Primal Slayer

It is still keeping their training up and learning new things from the person if one is more advanced. It seems like they meant her massive learning curve is done. She won't be fumbling around anymore. Unless she is a master in something, she can still receive training in different martial arts styles.

Just as Oliver still had to be trained to fight Ra's, Black Canary continues to train to become better. Guess no charecters can spar with one another.

I've seen it go both ways. And it is so far away, who knows what kind of response it will get when it actually happens.

I wonder who would train on the spin-off though if it isn't Sara. Everyone else isn't really skilled in hand 2 hand combat.

What does that matter? Someone could say so and so looks badass in this or that costume. The costume comes off in the end. The collar doesn't make her look badass, she does that on her own. It may not look like it to some people just as it does for others.

It was a quick finale. Billed as 8mins, video was only 7:45 with 5mins being dedicated to the actual show. Oliver backed down real quick from his speech about Mari having no training. And even though it is no surprise that she doesn't wear a mask, I'm still surprised she doesn't or that it was glossed over.

She looked badass to me the first time she did it but it sounded so weak and was not as effective as it should've been.

Why change things up now? It's how its been since they started promoting the season.

Yes I did. It's a 5 minute video, majority of the clips were made up of S3/Wendy like I said. DD in the conference room was in the general trailer, Curticity in the general trailer, only minor change in Olivers jogging was him waving. They probably don't make up majority of the video if we want to get technical about time.

Majority of the clips are from Season 3 and Wendy talking, saying everything we already know so you arent missing out.

I am kind of surprised we haven't heard more about the Vigilante Task Force some more. The city is already on notice about DD being a threat it seems. It is kind of counteractive to work against the people who are helping you with these criminals and not focusing on the real threat.

It was speculated because of him knocking Diggle out, but of course they said that the scene isn't what it seems.

That was basically all that was said. Oliver and Thea play a big role in his creation, along with DD.

It seems like Laurel having Tonfas will be her signature move. It is the main weapon Katie was training with and from the videos I've seen, they can be badass when used correctly.

It isn't really copying to me. It isn't exclusive to Sara just as riding a motorcycle doesnt mean that Laurel and Thea are copying Oliver/Roy/Sara. Now maybe if they start having her do the whole ribbon thing, I maybe can see that. And it seems like it is more of a scheduling thing right now since Stephen was right there when it was said that the stunt guy wants him to show her. Just as Stephen wants the both of them to have a training session together on the show.

Yeah I found that weird. The fan got a photo with her, just not the pose she requested. She had met her at a previous con before.

What's there to be insecure about when wanting to tackle the Salmon ladder? When half the cast is able to do, wanting to see if she can tackle it is fine, they do this for fun. Everything out of her mouth is not suppose to be taken as some serious thing. It's in jest. She is a former gymnast i believe, they should incorporate that into the charecter.

I doubt she is trying to compare herself to CL. The Salmon Ladder seems to be a huge accomplishment on the show with how much they hyped it up in the past. I wonder if MG and co. have decided on a specific martial arts style for the character and if so, then having Katie focus on semi-perfecting it should be the thing to focus on. But Laurel in general should be the type of character who is into bettering herself and expanding her horizon by learning different techniques throughout the show. I really want to see them incorporate more boxing into her fight scenes as it seems like it was completely forgotten after Ted disappeared. But they should plan on bringing in Richard Dragon and Shiva to add to her training.

Well I am hoping she does do it and if the entire season passes without Laurel/Katie performing it in the show or bts, I will have to give some side eye by then.

Basically anything can be found on youtube, doesn't mean that people will use it just because. Hell there wouldn't be a need for personal trainers then. Maybe she doesn't feel like seeking out alternative ways just yet when she has a whole team of people on her show that can show her how to do the salmon ladder. But working out 3 hours of day when you shoot for 10+ hours a day is a long time, if she put in anymore time she would just be going from gym to show every day when personal life and other work related things still exists.

The New52 interpretation of Helena works for Spryal. But there are plenty of groups for them to pull from to put her in if they wanted her to. I would totally be willing to turn a left eye if they adapted Faiths storyline from Buffy/Angel, it's such a good storyline to do. Hopefully by 4b they will find the time to include her in a small 2-3 episode arc.

Maybe her trainer hasn't done the Salmon Ladder? The stunt coordinator said they want SA to show her, SA knows she wants to do it. Thus she did ask, she works with these people who know how to do it. There is no need to ask DR to show her when they've already directed her to SA, plus I doubt DR will be doing anything serious due to his back injury. Now it is just a matter of setting the necessary time aside to actually do it.

She's been consistent with her Salmon Ladder answers from what I can remember. She wants to tackle it, believes she can do it, talked to the stunt coordinator about showing her the ropes of it and they want SA to show her. It isn't something they would probably rush into in a heartbeat, she has to be shown how to do it and if she could, they aren't just going to rush it into a scene with how tight this first half of the season is at the moment.

She's talked about doing her own stunts and them letting her get in some here and there. She wouldn't put in half the work she does if it was all talk and no show.
