I know nothing of the Arrow comics, but im assuming that Ollie is going to be saved by the other serum/liquid that is whereever his flashback buddy's wife is. She'll probably steal/learn how to use it, and it'll have resurrection properties but can only be used on certain people/not enough to go around.

Makes it so they dont need the Lazerus Pit yet and can keep other characters dead/keep the suspense of characters being dead actually dead.
 
wtf, Colton Haynes is saying no more flips on the show

Felicity's reaction to the news was predictably awful, even if it was understandable. Just not interesting to watch

Enjoyed everything else
 
Can't figure out how to submit a question to Marc Guggenheim's Tumblr.

We all need to let him know unironically how much we enjoy Roy's flips.

Top left corner, click the three line symbol.

I send the following to him

You need to have Roy do more flips. NeoGAF and every other ARROW fan out there love all of Roy's flips. We need more. Please, Marc. Please. More flips. Please. Seriously. He needs to flip more. Or stand still as the world flips around him. Don't deny us this.
 
There is no this without Ollie? Isn't the whole point of what they're doing is to make the city better? I guess for Felicity it wasn't. Get that she is in a bad place, but she threw some shade at Diggle and Roy before she went up the stairs.

plus she turned off the lights on them

what a dick. she could have just left without leaving them in the dark
 
I am hereby founding the FIGHT FOR THE FLIPS FOUNDATION.

Someone make a sweet banner.

To make a difference in 4 simple steps:

-Please visit http://marcguggenheim.tumblr.com/.
-Click the three bars in the top left.
-Click "ask me anything".
-Request in a polite, respectful manner that Arrow continue including Roy flips in the show. Try to be sincere, and we'll gain more traction if you explain why you enjoy the flips.
 
"Justice Is The New Black" is an amazingly cringe-worthy tagline that I absolutely love.

Right, so tonight's episode. Really dug it!

- Vinnie Jones as Brick is pretty awesome. Totally nuts and imposing and shit. He's great. Bullet Tooth Tony 2.0.

- Diggle as Green Arrow is hilarious.

- Roy is actually pretty good.

- Felicity's emotional scenes were a bit overbearing, but I thought the scene where she basically declares Ray's plan a slow-motion suicide was quite good. Her turning out the lights on Digg and Roy was hilarious. But I really found it out of character that she's basically willing to abandon Oliver's mission now that he's no longer around.

- Malcolm's a total boss. I absolutely loved that his "contacts" were fucking Oliver's friends, hahahahaha.

- COME ON, JUST FUCKING TELL THEA.

- Of course Tatsuo and Katana saved Oliver! They total bros. But the little kid is MIA :(

- And Laurel. Beautiful, leather-clad Laurel. You're finally here. Let's kick some ass girl, but let's drop those terrible lines such as "I'm the justice you keep running from or whatever". But hey, I think she's gonna have a ball punching goons out. IT'S SUCH A THRILL, SUCH A WAY TO BE ALIVE, RIGHT GIRL? And she used the sonic doohickey!

Guys, we need some Laurel GIFs up in here.
 
Here's how I know I spend too much time reading Arrow threads.

When Laurel hugged Diggle I immediately imagined a barely hanging on Oliver walking in and Radioactive started playing in my head.
 
loved tonight's episode.
really strong return. just as flash was.

a couple of things bothered me though.
i REALLY wish they would give diggle a mask, it's so silly that they have everyone in one but him. :(
ollie not being truly dead ( that we know of so far. )

i know this is probably silly of me to think this, but every time i see amanda waller i wish they had cast cch pounder instead

fuck no more flips. our lives are now meaningless.
 
Roy's sticking out like a sore thumb. He has no character arc and even less of an emotional range.

"My ex-girlfriend might be a murderer....mmmmmm...kay?"

"My mentor and the person I idolized might be dead...mmmm....cool, I suppose."

What a strange little man.
 
Great episode. 4th week in a row where Arrow was my favorite comicbook show.
That hard glass in HK :D Awesome scene :D
Diggle's dual wielding against Malcolm's boasting :D
Overall lots of great action scenes this week, not jut in Starling. The final fight in the warehouse has so many great little moments.

And I loved how they stuck a nice balance. Roy and Diggle were shown to be very competent and capable of pulling off awesome feats, but the gap between them and Oliver was painfully obvious. And the reactions of all the people to Oliver's death was very well done. Plus Laurel looks good in this costume. Better than Sara did, even if she can't move like her sister did. Plus the Brick are is very smartly set up, because by releasing all those people it became about defending Oliver's legacy.

And good to see that League or not Maseo is still a good bro :) And they didn't use Lazarus Pit? Still propably some mystical device/substance. Having Katana do it makes me think Arrow is lying the groundwork for mystical Outsiders arc in future seasons.
 
I liked everything about this episode, even the Hong Kong flashbacks that usually fall flat. Really excited to see more of Laurel (We've come a long way from Season Two haha), and also see Team Arrow try to handle Brick sans Oliver.

This makes up for last night's episode of The Flash, which I honestly wasn't too happy with. But whatever, different thread.

I just realized that 3 CW shows are on my list of shows I have to watch the night they air. The 100, The Flash, and Arrow. They need one more stellar show so I'll be hooked on another night.

Fingers crossed for iZombie awesomeness :) I also need them to put it on Thursday, so I can have DC show every day of the week :)
 
First third was all over the place but ironed itself out once we finally got some breathing room in between scenes.

Fantastic casting for Brick, he'll make a great mid-tier baddie. And the setup with him taking the evidence ties in well with Laurel becoming Canary.

Some pretty sweet Arsenal moves this time too.
 
I really enjoyed Brick and glad he's hanging around for a while. I'd imagine he's pretty much Laurels' villain considering the ties with her job and what he represents. I am looking forward to seeing more and how she will evolve as Canary.

Very solid episode.
 
Good episode, though it's really starting to annoy me that Diggle keeps going out attacking bad buys without wearing a mask of any kind. His wife just had a baby and he keeps letting bad buys see his face...bad idea, plus it's possible someone could link him to Oliver Queen.
 
I think that Oliver will straight up survive the stab and fall. Someone will rescue him from the brink of death, while in Starling everyone will think he forever gone just because Merlin found the bloody sword.

There will be no Lazarus Pit, there will be no miracles.

If anyone doubts my prophetic powers, I wrote this two weeks ago. And yet foolish people doubted me...
 
so when did laurel and felicity completely change places/personalities

legit felicity has been acting hella irrational and just nonstop whining this entire season while laurel is now literally kicking ass and taking names. this forced olicity bullshit is really hurting the show, they've been trying to cram it into every episode and it's just slowly chipping away at everything that makes Felicity awesome, turning her into the classic 'lana lang' cw girl.
 
And yet all it took was one bandage to make him breathing. :)

Nah. THere had to be some mystical mumbo jumbo happening. He was lying there for a long time and Maseo clearly said she brought him back to life. If all it took was one bandage Maseo coul have one it on the cliff alone, without endangring his wife.

Or he just needed some warm place where he could stabilize Oliver.
