    Oh Sin, I love you! Now if you could only spill the beans to Thea that would be marvelous!

    Ah Oliver trying to dissuade Malcolm from murder That'll go well.

    I was waiting for this promo!
    I'm not disappointed

    Well i need something to happened other than her just blindly believing in Malcolm. Because I am at a point with her character where there is almost no turning back.

  5. GraydonFebruary 1, 2015 at 5:27 PM

    That I'm not so sure about because yeah while she needs to get away from Malcolm (and it could be good motive to embrace heroism or the beginnings), on the other hand it will destroy her.

    ohhhhhhh! LOVED IT! Laurel is so hot ! Damn!
    Sin telling it isn't Sara! #heartbreak

  7. GraydonFebruary 1, 2015 at 5:31 PM

    Fair and I hope she learns (whether it be she killed Sara or that Malcolm has betrayed her) and turns against him. But Thea just keeps getting shafted and hurt and I just feel so bad for her. As f*cked up as it is, I get why she trusts Malcolm. He's never to her knowledge lied to her, treated her like a kid or anything less than someone with potential that she knows of, and she did learn and train under him (which according to Arrow and probably is a huge bonding and trust building thing). I thing it's not good (if not terrible judgement) to trust Malcolm knowing he's a mass murderer, but hopefully when she does learn this will be a wake up call and she gains more skill at understanding others (or learns how to distinguish threat from ally like Oliver did) and serves as Thea's crucible so she can along with her new skills and strength fight for justice alongside Team Arrow in the future.

    By episode 14 Thea will be alone with Oliver and Slade in Lian Yu, for some reason... If she doesn't know then... I mean, at that point you have to know your bother is The Arrow.

    I love this show but if Oliver manages to talk sense into Malcolm my head might explode

  13. KokyFebruary 1, 2015 at 5:55 PM

    Oh Oliver I missed you and your voice modulator dearly lol. Welcome home my poor brooding tortured hero.

    I had that theory that Sin would be the one to tell Quentin since sheis supposed to play a pivotal role in Sara's murder investigation. There is no longer an investigation so the logical conclusion is that she would tell Lance. apparently I'm right. That feels good but it's also heartbreaking. I want Quentin to get mad at all of them.

    I liked that Roy is honouring Oliver and saying "You have failed this city" however I don't like other elements in that scene.

    Can we just shoot Malcolm? The world would be a far better place.
    Malcolm killed way more than 502 people and Tommy. How about the people in the lab in 1x22? Moira's driver in 2x07? The Queen Gambit crew? SARA? ROBERT? Frank Chen? Probably the body guards around the Queen mansion in 2x08? The policemen in 1x23. And that's just off the top of my head! I know that this is not relevant to the promo but it's bothering me that they only mention the 503.

    If anyone could it's Oliver. He won't though.

    He could possibly fight Merlyn?

    I think he will because in the promo the police seem to be arresting Brick on the news when it says "The Arrow Returns".

  20. GraydonFebruary 1, 2015 at 6:20 PM

    Yeah but he's so deliciously evil and fun. Honestly you should want Ra's dead. He's far, far worse. Both in kill count and motive.

  25. SparkyFebruary 1, 2015 at 6:27 PM

    Nah you use Olivers line i am gonna side-eye you. Its not like they pretending to be the Arrow. I would have frown but would have still be ok with it.

  26. GraydonFebruary 1, 2015 at 6:27 PM

    So? He's not here to their knowledge. Needed to be said. Justice you can't run from just doesn't work as well here. This is about them and the people of the glades retaking their city.

    ReplyDelete
  27. GraydonFebruary 1, 2015 at 6:29 PM

    But they're all on Team Arrow. And contextually it works here. I'd have more of an issue if Roy was wearing the Arrow outfit.

    ReplyDelete
  28. SparkyFebruary 1, 2015 at 6:32 PM

    But it was always something to do with the Arrow. Not something they said as team Arrow.
    And Oliver is coming back to a completely changed Team. And Dig already streched out Oliver suit. At least let him have his line. Poor guy.

    ReplyDelete
  29. GraydonFebruary 1, 2015 at 6:37 PM

    Fine, as long as the people of Starling learn Roy's codename. Dude should at least get some recognition.

    Well i agree on that. Let him have his own thing. Otherwise he will always be in Arrows shadow.

    ReplyDelete
  31. KokyFebruary 1, 2015 at 6:42 PM

    I'm not a fan of Ra's either but he hasn't been around long enough to get on my nerves. Besides he didn't brainwash Thea into killing Sara and didn't send Oliver to his death to save his own skin, so no one would kill him for killing hundreds of innocent people. As misguided as Ra's is he believes he is doing this for a good cause.

  39. AnnoDominiFebruary 1, 2015 at 7:51 PM

    Agree. Plus, you can just sense in the line from Roy that he didn't have the "tone" that Ollie brought to the line. Really showed how Roy is still the rookie which works greatly.

  41. AnnoDominiFebruary 1, 2015 at 8:27 PM

    The two will end up fighting, Ollie ends up getting the upper hand and then Merlyn will flee. Or maybe Ollie will have an arrow aimed at Merlyn's head and say something about Thea, like "Think about your daughter" which will make Merlyn back down and leave the scene.

    I know. But at the time when they say you have failed this city Diggle is not there. That's why I thought he must be away rallying the troupes to help Laurel and Diggle. I was not complaining. It was said in fun.

  47. maclivesFebruary 1, 2015 at 9:28 PM

    I get that, he's a baddie. But think about it like this: we need a regular villain. And would you rather have John Barrowman or DJDouche as Olivers constant enemy? :P


    He's a dick and the most despicable character on the show for what he's done to his own daughter and son. But I can't deny that Barrowman is owning his scenes and creates a pretty enjoyable bad guy. If we have to be stuck with one I'll always go with him.


    Imagine having Brick, Ra's or...*gulp* Felicitys Ex BF in every episode as the main antagonist

    ReplyDelete
  48. KokyFebruary 1, 2015 at 9:37 PM

    Well if I have to choose then I guess you're right. I just wish they stop acting like he is a caring father because HE IS NOT and I need another reason for Oliver choosing not to kill him besides that he doesn't want to kill Thea's daddy! Malcolm had no problem killing Thea's true father and had absolutely no problem in killing Quentin's daughter.

    ReplyDelete
  49. maclivesFebruary 1, 2015 at 9:38 PM

    Oh yeah, they need to find another reason to explain why he's kept around. Like saying that he's hiding and only coming out when needed or (what I would prefer) Team Arrow keeping him locked up in a special cell in the Arrow cave giving him a chance to shine like Red

    ReplyDelete
  50. KokyFebruary 1, 2015 at 10:26 PM

    I'd be OK with that.

  51. AnnoDominiFebruary 1, 2015 at 10:54 PM

    Because he seems to actually be in the middle of it, not leading the way.

    ReplyDelete
  52. IvyBFebruary 1, 2015 at 11:31 PM

    I love Barrowman since DW/Torchwood and love his sociopathic Malcolm Merlyn, but I think they need to downgrade Malcolm to recurring and bring him in relevant episodes, because his presence in the first half was a joke. Have him in big episode blocks, disappear for a while and come back. Having a bad guy that's a regular for more than one season is a bit of a problem, because you run into the Sylar issue from Heroes and try to de-fang the villain or make the heroes really incompetent (or the villain, if he's trying to kill the heroes).

    I just want Oliver back. These episodes have been terrible. Bring back Oliver, write small manageable plots if that's all you can handle, try to make sense and not treat your audience like they are idiots with 5 second memories.

    you got that right, and i see this as honoring Oliver's memory

    ReplyDelete
  57. Spindae2February 2, 2015 at 12:27 AM

    Think during the first bunch of eps, he had conflicted scheduling and couldn't be there full time and that should change now and he'll be there throughout the season.

    But overall I agree he should appear in specific arcs and stuff, full time doesn't do justice to his character.

    ReplyDelete
  58. ivanFebruary 2, 2015 at 12:27 AM

    Oliver just came back from death, he can't possibly get the upper hand, unless it's a big time-jump like 6 months at least

    ReplyDelete
  59. ivanFebruary 2, 2015 at 12:27 AM

    you think this is Thea's Crucible? huh i didn't think of that

    ReplyDelete
  60. IvyBFebruary 2, 2015 at 12:27 AM

    Ah, could be, I thought it was just the first few episodes that he was busy with something else. But I think him being in specific arcs would work best, rather than 1-2 minutes per episode, just basically being there, lurking mostly. I think Slade being a regular in S2 mostly worked because of the flashbacks, other than that they didn't over do him in the present, he showed up when needed (we won't talk about ruining my favorite character, giving him crap reason for being a villain, fridging Shado,Miirakuru!crazy, not caring about his family, etc).

    I like Ra. He's bad ass. And I have a feeling that Thea is gonna end up being an going to have join the league. Due to her killing Sarah. I imagine her dad is still going to have to die and Ra is gonna kill him and she will find out what her dad did. She will then end up joining the league to take Sarah's position. It is just a theory

  66. lsbloomFebruary 2, 2015 at 2:31 AM

    That or people worried that they'd have her step in and take on way too much and be okay because the writers write it that way. She benches Diggle, makes arrogant comments to bad guys, and now she standing in the middle for all intents and purposes at the head of the uprising calling out the main bad guy. if you can't see why people wouldn't be ready for that kind of Laurel, then I can see why you would go with a generic "haters gonna hate" mantra. Some people would have preferred she earned some redemption before cocky Laurel badass got shoved in our faces to the detriment to a well-established team.

    ReplyDelete
  67. AnnoDominiFebruary 2, 2015 at 3:41 AM

  69. Helen SFebruary 2, 2015 at 3:56 AM

    First of all its about the line that's being said ( said by Roy not sure how Laurel is even in this)

    Second of all Laurel doesn't need to be redeemed. She didn't murder anyone or was evil. A woman going through grief and emotional pain does not need to be redeemed.

    And did you not watch the episode? Obviously not since laurel isn't some badass fighter yet

    And now Laurels comments to CRIMINALS are arrogant? Haha I can't with you haters.

    ReplyDelete
  70. BrianFebruary 2, 2015 at 4:37 AM

    I find the line cheesy but it seemed to work better in the first season. I don't blame Laurel for saying Brick's name. She's just getting his attention but Roy could have just said something street thuggish. It's funny how not only this scene but in this season he talks like has more education and better English skills.

    what other elements don't you like in the scene with Roy?

    ReplyDelete
  79. lsbloomFebruary 2, 2015 at 6:15 AM

    Like I said, since you don't want to listen to what people actually don't like, I can see what you go straight to haters.


    1. Laurel calls out Brick leading into Roy's you have failed this city. The exchange is what is Sparky introduced into the discussion.


    2. Some people don't like her, and feel that her past actions do require redemption. Not Malcolm-level or even type of redemption. But humble, team building, earn your place redemption.


    3. I watched the episode. I saw Laurel dodging bullets and taking out bad guys that kicked the crap out of Diggle and the SCPD ESU team. I saw Laurel bust out a window and catching a moving, unsecured rope ladder from a helicopter. Crappy fighters are always doing hardcore action star moves. Thanks for clarifying for me.


    She has been front and center pushing other characters aside for two episodes now. She is definitely top of mind of anyone watching Arrow right now, for or against.

  86. O D AFebruary 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM

    I agree with this completely. Also write him better. Give him material so interesting that we are at the edge of our seats to know what else Malcolm would come up with next. He should be the most brilliant, cunning and manipulative person in this show. And show needs to accept that he is the villain not a morally grey character. To show the hero of our show let a villain who killed 503 people walk away because he simply said you cannot hold me in any prison is insulting us and the character of Oliver Queen. At least put him in jail for once so that we see he can break out from there.

    Look I'm very protective of Oliver too, it's actually one of the reasons I hate Palmer because he keeps taking over Oliver's life. But to be fair Dig did say that line before. It started with Oliver but I think it became a Team Arrow thing. I had no problem with Roy saying it, he kinda earned it. He was Oliver's partner but I agree the fact that Laurel started the line annoyed me a little.

    For all we know Sin doesn't even know that Sara is dead and I'm pretty sure she doesn't know that Quentin is sick. She just noticed that the woman in black wasn't Sara and was telling him that a woman is impersonating his daughter!!

  103. CS 22February 2, 2015 at 10:05 AM

    Laurel probably had more important things to do in her grief than search for Sin. On the other hand, if Sin figured this Canary isn't Laurel, maybe she should have approached her first instead of ratting her out to Quentin.

    Mِaybe they are taking turns, next time he says the name and she finishes lol
    Actually I meant when he said it in the season 2.5 comics. It's a little early for Roy to get a line of his own, he usually doesn't say anything during missions he just tags along and comments sarcastically with Oliver or screams in the comms asking for Felicity's help lol. Those two are really getting on my nerves. When did they become such a synced fighting partners? They are pushing the two inexperienced masked heroes to the front just because of the comic books and it's frustrating. Wasn't that the same Roy she always yelled at and schooled and arrested?

    I agree with you about giving him material so interesting we're just waiting to see what he does next. LOL, that scene in 3X04 where Oliver just let Malcolm go enraged me, because- really? Either let Nyssa take care of it, or test his claim, maybe send him off to Amanda. And then you have Malcolm saying that Oliver is family and giving Thea's his revisionist's history version of why the League are after him, which I just found hysterical.

    Season 3 all in all is a group of mediocre episodes. None of the villains has been interesting except maybe Cupid, Boomerang and Ted's villain since he was not the point in that episode. Vertigo was okay, Komodo was wasted, Mark Shaw/Manhunter was boring, Cooper was annoying. Brick at least is a worthy villain.


    I think I am expecting a bit much from a show like Arrow. I don't mind mediocre acting but give us good material. Let Malcolm do something devious so that Oliver has no choice but to let him go, let Oliver be in dark about Malcolm until the mid season finale because Oliver letting Thea be in contact with Malcolm is unbelievable, you want Diggle to sit back and Laurel to go in the field and fail fine but do it in a believable way.. give the guy a gun shot wound, a dislocated shoulder or even a pulled hamstring, also don't gloss over Oliver's recovery unless you plan to introduce he was put in lazarus pit later.. because Oliver should have at least few broken bones after that fall. Let's not talk about Quentin Lance and Sara situation at all. Also there should be some explanation regarding what is actually going on in Thea's head when she casually speaks about Undertaking with her terrorist father. I am hoping for a twist there.


    I have so many issues with this season.

    I call you a after because that's exactly what you are. See I'll present to you the FACTS

    1. She's blaming Laurel for a line being said when ITE Roy that says it!!! Can Laurel see the future? Can she predict what Roy is going to say?

    2. Laure has saved, and put her life on the line for others on numerous occasions. If she needs to be "redeemed" for going through emotional turmoil then she doesn't need those ppl as fans. People that believe grief needed redemption is their ignorance to uphold.

    3.Obviously you didn't watch the episode. Cause Laurel didn't block bullets. She knocked the gun out of his hand with her stick. Resulting in the bullet fired flying somewhere else. Laurel didn't beat up Brick. He had the edge on her and she kneeded him in the groan. What training do you needel to jump out of a window? Please enlighten me? It is a broken down warehouse. That is luck. But I love how you ignore the punches, slashes, strangles, and slams Laurel went through the episode.

    Two episodes now? Um she had 5 minutes of screentime in 3X10 but you are right how dare the female lead get screentime.

    Its like you keep defining the term hater for me. Haha thanks for the laugh.

    Iris (at least in the comics) was born in the 31st century but (I can't remember why) was sent to live in the 20th century as a baby . She wants to interview him over his mom's death (at least in Flash: Rebirth, haven't read the 50's Flash comics so if it differs I don't know) and they go out to dinner, yada yada yada. Yeah it's a millennia. He's from the 31st century. He was sent back in time to meet his grandfather and gain help controlling his speed and accelerated aging but since Barry was "dead" (I'd say what but that could pertain to the show) instead Wally West helped him out.

    So his mom died in the comics too. I really need to read some articles about the comics or something.

    He WAS dead between 1986 and 2009 yes. But after The Flash: Rebirth he's alive again and as of right now, the current comic book Flash again. It was also his actions that caused the universe to reboot into the new continuity known as The New 52/Prime Earth

    DC Comics Wikia is a good resource, but really the reason for all the various "Crisis" (Infinite Earth/Zero Hour/Final Crisis etc) over the year was usually to clean up the weird and convoluted continuity.

    Wally had the same powers as Barry since he was exposed to the very same situation Barry was (Lightning Strike + chemicals). He eventually even surpassed Barry in mastery of the Speed Force and the speeds he could reach.

    ReplyDelete
  128. GraydonFebruary 2, 2015 at 3:30 PM

    Actually Barry and other speedsters (and close relatives and friends) due to their connection to the speed force age much slower than average people. It's more likely due to Bart being born with super speed that originally caused it (or just a justification of his travelling back in time). Yeah Wally has the same powers as Barry (except arguably he's faster) he replicated Barry's accident (in the comics, show not sure).

    And yet he's still able to, so I don't see how it would be out there for Ollie to fight Merlyn now. I agree, it does seem odd, but just because Ollie can though in this week's episode, it's not impossible for him to fight Merlyn now.

    My issues started with S2 and how they screwed up/over any character not called Oliver Queen, but this season isn't doing much better, outside of a few episodes here and there. I'm just glad Laurel finally has a good story line, but even that isn't being handled that well. And don't get me started on Thea and how everyone is lying to her and removing her agency. *sigh*

    I hated Cupid, she was a Harley Quinn knockoff and not even done that well. Way too OTT and cartoon-y and then there's the biggest casting fail with Rugby Ra's and how they're not even doing anything with him till now. So many boring one off villains or underutilized ones. The whole thing with Malcolm is definitely putting everyone in a bad light- Oliver for letting him go and leaving Thea with him once he found out what Merlyn did to her, team Arrow (especially Roy) not getting her away from her abusive bio-dad who can turn her into a murdering weapon at a drop of a hat.

    Diggle sitting it out was poorly written, my brother suggested it was because the Arrow suit was too restrictive, LOL. And can he at least wear a ski mask when he's out fighting Brick? Seriously. Let's not discuss Oliver surviving with just penicillin or everyone keeping secrets from everyone and how ridiculous it's gotten. Or Thea last season shooting Malcolm in a middle of a sentence like it's nbd for her (not when he just showed up or if he provoked her) and now is totally fine with him being a mass murderer, because at least she thinks he's not a liar. The writers are really trying my patience with how they write Thea for plot convenience and I just get so protective over her and what her to find out the truth, renounce Merlyn and join the good fight.

    The show hasn't been that great since S1, in my opinion. Even if occasionally it has good moments or story lines.

  137. AnnoDominiFebruary 2, 2015 at 4:27 PM

    No....well, Roy and Laurel are still the rookies compared to Ollie anyways, but I'm saying that by Roy saying Ollie's line, you can tell just by the way Roy says the line that he's not even in Ollie's level yet.

  138. GraydonFebruary 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM

    Lol it's fine. Yeah Don had super speed. Interestingly enough though being a speed force conduit doesn't guarantee super speed. For example Wally's son has super strength despite a connection with it. That's why a theory is that the particle accelerator merely turned all the metahumans in the show into conduits of it's power, with Barry being the host/ possible generator of the Speed Force.

    Probably, as I mentioned above. Many of DC's large scale crossover or "Crisis" events were inteded to deal with the crazy continuity that developed over the decades.

    The best known one, Crisis on Infinite Earth was to deal with "the multiverse". All those alternate realities/ paralell versions of Earth were united into one planet. Of course THAT bit of mess was introduced again some years ago (probably due to the fact that the guys in leading position at DC now were kids reading comics in the 60's and 70's when multiverse stories were prevalent)

    Zero Hour dealt with all the possible futures and alternate timelines generated by time-traveling heroes such as Superman and The Flash.

    I was never a batman fan so I had only slight knowledge of Harley. My expectations were extremely low for cupid as every comic book fan hated her. Maybe that's why I liked her. I still think we will get a surprise revelation about Thea. Something like Thea is learning from Malcolm but waiting to kill him at the right opportunity. Otherwise her casual approach towards undertaking does not make sense. Oliver letting Malcolm go and not pulling her back from him was bad enough I truly thought Team Arrow would let Thea in on the secret once they hear of Oliver's death. I does not make any sense letting her manipulated by Malcolm.


    I personally would take season 2 over season 3 any day. At least most of the episodes had some cohesiveness. Characters were not this OOC last season.

    Well, I'm glad someone likes her, LOL. God I would kill for a surprise reveal that Thea is manipulating Malcolm, but that would be giving the writers way too much credit. They just don't know how to write her and write her according to the plot needs of that episode. I still can't believe neither Oliver nor Team Arrow tried to get Thea away from Malcolm, it boggles the mind.


    I don't know which season I prefer, I'll get back to you once this one is over. But Laurel has a better story line now, Thea might actually get a story line at some point and not just be the supportive girlfriend and motivation she was during S2, I was never a fan of Sara and they ruined my favorite (Slade) in S2, so I really don't know, people had OOC moments or 'WTF writers' moments last season too.

    It's so funny how much they are trying to make Lance a Gordon rip-off, except making him a captain rather than a commissioner(although I would not be surprised to see Lance as commissioner when Arrow starts to be referred to as Green Arrow).
