Arrow Arrow Season 2: Episode 2 "Identity" Discussion Thread

[DrRocket]

Slightly better than the first episode. Slightly. Good moments with the Dig/Felicity/Ollie, best lines by digg, Felicity was smoaking, Roy meet with Arrow was nice and quick and those trick shots and Dat ending.

Bad bits: still no killing, some super cheesy dialogue and laurel.

Honestly, with Diggie being single again and with the possibility of Slade potentially having feelings for Shado as well along with the other potential situation that the writers may try to mirror Team Arrow with Oliver's crew on the island, I really hope that they don't create another love triangle featuring diggie and Oliver both having a thing for Felicity.

Triangles really have the tendency to make every member of the party look bad in some form, and really emasculates the most badass of characters from what I've seen, and honestly, I just don't see Felicity and Diggie matching well together and no, it's not a racial thing at all, it's actually just them coming off as close siblings than potential lovers.

A. It's a TV show, and B. It's a TV show based on a Comic Book. If you're looking for accurate legal procedure, you should look elsewhere. If you portrayed the legal profession accurately, it'd make for a pretty boring TV show (I know from experience).

Yeah I know from experience too. It's just that having the DA play junior cop is just so irritating to me to be distracting. Maybe it's just me. Personally it was the sore thumb in an otherwise amazing episode.

Yeah,exactly.

I don't exactly feel that Ollie is attracted to Felicity,either.(How she feels about him may be a different story) I think he thinks of her as a sibling as well.At the end of the day,he's had the torch for Laurel since the beginning.I don't see that changing.

Well, it should by Episode 5. Of course writers will think differently.

Oh, part of me REALLY wants to hear Laurel's excuse for helping potentially send Oliver's mother to death row. I'm messed up like that.

Yeah, that's going to be comedy gold.

LL: " Ollie, I've got something to tell you. I'm going to try and get your mom the death penalty, oh and do you want to get lunch sometime?"

OQ: " Laurel Lance! You have failed this city!" 'Shoots an arrow into her throat'

 

[Loki882]

Oliver still has too much of a hard on for Laurel to even consider killing her.

Really well done episide. I thought Bronze Tiger looked good. The action between Arrow and Tiger was awesome.
Really not impressed with Laurel. I actually don't mind Thea so far this season she has grown up in the time Ollie has been back.
That ending was awesome, like everyone else how the heck is he going to get out of that?

Also Diggs and Felicity were once again amazing

Well, I personally think the canary is going to save Oliver.

some super cheesy dialogue

They need to tone down all those scenes that start with people chatting and then descending into introspective monologues about themselves whilst some daytime TV music plays telling us what to feel.

 

[Loki882]

Cheesy dialogue in a comic book project, shocking!

 

[wampa1]

Because good writing and comic book adaptations are mutually exclusive?

Well the whole not escorting the FEMA trucks but sending 20 cops after Arrow was very bad writing.

Right. I do think it's a cool and entertaining show, but its level of writing leaves a lot to be desired sometimes.
