A lot of live-action superhero shows tried to win us over with heroics, or world-building, or cool costumes, in their opening minutes. But the opening Arrow’s pilot is pure style. From Oliver running through the forest to him lighting a bonfire with an arrow to his monologue about turning himself into a weapon, this pilot completely sells the island castaway’s badassery.
