Season 3 is still good. It's clearly not as good as Season 2 or even the 2nd half of season 1. I blame it purely on the The Flash diverting attention of writers and creators away from Arrow.

With that said Laurel is terrible though, and it's a huge mistake to make her Black Canary. I don't care about the comics... It hasn't worked so far. Just have be a lawyer who is dresses is bright clothes like how she was at Diggle's wedding. She looked great. Also most Thea subplots have missed the mark.

I'm about to start season 3, just breezed through 1&2. Very sad to hear that Laurel still sucks.

Destor 05-06-2015 08:27 PM

Diggle either needs a costume or they need to write him off. I dont care which

McLegend 05-06-2015 10:37 PM

I really hate previews for next week shows. First the Flash spoiled Arrow, and now Arrow spoils Arrow.

I knew they weren't going to die tonight, but at the same time I didn't need to see them all alive in the previews for next week.

Either way very enjoyable tonight.

Lock Jaw 05-06-2015 11:49 PM

Yeah, it is "good"..... but this time last year was "amazing".

Black Widow 05-07-2015 04:28 AM

Oliver is making the LOA look worse than the Putty Patrol in MMPR.

Lock Jaw 05-07-2015 09:13 AM

Pretty weird how Laurel's training was so good that she has no problem taking on League members...

Corporate CockSnogger 05-07-2015 09:30 AM

Well she did attend 3 whole boxing classes.

McLegend 05-13-2015 10:24 PM

I really liked it, and I don't know where they are going with season 4.

I thought Oliver got his hand cut off on the bridge.

McLegend 05-13-2015 10:50 PM

Season 3 not as good as Season 2, but it's still good. Fight with Ra's wasn't nearly as good as the fight with Slade from last year. Or even the fight with Merlyn from season 1... Still the fight was good. However after the fight with Ra's on the mountain most of the fights in 2nd half of the season weren't up to par with with previous seasons. That has to get fixed.

I'm glad that Malcolm Merlyn is a full heel again. Oliver's reasoning for keeping Merlyn around makes some sense I guess, but it leads to heel Merlyn. I don't understand how Oliver doesn't say anything about him killing his own son along with 500 other people, but again it leads to heel Merlyn... So whatever

Another criticism... Oliver suddenly kills too easily now. That's wasn't made a big enough

Stephen Amell was really good this season. I knew he was going to have a career after Arrow ends, and he reconfirmed this season. He's going to be around for a while.

Lock Jaw 05-14-2015 03:17 AM

Yeah, nowhere near the level of season 2, but still generally ok.

I am making a bold prediction and saying that HAL JORDAN and Green Lantern will be in season 4. The boat Oliver looked towards at the end of the Flashback storyline had Coast City on it, well known home of Hal Jordan. Last episode they introduced Ferris Air and said it was shut down when one of their test pilots disappeared.

Therefore: I think that in Season 4 we will see Flashbacks with Oliver in Coast City, meeting Hal Jordan, possibly going on a Road Trip. Present day storyline could have him reappearing as the Green Lantern.

ClockShot 05-14-2015 07:36 AM

Agree with the vibe that this season was not the best. Felt as though the finale should have been more.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that eventually the show's name will change to Green Arrow in some way or form. With "The Arrow" now gone, what will Oliver Queen do?

The crossovers..........that's gotta stop. It was great when the show stood on it's own. I know CW is going for the monopoly for being the superhero network, but I don't wanna start watching other shows in order to be up to speed on my favorite show.

Gandalf the White Canary

VSG 05-15-2015 12:06 PM

lol

Also yeah I can't get over how Oliver supposedly got his hand chopped and then got shot at, but was absolutely fine a day later. The guy IS the Lazarus pit.

McLegend 05-15-2015 03:50 PM

It was his sword that got chopped, but it really looked like his hand at first.

Or at least to me it did.

Lock Jaw 05-15-2015 05:15 PM

Just looked like his sword to me.

McLegend 05-15-2015 07:14 PM

Yeah I think I'm one of the few that thought that.

So Sara Lance is coming back, and I don't think that's a spoiler now.

So will Sara Lance go after Thea? I think she has to. In fact maybe she comes back and is going after Thea, and that brings Oliver out of retirement.

I think the flashback's next year goes back the island pretty early. However befor that he might end up in Russia.

Corporate CockSnogger 05-15-2015 07:27 PM

Honestly, I think the main reason the show has gone massively downhill has been since he left the island. There was a large appeal to how he evolved from a massive faggot to a warrior on a secluded island, just mostly from trying to survive. Going to Japan, and especially back to Starling City to go to a party has been extremely boring/ridiculous, and the flashbacks make up like 25-30% of the episodes.

And I know it's a CW show and all but the driving off into the sunset in a sports car ending was embarrassing to watch in 2015.

Lock Jaw 05-15-2015 07:36 PM

Need Slade Wilson back. If any villain were to get awkwardly shoehorned into the main cast, would rather have had Slade Wilson over Merlyn.

Corporate CockSnogger 05-15-2015 07:37 PM

Slade was a better villain but every tv show needs more John Barrowman

McLegend 05-15-2015 09:04 PM

They never should have taken the mirakuru away from Slade Wilson. Without mirakuru he's not that big of a threat. He needs to get the mirakuru back, and then they can work him in.

Also why didn't Raz Ah Ghul and the League of Assassin's work out that well? I really liked how Raz was portrayed, but still there was something missing with him. Makes me think making him and the league of assassin's more comic booky might not work in live action... Batman Begins might have had that right. Also I never liked the name League of Assassin's. League of Shadows is much better.

ClockShot 07-10-2015 04:16 PM

Neal McDonough has been cast as Damien Darhk.

Star power like that, $5 will get you $10 he's probably the villain for season 4.

Not a bad pick up. Loved him during his run on Justified.

Loving the new Arrow costume...

John Constantine, as played by Matt Ryan, confirmed to be appearing on Arrow this upcoming season.

Pretty sweet.... I didn't care for the Constantine TV show, but thought that Matt Ryan did good job in the part.

I think I've said it before too, that I think the character of Constantine itself is better as a supporting/guest character instead of the main guy. I know he did have a 300 issue comic book series where he was the main guy, so I am probably wrong. Dunno. Haven't read most of it. And of what I have read, I have liked his supporting/guest spots in other comics better.

McLegend 08-11-2015 10:45 PM

I didn't watch any of Constantine so I can't say anything good or bad about it. However that's cool that's he's going to be on Arrow. I'm all for it.

I liked the show or at least the idea of it actually being a thing and was actually more critical of Matt Ryan as Constantine.

Lock Jaw 09-03-2015 07:27 PM

Diggle is now Magneto, cool.

mitchables 09-03-2015 07:42 PM

they're definitely casting/they definitely have casted someone else as mr terrific right? coz i'm kind of getting an 'inverse' vibe of the mr terrific face with the "T" shaped opening sort of

but yeah the magneto and juggernaut comparisons are right there for the taking

Lock Jaw 09-03-2015 08:10 PM

They cast Mr. Terrific, yeah..... Forget who... some guy I never heard of...

I don't think my theory last year of Hal Jordan/Green Lantern being in this season is going to turn out right.... probably would have heard some casting/rumours by now....

mitchables 09-03-2015 08:16 PM

yeah but they did just re-tease coast city in the promo material for s4 so they're being kind of dicks about it if they're just going to end up not bringing in hal in ~some~ capacity

McLegend 09-03-2015 08:19 PM

Is a heel turn coming for Diggle?

Yeah... I've also heard the "tagline" for the new season as "Aim Higher"..... Space is higher.....

Team Arrow vs. Starro the Conqueror this season.... make it happen....

damn, looks good. can feel the shift in tone even in the trailer. marked out bigtime for constantine's cameo. interesting to note the star city change, as well as the coast city thing - looks like ollie and flick have relocated there at the outset of the season. speedy looks awesome, damian dahrk seems like he could be good, introduction of magic and the supernatural/mysticism to arrow universe opens a lot of doors... dunno, definitely think they needed the 'clean break' to be able to 'begin again' as it were, more in line with what they've established really works in the flash

Sixx 09-14-2015 07:37 PM

What's with his voice at the end?

mitchables 09-15-2015 06:03 AM

the "you're about to find out"?

nothing that he hasn't used when talking to captain lance and everyone else who didn't know his identity over the past three seasons tbh; i had to rewatch the trailer to see what you were talking about because it didn't jump out at me as being out of place the first time, sry

Oh, ok. I've only seen 8 episodes of the 1st season, he hasn't used that voice so far.

McLegend 10-07-2015 09:09 PM

Lol Coast City flashbacks

I'm going to miss the old suit.

I know very little about Damien Dark or however you spell his name, but I'm looking forward to Neal McDonough. He's going to work well in the show.
