Is there any reason to think the new Green Arrow isn't Roy? It would explain the flips and if he screws something up later on, it would be an easy set up for Punished Roy on the island as well. Plus he's already been cleared of being him so he'd be more likely to do it I think.

New Green Arrow sure seems to be Roy. Colton has said he hasn't been allowed to shave his facial hair, so presumably they'll film all his flashforward stuff, he'll shave and then they'll unmask him. That said, I can't understand why he'd be running around and not talk to at least Diggle and Felicity.

The other option is William from the future, but they did say they were staying grounded and not scifi this year.

Or it's someone new. That is Oliver's GA suit though, so it'd make sense if they had access to his gear.


Also someone pointed out that over on Legends, in the future the code to Smoak Industries is... 4587. It's been a subtle arc number in the show, not as obvious as 52.

Decent enough premiere.

Not sure I like the idea of them adding a flashforward trope. It's been done to death already.

Something nobody talked about but the scene transition and framing from the new GA to the flashforward was god tier.

We still don't know about the mystery inmate right?

Loved the premiere, imo better than Flash and Supergirl.

Where are you guys getting the time travel info from, or is it just speculation?

Amell looked really badass in prison but knowing he will shave his beard just makes me sad.

Does anybody recognize that inmate that was getting picked on?
I swear he looks so familiar... like I've seen him in another superhero tv show as a guest character... I wana say I saw him either Smallville or another dc tv show, but having hard time remembering

I only know him from the Freddy Vs Jason movie.

Ep 1 was fantastic. Destroyed Flash's premiere. I wish that show would wake from its groggy mediocrity. BL is amazing. I don't have many doubts about Legends being solid again this year. I forgot Supergirl still exists!

Man, that flash forward twist at the end was something.

Really good premiere overall. Oliver and Rene both had some great scenes.

Arrow with flash forwards twenty years in the future, Barry disappearing, and Nora showing up from the future. I wonder how that all lines up?

Holy shit! That was honestly the most I've been engrossed in an episode of Arrow since season 5. The show feels different, like it's way more confident and focused.

Any ideas on who the masked vigilante is?

But how can future william be in the present if he's suppose to be future william?

It's Roy.

Yeah, they made it painfully obvious that it's Roy under that hood. Anyone getting worked up & upset if it turns out to be him really should reel it in a bit.

At least if doesn't turn out to be him, you'll be happy. But when it likely does; you be as annoyed. But, the guy literally did all of Roy's Red Arrow antics.

That said; I guess there could be some super-fuckery with the flash-forward being 20 years from now & it still being William who came back after the flash-forwards. But that sounds so damn convoluted my eyes crossed just typing it.

Strongest premiere the show ever had. That raw shower fight scene was amazing
