I don't want to sound insulting. But wtf was the point of bringing in Vixen? You could have brought in a dog and it would've served the same purpose. You bring her in to sniff a f***ing toy William's touched? Wow.

What an awful live action interpretation of the character.

Wait did you not watch the episode? Mari was more than a hunter, she was essential to team Arrow getting their first and only win over Darhk. She told them about the lay lines, and the totem.

Vixen provide some needed knowledge of magic and source of the magic. overreaction much?

She did a little bit more than that.

 

[DCnightwing23]

Just finished the episode, I can confirm it was a overreaction. It was just a really riducilous scene before Hulu took a commercial break. Decent episode overall, still not the biggest fan of this interpretation of Vixen. Felt there were moments that felt Vixen's involvement felt forced.

 

[JC00]

watch LOT tonight it's the new death stroke of 2046

I think you are mixed up... That screen was taking from the promo of the next episode of Arrow, not LoT.

 

[DCnightwing23]

Also, am I the only one who think they are under utilizing the villain this season? You have Darhk, then you have some LOA stuff thrown in, Anarky as well. Feels too scrambled, and not enough focus on the villain and his plan. They tease it, then go away from it for weeks. Too much repetitive drama and CW driven b-storylines. Season started off good but it's definitely dipped down in quality.

 

[eplo]

The Deathstroke appearing on Legends is speaking in what sounds exactly like Manu Bennett's unfiltered voice, so I doubt that his 'real identity' is anything other than Slade Wilson.

Sounded nothing like manu? Very little accent if any at all...

 

[Jedi Arrow]

Okay so everyone's said they've seen the E16 promo. Where? I haven't seen it yet.

Also, is Arrow taking a 4-week break too, or just Flash?

 

[HighFivingMF]

Sounded nothing like manu? Very little accent if any at all...

Yeah. Definitely not him.

I don't have a link to it, but there's a picture of him unmasked from tonight's episode. Not Manu at all.

The CW is mum on details, but McLaughlin seems to match a recent casting breakdown for “Rebecca,” a teenage character who appears in Episode 19 — with the potential to recur — and is described as a “smart, snarky” “escapee of a dangerous cult.”

with in the show Oliver said he couldn't reach Jo9hn Constantine and for now cause he's litterally in hell battling out with demons

he doesn't know of doctor fate or Zatana (or her dad Zatra) or Raven. but he has met Vixen and her powers are related to magic and she said they need some that knows magic to battle darhk's magic.

off the show some time lasat month marc Guggen heim said that Johon Constantine was a one time deal and for this season will not be seen again

I think you are mixed up... That screen was taking from the promo of the next episode of Arrow, not LoT.

No I just checked and had buddy from work next to me check as well . When the show comea back after a month they will be dealing with the return of cupid. there nothing that said that the new death stroke will be with her or he'll be the big bad villain when the Arrow shows returns. and I just put up the video below sara confrontthe new death stroke in the same page you took the quote from.

and I put it up in the legend of tomorrow thread and there was a image scene in the general discussion thread which shows older Oliver face off against the new death stroke too. I don't know about him showing up in arrow. but I've looked and haven't seen a peep about the new death stroke showing there yet.

I will admit when I'm wrong when it shows up

 

[zenith16]

ok so after legend of tomorrow just ended I been looking at this video

over and over


It weirdly seem's like Grant Wilson in stilled image form. but in motion it's still too blurry.

it's likely not him at all like JC said. but this feel like what happened when the calculator hire mercenary's and i couldn't them from the darhk's ghost's in H.i.v.e. and shadow spire just prior (only excption showspire had red) but if you the red they look like the two.

It'll be interesting to find out who that is.

 

[SpideyVille]

So wait ... Is Dahrk supposed to die in the next episode? Is Malcolm going to be the new head of H.I.V.E.?

 

[Primal Slayer]

I wanna know why Laurel is using the Canary Cry in the lair.

 

[SpideyVille]

I wanna know why Laurel is using the Canary Cry in the lair.

I'm watching the trailer now and it appears that some people have Oliver stripped on a table in the Lair. In the next shot ,it seems as though Curtis is at a computer monitoring something while Lance and Diggle watch over Oliver. I'm guessing they're trying to revive him, or snap him out of something.

 

[zenith16]

Something that really bothered me about last night's episode, form a story perspective, is that they made a lot of changes in Oliver this season, with the relationship, the mayorial campaign, and his son ... and by episode's end, he basically lost it all.

We know he'll get back with Felicity, and we know he will eventually re-connect with Williams in 10 years or whatever, but it looks like they also gave up the campaign for Mayor, which pretty much means that Darhk's wife will be in power and there's no one to stand up against her in the light, which was the theme of this whole season. I just really hope that it's not too late for him to get back in the running, and that they don't just drop the arc together, because this was the first time in years that Oliver had a solid arc for himself that didn't involve anyone else.

oh I almost missed this. I said some thing about these in the taken thread. but it was swallowed up with the olicty bickering sadly.

post #70
page:3 of the Taken thread

onthe last not with how the show ended they said William's Mom is making sure they aren't found again by not telling team arrow and supposedly anyone else where they are going to live but with what happened to roy . I think they can be found again . cause they aren't using witness protection via the US Marshal's.

so it'll be hard to writer off in she 's the one in the grave list.

Oh and darhk's wife now has an easy win as mayor.

 

[TheRedWraith]

Just finished the episode, I can confirm it was a overreaction. It was just a really riducilous scene before Hulu took a commercial break. Decent episode overall, still not the biggest fan of this interpretation of Vixen. Felt there were moments that felt Vixen's involvement felt forced.

I agree she did feel forced, a better way that I can see would have been for the episode to open the same way with Mari chasing them only for it to be revealed to be a trap by the ghosts as Malcolm had dispatched them to take the totem from her so he could increase his own power.

The trap would almost get her but she would succeed nonetheless, this act would lead her to track the ghosts to star city where she would go to Oliver for his help as GA's exploits fighting the ghosts would have been documented. Then it would flow into the rest of the episode the same, minus the bloodhound bit, to find Darhk she would just use her ley line method.

 

[Arrowshieldfan]

So wait ... Is Dahrk supposed to die in the next episode? Is Malcolm going to be the new head of H.I.V.E.?

I think darhk still the big threat. It is just a set back. I expect a prison breakout at some point. I think darhk will want revenge for losing his powers.

The promo seem to show he get beat up likely order by HIVE to avoid him giving info on the organization

There should be a power struggle between him and Ruve Adams for HIVE...The real question should is how Malcolm manage to get into prison without no one noticing who he is?

 

[BlueLanternKal]

After watching 4.15 Taken again, I think this whole episode was an elaborate gambit by Merlyn. Hear me out.

Merlyn went straight to Darhk, who by LoA tradition is his sworn enemy, after losing the title of Ra's. He told Darhk about William. Darhk played right into that by kidnapping the kid.

This in turn would force Oliver's hand. Merlyn knew Oliver would stop at nothing until he got his son back and took out Darhk for good.

With Darhk now out of the picture he can destroy HIVE and steal whatever Genesis is and use it at his own discretion.

Well played Dark Archer, well played.

Yeah. I guess that's the way it's going to go down. He keeps telling Thea he's doing something for the greater good or something to that effect.

 

[AspieXLDS]

Yeah. I guess that's the way it's going to go down. He keeps telling Thea he's doing something for teurhe greater good or something to that effect.

True... but let's keep in mind that this is the guy who, for the greater good of Starling City, was going to kill thousands of its citizens. For Malcolm, the greater good is what benefits him the most, not anyone else. And I say this as a fan of Barrowman and the character of Malcolm. I tend to enjoy characters who are absolute *******s.

 

[Jedi Arrow]

It's about time. I was getting sick of Malcolm being affably evil. If he truly turns out to be the baddie for the rest of this season and Darhk is just a red herring, that'd be absolutely brilliant.

 

[Arrowshieldfan]

I think they doing similar situation to Buffy.......two villains Spike/Druscilla for most of the season then Angel emerge and become the real threat. I guess it the same situation here. Darhk and Ruve (who will probably play a bigger role) are the current threat and then Merlyn emerge as the true villain.

I think Merlyn will die this season
