ARROW Season Finale "Sacrifice" Poll & Discussion

Probably the best Season finale of a show I've seen in recent times!

"How Laurel survived a slab of concrete falling on her?".....

Simple. Those b(o)(o)bs! Good grief man!

Did Malcolm die or not? Some people say he passed out, others saw he died, and then Oliver tells Tommy that he didn't kill him... Which is it?

Excellent finale by the way, Supernatural's was just as good!

If they could bring back Deadshot, they can definitely bring back Malcolm. The show needs a Merlyn and Tommy definitely died so I'd bet on Malcolm surviving. Unless Malcolm had an illegitimate bastard somewhere.

LOL @Cuban don't you have a girlfriend or a job you need to go to man. Always comin' out guns ablazin'.

John Barrowman was signed on for season two as a regular if I'm correct?! So I think he just passed out...

lol because the face paint has worked out so well for him in the past! You're right though he does need to stop being called "The Hood" it annoys me.

Great season finale. This episode was a emotional roller coaster. They hit all the right points. Kudos to the writers for not going the predictable route that everyone thought it would go with Tommy. I told people the writers have not did what people expected the entire season and they did it once again.

Loved the way Tommy went out on this. Tommy grew as a person and stayed on the side of good instead of going in his father footstep. His mother death did not change his character for the wrong, all that stuff elevated his character to stay on the side of good. He hates people getting killed and the ones killing people and they stayed true to the character. Glad he tried to prevent his father from his plans even though he had 0% chance of stopping him. I dont know how he did that after listening to one of the most saddest voice-mails. I really felt Malcolm pain after hearing it. There was tears for him when he went away.

John Barrowman is a f'in boss son. He made me jump the same way Tommy did when he raised his voice to him. He has to come back. he is a fan favorite. People thought Green Arrow was going to prevent the glades from getting destroyed. Will this be Arrow version of No Man's Land. Hope the earthquake attract more villains to Star City. Lex could help rebuild it at least behind the scenes. Glad the writers let the villain accomplish his goal and stay one step ahead of the hero. Another kudos for not going the predictable route.

What a way to hear about your father's death through a press conference and in that circumstance of your mother confessing everything.

Wouldn't Maoira get off because she was being ransomed to partake into everything with her husband dying, another one getting kidnapped, and trying to protect her family?

I like where the character of Det. Lance ended up. He realized that the Hood is trying to help the city for the greater good.

All and all a fantastic season 1. Season 2 cannot come any sooner. Think they will pick up right where Season 1 left off hopefully.

@Wen
There are more entertainment for comic book stuff than just movies. DC has games and animated movies being made on a regular basis.

I would love to see The Question, but it better be Vic Sage and not Renee Montoya damn it. I love Nightwing but I do not want to see him on here unless he appears much younger then Oliver. I like the idea that if Batman is out there he is about the same age as Oliver.

@Griffin The actor that plays Oliver is 32 how old do you think Year One Batman should be? Bruce Wayne became Batman in his mid to late 20s.

Malcolm's Merlyn Scene's

@Ceejay And Batman uses what exactly? Oh yeah, his fists, and wins every time.

I'm hoping Malcolm isn't dead but for season 2 I'd prefer to see a new big bad. Even if Malcolm isn't dead he'll most likely be locked up so I'm expecting a new big bad for present day and a new big bad for the island now that Fyers is gone aswell.

Also glad they didn't go the Spiderman route with Tommy taking over from his father and becoming the new Dark Archer.

So, nobody mentions about the Ferris airline cameo?
Anyway, i think this is the best episode of season 1.

The last 3 episodes are just amazing.
It does turn to be more exciting than I expected.

Overall good season one finale.

Issues:
1.Tommy's death. Not sure where that came from but it was unexpected and also showed character growth, though who's gonna be Oliver's nemesis now?

2. Dinah/Laurel: Hot, but irritating. Sometimes her part in the show seems pointless such as that crap about her sister being alive. Puh-leeze.

3. Mask/Name: What is it with CW shows and calling the comic heroes anything but the name they should have. Example, Smallville's "The Blur". And why the heck do Huntress get an awesome mask and Green Arrow get stuck with a stupid ass name and face paint that's supposed to somehow protect his identity? In season two they should at least call him Arrow or I'll even take "Archer". But not "The Hood." jeez

I really enjoyed this episode. It was an awesome season finale. Very emotional & I like that the writers did not go the predictable route. I liked how the "undertaking" arc ended & the episode was very satisfying. I'll be looking forward to season two.
