Ray started off as a businessman taking over the company from the good guys which royally pissed them off, while presenting himself as such a charismatic leader that an entire city was renamed because of him.

I died when I saw Beebo do a loving blitzball kick. Not to thread circle jerk but omg this show. With Arrow and Flash I'm fully in sunken cost fallacy mode but with this one, i just unironically want to see what happens next. Btw I know Mallus, the interdimensional time demon of infinite power, is a big deal but whoa you gotta check out this Arrow Season 6 villain. He's a fuckin DRUG DEALER.

They should have stuck with Cayden James as their big bad and just have him be a Harold Finch who broke bad and is now Ben Linus whose super power is literally the internet.

I stopped watching Arrow because this is how they wrote entire seasons: Ep 1: Character 1 does something morally ambiguous or not at all, Character 2, who's done far worse things in the past and may or may not even have to do with what Character 1 did gets really mad. Ep 2: Strong tension between Character 1 and 2. Motivational dialogues. Oliver Queen never looks straight into anybody's eyes and is always staring at the wall above the other person's face while contemplating existence. Ep 3: Character 1 and 2 learn a strong lesson about friendship and/or forgiveness and are now safe until every other character in the cast has filled their drama quota. Repeat the cycle 7 to 8 times per season. Fill time between brooding and characters guilt-tripping each other with combat scenes in a warehouse. Show Oliver Queen using his bow as a melee weapon so often it makes you wonder why he doesn't just grab a club or a sword instead. Also, alcoholism. Bonus point if the characters stuck in the drama cycle are debating about how bad killing is and there's a bloodbath where they murder a lot of goons, shoot down a helicopter with an explosive in the middle of a city, or both. Remember kids, it's okay to kill faceless henchmen, sometimes. Elentor fucked around with this message at 08:46 on Apr 16, 2018 |

I like Legends of Tomorrow because Sara Lance loving owned and deserved better and she was a fun character. I remember lamenting that when she died and since Beebo is good we got this show. Legends of Tomorrow is fun and all the jokes about how they're misfits are refreshing compared to people in Arrow being so constantly annoying. "We call them souvenirs." If Sara Lance was alive in Arrow she'd be stuck between being guilt-tripped by Oliver/her family and guilt-tripping Oliver/her family and that would be the entirety of it. Instead we have this:

It's a good thing Sara is with the legends, they may need all of them plus more to stop Ricardo Diaz, the DRUG DEALER. They may have to go to Earth-3 and get some kryptonians. Hell get the green lantern corps on this. *Sinestro and a few green lanterns stab Hal in the kidneys when his back is turned* "Sorry, we work FOR DIAZ" Blaise330 fucked around with this message at 08:59 on Apr 16, 2018 |

Something I learned from TV shows is that us from latin america are either guys with a violent background involving drugs, or women that always end up praying in spanish when something bad happens regardless of context. *Sees a dead person and makes the sign of the cross.

Flash I'm not having a problem with this season even though DeVoe is a weak as poo poo villain, Digby has been a lot of fun and the supporting cast is always good.

Does anyone know if the writers killed Sara off in Arrow knowing that Legends of tomorrow was in the works? Or did they kill her off and then go OH gently caress OH gently caress OH gently caress once they realized how stupid it was? Like don't get me wrong, I understand why they had to move Sara away from Arrow - if she would have stayed the whole series would have to be reconfigured and they were clearly moving in a different direction.

Narcissus1916 posted:Does anyone know if the writers killed Sara off in Arrow knowing that Legends of tomorrow was in the works? Killing her was probably a means to an end to tell some stories they wanted including getting her sister to replace her as Black Canary. Bringing her back also fit into their stories with Lazarus Pits but I don't know if they knew they were moving her to another show when they did it. There wasn't a TON of demand for her to come back. She had her fans, don't get me wrong, but Sara was a less fully realized character when she died. She's come into her own on Legends.

She said at a con that she was shocked when they called her back, thinking it was just for flashbacks. As far as she knew she was done.

And i think most viewers did. She was a show creation who never totally "fit" as Black Canary and Laurel was always the elephant in the room as the comic canon Canary. No one was surprised when she became Canary and for that to happen Sara had to die. And her entire character the first time through was basically a tragic figure headed for a tragic death. Of course they killed her off in a really callous and questionable way which people didn't like. But I don't think that was really about Sara and it kind of faded. Also a quick glance of her Wikipedia says that Sara was originally scripted to be Ravager so clearly her very inclusion as Black Canary was a change of plans. Sara was a character that just gradually became what she is.

Elentor posted:I stopped watching Arrow because this is how they wrote entire seasons: Since you quit watching you'll be happy to know this holds up so you aren't missing anything. This is actually the season dedicated to nothing but this kind of dumb dramatic slapfight. The most recent dramatic confrontation came between Oliver and Diggle. Diggle was Green Arrow for awhile and was buying special drugs off of a drug dealer to stay in action. Later when the guy tries to take over the city Oliver comes back as the Green Arrow pissing Diggle off. Diggle, the guy who funded the drug dealer that took power during his time as green arrow, blames Oliver for letting the drug dealer take power. Diggle, also the guy who executed his own brother, claims Oliver can't accomplish anything without killing people. So the team splits up again. My favorite instance though was the team all splitting up earlier in the season and when a criminal holds the city's money ransom in exchange for their safety the team that left Oliver show up to kill the criminal and end up firing guns at everyone and hitting felicity, hacking a medical device and injuring diggle, trying to kill Oliver with an axe and cause the city to lose all of it's funding due to their failed assassination loving up the ransom. They are then extremely outraged and highroad Oliver for injuring one of them while defending himself and pleading for the fight to be over in a fight they started. Bonus points for the team initially splitting up because Oliver spied on them when the FBI had insider information on Team Arrow. He found out that one of the team was the FBI informant however the fact they were spied on was so terrible that they had to dramatically split up. Legends is so much better it's not even funny.

Tell me how spot on these made-up dialogues are and if I'm ready to be hired by CW: *In an extremely Diggle voice: "You've crossed a line, Oliver. Not this time. This time you went too far." *Oliver looks blankly between Diggle and the camera and slowly shakes his head around. *Felicity, crying, looks up to Oliver and says: "We looked up to you, Oliver. I don't recognize you anymore." Oliver stares between Felicity and the camera, and finally says in a resigned voice: "Maybe you never saw who I truly was."
