The Deathstroke to be in the DC film universe reveal pretty much fucks Arrow out of ever being cool again.

Burning_Monk posted:I saw Manu Bennet at the SF Comic Con this Saturday. Was pretty fun, he was a last minute replacement for Kristen Ritter. He lead the group in a maori war dance and at the end he sang a Coldplay song on a piano. Honestly, I met that guy live when they were wrapping Arrow and he has a bit of a reason to be sore. They could have easily made better use of him as reoccurring character post-S02 but they threw all their love in the Barrowman/Malcom Merlin bucket and froze him out.

Black Siren, Mr. Terrific, Wild Dig, Ragman, The Human Target - it occurs to me that Arrow is actually learning from the big budget errors of the previous season [Magic and Metas] and the Superman vs Batman flop and trying to go smaller. Hell, it almost strokes me a they're attempting a lower budget variation on 'Batman & The Outsiders'. Yes, for those of you who remember the reference, I'm not implying a literal adaptation and for those of you who don't get the reference, they were the not-JLA 'street' team Batman assembled at one point w/ great success (and many had powers). Oliver Queen & his rag tag band of vigilantes is an appealing notion for at least half of this season. I'd love to see Nemisis in the mix as well if possible. We're already getting Vigilante . For those of you driven nuts by Felicity getting to keep the apartment, I'm driven to distraction that City Hall suspiciously is using the same green marble floor tiling of Queen Consolidated/STAR Labs. oh and then there's this...

I have a feeling they cast the role based on the guy's head shape and jawline. gently caress - its idiot Billy from 'Sirens' https://youtu.be/v8xqtgYcgtA https://youtu.be/5NLNfKtgPyI

A few episodes ago, Oliver kills a henchman as a cool call back to the pilot episode and revive the entire 'nobody can know my secret shtick'. Four episodes later they're going to arrest Church and Oliver thinks him knowing his secret identity won't be an issue. Oliver Queen - logic's black hole.

I like how Church's masked bodyguard never got a name. I've heard Cheapstroke suggested.

Binge watching season 1 and it is startling how rapidly the series was course correcting its minor characters in during the show's run. Remember, it didn't have a full season pickup out of the gate. Its also startling how often Oliver gives characters a 2nd chance to change despite being so closed minded but one could argue that Diggle made that possible.

Not to start anything, but I disagree. Dig had been used perfectly throughout the series and has been the perfect counter-point to Oliver at almost every moment when called for. He can't defend The List to the recruits because he was just as critical of it and was even the first to imply that Oliver was insane and a potential serial killer, not a soldier.

Laurel's death gave is the best grief by way of Diggle's anger.

The 1st 2 seasons were especially on fire around or at the 14th episode so I'm using that as a benchmark.

Zebulon posted:Well ain't that some poo poo for a cliffhanger. proof that Arrow is resurgent is that the show is getting back to its roots: strip mining concepts and characters from the 80s' Wolfman/Perez run of The New Teen Titans. Deathstroke, Hive and more (non-Titans) from that era in previous seasons, now Vigilante and possibly The Judas Contract this season. Seriously, ever since Slade popped up in Season 1 I've been hoping for a Judas Contract ripoff and now my hope is renewed.

I did laugh at the director using the take where you see Oliver jump up onto the bank counter. It just seemed less dramatic and like they missed an editing cue.

Mr Beens posted:Yup. His only skill is pointless Roy flipping and duel wielding pistols. And being the 3rd guy from Reaper I just realised. It really feels like we're just marking time until the B-team is killed, which is a shame because I'll miss Rag Man and Wild Dog

X-O posted:Also don't do anything foolish like look at how much of an rear end in a top hat he is apparently. Didn't he get arrested for drunkenly assaulting someone at a Comic Con? Doesn't seem like a likable guy to me. Saw him at Vancouver Con when they were wrapping season 2 & the guy was the greatest in the world. I chalk it up to partying too hard.
