Arrow Arrow General Discussion Thread - Part 7

[gohei_]

Amell just put up a pretty funny video regarding the Batkid on his fb.

 

[Dr Lee]

I was just coming on here to comment on that. The way the Amell uses Twitter & Facebook in regard to the show is a really refreshing thing....

Yep, it's nice to see him keeping in touch with his fans in that way. I don't know how common that is among actors.

That has to be

Either:

Roy and Thea

Roy and Det Lance

Roy and Sara

or Felicity and Diggle get a sex change.

 

[gohei_]

Yeah, I'm gonna bet on the latter.

I really like it, especially in comparison to Tom Welling, who I loved, but hated how he pretty much MIA in terms of the media after season 2-3 and didn't do another interview until the very end of season 10. I know its more about trying to keep your privacy, but there were times where I felt like he wasn't really happy in the role and didn't want to be looked at as Superman.

 

[Coconut1214]

It can't be

Spoiler

Sara, she's already been in the Arrow lair so she's not new. I'm going to go with Roy and Det. Lance or Roy and Thea. Where Thea finally wonders why there's a basement in the club she owns that she can't access.

Quentin, that would ruin his whole plausible deniability thing. He is supposed to be like Commissioner Gordon who doesn't want to know.

 

[Dark Raven]

Ok, so

Roy and Thea

or Felicity and Diggle get a sex change.

No to the latter, here is the tweet

Well if it's written like that, that doesn't necessarily suggest two new people in the cave.

He could be saying "It's an #Arrow Cave Friday with @EmilyBett, @david_ramsey, pizza & beer."

Somehow I don't see those two being redacted. t:

In that case:

It sounds to me that the two characters don't necessarily haveto be new or first-timers in the Arrow Cave. Their names might have been redacted to prevent spoilering the plot.

 

[Boy Scout]

This. It came out of nowhere, imo. The writers should avoid that kind of stuff.

He always seemed weirded out by her (obvious) attraction to him.

And honestly, both Oliver and Felicity are better off as partners/friends. "Olicity" would probably ruin what is one of the best things about this show.

I pretty much agree. The more I think about it, the less I want it to happen.

IIRC there are only 2 other people who have been there before Helena and Sara. Somehow I don't see them there at the same time since Helena wouldn't be getting out.

Plot wise it is possible that Laurel and Sara could meet in the Arrowcave but I would lean towards Laurel and Roy being there. Laurel because I don't see how she cannot know his id from that picture I linked to. And Roy because future protege.

Like I have said before if the Olicity people get their way many of them will end up regretting it. The angst will come and Felicity won't be fun and happy anymore.

 

[Boy Scout]

That's how I see it going down, too. It'll be different from (and probably a lot more tolerable than) the typical Laurel/Oliver drama, but it probably won't be what a lot of them are expecting. Arrow may be great, but this is still the CW.

Arrow Exclusive: X-Files Vet Nicholas Lea to Send on a Surprising Journey

Nicholas Lea, who played Mulder and Scully’s longtime nemesis Krycek, will guest-star on The CW’s sophomore hit, TVLine has learned exclusively. The actor will appear in Episodes 12 and 13 as Mark Francis, Walter Steele’s close associate. Francis will have a crucial part in the surprising twist that Moira’s life will take after her murder trial. (...)"

Calling it now: this guy is Ra's Al Ghul and he's the real mastermind behind The Undertaking.

 

[Loki882]

I believe that the "two new people" will probably be Roy and Thea. I'm sure that Roy will be one of them, and Thea would make sense.

 

[Hunter Rider]

They are going to put Ollie with someone at some point and if written well there's no reason it shouldn't work, this show has done a great job so far at avoiding the CW pitfalls and can do so with an Ollie/Felicity relationship, the alternative IS Laurel, he wont just be alone for the shows run.

As for the two new people in the cave, I'm guessing [BLACKOUT]Roy and Thea.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Loki882]

Arsenal and Speedy are coming.

 

[regnak]

I'll repost something I linked to last month

the Arrow part:


William: Please please please tell me I will get to see Katie Cassidy don the Black Canary outfit by season's end on Arrow? And what about Roy becoming speedy?!
Arrow may just shock you by having both of these things happen sooner than you'd expect. "I think as always with these things, I think we surprise people with how fast get to things," boss Andrew Kreisberg hints to us. "If it's a great idea, our instinct is always to pull it forward and figure out the repercussions of it afterwards. If it's a great idea, why wait?"

I am still going with Laurel and Roy. It seems likely the Arrowcave will come before costumes.

 

[Loki882]

I'd much prefer that it be Thea than Laurel, and it would make more sense as well.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Yeah, I don't want Laurel as Black Canary or Roy as Speedy, I'd prefer Roy to be Arsenal and Thea to be Speedy.
