I'm seeing some early reviews saying the tone is almost completely different. A lot lighter, and even Oliver is jokey now.

The way they cut on that Sara salmon ladder is very suspicious.

I'll always prefer this over Flash because Green Arrow and Black Canary are way cooler than Barry Allen.

I'm not sure Oliver would really have that kind of reaction to Lance dying. He's definitely the most expendable character though. Thea could also be killed and not affect things too much. Felicity is such a significant part of the lighter tone they say they're going for. Season 5 would be a totally different show if she was gone. Digg makes the most sense but man that guy has just been poo poo on for 3 seasons now. Give him a break. I don't think they're killing Laurel, she's the only other major character with a major comic counterpart.

It took him a couple of hours to make it there. Though he has since upped his top speed a few times.

Caper posted:Yeah I liked it more than Flash's premiere definitely. It sounded more like he's being forced. Sinistral posted:Already a huge improvement over last season. The writers need to be banned from using the words "darkness" or "light" though. Unless it's following "Green Lantern's"

She was in great shape last year, it was probably the costume.

Mr Beens posted:They made out like the bomb on the train was one step down from a nuke - they blew the train up from about 50 yards away. A properly designed bomb isn't going to go off because its transport exploded. Reviews usually see the first ~4 episodes actually. Aphrodite fucked around with this message at 13:40 on Oct 8, 2015 |

Metahumans fit better on the Flash but I think like magic and sorcery works better on Arrow.

VagueRant posted:How did Thea's characterisation go from "Whoo! Terrorists are shooting machine guns at me! This is fun!" go to "I HAVE ANGER ISSUES AND I WILL BEAT YOUR SKULL IN AND CUT YOUR HEAD OFF!" in the space of one episode? She's a zombie.

Dead Snoopy posted:Disappointed in the voice modulator use w/ Oliver this episode, not that its ever been the show's strong point.It just sounded incredibly off. Yeah, I noticed that. The first time he spoke it had some distance to it,which made sense because the focus was on Damien and Oliver was on the other side of the car. But then it seemed like they kept that through his whole speech even in close-ups.

It's usually more like "we haven't decided which of the directions we thought of to go" rather than "we have no clue".

They didn't show a close enough shot to determine if it's a mass grave or not.

ShakeZula posted:Sadly this is the case. I know it's the name in the comics, but I think Star City is a stupid and generic-sounding name for a city, especially compared to Starling City. Plus now we have Star City on Arrow and STAR Labs on Flash. Too many stars! They are generic. Coast City, Hub City, Central City, Metropolis, even Gotham. They're not names, they're adjectives.

Although after last season it doesn't make a whole lot of sense that Oliver can still like Felicity.

Felicity was probably the one making the calls.

The way he played Ra's is dangerous because there's a fine line between the old veteran warrior who just doesn't care about the world anymore, and being flat. I think he was on the good side more often than not though.

frgildan posted:Also why are they hurting for money? Not to sound evil but didn't Palmer recover a bunch of weapon research from Queen industries? Seems like they could be making a mint off that. Felicity probably doesn't want to sell weapons. Also the idea is to make the company profitable. Felicity injecting some money doesn't fix their finances.

Hitting people with the end of the handle is going to hurt more, surface area and force and all that. She's basically using them as hammers, but nightsticks look cooler and also still gives her the ability to fight with them as tonfas.

ShakeZula posted:Yeah, you'd think if he knew that he would have mentioned it while Ra's was still alive so that Thea at least had a chance of curing herself. He couldn't do that, he needed to kill him (or have Oliver kill him) for his plan to work out. And also Thea would have no chance against him. Unlikely to be written that way, but it did work out.
