Yep. First Ruby, incredibly snarky, and blond. At least Laurel's just snarky once in a while, instead of every single line dripping with venom like she's got an angry rattlesnake for a mouth.

Amazing OP can't wait for this show to be back. By the way, the comic has just introduced Diggle to the comic book canon  http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=48244

Pretty much marathoned season 1 while on a plane, so now I'm excited to be joining you guys each week for season 2!  Although I'm kinda concerned where the Island flashbacks will be going since they pretty much killed Fyres and friends, will it just be training montages?

When I think of training montages I automatically think of Rocky...I think IV? When he has to fight the Russian. I would be so down for Amell training set to cheeseball music with Bennett playing the role of like, jacked-yoda

The fact that they're introducing Diggle into the comics is pretty awesome. Sober posted:Pretty much marathoned season 1 while on a plane, so now I'm excited to be joining you guys each week for season 2! I'm not spoiling anything by saying this, but the island stuff is one of the things that the writers have said they've already planned out for about five seasons. They've set tentpoles for that whole arc. And in one interview even mentioned that the plan is to have the last island flashback sequence in season five be the beginning of the Pilot where Oliver is rescued. Of course this is all subject to change over time. You never know how things are going to work out five years down the line. But the fact they have a blueprint for all of that is pretty cool.

pentyne posted:drat, was that Barrowman's real voice with that insane Scottish accent? Kind of. Barrowman lived a lot of his formative years in the US (I want to say Ohio?) so the accent he used in the show is how he talks much of the time, but he and the rest of his family are from the West of Scotland, so that accent is pretty much how he talks when he shifts into that accent from his childhood.

In honour of last season's randomly amazing Malcolm Merlyn (pbuh), have a video of John BARROWMAN singing about another lunatic in pursuit of insane dreams. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gl8z8steE2s

Them never addressing it besides having mobsters treating him with crazy amounts of respect would be a great thing. Also the people who have seen him with his shirt off not recognizing the gang tattoos is wtf thing.

It fits the color scheme, and I think it looks better than if they had done some sort of fabric or latex pullover. I'd like to see what prototypes they looked at before settling on this one though.

(In one episode he's asked about the diary, and he says that he confirmed it's content in a message his dad left for him that wasn't on the island.) So there's a storyline about Ollie leaving the island. But there's an even better storyline which is that he CAME BACK to the island. I'm also fairly sure that Biriylia will be mentioned in this season (if it hasn't already been mentioned.) So we might see an Arrow version of Queen Bee.

No middle-ground, either nobody talks about it or it's a three-part miniseries event with as few Starling City scenes as possible. Just three weeks of flashback.

There was just a huge derail about male physiques in show business in YLLS's image thread. It's a superhero show, so they do their best to look like superheroes. SHIELD is turning out to be not bad. Between that and Arrow, there's a real potential for some competition in superhero TV shows that are not awful, which I think for fans is a good thing.

Drifter posted:Haha. Arrow is so far above Coulson's Agents of SHIELD in terms of writing and characterization. Sure, they're both based off of comics, but there's no competition. They both have plenty of flaws, but Arrow has had the chance to spend a season dialing those down. Arrow has a tendency to be bogged down in CW soapy drama. Laurel's really bringing the show down, and that stupid Sarah might be alive subplot was terrible and went nowhere. Its approach to reinventing some characters and toning them down can be a bit annoying (I liked the Royal Flush Gang but the Count was kind of dull) though it looks like it's going to stop with that with The Flash. SHIELD has this frustrating tendency to do these really annoying quips every other line. It does not take the less is more approach and will shove a "joke" or "witty" banter when it's completely inappropriate or just plain not funny. And its status as a tie in series means it's just doing really boring C-grade stories that won't really use any Marvel universe elements for worldbuilding out of fear that said material will be covered in the movies instead. It's stuck in a state of never having any real consequence and just being a mild filler show. Arrow's overall the far better show because when it isn't being a soapy drama it's actually a really cool vigilante series with fun island escapades on top whereas SHIELD isn't really anything other than a snark fodder with C-listers and original characters, but that doesn't mean SHIELD can't improve to the same level, it's only been 3 episodes.

You wouldn't say that if you had just watched the Huntress arc of Arrow. SHIELD has had 3 episodes, and Whedon shows almost always take a while to get up and running.
