Needs more abs.

Care to add J.R. Ramirez as Wildcat into that OP? He might be a big part in Laurel's possible story.

Wasn't there some mumbo-jumbo about how all of the Queen trust funds were tied up with the company and Isabella did some shady poo poo to snatch all that away? Also, is Nyssa using al Ghul as her last name or are they sticking with Raatko? I don't recall hearing her last name in her few appearances in Season 2, specifically in the finale where she introduces herself to Felicity.

Quick preview of tonight's series premiere

Honestly, I think Palmer's going to be suiting up with an arsenal of gadgets instead of the shrinking superpowers. Also, name change to Star City in the works already? :haw:

On the other hand this'll probably lead to drunk Laurel sooo...

But yeah, it's pretty clear that :argh:Barrowman:argh: is responsible right? I mean why would Ra's send someone to kill her off when she just went back to the League?

So they said they couldn't use Ted Kord and I'm wondering if it was just that someone decided it would be a bad idea to introduce multiple new characters who have the same first name. Seeing as they're using Ted "Wildcat" Grant as well.

No, they can't use Ted Kord because DC/WB have other plans for him (presumably an upcoming DC film).

Man that killer's mask looks a lot like the Young Justice Sportsmaster mask. Please Arrow writers, make live-action Sportsmaster a thing.

Synthwave Crusader

It's going to be Komodo. Only way that Ra's can be the true villain of the season and Nyssa being a potential ally for Team Arrow (because, you know, having your ex-lover which you have still feelings for killed doesn't help with family closeness). The archer's outfit is also very different from standard League garb as well.

Also, in case you need to see it again:

We already know most of what's said in the article (Amell said it himself that DCTV and DCFilm would not be cohesive), but there was this inside the article:

quote:

Plus, the CW has tentative plans to make a Suicide Squad miniature season between Arrow’s winter breaks

Hopefully these plans work out and we'll have a way to get more Manu Bennett on TV :woop:

FE: Also, some of the replies there are in such deep denial ("but Crisis guys, it's gonna connect the two universes!").

Yeah, that's Komodo. Why do I have a feeling that Oliver's gonna have one of those breakdowns at the end of the episode?

Here's some insight into the big crossover from the actors themselves. Really interesting how they're doing the fighting between Barry and Oliver and how they're having to adapt to each show's filming style.

Man they are really keeping Ra's under heavy wraps man. I expected a much better look at Nable's go in the teaser for next week but nope.

So psyched for episode 4 now. :fap:

Nah man gently caress that, keep the TV universe separate from the eventual trainwreck that is going to be the film universe.

Synthwave Crusader
Feb 13, 2011

They seriously need to let it go. None of this "but Crisis can connect the universe guys come on!" :goonsay: crap.

I mean would you want to be connected to the trainwreck that was MoS and Dawn of Justice?

Gotta keep him around since he and Felicity are an item IRL.

I do like Roy though.

Since when was this ever a reason to keep an actor in a TV series? They could have written him out at the end of the second season under the pretense of "dude bailed to Bludhaven, oh well."

Why did nobody think to ask, "So Thea, that big-rear end mansion you were staying in . . . who else lives there?" Besides the fact that the writers have to draw out Merlyn's big reveal for a few more episodes.

Uh, pretty sure they're lining up the big reveals (Ra's, Merlyn) for next week's episode (S03E04). The previews even had Nyssa saying "Malcom Merlyn is back in Starling City."

Clip from Arrow's facebook page

So Barrowman may have murdered Sara after all, considering that after Corto Maltese we are well aware that he's still loaded with cash and resources. Also lol at the blank piece of paper thing.

In Laurel news: Canary training coming along pretty drat well, I'd say.

Ra's al Ghul and the League of Assassins on TV in TYOOL 2014. Truly this is a great time for comic book media.

To be fair, when is she gonna tell him that her dad is Malcom "Mass Murderer" Merlyn and she's been training in sword-wielding badassery for the last five months.

Uh, I think ded was referring to Oliver, who already drat well knows who Thea's father is. It was even the main focus of Thea's small arc near the end of season 2.

Maybe Nable will hit his stride later on, but I still stand by my opinion that they should have cast Oded Fehr as Ra's. Dude would have killed it.

Well, Ra's al Ghul wasn't played by either David Warner or Liam Neeson, so I woulda been disappointed no matter what. That's nothing against the guy they've got playing him. Anyone would have been a disappointment.

Oded Fehr :colbert:

I will fight anyone who says he's not fit for the role.
