Arrow Arrow Season 2 Episode 23: "Unthinkable" Rate and Review Thread

[starkresilient]

damn oliver's island life is getting interesting since it was a lie

love the finale

 

[regnak]

But did they really need to kill lance off?

Hopefully he will pull through. he isn't confirmed dead yet.

It actually left me more curious on what will happen with the 5 years ago story more than the present day one.

Weirdly, that's how I felt during the first season. There would be whole stretches where I'd say "now what happened in the past." The second season's flashbacks started relatively strong, but it's been quite a little while since I found it better than the main plot. But I'm looking forward to where it's going.

I kind of knew it would happen. He already said he got off the island (something about his father's book being validated with a comment like "who said it happened when I was on the island?"). He also has a past with ARGUS. Good to see where it goes from here. It also makes sense that he'd have more involvement with China since it was dubious that he learned all his Mandarin from Shado.

Producers told EW 3 deaths in the finale. http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/05/14/arrow-bosses-season-finale/

Isabel
Thea Queen

So I'm guessing Quentin doesn't survive it.

Ya they really did a great job. I was on the edge of my seat the whole way through. I remember when it went to commercial break and I looked at the clock and saw there was only 15 mins left I was amazed how fast it flew by. Next season is going to be insane. They said these first 2 seasons is the first chapter of his new life

 

[marvelrobbins]

Next season the flashbacks will be oliver with waller.Eventully he will end up
back on Island.

While i am glad sara isn't dead I think leaving with nyssa and giving jacket to
Laurel makes it very likely she is done on show and she was only on show during season 2 to build up Laurel to her path which I hate since i don't like laurel.

At some point Slade will be back

Not surprised In least thea went off with Malcolm.

Hopefully Quenten Isn't dead but he might be.

I personally have feeling Oliver wasn't lying to Felicity about his feelings. With
Sara gone I am all about seeing felicity on screen and not Laurel.

He was referring to himself and the executive producers. it was a joke lol.

"3. Ours if we tell you"

 

[Guts]

I guess the island stuff is done

season 1 episode 1, he came off the island with a full beard and long hair. it's definitely possible that he will be put back on the island.

Whew! Live Quentin live!

 

[Primal Slayer]

yeah we wont know for sure Quentin is dead or not. He will probably be in a coma or something beginning of the season.

 

[JC00]

Guggenheim said they were discussing stuff about Sara for Season 3 including flashbacks of when Sara trained with The League.

To me it doesn't like she is done with the show.

 

[O'Haire]

With the debut of Supermax, I hope they do a season based on the Supermax script from ages ago. Actually be a good way to bring Slade back into the series. Have Ollie get locked up and him and Slade agree to team up to escape. Once they are out all bets are off.

 

[Human Torch]

Holey cow where to start! 12/10! Like a full length movie!

I kinda thought the Felicity thing was for real.I was glad that it showed how clever Ollie was and how brave Felicity was to pull that stunt.

Not to brag or anything,but the whole Laurel/Sara drama wrapped up pretty much as I expected.Laurel will end up as BC since Quinton is apparently going to be out of commission for a while.(Not sure how I feel about that.Seems a bit convenient he just goes down two hrs after the fact) Sara will probably be back when needed and adopt a different persona since Laurel will be BC.

Can't say I buy Sara going back to the LOA.Just seemed like a convenient way to make room for laurel. Sara's suddenly ok with being an assassin I guess.

Flashbacks were OK,but I thought Ollie was gonna shoot Slade in the eye all this time,not just stab him as he was pinned.I was hoping Ollie would meet up with TRG,but I guess the scene is shifted to Hong Kong now.(BTW,blooper alert.Ollie doesn't have the Shado tattoo in Hong Kong)

When Roy got the mask I have to admit I was just:

I was glad to see Thea actually took a shot at Malcolm. I guess she'll be going down the dark side for season 3.

Isabel's dead.No big loss.

I'm glad with Ollie's stand on no killing,but it does come in direct opposition to his feeling earlier that night when he wanted to bury Slade's guys under a building.

Dig's gonna be a poppa!t:

Awesome action with Team Arrow fighting it out with Slade's men.The one on one with Arrow vs Slade was great too.Glad Slade survived.Can't wait for next season!

 

[Boy Scout]

I liked it, but found it kind of underwhelming.

 

[O'Haire]

Man, I wish I was watching this in a room with all the Oliver/Felicity shippers. Just to see the pure joy on their faces when Ollie said he loved her. Then to see the massive disappointment when it was all just a plan to fool Slade.

Browsing Tumblr will be the next best thing.

 

[Human Torch]

They certainly made it seem like she'll only have "guest star" status from here on.

Technically that's all she had this season,despite being in a majority of episodes.

I wouldn't get my hopes up that she'll appear more than 2 or 3 times next season.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Can't say I buy Sara going back to the LOA.Just seemed like a convenient way to make room for laurel. Sara's suddenly ok with being an assassin I guess.

Yes because EVERYTHING that has been happening in the last 5 episodes has been convenient for making Laurel more central. She honestly doesn't have any real sense of having a storyline and others constantly have to be degraded so she can rise.

I doubt that the LOA would just help Sara because she asked and they are just oh so kind. It probably came with some stipulations and her rejoining is probably one of them.

 

[Orb]

Sara is nice and all but I much prefer going back to the Trio.

 

[Karelia]

Awesome episode! It's going to be a long wait now...

They really did some amazing things on a TV budget. I only wish it was longer!


And that Arrow/Flash teaser was awesome!

This would seriously be amazing. I kept saying they needed to so the Supermax storyline!' I hope thy take elements from Justin Marks' Supermax script

 

[bes628]

Laurel looks good in the jacket, im game

 

[John Locke]

That was amazing.

 

[vantheman77]

The producers were not lying about Oliver and everyone confronting their destinies as they're setting up things for the 3rd season.

There was one more death and that's Isabel herself so hopefully Oliver can get his family's company. Thea Queen in a way died as she's now on her way to becoming a Merlyn and fill the void left by Tommy. I hope Malcolm becomes a series regular again.

Pretty cool in seeing Dinah Laurel in the Canary jacket, but I think the producers should have made her like this throughout the season. I think the third season will correct the 2nd season in terms of the beginning of the Black Canary story and have Dinah Laurel appear in every episode.

Supermax, eh? I wonder if they're using that script from years ago for the third season. The island flashbacks are over for now as the next thing will be HK.

Diggle is now a father. I wonder if it's going to be John Stewart.

The Flash teaser with Green Arrow is awesome and I hope there will be crossovers.

 

[Mike Murdock]

I guess the island stuff is done

My guess is he'll return by the end of next season.

Thea's not dead, though.
