I'm waiting until it's all done. I realized that it isn't worth it to tune in weekly in order to watch only about 5 minutes.

New Arrow season 4 photos
Blackneto's mask looks... dare I say it, good? And Speedy looks fantastic.

Generalizing Texas based on systemic and institutionalized discrimination is totes just like... the institutionalized and systemic discrimination that leads to a young man being arrested because his Muslim background and brown skin turns his homemade clock into a bomb in the eyes of inept school officials and police.
Totes.
Speedy does look fantastic, but I still am not sold on Diggle's mask. It''s not as bad as that promo photo, but it still just looks kind of odd.

I hope so too. There is a lot to explore with her character.
Willa's got those Speedy poses down. The mask looks super intimidating from the right angle. They chose a pretty bad photo of Paul Blackthorne though.

Whats bad about what he posted?
Speedy looking awesome!
He has always disliked Twitter and vastly prefers Facebook. So I see him sticking to his Facebook account more often then both for a little bit.

Speedy, my girl, lookin fantastic.
The mask looks better in those shots because of two reasons; One is that it's angled downward in those shots; Two is that it has the visor in place.

He offended the Twitter mob by pointing out hypocrisy in stereotyping Texans and is guilty trying to change the dialog or something something needs to check his privilege.
Basically he's not very good at these sort of things and should know and does know better but he seems to have a bad habit of internet foot in mouth when it comes to subjects he has an attachment to.
So, anyone see South Park tonight?
According to him, claiming Texas has systemic problems when dealing with race is apparently profiling in the same way a 14 year old muslim kid with a science project (a clock) getting arrested for making a faux bomb is... He then further decided to go "Hey man, my wife is from Texas and people from Texas are nice to me!" as if that somehow disqualifies the fact that this kid was racially profiled and arrested as a potential threat.
His attempt to go "hey guys, being upset at Texas is just as bad" bit him in the ass and he got called out for it.
He posted a video apology and is gonna take a break from social media for a bit.
Amell equated individuals expressing no suprise the incident occured in Texas - a state with a long and well documented history of intolerance and bigotry of all varities- with the shameful actions of the educators and police involved.
It was a tone deaf response to public outrage and condemnation against the profiling and bigotry a 14 year old boy suffered simply because of his name and the colour of his skin.

I don't think anything that drastic will happen. Worst case scenario, he'll have to do a few PSAs.
Unlike most people who pull this, I don't get the impression he was trying to deflect away from legitimate concerns.

He apologized and seems to know that he fucked up. I guess he is taking a break from social media to let it all blow over and not open himself up to doing something stupid again in defense. So he is smart in that respect.
Maybe he should go speak to Hulk Hogan...
While looking at photos of the CSI Paley Center panel on CBS twitter(RIP), I saw this little tweet pop up...

75 Second trailer for Supergirl with footage that wasn't leaked months before airing Monday during Scorpion.

Amell vs Hulkster at Wrestlemania now.
no shit? he's the lead character
Nor should he.
He expressed an opinion that came from a good place and wasn't even that offensive. That shouldn't land him in trouble even if he is wrong.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Yeah, it's a minor snafu caused by either an inability to articulate the point or a lack of understanding of the bigger picture politics at play.
It doesn't even deserve the 6 page thread it's gotten as punishment.

Soooo... no discussion about
being in the preview galleries for the Flash season premiere?
Harrison Wells
When I saw the thread I rolled my eyes knowing that it would amount to little more than Amell being bashed for a couple of pages until people lost interest.
He said something stupid but it was only as offensive at it was stupid - which doesn't make it that offensive the way I see it.
Pretty sure this has been known forever.
He is a series regular this season after all.

New Flash poster?
The Flash Season 2 |OT| You'll Cum Lightning.
Needs more Tom Welling and Bart Allen/Impulse 
I have no idea from where the little bit on Flash's left shoulder is from, left from our perspective, could be one the Blur's costumes from Smallvile. What is it?
Oh EDIT: there is actually Smallville's Green Arrow in the top left. Mistook him for Arrow's Arrow at first.

So I've been catching up on the first season of The Flash during the summer reruns. Something I wondered about Barry just running to some pizza place and grabbing pizzas and running back, spending no more than a fraction of a second in the restaurant. How exactly does he conduct the transaction without incurring huge suspicions? Even if he paid with credit card, one would think the pizzas just abruptly disappearing might raise a few eyebrows. (And if he DID pay by card, then they have a name to go with it.)

"Green Arrow" (October 7, 2015)
"The Man Who Saved Central City" (October 6, 2015)

"Green Arrow" (October 7, 2015)
Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Felicity’s (Emily Bett Rickards) blissful getaway is cut short when Thea (Willa Holland) and Laurel (Katie Cassidy) pay them a visit and tell Oliver they need his help back in Star City. The city has been attacked by "Ghosts", assassins led by a dangerous man named Damien Darhk (guest star Neil McDonough). However, when Oliver returns, Diggle (David Ramsey) makes it very clear that he doesn’t want Oliver on the team.
Picking up months after the Singularity attacked Central City, Barry (Grant Gustin) is still struggling to forgive himself for Eddie’s death. Concerned about putting his friends in danger, Barry has pushed everyone away and has chosen to protect the city on his own. When a meta-human known as "Atom-Smasher" (guest star Adam Copeland) attacks the city, Iris (Candice Patton) tells Barry that he needs to let his friends help him protect the citizens of Central City. Meanwhile, Cisco (Carlos Valdes) helps Joe (Jesse L. Martin) with his newly-assembled Meta Task Force.

Hey, it's that or...
So, a crossover between Enterprise, Starship Troopers, and Lost Girl?

Geez, I had to check that Enterprise one. I like how the Birds of Prey image on imdb is them jumping out of an exploding warehouse.
