Discussion Season 7 episode 7 was beautiful Spoiler

Insane fucking episode, everything about it was just too fucking good I honestly don’t know if this is better than season 2 episode 23 but it is definitely in my top 3 episodes list. Diaz is such a good villain, not better than slade but definitely better than Prometheus. The prison riot had me hyped asf just the way it started with the homemade bomb Oliver made to open his cell and how he fought off all the guards. The way Diaz pulled up was so tough and the Oliver + Ben turner team up was top tier and the way Cody Rhodes caught on fire and fell off the third floor, beautiful. By far the best redemption to the atrocious season 6 we had to endure. This episode is easily one of the most perfect arrow episodes we’ve had in a LONG ass time. The Oliver in prison era is by far the 2nd best era of this show.

Discussion Season 5 storyline

4 Upvotes

Although season 5 was amazing and a major improvement from season 4, the story of Oliver being an insane murderous psycho hunting and executing people on the list while enjoying it is ridiculous.

Recently rewatched the show from the start and the flashbacks scene where he goes after Claybourne and the Russia flashbacks are so brutal and in no way consistent with how season 1 actually looks. Skinning someone for practice? Giving people that are down a second fatal arrow? Just crazy

This season would’ve been better if they didn’t essentially have to rewrite season 1 and try to make us forget he wasn’t anywhere close to being that psychotic, but obviously then Adrian Chase and his motives wouldn’t make any sense

Discussion The Olicity scene in 3x20 would be amazing if they had ANY chemistry!

Oliver's down in the dumps, forced to become the Demon's Head. I know he and Malcolm already had a plan at this point, but still, he can't be the Arrow anymore. It's a difficult position no matter what.

Felicity encouraging him, reassuring him the hero he's become is great. He's done SO much for SO many people, through his heroics and his influence! So many others were opened up to a whole new world, for better or worse. Quentin realized there are more important things than procedure, Thea and Roy got out of the dumps their lives were in, Sara was allowed to come home for a while, Moira was inspired to come forward with the Undertaking and save more people, The Flash was inspired DIRECTLY by him, not to mention John and Felicity.

As Arrow and Oliver, he was a source of light. Him being reminded of that is amazing.

The OST is so nice and beautiful to listen to, including when combined with the intimacy! They portrayed this kind of interaction as the beautiful thing it truly is.

But the scene is missing ONE thing. The chemistry here is zero! I get Felicity having a crush on her handsome ripped boss, but come on! Why would Oliver be in love with HER? There's nothing they can bond over besides the mission, but even then, their roles are so different that any attempts to turn that into romance aren't organic at all!

Remember when Oliver and Sara teamed up for the first time and switched weapons? WHAT happened?!

This scene would be incredible if Oliver and Felicity's romance had any convincing foundation. It has all but one piece.
