I was waiting for Felicity and Helena to start typing on the same keyboard to stop Ben. Ugh, Hacker Wars is basically the worst plot for any kind of action show, but they always do it because they have internet on computers now.

Arrow is the definition of Sunk Cost. I have zero interest in anything going on right now, but I've been watching so long I just keep watching. At least I got to see Slade do his thing. Why are secret government organizations such chumps in Arrowverse? Shouldn't Argus made the FBI go away, or DEO be able to deal with people extra judiciously? SHIELD would have this tied up in an instant.

That reminded me, I saw Katie Cassidy in the credits, but she wasn't in the episode. I figured there was a nazi version of her, but then we'd get all nazisplotation Laurel.

Big Bad Voodoo Lou posted:Guy Gardner briefly wore Sinestro's yellow ring, back in the early '90s. At some point Sinestro got it back, probably around the same time Guy became Warrior, a shape-shifter with Vuldarian DNA. The early '90s were pretty stupid over at DC Comics. Oh that's right, I completely forgot about Power Ring, I knew it was a ring from a villain. They really had no idea what to do with Guy until fairly recently.

I like how Joe Toy owns basically the entire City while the heroes are busy loving off with their personal issues. And I guess this episode answers a question I've had for a while; Rene's bullets I guess are non-lethal?

Mr Beens posted:Rene has always been a totally stupid member of the team, he has never brought anything other than "dual wields full auto pistols". Yea, he's basically the #1 reason I keep thinking "why am I still watching this show?" because he ads nothing to the show other than just being the guy who always is giving pushback against what ever everyone else is doing. "I'm going to get some coffee" " I don't think that's a good idea Hoss, you should be drinking tea" Its pretty bad that Legends is ten times better than Arrow now.

The no kill thing would make more sense if the villains where less vile and hateful. Like if Ollie had just killed Diaz right there, that would have solved a lot of problems. And I really hope no one is actually trushing Black Siren. I mean, they're really dumb this season, but they can't be that dumb.

muscles like this! posted:Playing through FC5 with a bow and there could be a pretty cool FPS Arrow game where you run around shooting fools with a bow and arrow. This is like in the new Tomb Raider games Lara is Kate Bishop when she's got the bow. I love how this episode had them saying "oh this Diaz is nothing, just a low level drug dealer" then at the end he's brazenly sitting in SCGPs captains office. It's going to be amusing to see how the city officals will still not be convinced he's a threat when he's running the town. This show is dumb, and I'm where I was just before I dropped off Walking Dead. Maybe it will turn around in the next episode, but I can barely care. Oh well, I had this during the Hive arc too, but it did turn itself around, but Diaz is no Damien Darkh.

Unless Ollie gets sent to a Villains prison, and they fill it with the bottom tier DC villains, prison season would suck. every episode would be him trying to avoid getting shanked, treated like poo poo by the guards and warden. We'd find out some powerful prisoner has a personal vendetta against him, and he has to form his own gang inside the prison to stop him and stop the prison from being hell. While on the outside, the team tries to get Ollie out of prison, both legal and extralegal methods. All the while Diaz is basically king of the city but no one believes it.

You know, SHIELD would have done Diaz right there. ARGUS is a bunch of chumps for a super secret government organization. Amanda Waller is spinning in her grave.

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:SHIELD would have shot Diaz in the chest 4 times only to have him survive Maybe if Maria Hill was in charge, but Fury, Diaz would just vanish of the face of the earth. Also, of course Diaz has access to CIA information. Though it's not a stretch to believe he owns Trump, i mean, anyone with 5 bux can get a piece of that giant cheeto. And there was zero problems with what Team Flash did, as it was impossible for Oliver to get a fair trial. The show has presented that basically the entire city is owned by Diaz. I want to find out just how much the cops are being given, because owning the whole department has go to be expensive. I'm sure if you worked it out, Diaz would probably exceed someone like Bezos's incomes in just bribes. But they don't care about that kind of poo poo, Diaz owns everyone, even though the logistics of that are impossible. twistedmentat fucked around with this message at 04:36 on May 6, 2018 |

They'd beat Diaz and Mick would be right about to burn him down, then both Ollie and Barry show up and tell him "No you can't do that! Why? Becuase...uh...killing is wrong! We have to give him over to the justice system...yes I know its incredibly corrupt and he owns basically everyone, but we can't kill....its wrong!"

We're a giant evil criminal empire, but we're too weak to stop some street punk from taking over! God my assessment of the Arrow writers not giving a gently caress anymore is so obvious.

There's no satisfying way this season can end. Is Ollie going to challange Diaz to a honourable fight? Do we get some moment were Ollie hestiates to take him out for some contrived reason? Maybe if all the secrets of Diaz get out and everyone In Star City knows their entire Law Enforcement and Justice system is in the hand of a exceedingly cruel criminal and the city riots, tearing the corrupt cops and Diaz apart with their bare hands. Then there all "we don't need cops, the Green Arrow is the only one that's put this city before themselves!" That sounds terrible enough for it to be how it ends.

I kinda wish they had no said that Blackthorne won't be coming back to Arrow next season, it telegraphed his death. Though good thing I forgot Caity Lotz was in the opening credits, so it was a surprised when she showed up. I do like that Ollie just straight up stabbed Diaz finally. Also great seeing a government organization actually be competent on the show. Also, that's the first time I've actually liked Rene.

All super powerful secret organizations are always like that in TV. They're built up to be super powerful and sinister, but get chumped by a main character as soon as the plot needs it to be. It really reminded me of lovely 90s action shows in that way.
