I thought it was a pretty good episode because it was almost all superhero stuff and not much relationship drama. If getting paralyzed made Felicity hallucinate her inner goth, what the gently caress is going to happen now that she killed 10,000 people with a keystroke?

Tiggum posted:How does that even work? Obviously he doesn't get powered up any time anyone dies anywhere, because otherwise he wouldn't even need to do anything, he could just sit in his lair and absorb power constantly. But he also doesn't need to actually kill the people himself, since he was, at best, several steps removed from anyone who died from that nuke. I have no idea how that works. That's just what team Arrow said. "If even one of those nukes go off Dharke will be unstoppable etc etc"

Serious guess to excuse stupid comic book storytelling: Darque doesn't have to actually kill the people but he has be responsible for their deaths and in be in a position where he can absorb the power. The guy on the island wasn't shooting everyone personally but he was getting power from their deaths which he caused.

Can I just say how much I love that when they fired that arrow to stop him from stabbing Ruve and caused the explosion, the first thing Anarky did when he recovered his balance was follow through with stabbing her? She probably would have died in the collapse anyway, but I appreciate that he wasn't going to let anything deter him from killing her.

Man they gotta really sell the flashbacks next year to get me to like them. At least with S3 I sorta knew what they were going for. Here it just felt like current day Oliver took a break to go back to Lian Yu for some extreme adventures for a spell (no pun intended) rather than feel like I'm watching Oliver creep closer to becoming the killer bearded hobo at the start of the show. Like I guess similar to "who's in the grave", Oliver's "secrets" on the island didn't have much planning or thought put into it to really be useful. It'd be much more interesting if they had a real grasp of what they were gonna show in the flashbacks so when it came time to showing present Oliver interacting with magic again it wouldn't seem so flimsy and you just fall back on "I don't want to talk about my time on the island."

why is over a third of the penultimate episode about felicity family drama? Who designs a secret underground lair built to survive a nuclear apocalypse that 1 stray arrow causes to blow up? How do 3 hackers hack through screen savers? Will Mr. Robot season 2 have a hacking duel involving electric shocks? How do you recruit families to live in your eeevil secret underground lair? Why do I watch this show?
