Just went outside and pulled out a box of Green Arrow comics. I have not read one in ???? 20 ??? 25 you know I don't remember. I did stop buying them about 1985 give or take.

That isn't a new series though. It was a pilot for a new series that was split up for webisodes then released on video this week.

That isn't a new series though.

Word is they are going to do it, or are doing it. Still from time to time you will see shows that are made on one site. Actors walking over to another show to play someone.

This show is shot in Canada.

Uh....no....you are wrong on several things.

1. Those BSG actors that have been on Arrow were not even involved in Blood and Chrome because it was a prequel and filmed a long time ago.

2. It has been know for almost a year that it wasn't going to series and the pilot has been sitting around forever.

The network’s Battlestar Galactica prequel has been hurtling through space in various incarnations since Syfy decided last March not to go forward with the pilot for a potential series. Instead, Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome debuted as a weekly web series on the Machinima Prime YouTube channel, garnering around 8 million views. The network is now following through on its promise to give it an airdate, setting February 10 from 9-11 PM for its world TV premiere as a two-hour full-length movie. The Universal Cable Productions pic will include scenes not included in the online release, and it will be available on DVD, Blu-ray and VOD on February 19. Blood & Chrome is set during the first Cylon war and centers on young William Adama (Luke Pasqualino). David Eick is executive producer along with Michael Taylor, who wrote the teleplay from a story by Taylor, Eick, Bradley Thompson and David Weddle. All are veterans of Syfy’s original Battlestar series. Jonas Pate (Caprica) directed.

I recognized James Callis (Baltar) on Arrow last week. Who was the other one?

This is so , but I will answer this one. Then please PM me.

1st Arrow as with most CW is shot in Canada. This I know 1st hand. Their was two actors in the last eps of Arrow. Both Villains (per say). The Prequel to Blood was done sometime ago, then again so was GI Joe/IM3, etc.

Last I heard and this was only last month. The Blu/DVD is selling really well (Blood). SyFy will be the one's who fund the show. I also know Prop people (This is why I have a house full of Hero/Stand in Props). That are/have/making props for blood.

Keep in mind, I have seen them spend Millions to just stop before they get to set.

Who is the Dodger's D.C. Comics relative character? most of the villains if not all have been based on a comic character...

I've really enjoyed the island backstory from the past 3 episodes so far. Felicity is pretty cool (and hot!) but part of me wishes it is Babs doing the hi-tech hacking and investigating.

Anyone have an opinion on the worst portrayal of a DC comic book villain in the series so far? For me it's Seth Gabel's Count Vertigo hands down. I mean I think he's a cool actor. I liked his character on Fringe and all, but his version of Vertigo...not so much.

Tory Foster, she was one of the Five. FYI she seem bigger on BSG then Arrow and they had less food in space.

Gaius Baltar was the Main Villain.

I like the backstory more and more. It gives you more of how he got to be were he is. I just want to know about Wilson.

As for the Villains. If I never read any of the Green Arrow comics. It would be ok. But they are doing to many change. That's all and fine. I can live with it. I only watch 3 lives shows.

That was her?!?! I thought so at first, but she did look umm "fuller" than she did on BSG.

All the first aid training Yao-Fei give Oliver and he didn't even know you plug the hole after removing the bullet, Slade was lucky he didn't lose his arm.

 

[Skywalker(OG)Kush]

Am I the only one that thinks its weird seeing Crixus play slade? While I liked those episodes its hard to separate him in the roles. I am waiting for him to rip that military gear off and go full barbarian ape ****!

 

[hunnipot85]

I've gotten used to it, but I am all for him to rip off his clothes and pull a Crixus on Arrow.

Just finished watching tonight's episode.

So many revelations. I thought that the first episode that Geoff Johns wrote for the show was cool. But this one was so much better. Best episode for me so far. Now we know why John Barrowman looks so young.

I can't wait for next week.

Now we know why John Barrowman looks so young.

Was that explained, and I just missed it?

 

[bicoid18]

Not in so many words. But it could be explained by

Spoiler

his time in Nanda Parbat.

 

[hunnipot85]

I love this show. I never watched Smallville or gave it a shot, but I am really glad I tried out Arrow. (All those shirtless promo pics probably helped, but oh well)

Can't wait for the next episode. Love the Huntress!

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

This was one of the few episodes where the main plot was more interesting than the island flashback.
