences like this and Team Arrow's Scooby-esque entrance to the prison, poo poo was just off this ep.
