According to the DC Database:
Starling City
Central City:
Also, I found this:
Looking further into it, Star City has apparently moved depending on which decade the Green Arrow books were being written in. It was on the Great Lakes in the sixties, In Massachusetts in the seventies and eighties, and Northern California (San Francisco Bay area) most recently.
So if we're going by comics:
Star City - California
Coast City- California
Central City - Missouri
Keystone City- Kansas
Metropolis - Delaware
Gotham City - New Jersey
I'm wondering if the season is going to end with Malcolm somehow becoming Ras al Ghul.

Man, I'm just tired of Oliver keeping secrets. This shit keeps biting him in the ass and he keeps doing it.

That last scene, jesus. I get what they're trying to step up, but come on...The show is rapidly losing any of the intrigue about Ras.

Team Arrow is really good, but as pointed out, it's mostly Ollie and Felicity. Roy is just there, Diggle doesn't do much, and Laurel is there to basically sandbag. It's upsetting, really. I like that they're taking time with Laurel, but the fact that Diggle and Roy (especially Roy) are just sort of there really fucking bothers me. Something I've made very vocal in this thread.
It's basically the same portrayal as Batman Begins. Which is fine. My friend thinks the only reason this actor makes a good Ra's is because they made him look as much like Liam Neeson as possible. I disagree, personally, but whatevs. He does a good job.

I actually hope Oliver does
, just to shake up the formula a bit. It seems like this season doesn't really have an arc for the character and I think the whole thing is becoming a bit repetitive. It isn't doing the characters any favors when they seem to act irrationally just to produce enough conflict to keep the plot moving.
become Ra's al Ghul

It's hilariously psychologically damaging at this point to everyone.
Blatantly so. Jesus Christ.
I love that even Ra's stuck in that little dig about not having the woman he loves. Lol.

one high point of this season is thea's wardrobe has been on 11/10 this season, roy needs to get on in that.

Trying to get caught up on season 3, I've disliked just about every decision they've made so far so it's taking a while. Ep 5 now. Those kids nowadays sure do love Zork!

Nah. Malcolm is Begin's Ra's. Only more psychotic.

Also thought it would make a nice "Abandon Thread" GIF, wanted the font to be green but it didn't work out how I wanted it to.

Either that, or Ra's is like Begins Ra's only more of an extremist. Either comparison works.

We can only hope it doesn't become as bad it is in Supernatural...
I genuinely believe Ollie saying yes would have been much better for the show. It's become a little stale of late, the LoA gave the show an opportunity to really shake things up...
The thing with Arrow is that if he did say yes?
It'd be a three episode arc, max.
Arrow does long-form change, but for characters. They'll do things like have Oliver 'die', but they move so quickly that he'll never stick to a new job/location for too long. We'll never get Arrow's version of Angel S5. Which is a shame.
The idea of Team Arrow running the LOA and compromising their values is really cool.

I don't mind them now, because they actually bring progress instead of her shitting on Oliver or preaching to him.
I think S3 ends with him accepting the offer.

Roy would look fabulous in some of her clothes, but sadly I don't think Thea's wardrobe would fit him.

And maybe dismantling the League (or losing it to someone else....
For some reason I feel the League as a major plotline will end with S3.

Same.
He should be Ra's for the remainder of the series, and then in the final episode Batman shows up and challenges him to a duel.

What if Malcolm Merlyn seizes control of the League and becomes Ra's?
BKatastrophe
Member
He wouldn't be able to. He's been disgraced by the entire League. No one would accept him. Ollie, however, has at least proven himself by taking out several members of the League and not being dead.

Member
What if he busts out one of his magic tricks and everyone gets suckered into it?
You mean perhaps like a magic box that travels through space and time?

Ollie being nominated to become Ra's was unbelievable. Because "Prophecy" Is an easy way out.
I really hope Ra's have other plans

I dunno. I buy it. I still think this arc could have been done better if it had been done a few more seasons in, but I otherwise am buying it.

I think Malcolm wants Oliver to become Ra's al Ghul so he can become Ra's al Ghul after him, since he survived their battle in season 1, which would still fulfill the prophecy.
BKatastrophe
Member
I agree. I'm really curious as to why he wouldn't have mentioned it.
It would have saved his sorry ass in every conceivable way.
The fuck Malcolm? Get it together.
It sounded like he didn't believe it, and it only occurred to him that must actually be real after they were allowed to go home alive.
How does this help Malcolm's life debt?
BKatastrophe
Member
Because then Oliver would take over the position and erase the blood debt?

Blackface thread.
Wait - are we talking about Merlyn mentioning it before Oliver fought Ra's or after?
MHWilliams

Yeah, Sam and Dean have been rolling about that for 4 seasons.

After. Once he knew Oliver was alive and had returned, he should have brought it up.
