I'd think that was a fan-film trailer if no one told me otherwise. I'm not a Green Arrow fan but it looks bad, even for CW.

I love GA but man, I'm so sick of the "we need to make a team for the hero" bullshit. I didn't even bother to watch the trailer. I saw the banner image and knew it would be shit.

The trailer doesn't even hint at anything close to what's shown in the banner. It's just the Green Arrow guy pretending to be half-naked Tony Stark, except it's not cool because he's not building armor, he just has arrows. It actually makes it seem that the show's main/only appeal will be man abs.

Where did the tennis balls come from? Why is CW even a channel again?

Take Robin Hood, make him like Tony Stark, but more physically like Batman with Hawkeye's abilities. I guess this is to try and get all the tweens (mainly girls interested).

The guy's a billionaire and all he can come up with to "fight the ills of society" is arrows?

Clearly you've never read the comics. Or maybe you've never seen that his name is Green Arrow, or heard of someone called Robin Hood.

I caught the last half of the premiere last night by chance. The action was right on the edge of cheesy and decent, it was kinda fun seeing a buncha dude's get arrows to the chest even if there was no blood. It seemed okay, just pretty bland with the action being the main attraction. Anyone else see it?

I gotta say: it wasn't that bad. I almost liked it.
If it had been connected the bigger DC universe as a whole, I would have loved it.

Yeah, I expected it to be a lot worse. It's got potential. They need to lose that narration, though. Amell not a particularly bad actor, but he's not a good one, and he's quite a bit worse when he's reading that shit. And unless it's written by Nicholas Pileggi for a Martin Scorcese movie, narration from the main character generally seems like a cop out.

Yeah, I caught the mask on the stake at the start.
Watched the first 30 minutes of a replay. Was not impressed. Just another soap opera, with a little comic book mixed in. Muted after that and filled in my ballot.

Just watched the pilot and liked it. Going in with lowered expectations can do wonders I suppose. Needs a mask though because the paint shit's not cutting it.

I am getting really tired of this fucker's shitty acting (it got much worse very quickly), the shirtless scenes, that horrible fucking narration, and the sister character. I'm also kind of pissed at the way the show treated Floyd, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised since the showrunners made the fucking Green Lantern movie.

And Bullseye is a Marvel villain and this is a DC show with a villain similar to Bullseye!

Did anyone stick with it? I saw a Deathstroke episode that was cool and a guy at FYE told me Deadshot's awesome on it too, so I'm thinking of catching up on season 1. It's also neat that it's getting action figures, that's a rarity for tv shows these days.
