Hollismason posted:They could end it and restart as Green Arrow and the Outsiders. It'd be really good. Season 5 is suppose to be the "last". LoT is absolutely great and fun but it's not high art in the slightest. Then again, I don't know why people keep watching it expecting that, so.

Ragman is great and they should keep him on permanently, or give him his own show, or give him to legends or something. He deserves it.

I'm glad it's her though, because she's easily the weakest link now so it should mean she isn't sticking around.

So is Prometheus Sportsmaster, or would that get too confusing with Wild Dog and Casey Jones already being on the show?

So they might be pulling a bait and switch with the Vigilante thing because this week's episode had a separate credit for "voice of Vigilante."

There's already a DC supervillain named Prometheus who is basically an evil Batman who fights great and schemes elaborate ways to take down heroes. So I assume Prometheus is just Prometheus and this is more of Arrow stealing pretty heavily from Batman.

Which I assume means the name will have some significance, otherwise why? Comic Prometheus is an absurd character with a skill downloading helmet that runs off CDs who lives in not the phantom zone.

Well, I assumed it was an adjusted Prometheus. Comic one isnt a Batman villain either but a JLA one but I was assuming they just grounded him to make a more appropriate version of "villain who wants to take down heroes and comes up with elaborate ways to". But if they've officially shot that down then I dunno. I'm still betting on Felicity's boyfriend who gets way too much mention for such a barely there character.

Guggenheim said he's not based on any comic character at all. Of course that's what Rocksteady said about the Arkham Knight. Now that it looks like Felicity's boyfriend isn't there to be a source of drama, he's the likely candidate. Felicity working with the Hood and Arrows has been known by a lot of people, so him getting together with her as part of his plan makes sense.

My biggest gripe with the CW Multiverse is actually Diggs jr. It was just a throwaway joke in the Flash that because of Flashpoint a few details may have changed, mostly minor stuff. Diggle having a son instead of a daughter was just to show that these changes also affected the star city team. Sara Diggle was a big plot influence, on both her parents' actions and choices, and was even named after Sara Lance. It feels weird to have her just never existing and instead having a son that probably was a big influence on the plot in some other ways we will never know, unless everything just happened the exact same way, only with a boy instead of a girl.

Yeah, it's been a throwaway thing done for the sake of the sole Arrow nod at Flashpoint but it's not as if Sara Diggle was in any shape or form a character. I'm sure John and Lyla loved their son just as much and had the same feelings when he was threatened as their daughter and Sara Lance came back from the dead anyway so the emotion of naming their kid to honor her is kinda moot. I mean, it's kind of dark that Sara Diggle disappeared from existence and if you told John and Lyla they might feel weird about losing a daughter they never knew to gain the son they love. But there'd be no reason or person around Arrow to bring up that odd philosophical question.

Barry telling them during the crossover and apologising could potentially make for quite a powerful scene, but yeah, it would also be pretty pointless and even selfish. Ignorance is bliss, and all.

Honestly, I imagine there was some casting thing like the actress for Sara was unavailable or something so Flashpoint was a convenient way to writer her off and replace her.

It was just a way to show Flashpoint affecting the Arrow characters without it actually affecting the Arrow show. Because it would have been kind of dumb for Flashpoint to NOT affect anything on Arrow, but it would have been super confusing for Arrow fans who don't watch Flash to make it something really meaningful to the show like someone coming back to life or having powers or something. So it manages to tick both boxes. It means something huge to the characters and sells the weight of it but means nothing really to the actual making or viewing of the show and can be explained off in with one line about "Flash, timey wimey". Although the episode description for the Arrow episode of the crossover seems to hint that we may get a delayed Flashpoint episode, so that could address this more or affect more changes.

Maybe, but the description also had something about Barry revealing an upsetting confession, which you assume would be Flashpoint/Diggle's kid. But I'd be interested in seeing why an invading alien force would deem distracting The Green Arrow as key to its success.
