Flashpoint is going to make this season even more of a dumpster fire than it already is and it's fantastic. It's even better if Flashpoint Ollie and Laurel are a happy couple and Laurel's dead again after it's undone. I would laugh and laugh and laugh.

Hey, guys? Um, I think Flashpoint may have affected more than we thought. I've been looking through the posts in this thread, and apparently I quit watching this season? I definitely remember watching the episodes so far. Barry might have hosed up worse than we thought  Seriously though confirmed they're bringing Laurel back in some form, I'm back on board

Ouhei posted:Speaking of Felicity, the queen of "no secrets, ever" is certainly doing a band up job of keeping her own. She has a boyfriend that either lives in Oliver's old loft or at least has a key, that from what I can gather from the episodes, no one knows about. Secret boyfriend doesn't know what she does with her spare time (is it even spare time at this point?). She's hiding some sort of illness/pregnancy/something from Oliver/everyone based on the weird stairs moment at the end of the episode. Felicity Smoak, huge hypocrite? Why I never!

My vote is that Felicity's chip is failing and she'll eventually be back in the wheelchair. Anyway that was neat! Glad I gave the show another chance, though if the pattern holds I should check out after the midpoint. Also, I was way more amused by THEA QUEEN, ACTION MAYORAL ADVISOR hopping around the rooftops in plain clothes than I should've been.

STAC Goat posted:I didn't love Curtis' Terrific look but I assume its still a work in progress. He's still gotta work in those T-Spheres from last season/the comics. The actor will obviously never look exactly like the comic character and I have to get past that, but I like the TV and comic characters enough to do it. What is there left to do on his costume? It's literally the same as the comics, right down to FAIR PLAY on the sleeves.

Guy Goodbody posted:According to Wikipedia, the reason he doesn't get hurt is the rags are full of the souls of evil people, and the souls take damage instead of him. Holy poo poo.  I'd like to see him explain that to Oliver. "I'm kind of invincible." "Oh wow, that's great!" "It's because the souls of the damned are in eternal torture inside my cloak because of my actions." "...not seeing the problem?"

Spergatory posted:Saw a gif of Ragman and was like "...huh." So I came here to see what the general opinion RE: show is. Because one thing I remember from last season was that before Laurelgate and the disastrophe that was the Olicity breakup, Arrow was crazy fun and seemed to be having the time of its life for awhile. Is it back in that place? I came back for this season because I've heard rumblings Barry's Flashpoint "fix" will bring Laurel back to life somehow. I'm glad I gave it another shot, Ollie's a good balance between grimdark Hood and nice guy Green Arrow right now. There's also been 100000% less drawn out drama, I mean we just went through the whole "whoops nuked a city" arc with Ragman and Felicity in two episodes, and the basic plot was I forgive you but don't know if I can work with you But we really need you meh I'll get over it thenKeep in mind that, for the last two seasons, the show starts really strong and then falls apart into stupid drama after the mid-season break. My advice would be to watch until then and be wary after.

ShakeZula posted:I still don't understand how people think that's going to go down. Any timeline changes that would have resulted from Flashpoint are already in effect (like Diggle's child switching genders), and Laurel is still so incredibly dead that it's been the driving force of much of the season for Oliver. And even if Barry goes back in time again (despite the writers of his show essentially turning to the camera and apologizing for how convoluted everything had gotten because of time travel), any changes that result would not seem like changes to anyone on Arrow, just to Barry. So you wouldn't get Laurel's dramatic return and the fallout of that with Oliver and the new team, you'd get everything so far this season more or less erased and reset back to how it was at the end of last season, and done in such a way that it would only be acknowledged on Arrow in the "Previously On..." segment. Supergirl's going to swing at Doomsday or something, miss, and accidentally punch the barrier between dimensions hard enough to erase the writers' incredibly stupid decision

What's going to be hilarious is when Oliver kills Prometheus proclaiming I'M NOT LETTING WHAT HAPPENED TO LAUREL HAPPEN AGAIN, takes the helmet off the corpse, and it's Laurel. Like, not even a line of dialogue or more than two seconds of on-screen face time. The last episode of the season is dealing with how it happened. C'mon, writers, you can do this. If you're gonna troll, you gotta come correct.
