I want to preface this by saying that I really enjoy this show, but I have a serious problem with the last scene of the last episode. How did Laurel know that "the Hood" would come back that night at precisely that time; is that city really that stupid as to waste that amount of resources on having SWAT stay there for hours on end each night until he did show up?

 

Seems like that city is ran by morons; should have blown up city hall instead of the Glades. Of course, that's probably true for a lot of real life cities too :rolleyes:

Serenity's Summer Glau is already on board Arrow season 2, and now THR report that her screen brother Sean Maher has also signed on as the evil Mark Scheffer, better known as DC supervillain Shrapnel. In the comics Shrapnel is made of metal and has superhuman strength and stamina, but it's unlikely that this will carry over to the show -- although he does share some of the same traits as his comic counterpart, as THR reckon he'll be a "serial bomber who places Starling City in a grip of terror and threatens the life of Sebastian Blood (Kevin Alejandro)". Maher will guest star in the tenth episode of the CW show.

SPOILER ALERT***** So Canary was trained by the League of Shadows! Also as most of you probably noticed the messenger from the league was wearing the same archer outfit as Merlyn did :D *****

 

Such an amazing episode!

Ra's al Ghul is supposed to be??? ?????? in Arabic, "Demon's Head." Is that incorrect? Or are we quibbling pronunciation?

 

The meaning is not in dispute, but rather the pronunciation. There is nothing wrong in wanting the names of characters pronounced correctly.

Also, this season is getting better and better with each episode!

 

With that being said. I hate the way they butcher Ra'hs al Ghul's name. It's Ryyysh, and not Raas.

 

This is how you pronounce it: (2:26 into the video)

Terry McGinnis didn't know how to pronounce it either:

 

The meaning is not in dispute, but rather the pronunciation. There is nothing wrong in wanting the names of characters pronounced correctly.

The writers of the comic-books wanted it to be pronounced as "Raysh" and thus they kept using that pronunciation. No idea why they decided to pronounce it as "Rash" in the Dark Knigh Trilogy and Arrow. I mean, Ra's Al Ghul isn't just a simple rash, he's ready to go all assassin in your ass :p

Oh shoot Arrow looks a bit trapped!

 

btw Felicity in that dress! HUBBA HUBBA!

She is so damn hot! I would hope she would be Olivers love interest but with Black Canary in the picture all bets are off

So little uh Gamble who couldn't get a nickel for his grandma is now bronze tiger. Interesting :)

So happy Black Canary is now on the show. I just love DC and the characters. This show has been awesome since the beginning. Seen all episodes and look forwards to Wednesdays.

Shield is OK but Arrow is better and now with a Flash spinoff will be even more awesome. By the way the Tomorrow People is not a bad show either.

Beware the Bat on Saturdays and Justice League Unlimited also. Very happy

Justice League Unlimited was cancelled a long time ago...and it looks like Beware the Bat is unfortunately on the way out as well....

Oh then they replay it down here. Still fun to watch.

 

If Bat is canceled then CN needs to go as well. They are a joke after canceling GL and YJ

Beware the Bat will be back in January :) And yeah, it's a shame GL and YJ were both canceled, specially the latter. It even ended with a huge cliffhanger. Kinda the same as they did with Wolverine and the X-Men.

 

Playing Arkham Origins when suddenly...

Snip!

That sure is an awesome cameo! :)

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
