lemotomato July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 (edited) If they're going through the trouble of making SA wear the horrible wig in flashbacks to distinguish past!Oliver from present!Oliver, why would they allow him to have distinctive facial hair?

wonderwall July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 I don't like the canadagraphs guy at all. But damn if he can get some good photos... I hate myself for posting this btw. Also, David Ramsey and Stephen Amell are looking FINE AS HELL. Also, I'm still grieving DR's scruff :'( 4 Link to comment
apinknightmare July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 Looking fine, so fine, even in grainy, blurry photos. 2 Link to comment
Angel12d July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 Also random thought but I saw a picture of the new Arrow suit from behind yesterday and there's buckles on it…Does the costume designer have a fetish for buckles? I'd really like to know. Link to comment
Starfish35 July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 I know this is the opposite of what I've seen people say here, but I'm liking that suit less and less the more I look at it. I was mostly ok with it at first, but I'm starting to hate the football player look it gives SA. 8 Link to comment
wonderwall July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 Sorry you feel that way Starfish35! At least DR looks fine as hell? :) Sucks they're gonna have to put a helmet on that. But hey, that'll make it easier to have more kickass Diggle stunts. 1 Link to comment

I was mostly ok with it at first, but I'm starting to hate the football player look it gives SA. I feel better about it than I did when I first saw it but I'm still pretty meh on the whole thing. I'm hoping it looks better in the episodes. I also think Diggle's helmet looks ridiculous, like he looks like one of the Power Ranger's. But if it means he gets to be out in the field doing stunts instead of getting stuck in the foundry or wherever, then I'll be fine with it eventually! 5 Link to comment
Starfish35 July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 At least DR looks fine as hell That he does. It is a consolation. :) But yeah, very wary of this helmet idea. 1 Link to comment
SmallScreenDiva July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 Yeah, I'm kind of the opposite on the new Arrow suit. Hated the poster image. Thought it didn't look too bad at the SDCC live reveal. And I'm kinda OK with it in that grainy photo. But I'll save my verdict until I see it on the show. Might just be the angle but those shoulder pads don't look as bad. As for David ... OH. MY GOD! Is it me, or does he look taller and leaner? Not a fan of the helmet, but we'll see. 4 Link to comment

BunsenBurner July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 I was talking to my 5 year old niece today about Arrow. It's her most favorite show on TV. She's only allowed 2 hours a week so she chooses carefully. She likes the new Green Arrow look and has already demanded, in a nice way, that I make it for her. She wants to wear it while she is skateboarding! She thinks it will protect more parts! 12 Link to comment

Stephen Amell @amellywood 6h6 hours agoDuring S2 hiatus I grew a beard & fashioned a goatee while shaving it. Looked like someone with a record trying to blend into a new city. https://twitter.com/amellywood/with_replies Honestly, how many times has SA or the EPs said that they're doing their own version of GA and that they're using the comics only as a starting point? And how many times do people have to point out the already significant differences between the comics and the show? Edited July 30, 2015 by tv echo 9 Link to comment

I asked her why and she said , "All he does is run, silly!" She said that doesn't make him a superhero. OQ and CL(her second favorite) do martial arts, parkour and other things that make them real. She has watched all their workout (parkour and dance) videos ad nauseum and loves them. She's driving her mother crazy as she copies and tries to do everything they do. She is now in a mixed martial arts class, gymnastics and dance because of Arrow. 10 Link to comment

kismet July 31, 2015 Share July 31, 2015 (edited) I honestly need to see the suit in action. I do like that he is wearing a shirt underneath it, it makes me think that he can always add a long sleeve shirt underneath it for inclement weather in the winter. I grew up in New England, so layering under uniforms is nothing new for me. Usually I am not a fan of butt ruching... but hot damn, his ass looks fine in those pants! As for the goatee - I'm sorta on the fence. I honestly don't know if SA has the face to pull off a Van Dyke. But a nicely trimmed & groomed Van Dyke can look really good on some guys. A good example of that is Jay Ryan from BATB. There have also been other sexy van dykes & maybe some goatees over the years, just can't think of all of thier names right now. I will say that the COMIC Green Arrow goatee is absolutely hideous & that would not look good on Arrow. It would be a nice Halloween/Gag costume. But no way can SA make that look good. It takes a special person to make that look good. I can only think of a handful of people. I do think its funny that SA's so against it on social media & that Guggenheim even responded to it in an article. That being said, if you wikipedia goatees, there is a special mention of the Green Arrow and his goatee. So I can understand why some comic fans might be curious if they'll get it at least for part of a season. There is also theories of it connected to evil characters & counter-culture, which are interesting connections I never thought of when thinking about facial hair. Edited - Apparently there is a difference betweena goatee & a van dyke. Thx Catrox14! So I took out goatee & applied van dyke where is was appropriate.

catrox14 July 31, 2015 Share July 31, 2015 #petpeevealert....it's not a goatee! A goatee is only the hair on the chin (like a goat). The mustache with the beard on the chin is a Van Dyke. This is driving me batty. I'm sorry. The showrunners should know better, dammi! Link to comment

This is driving me batty. I'm sorry. The showrunners should know better, dammi! I seriously didn't know there was a difference. Or a special name for it. I just always understood a goatee as facial hair around the mouth & lips. That the longer part on the chin was optional. But a trim & neat goatee in my head is probably just a Van Dyke. Thank you for educating me... who knew you could learn so much from a few social media posts?? In that case I revise my earlier posting... I was thinking of a Van Dyke could possibly but probably not look good on SA. A goatee... nah that will never look good. And that picture looks like he is lost for a Renaissance Fair or an extra on Galavant. 4 Link to comment

BkWurm1 July 31, 2015 Share July 31, 2015 (edited) lmao this is hilariously terrible. I can't believe some people want this: Wow. There is just no context in which our Oliver Queen would choose a style like that. (Beyond a costume party) And now unless it turns out that Felicity has a serious Robin Hood fetish (hey, she did have that poster, it remains possible) there is no way she would allow Oliver to choose a style like that.

catrox14 July 31, 2015 Share July 31, 2015 I've liked McDonough since way back in "Boomtown" which was cut down too soon. He was terrific in "Justified" as a skeevy, creepster. He was great in "Band of Brothers". Really versatile actor IMO. Let's hope the writing is good for him too, although he can spin crap into gold. 3 Link to comment
