Then she's pre-placed and looking for a trigger. Remembee her history; a prosecutor who gets fed up.

Or, they just put her in as a wink to the character and aren't doing anything with it. Because that's what I'm guessing since it's only 3 episodes in which she portrayed said character. She doesn't really look suited for the Manhunter role either if you ask me.

It seems you're already set on the fact that the team will be made, while it's just a mere title. I just think it's a wink at the comic-book team because both the Huntress and Canary were part of it.

Yeah, pretty much all the interesting villains are from Batman, and there are so many of them. League of Shadows including Ra's al Ghul and his daughters, Deathstroke and Deadshot, The Huntress, Bronze Tiger etc. I'm sure there are more but I can't recall any more at the moment. Batman does have the best set of villains in among all the superheroes of DC and Marvel, so it's understandable that Arrow borrows a lot from that.

 

Moving on,

 

I've mentioned it before, I love that Arrow has not butchered Ra's al Ghul's name. There is a correct way to say it and a wrong way. I'm side-eying you, 'The Dark Knight Rises' :whistle:

Speak of Al Ghul's, the actress playing Nyssa al Ghul is Katrina Law. She was on Spartacus along with Manu Bennett(Slade/Deathstroke) and Cynthia Addai-Robinson(FBI agent Amanda Waller). It would appear we have a little reunion.

Easter Eggs:

Nyssa Raatko - Nyssa Raatko is a relatively recent addition to the DC universe, having been introduced in the Batman: Death of the Maidens miniseries back in 2003. Nyssa was born in 18th Century Russia, the result of a tryst between Ra?s al Ghul and a local woman. As a young woman, Nyssa tracked Ra?s al Ghul down and was inducted into the League of Assassins as Ra?s? right hand. However, Nyssa eventually became disillusioned with the League?s plans and distanced herself from the organization, although she did continue to use a Lazarus Pit to extend her life significantly.

ARGUS - Nyssa?s passport had been flagged by ARGUS, which seems to indicate that they?re at least aware of the League of Assassins and their activities. Whether this plays into later episodes remains to be seen.

Tempest - Moira?s Tempest account was first mentioned in ?An Innocent Man?.

Nyssa and Sarah?s First Meeting in Starling - When Nyssa ?drops in? on Sarah, she uses a similar technique to the one used by Sarah in ?Broken Dolls?.

Other Assassin - The assassin who poisoned Laurel and kidnapped Dinah was played by Shaker Paleja. Paleja previously had a bit role in last season?s ?Damaged?. He?s also had bit roles in Smallville and The Tomorrow People.

Tibetan Pitviper Venom - The tibetan pitviper is part of a genus of vipers who possess the ?100 pace venom?, which is said to kill a person after taking one hundred steps. I?m fairly certain that Sarah took more than 100 steps, but don?t quote me on it. Interestingly enough, the World Health Organization has yet to identify an effective antivenom to the pitviper?s poison, so Ollie?s miracle plant seems to be pretty rare.

ARROW?s Season Finale Will Be BIG On Size And Scope

1. Oliver?s 5 years on the Island will be explored over 5 seasons

?Oliver has a back story? and we have a plan to tell that backstory over 5 seasons. That?s the plan but all you ever think about is shooting episode 18 right now. That?s our forty-first episode? and all we think about is we need to make our forty-first episode better than our fortieth episode.?

2. Season Finale will be BIG on size and scope

Which he reveals won?t be finished filming until April 17th.

?Some people haven?t heard about the size and scope of our finale. We are actually saving money on episodes we are shooting right now so that we can put it into the finale. And I have no idea how they are gonna turn that around in time.?

3. Diggle is getting his moment in the sun

The ?Suicide Squad? episode will be all about Diggle, so much so that Amell will only be filming 4/9 days (usually he films up to 7 days) for that episode.

4. Stephen Amell want?s Ra?s al Ghul to be on the show.

?I want Ra?s al Ghul on the show. Let me clarify something about the pronunciation of Ra?s al Ghul. Because Nyssa in the most recent episode says Raysh, but its been established prior by people in Starling city saying its Razz. So I needed to follow suit despite mild protestations made by me. It would be fantastic to see that character on the show. We certainly name dropped him? a lot."

Note: Stephen previously said he desperately wanted Bruce Wayne on the show, so the sudden change in opinion could be a hint.

5. Episode 15 is called "The Promise" and its all about Katie Cassidy's Laurel and Ollie

"Before flying here I watched episodes 14 and 15. There's a scene between Katie Cassidy and I in episode 14 that I'm incredibly proud of and as a whole... the episode 15 is called "The Promise"... and as a whole I was just blown away by that episode. I actually bought wi-fi on the plane yesterday so that I could be in email with the producers and the director just to say I'm very proud to be a part of this. Our 15th episode is by far our best episode of the series."

6. Roy?s role on the team and his relationship with Ollie

?There is an uneasy alliance, because Oliver brought Roy into Team Arrow out of necessity not desire. He needed it at that particular moment. He?s worried. Because, as we are about to explore about what?s happened on the island, things so really bad with Slade, really really bad. He?s determined to not let that happen to Roy... but Roy has a lot to do to prove himself for Oliver to fully trust him.?

This season has been pretty good so far. Though, I really don't like Sarah's character. It feels like the writers are making her stubborn simply for the sake of creating the situations that we've seen up to this point. It just feels really forced.

    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.

The software also includes powerful tools for batch processing, translating subtitles, and converting between different subtitle formats.

Cool audio visualizer control - can display wave form and/or spectrogram Video player uses mpv, DirectShow, or VLC media player Visually sync/adjust a subtitle (start/end position and speed) Audio to text (speech recognition) via Whisper or Vosk/Kaldi Auto Translation via Google translate Rip subtitles from a (decrypted) dvd Import and OCR VobSub sub/idx binary subtitles Import and OCR Blu-ray .sup files - bd sup reading is based on Java code from BDSup2Sub Can open subtitles embedded inside Matroska files Can open subtitles (text, closed captions, VobSub) embedded inside mp4/mv4 files Can open/OCR XSub subtitles embedded inside divx/avi files Can open/OCR DVB and teletext subtitles embedded inside .ts/.m2ts (Transport Stream) files Can open/OCR Blu-ray subtitles embedded inside .m2ts (Transport Stream) files Merge/split subtitles Adjust display time Fix common errors wizard....and more. Subtitle Edit 5.0.0 changelog: Subtitle Edit 5 is a major new release and a big step for the project. For the first time, Subtitle Edit runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux from a single, modern, cross-platform codebase. The builds are self-contained, so no separate .NET installation is required, and on macOS and Linux the needed media components (mpv/ffmpeg) are bundled in. Please read before upgrading: Subtitle Edit 5 is a new application, not just an update of Subtitle Edit 4. It has been rebuilt from the ground up to be cross-platform, so: It is not 100% the same app. The look, layout, and some workflows have changed. Some things are in different places, and a few behave differently than in SE4. Not every SE4 feature exists in SE5 yet. SE5 covers all the core editing, conversion, sync, video playback, OCR, and online services, but some of the more specialized SE4 tools are not available yet. Features will continue to be added. If you rely on a specific SE4 feature that is missing, please keep SE4 installed alongside SE5. The easiest way to run both side by side is to use the Portable versions of SE4 and SE5, which keep their settings separate and do not interfere with each other. Which version should I use? Subtitle Edit 5: recommended for most users on Windows 10 (22H2) or newer, macOS 12+, and Linux. Subtitle Edit 4: please continue to use SE4 if you are on an older Windows version (Windows 7/8), or on older / slower computers where SE5 may not run well. SE4 remains available and is the right choice in those cases. To run SE4 and SE5 at the same time, use the Portable versions - you can try SE5 while keeping SE4 as a fallback.

    • Google Pixel 11 series: Here's what to expect

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Google Pixel 11 series: Here's what to expect by Hamid Ganji Google Pixel 10 series In recent years, Google has successfully turned its Pixel devices into worthy contenders in the smartphone market. The search giant is now preparing to launch the Pixel 11 series in just a few months, and many Pixel fans are likely wondering what Google has in store for them this year. The next lineup of Google smartphones includes four devices: the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. This year, we don’t expect Google to bring revolutionary upgrades to its handsets, and the Pixel 11 series is likely to receive modest hardware improvements alongside a slew of AI-powered features. Here are the rumored specifications of the Google Pixel 11 series ahead of its official debut: When will the new Pixel phones be unveiled? The last two generations of Google Pixel phones (Pixel 9 series and Pixel 10 series) were launched in August, unlike the previous three generations that debuted in October. With that in mind, we expect Google to unveil the Pixel 11 series sometime in August 2026. The exact launch date has yet to be confirmed. Google Pixel 11 CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines How much will the Pixel 11 series cost? Predicting the final price of upcoming smartphones has become increasingly difficult. As you may know, RAM and memory prices are rising sharply, leading to significant increases in the cost of consumer electronics. Recently, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that price increases for some future Apple products are unavoidable, suggesting that the iPhone 18 series could become more expensive. Google has remained tight-lipped about any potential price increases for the Pixel 11 series. If the company manages to maintain last year’s pricing structure, here’s what the lineup could cost: Pixel 11: $799 Pixel 11 Pro: $999 Pixel 11 Pro XL: $1,199 Pixel 11 Pro Fold: $1,799 Given current market conditions, it may be difficult for Google to avoid raising prices unless it adopts cost-saving measures, such as equipping the base model with 8GB of RAM. Google Pixel 11 series anticipated specs: We expect the Google Pixel 11 series to debut with a new Tensor G6 processor as well as an upgraded camera system. The overall design, however, is expected to remain largely unchanged across the lineup. Specifications Pixel 11 Pixel 11 Pro Pixel 11 Pro XL Pixel 11 Pro Fold Display 6.3-inch LTPO AMOLED / 120Hz refresh rate / up to 3100 nits of brightness 6.3-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 6.8-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 8-inch inner screen and 6.4-inch outer display, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness RAM & Processor Tensor G6 / 8-12GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 16GB of RAM Storage options 128GB or 256GB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB Camera 50MP main sensor, 13MP ultra-wide, 10.8MP 5x telephoto, 10.5MP front camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 10.5MP ultra-wide camera, 10.8MP telephoto camera, 10MP front camera, 10MP inner camera Battery 4,840 mAh 4,707 mAh 5,000 mAh 4,658 mAh Software Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 The Pixel 11 series won’t be a major departure from its predecessor, with Google instead focusing on subtle improvements and AI additions such as Gemini Intelligence. However, a patent filed by Google suggests the company is working on a removable battery for its smartphones, and we could see this feature make its way to the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Given that nearly all smartphones today lack removable batteries, such a feature would be a welcome addition to future Pixel devices. That said, it may not arrive with this year’s lineup after all, and the final decision is yet to be made by Google. The Pixel 11 series could also face an uphill battle in the market. In the Android segment, Samsung is performing well with the Galaxy S26 series, while the Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup is also expected to launch next month. On the other hand, Apple is preparing to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max in September alongside its first foldable iPhone.
