CabotCove April 15, 2015 Share April 15, 2015 (edited) I agree. That's why it's " the people who wanted comics and thought Laurel should have been BC long ago" rather than "people who came to the show from reading the comics." OK thanks for that clarification. Arrow's PR department needs to step it up a notch. Does Arrow have a lower budget than Flash or something? Flash is always getting new promotional items, from trailers to posters to interviews, while Arrow is stuck with the same old things. A new photoshoot would be nice; i still can't believe you guys photoshopped the promo pics from last year to create his year's season poster btw. New things for fans to get excited over would be appreciated. Arrow is the show that started it all after all. Preaching to the choir, sister. Preach indeed, urgh that recycled poster seriously, what a fail . Edited April 15, 2015 by Conell Link to comment

KirkB April 15, 2015 Share April 15, 2015 I agree David Ramsey would be the perfect John Stewart, but I honestly think there are two main reasons the character hasn't gotten more play. One is the Green Lantern movie, which tanked hard enough to scare off any other interpretations for a while. And the second is the host of the Daily Show. I know their first names are spelled differently but for a majority of people, even a lot of comic book fans, if you say John Stewart the guy on TV is the one who's going to come to mind. 1 Link to comment
statsgirl April 15, 2015 Share April 15, 2015 Since Jon Stewart is leaving The Daily Show in a few months, maybe they'll reconsider for summer 2017. 1 Link to comment
statsgirl April 15, 2015 Share April 15, 2015 In the AK interview linked in the Spoiler thread, he says that why we haven't seen The Atom fly on Arrow but do see it on The Flash 118 is because of the difference in the budgets for the two shows. Could The Flash really have that much more of a budget than Arrow? Did they steal from Arrow for The Flash? If so, no wonder we've been complaining of cheap sets all season. Link to comment
Delphi April 15, 2015 Share April 15, 2015 I think the Flash might have been given a higher budget than Arrow because they might actually needed it. All their villains have super powers or super tech while Stephen firing CGI arrows is probably no where near as expensive. Even Barry running probably costs a lot. It's much like how on BtVs and Angel they had to choose when to show a vamp dusting because it wasn't a cheap effect. Meanwhile having Ollie punch someone and Roy parkour everywhere is pennies out of the budget. Link to comment
calliope1975 April 15, 2015 Share April 15, 2015 Could The Flash really have that much more of a budget than Arrow? Did they steal from Arrow for The Flash? If so, no wonder we've been complaining of cheap sets all season. I think The Flash does have a higher budget than Arrow. It uses a lot more CGI. SA spoke a bit about this on the Aisha Tyler podcast - networks always cut the budgets of successful shows to funnel money into new projects. I suspect The Flash's budget will be cut next year if the team-up show gets picked up. The flying I saw on Arrow was pretty shitty, but I didn't watch The Flash last night so I can't compare. I have been impressed with Flash's CGI for the most part knowing it's on the CW. Link to comment

Velocity23 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 So after Coltons exit i am guessing CW really is starting doing 2-3 year contracts. Link to comment
dtissagirl April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 I'm forever a cynic, and Colton's tweets and instagram posts sounded so hurt -- saying EBR was helping him out with upsetting news, having one his friends fly to Vancouver and do tourist-y things with her before leaving town, even the vague good-byes from the other actors -- that I feel like it really wasn't his decision to leave, but the network/studio deciding not to renew his contract. Or break his contract earlier. Or DC Comics telling Arrow they couldn't have Arsenal anymore. I know Berlanti told Deadline they knew they were gonna lose Colton from the start, but I kinda [totally] don't believe him. 9 Link to comment

Chaser April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 It could be both. They signed him to a 2 year contract which he was cool with, but after spending time on the show and getting close to the cast, he wanted to renew the contract. They didn't and so Colton Haynes is really sad. I am also really sad. 5 Link to comment
dtissagirl April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 Yeah, I definitely think it was a TPTB decision, but as usual in Hollywood, the spin is to minimize anything that even remotely looks like a firing. Hence the "it was always in the cards", "we always knew" quotes, and the whole undertone of it being Colton's choice, because that always looks better for everyone. I guess if they announce Roy Harper on Titans, or a Red Hood and the Outlaws movie, we'll have DC to blame. Otherwise, we'll never know. I really hope they figure out a way to have Roy pop-up every so often, though. Link to comment
Carrie Ann April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 I agree that something seems a little...not quite right with the story we've been given, and that's understandable. But I also think they did such a good job this season building Roy into a really good part of the team and a good character, and CH really did his best work. It sort of feels like a decision that was made when Roy wasn't working so well. And if CH is still available someday down the road, and they figure out a way to bring him back, I'd love to have him back. It came out of nowhere for me, but like I said in the episode thread, Roy was one of the only things I unequivocally loved this season, and I'm going to miss him. 8 Link to comment
Password April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 (edited) It sort of feels like a decision that was made when Roy wasn't working so well. That's exactly what I thought when reading those interviews. It seemed like something they came up with when Roy was expendable during season 2. But then they threw their best writing at him (bar a few plot contrived moments) and now we don't want Roy to leave. Edited April 16, 2015 by Password 1 Link to comment

BkWurm1 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 And really, the stuff in season two was a problem of writing. We got Roy added to the team and then they just dropped him and then tossed him in a coma until the finale. How is that a fair showcase of his talents? But then I've always liked Roy. :( 2 Link to comment
SmallScreenDiva April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 I did wonder if it really was a mutual/amicable decision because Colton is not being quoted in any of the interviews I've seen, just Guggenheim and Berlanti. The Walking Dead usually gives its departing actors some press. Colton's departure and the revelation about the two-year contract also made me wonder about EBR's contract. And if it had been extended last summer. There was that time the EPs sent her a giant bouquet of flowers and I always tied that to the announcement that she'd be part of the GA comics. But now I'm wondering if that was because of a contract extension. They might have initially given her a 2-year contract because, hey, newbie. But after the success of moving her into the love interest position, maybe they decided to pin her down to a longer contract? I'm just speculating here. 1 Link to comment
manbearpig April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 Interesting thoughts about the contract stuff. I kind of just assumed he wanted to leave to try something else like he apparently did with Teen Wolf. 1 Link to comment
BkWurm1 April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 (edited) MG was asked on Tumblr if EBR since she came on as a regular about the same time as CH also had a two contract or if it was extended and he very up helpfully answered: No. So that could be no, she didn't have a two contract or no they didn't extend her contract.

It was amazing, as the last few have been. Every character was on point. Ray and Oliver sharing scenes is tv gold. Roy, Felicity and John were perfect the entire episode, but MAN that ending!!! That is what Team Arrow is made of. Perfection. Loved every second of it. Team Arrow working as leaders, knowing Oliver, and planning everything accordingly, made me love those characters more than I've ever had. Baby Thea!! And the fern! Can't wait to see how Oliver handles this!!Thanks so much!!! mrxf32 asked:Arrow has lost its charm this season. I honestly have considered not watching anymore because its just too painful to watch something that has continually pushed Olicity in our faces when all we want is a good SUPERHERO show not an Olicity show. And I know that you will probably ignore this and that is fine but I just had one question. Will Laurel and Diggle be pushed to the wayside for Felicity in season 4?I’m sorry the show hasn’t been to your liking this season. Edited April 17, 2015 by tv echo Link to comment
