Arrow 3x23 My Name Is Oliver Queen: Episode Discussion

my name is oliver queen
3x23 - episode discussion

THE HEART-STOPPING
SEASON FINALE



Everyone’s lives are in danger as Ra’s al Ghul (guest star Matt Nable) puts forth his final plan. Oliver/Al Sah-him (Stephen Amell) must decide if he’s strong enough to take on this new role and what it will mean for everyone on Team Arrow, and his soul.

John Behring directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti & Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Marc Guggenheim & Jake Coburn (#323).

Basic Rules:
  • Be Respectful of other posters. Not everyone is going to agree or have the same views. Discussions are encouraged, but let’s keep things civil.
  • No Character/Actor Bashing. We love your opinions on storylines, but keep in mind that these are real people who are just trying to do the best with what they are given. We might not always like how things turn out, but just remember things can always get better.
  • Everything is a spoiler until it has aired.
  • Any talk of Illegal Downloading should not be brought up here. Live Streams & such can be discussed through PM's.
  • Most importantly, HAVE FUN!

It was an ok episode, as far as finale, it didn't really grab me, it was a great episode if you are for Olicity. Though I did like Oliver kind of passing the torch to the new, improved Team Canary lol jk. TA.

I absolutely loved that Ollie gave the torch to her first too but think my favorite scene was the scene with Quentin

Also been pretty much a week, so going to de-top this

it was a real cheesy ending looked like a series finale but would be a bad one as that too

yep, Laurel's scenes were great loved her speech to Quentin, and her kicking ass. Nyssa was so proud of her

other than that, it's hard to find anything good..I feel like they're kinda ruining Felicity's character. when Ray was working on stopping the virus and they heard that Oliver was in trouble, she went totally insane and put him before everyone else. it was ridiculous, really, when Ray said thousands could die and she was just all "but it's Oliver!!"..um, okay and not to mention her flying in the suit, omg. even Ray has a hard time controlling it but she had no trouble with it and fit in it perfectly ehm, strange.. all this O/F stuff is pushed too much.

I liked Oliver recognizing that the others are great heroes but I didn't think it made sense at all that he just left the city. oh I forgot, he let Malcolm be Ra's now?? seriously? and that's the time he chooses to leave it all behind pfft, coward. it's really disappointing because he completely forgot his cause, what he'd promised when he came back from the island. plus, he said he can't be The Arrow with Felicity. well, the thing is that he likes it or not it's not something he can choose because it's already a part of him, so whoever he ends up with will have to accept both and be able to live with that person. and it's not the Lauriver shipper talking. right now I wouldn't want this Oliver to be anywhere near Laurel, it's strictly about him.
I was actually joking about an ending like that with O/F driving off to the sunset a few weeks ago because their scenes were sort of crying for something so sappy as that but I didn't think it'd actually happen man, was I wrong. I don't know..I hope we don't have to put with many scenes like that in the next season cause I don't know what the show'll become..

Laurel's scene that I enjoyed the most was the one with her father that was a great scene

I know they wanted their original TA scene, but I felt it was weird that Laurel wouldn't have anything to say to Oliver, they should've kept her in that scene.
