Arrow: The Green Arrow TV show

Man this show gets better episode. To think I was going to write it off when I first heard about. Season 2 is phenomonal so far, if they can score Neeson for Ras Al Ghul, I might shit my pants

I doubt they could afford Neeson, just an idea. But yeah, an Arab person would do the job just fine.

Had no idea Nolan called shots for this show. Considering the quality and tone of the show, it makes sense

Or it could mean he just wants to do it for the sake of doing it?

I don’t get this crap where “If you appear on broadcast TV, your career obviously isn’t worth shit”. Sure, if the only jobs you could get were on Broadcast TV, but Liam Neeson does not have that issue, neither does Sam.

Believe it or not, some actors do some roles for the fun of it. They’ll get paid handsomely sure, but they don’t all look down on shit like this.

Now, who knows if Neeson would even feel that way, but if he did show up randomly as R’as on Arrow, it sure as hell wouldn’t be because his career’s at a low. And as it’s been said, it’s probably a moot point considering the salary Neeson would command by even showing up.

Liam Neeson did reprise his role of Qui Gon Jinn in The Clone Wars animated series…

Yeah, it’s almost as dumb as Samuel L. Jackson doing a guest spot in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:

Wait what?

And what about Steve Blum doing Toonami for free for months?

Again, for some actors, love of what they’re doing supercedes everything else. We’re not saying Neeson will do it or should. But to say that “Man, if he does this shit his career is shot” is a terrible argument.

since when is Liam Neeson that fucking elite of an actor? Especially considering if they use him, it would likely be a guest spot (just one or two episodes). And TV series are the new place for a lot of movie actors to come flex their chops and make a paycheque between movies.

lol yeah, sorry…had him mixed up there :stuck_out_tongue:

But yet AGAIN, the ONLY issue is funds which most of us agree they probably wouldn’t have considering the budget they had for Arrow before.

But even then, if an actor wants to do something he’ll do it. This is a new day. Not many things are beneath an actor’s scope. Actors are nowhere near as snobbish for roles as they were in the past.

actually it explains everything…since last week the worlds have officially merged. the dark knight world and arrow are clearly one universe now.

also dat ending of arrow…not as surprising as it should be. since its clear in ollie’s head she died before she got to the island…aka dat heel turn.

i think it’s gonna end up being a very blurred line. The league seemed to exist in the Nolan verse just didn’t have a name.

Not saying Arrow is connect to TDK, but who says a group like the League can’t have many names? A mythical legendary group like that is bound to have many alias across the globe.

Just throwing it out there, not making any concrete statements.

meant to say it had a different name…league of shadows vs league of assassins is really semantics.

didnt know dr.ivo is important in the dc universe. interesting

Good to finally meet Ra’s Al Gul, I was expecting him to have a more badass introduction, but less is more I guess.

lol Diggle being told to step aside by a girl half his size and weight :lol: Still not buying into this actress.

uh? ra didnt show up yet.

Indeed. Though I doubt he’ll be doing the same thing because…well, because if he did, this would be one short series.

Uh…Ra’s wasn’t in this episode.

Are you guys sure? The guy that called himself a doctor, literally said he was going to save the world. The pirates believe he is just a doctor, it wouldn’t be the first time Ra’s used a dual identity.

The doctor IS important, but not because he’s Ra’s, because he isn’t.

It’s because he’s Arrow’s version of Professor Ivo.

Ivo probably creating super soldier serums, WMD’s (like the earth quake machine) or things on that level. I doubt we’ll see him building any androids in this relatively grounded show

Sorry for not spending my entire youth and adulthood reading comic books :coffee:
