I wonder if we will ever see Justin Hartley guest star on the show.
I never liked his version of green arrow. Amell's is a lot better imo

No, most of Arrow-GAF noticed that too lol. and I assume she put on weight or something
He played Oliver Queen better though, he actually had fun. Amell is basically Batman 24/7.
To me it looks like she lost weight. There's also something about her eyes hmm.
There's another Arrow show?
No, smells like Smallville.

Hartley and Welling could play a couple homeless guys who live in the Glades that talk shit to each other and occasionally cross the Arrow.

I have always thought it'd be neat if he came on the show as Hal Jordan. Not even as Green Lantern, but just Hal, since him and Ollie are so close in the comics. We've seen Ferris Air referenced already after all.

Smallville was hot garbage by the time Green Arrow joined, but I really liked his portrayal of Ollie. Ollie should have some fun.
True, but we're actually watching Batman With Archers, not Green Arrow.
Which is one of it's greatest failings, I think. Even if I were to accept this is just Batman under a different name, I can't think of anything it actually does that's better than what I've seen in numerous other batman shows. Vertigo as Joker was weak to almost every joker I've ever seen and there wasn't much of a dynamic between him and 'batman' like there should be. He was just a crazy guy and his relationship with Arrow ended there. Deathstroke, with his incessant whining, is a shadow of the badass merc found in Teen Titans (either the comic or show). Ra's al Ghul hasn't really been elaborated upon, but I doubt he'll top Begin's interpretation. Roy is a shitty Dick Grayson. Diggle and Felicity are an ok Alfred and Oracle I guess? I don't even know who Bat-Thea is supposed to be. Nor am I sure who Merlyn would be. Owlman maybe? If we're going by Snyder's interpretation, then he's a crappy Owlman too, though as a villain Merlyn is one of the better ones in arrow, which isn't saying much but there you go. Edit: Actually, Merlyn isn't a Batman villain at all. Super rich corperate psychodad of best friend who was interested in hero's main love interest? Hello, Norman Osborn.
The show really had a big opportunity in taking Arrow and establishing the series mythos for a wider audience. Rather than Ra's al Ghul, they could have taken that 7 seven weapon clan concept Lemire created in his run of Green Arrow and elaborated on it. He never had enough time to give most of the clans the full development they deserved. Only the Arrow clan and maybe the Mask and Spear Clan got development. The rest were kinda shafted. They could have milked multiple seasons out of them if they wanted to. They had the opportunity to create their own entire cast of villains that could potentially become iconic rouges in the franchise as a whole, like Diggle is now a comics character as well. And it was a mythology that was not only totally unique to Arrow, but even justified the use of such an outdated weapon to some extent.
That would be a show I'd be very excited to watch. I have no desire to watch a second rate batman, especially when Scott Snyder and other writers are absolutely killing it with Batman comics, while Green Arrow had 1 great writer in the entire new 52 run so far out of 3 and made a few appearances in an offshoot justice league comic. If I want good green arrow stuff, my options are far more limited than batman, so why not develop the unique property you have? I could understand wanting to use some bigger villains like Deathstroke just to get the franchise's feet off the ground, but by season 3, they have no reason to still be relying on Batman the way a healthy person fakes a disability for a welfare check.

The whole point of him being Batman now is that he can grow into an emotionally well adjusted Green Arrow. While we watch the tragedy of Batman staying Batman and ending up...

Ollie isn't as nearly obsessed as Bruce is and is very emotionally adjusted despite his PTSD...get out of here with the surface level batman comparisons.
Plastic surgery and dramatic weight loss
Oliver's also dumber than a box of rocks and his toys are nowhere near as good.

Well, can't deny she wears the hell out of that outfit.
That looks strangely ok. Except for the lips. They look strange. Kind of.

Hmm, that link isn't working for me. Think it's something on my end.
Here's a direct link to a rehost in case anyone needs it.
Costume looks good.

Costume looks okay, but something about the photo itself makes it look like it's an ad for a Halloween costume.

Looks good, but I'm not a hundred percent happy with the mask.
But she looks badass. And sexy.

I miss the umm... "assets" of Sara's outfit. IF YOU GET MY DRIFT.
Boobs.
It's the emotionless face. Who looks like this when he is about to kick ass? She looks like Mild Cat with that.
