Lol same.
This is how I feel whenever anybody approaches me, period.
Ollie lost a bit of his hotness without the stubble.
Once I heard Bludhaven, I was hoping the episode would end and the next would have NIGHTWING teamup
nah that would be too much. they can save that for s2. like nightwing heard of the hood fucking shit up in his neck of the woods.

I doubt it but im getting hyped for it. especially after watching the dull new Teen Titans Go and seeing them trounce all over the Batembargo.
edit:not sure if I want to keep my new avatar or not.

I'm starting to like no stubble Ollie, but not so much douchebag flashback Ollie.
so even in a cartoon they can't use Nightwing or whatever?

Yeah, in JL they weren't allowed to use Nightwing, Batgirl or other major Bat characters, in Teen Titans they weren't allowed to use Batman or others besides Dick Grayson at all(Nightwing did appear in 1 episode of TT).
Teen Titans Go the first two episodes alone have multiple pictures of Batman, TDKR Bane and Ra's al Ghul and even the Batmobile
Hope its a sign that its over for good.
We don't need Batman imo he would overshadow Green Arrow,
but Nightwing maybe Ra's & Cassandra would be a perfect fit imo.

They think people are stupid and wanted to protect the development of Batman Begins.

fuckin nolan hiring a bunch of turds for the batman fight choreography. he should have been fighting like this! not the damn green arrow, but i'll take good fight scenes wherever i can get themnolan sucks at action and making batman look like a stiff frankenstein is proof enough
episode thoughts:
-fuuuuck felicity is so adorable. that "inside me" line lmao
- god damn at that raid fight, pretty blatant ripoff but it was beautiful nonetheless
- so happy oliver reunited with diggle before the end
- best episode since odyssey, it would have been propelled even further if they included slade and shado but there was no room for sure
- wtf it looks like they're stealing the batman begins finale setup here. down to the fucking box pretty much
- laurel looked really hot in the flashbacks
- no dumbass jon cena roy harper in this episode. made it even better.

Every episode should start with them sparring shirtless. Slade can join in next season too.
Damn, I wish every episode was like this one. The pacing was amazing! I love how this show rarely has "filler episodes" and the writers aren't afraid to move things forward because their thinking of 10 seasons down the line.
Last 2 are going to be great. Summer is going to be a grueling wait.

Right?! The pacing is really pretty impressive for a 22 episode a season show. Hope they can keep it like this. I also really hope S2 won't suffer the sophomore slump that is all too common.

You don't stay here enough.

Anyone else notice Katie Cassidy is gaining weight?

Yeah, her face got puffy. Normally I wouldn't notice, but the beauty standards on this show are so ridiculously high ...
Yeah, the beauty standards in this series is very silly, but it is a minor detail. I still do enjoy the series despite that. However, I think I would enjoy the series more if the beauty standards were more realistic.
The last episode was awesome when the Arrow beat the life out of those guards.
I did notice her chin/neck, but that's it. She's still really thin otherwise. And hot.
Speaking of Nightwing, I found this snippet on a comic book forum:
"Asked about other DC characters not directly related to Green Arrow could come to the Arrow series, specifically Nightwing, Cunningham said "There have been discussions, and the possibility of using those to launch spin-offs and start building a larger DC live-action TV world."
This was taken from the Newsarama livefeed of the C2E2 2013 DC panel, but Newsarama took the livefeed down so I can't link a source.
DC's own TV universe focusing on characters that are not popular enough to get their own film could be really cool.

Felicity is so goddamn sexy when she dresses up. Merlyn and Ollie are two sides of the same coin.

Roy first has to die first so she has to wear spandex super hero custom for revenge and such.
In time in time....
LOL.
Green Arrow's jizz can cut enemies in shreds.
How did you manage that?

That was so good. So, so good. Ollie finally knows that his mother is a treacherous POS, Diggle is back on the team (ooooh yeah) and Felicity (so fine) proved herself and then some. Sure, the episode had a number of weak points (dat bulletproof suitecase), but it was great seeing Ollie back to his murderous ways.

She's very, very beautiful, but she also has a bit of a short chin. That means that her face will get puffy as soon as she gains some weight. Guys can avoid that by growing a beard, but I don't think that's an option for her...
Edit: This episode was brought to you by Microsoft Surface™
I thought the same thing...It's not like his face was covered or disguised in any way during the one interrogation scene outside of some minor green paint. You'd think he'd be a little more cautious considering everyone in the city knows who Oliver Queen is.
I have only watched up until episode 8 I think? (first season) but like time after time he is just pulling his hood down in shots where there's security cameras right there(like dude, you're in a bank, not the best time to lower your hood), and just randomly showing his face to people that he shouldn't trust. I normally don't take that stuff too seriously in shows like this but I remember saying to myself multiple times "what the hell are you doing? its called a secret identity for a reason".

Excellent episode. The fight choreography was superb. The casino and apartment fights were just too fucking awesome. Murderous, pissed off Ollie is best Ollie.
So, what was awesome and what sucked:
Awesome:
The fights. Goddamn those were blood pumping.
Flashbacks. Malcolm and Robert were pretty interesting to see. And Frank's the one who killed Robert! Boom.
Felicity was stunning.
The plot is moving along very fast now. It's awesome. Ollie is on a collision course with Moira and Malcolm and it is gonna be awesome.
Confirmation on what they're planning for the Glades.
Walter's back!
THE RAID!
Sucked:
The Tommy/Laurel/Oliver drama. Just... stop. I hate it. I hate it. Boring as fuck. Seriously, a relationship between Oliver and Laurel would be so fucking weird in light of everything Oliver has done. She was better with Tommy. Goddammit Oliver, just lie to the poor woman.
Flashback Ollie's kind of a cock. I love him on the Island, but here, bleh.
Diggle being a whiner.
Too funny. I had to rewind and make sure that's really what it said. All the shippers came at that moment.
What is really weird is that he has no stubble here, but two minutes later, he has stubble again at John's apartment. Loooooooooool.
Notes for next season. And lol @ Diggle.
Yeah, the choreography in this CW show is light years beyond a superhero blockbuster. It's crazy. Loved the Raid fight near the end. That was some badass shit.
I fucking loved it. Ollie was hardcore.
Hear that Arrow producers? Give the people what they want. While you're giving Gunloc what he wants, why not do some shirtless sweaty training scenes with all the women?
Yes to both. Though when you think about it... the Ollie is a mirror of the Dark Archer which technically existed first.
Everyone's so sucked into the smouldering gaze they forget to look at the rest of his face.

God, he's being such a twat. He's got no right to be angry with her.
Unless he's just trying to sell the douchebag angle so she leaves him alone. Him and Oliver are both doing the same thing, trying to make her happy by pushing her to the other guy.
Which is stupid.
Edit: io9's recap is up:

You know what would have been a better way to handle Tommy's downfall, since I guess it's inevitable?
So instead of Tommy being a giant vagina about Laurel possibly still loving Ollie or whatever - instead of that horseshit, he's a cool guy for pretty much the whole first season. He learns about Ollie's secret early on and he's pretty OK with it. He even helps Ollie out wherever he can. They're bros. They high five about arrowing random henchmen.
But then toward the end of the season, as Felicity and others keep telling Ollie's he's got to stop murdering people, Ollie has a change of heart. He wants to become a hero instead of just an insanemurdermachine vigilante. He stops killing.
Tommy is not cool with this. He's been buying more and more into the idea of killin' scum, just like his dad, especially after thinking more about what happened to his mom (she was murdered, right?). He gets sadistic and weird and he starts pushing all his friends away, including Laurel. Then the finale hits, Ollie ends up killing Merlyn Sr. Tommy finds out who his dad was, what he was really all about, what he wanted to do to the glades. He snaps mentally and leaves to train to take his dad's place, hating the shit out Ollie.
Bam. No shitty relationship drama and Tommy's not an uninteresting limp penis of a character.

Tommy is quite the man in this case as well. He understands the chemistry between Ollie and Laurel, ESPECIALLY when you consider the near-affection Arrow got from her simply by protecting her. It does only take a little empathy to put 2+2 together and realize that their relationship is not on solid ground.
If not wanting to live in constant fear of losing her for the next few years while praying that Laurel never finds Olivers secret out is being a "vagina", then so be it.

Vagina is maybe the wrong word for Tommy, because pretty much every woman on the show has more balls than him.
Isn't that exactly like the Green Goblin from Spiderman? Spidey killed the Goblin's dad too and then Goblin get's mad. I'm not entirely sure as I'm not familiar with the Spiderman comics and I haven't seen the movies in a long time.
