Arrow Arrow General Discussion Thread - - - Part 17

[Lencho01]

Well, it's not like Ollie often uses arrows in close combat. Defeats the purpose of the weapon, no?

 

[Boy Scout]

What does getting punched in the mouth have to do with anything?

Nothing. He's just joking.

 

[king666]

Did someone say jumping the shark?



So, what will happen in episode 15? Ra's sends a resurrected Tommy to kill Malcolm?

Since they jumped the shark already with Oliver's "just badly hurt" nonsense, ep. 15 will just give us more jumping sharks.

They will give him the goatee.
HEHE
Just imagined Kreisberg and Gugggeinheim going like "WOW WOW MAN, DEFINITELY NO, that would be too much".

 

[Mike Murdock]

He wouldn't be shooting those arrows as well during combat.

I think he's just joking, so I'm not going to read much into it. However, this isn't correct. The Danish archer's point was that he is more effective during combat (while the "modern" archery style is only good for set performance shooting). Even the first point about a quiver on the back not being as effective for running shows there's flaws.

But this is a television show. It follows traditional Hollywood tropes that people are expecting. I don't think they actually need to change things as cool as it would be.

what do people think of Marc comment on this question by a fan....
Tell us something about 3x18

I’m writing it right now and can’t believe how insane it is. Seriously, I know I’m prone to hyperbole, but I can’t imagine another TV show doing what we’re doing.

I'm kind of scared what to think about that because, as history has shown, what the producers may think is "crazy" in a good way can end up being "crazy" in a bad way.lol

 

[Lencho01]

Obviously it's Starling City officially changing their name to Star City, Oliver going by Ollie and growing a goatee like the comics, and being called Green Arrow.

 

[Herolee10]

I wonder if the producers would ever be able to pull off a scenario where we can see the confirmed costume heroes of the CW-DCU take on like a large villainous force during the annual crossovers? Since it's been confirmed, so far, that we'll only get one crossover episode (for each series) per year....it pretty much means that we won't ever get to see all of the heroes show up for any show's season finale.

 

[Mikelus]

Ep 15 is "Nanda Parbat" (Feb. 25), so Ra's using the pit to resurrect Tommy, Shado or whoever the producers want could be a possibility if they're really jumping the shark. If they're referring to the Atom shrinking in this one, then is not jumping anything, unless they think it is just because Arrow has been more grounded, but whatever, the producers' "logic" is not from this world.

 

[Boy Scout]

Whatever they're going to do, it's something that they never would've considered at the start of the series. The crossover has made them reconsider their most important self-imposed limitation (if you want to call it that), so it stands to reason that whatever is going to happen is going to be fantastic. That's what I took from the interview, anyway.

I just hope it won't be some stupid ****.

It's not a one or the other type of thing as far as watching them goes. I wouldn't consider them competition so much as shows that will likely have similar types of viewers.

Not necessarily. It may only mean that Oliver and Barry only meet once a year. they could throw Firestorm and Atom into that crossover or do the Arrow episode in November and the Flash one in May. After all Felicity's going to be in three Flash episodes.

Yeah, given the way Netflix works, you can easily watch both without issues. The only competition may work in the reverse way because many people (myself included) started watching Arrow by binge-watching it on Netflix. It's possible someone will binge-watch Arrow before binge-watching Daredevil. Still, you can cover season one of Arrow in the three-day weekend even if you decide to eat and sleep like other human beings do. Daredevil can probably be covered in two days.

Those pictures are awesome, these upcoming episodes are looking great.

Gonna be so good to see Caity Lotz back as Sara even only in a Vertigo hallucination.

And Roy needs to stay away from Thea.

I'm pretty sure (tho I could be wrong I suppose) that you need to use the Pit to revive someone with within a few hours. Both of those have been dead way too long.

Agreed good to Caity back.

Honestly ,am I the only one who wants Roy and Thea to get back together?

 

[Daltonio]

I know you're probably not the only one, I've seen plenty of people agree with that. Just not me.

 

[Jedi Arrow]

No, yeah, I agree with you.

Well fair enough that's your opinion.

 

[fire117]

No, yeah, I agree with you.

Good to hear.
