[QUOTE=Takuat;47587221]So new showrunner for Arrow! [img]http://i.imgur.com/T89WOS7.png[/img] I wonder what her favourite elements of the show are?

Congratulations, we're going full fanfiction mode now.
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;47589183]So Ollie is hooking up with an OC? Congratulations, we're going full fanfiction mode now.[/QUOTE] They might as well all be OCs. This is an adaptation, anyway.
Either way, fuck that cliffhanger. Btw, only noticed the other day that Ollie is about a quarter of the way away from his trademark beard from the cartoons :v:
[QUOTE=Ryu-Gi;47588870]It's weird watching romance subplots unfold when you already know which characters will end up with who thanks to watching the animated shows and reading the comics. Like I can't feel as invested. It kinda feels like a cheap way to extend the show by constantly dancing around the point for as long as possible to squeeze out more drama. I am glad that they got around to introducing the Canary Cry on The Flash, though, that was great and I can't wait to see it actually in action next week.[/QUOTE] they have never once said that laurel/oliver is set in stone like I said last time, if I was laurel, after everything oliver had caused to my family I would not be dating him

[video=youtube;kZ1NiOEcDcU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZ1NiOEcDcU[/video] [editline]27th April 2015[/editline] [sp]He stands in that very room and looks at his mom when two speedsters are running around her. They better give an explanation to all what's happened that night.[/sp]
One of the scenes in that trailer was from the last episode. Oops (maybe?) haha.
[QUOTE=Tuskin;47611534]One of the scenes in that trailer was from the last episode. Oops (maybe?) haha.[/QUOTE] I'm not sure if any of the scenes are from season finale. Most probably not because we don't have description of the episode yet.
I forgot a word, I meant last weeks episode.
I'm still curious on how the hell did [sp]Al Sah-Him get involved. There is no way Ra's would let him go when he asks "hey can I go help my friend that runs real fast, he needs help dealing with another guy that runs real fast that killed him mother and he pretended to be his friend for about a year? okay thanks, be back before finale". This will happen in Ep 22, Arrow's finale is literally day after but it's probably the same chronologically in the show so I don't quite see how can he be there between Ep 22 and 23.[/sp]
[sp]something must happen in one of the upcoming arrow episodes. Maybe Ra's dies[/sp]
Really major spoilers! ^ [sp]Ras is gonna drug Oliver, then he tells Oliver to kill Diggle and Felicity to fullfill his destiny. He fails to kill Diggle somehow and their relationship gets fucked to the moon, that's what Season 4 is gonna be about I believe.[/sp]
[sp]Not sure this is really gonna be the case. The cast said that in S4 Oliver will be close to the one in comics, which means opposite of drama and seriousness and darkness itself. My personal theory is that current Ra's may die, but the real break is that Oliver will be killed(physically, not just 'hurr hurr Al Sah-Him' but just murdered) and someone(Team Arrow?) will put him in Lazarus Pit, and as Ra's and Merilyn have said that the Pit changes person in soul(no effects on Thea as of yet, but I read that it will be noticed in following episodes) and he may get from the Pit a new, more positive-minded Oliver. But nothing explains what the heck is he doing in Central City.[/sp]

I seriously feel like I'm missing out not watching Flash, but I dont wanna cram the entire season in a week to be up to date

For a guy that can mop the floor with every single criminal a city contains, he sure doesn't smiles much nor takes it in a "haha that was a funny try at beating me :D" kind of way

[sp] OK it's clear to me now, all they have to do is get Iris to marry Eddy and Eobard will never be born. [/sp]
Flash Spoilers [sp]Did I spy an almost reference to the Justice League when Gideon said "Founding member of the..." before being cut off?[/sp]
Thanks Luke, could you guys please all differentiate between what spoilers are The Flash, and which are for Arrow? As it looks like this is both the Flash/Arrow thread, and I haven't caught up with Arrow yet :v: [editline]29th April 2015[/editline] Holy fucking shit that last Flash episode that [sp]spark between Barry and Iris[/sp] no pun intended [editline]29th April 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=LuckyLuke;47623762]Flash Spoilers [sp]Did I spy an almost reference to the Justice League when Gideon said "Founding member of the..." before being cut off?[/sp][/QUOTE] Sure was my good man! Was a little disappointed when he/she/it didn't say it:v: Jay Garrick (Golden age 'The Flash') founded the Justice Society of America while the silver age Barry Allen founded the Justice League
(The Flash) [QUOTE=LuckyLuke;47623762]Flash Spoilers [sp]Did I spy an almost reference to the Justice League when Gideon said "Founding member of the..." before being cut off?[/sp][/QUOTE] [URL="http://media.comicbook.com/uploads1/2015/04/league-133794.jpg"]yes[/URL] [editline]29th April 2015[/editline] The episode was incredible. Finally most things were revealed and now the real battle will begin! [sp]And holy shit finally Iris knows. FINALLY! And the flashback with Wells talking to Barry, really makes you wonder what exactly has happened between them two that Eobard has eternal hatred to Barry, but he has to contain it because he probably needs his SpeedForce connection to let himself return to his own time.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Cypher_09;47624193]Are you collecting the accompanying comics? I'm dying to get them.[/QUOTE] nah I just saw that CW has released this one a couple of days before the episode. This one has been the most intriguing of all, really. oh that reminds me [sp]that Gideon said it was created by Barry, then how did it get into Eobard's suit?[/sp]
RocketRacer, comic spoilers about Eobard's origin: [sp]Eobard is a descendant of Malcolm Thawne. Malcolm Thawne is Barry's twin brother (iknorite!). Charlene Thawne was giving birth and the baby strangled on its own umbilical cord. The doctor was too drunk to save the baby so to cover up for his mistake he swapped the strangled baby with Nora Allen's newborn, and told Nora that "malcolm" was dead and that he was a stillborn. Giving Malcolm to the Thawnes. Malcolm Thawne eventually learns this, after being raised as a con man, and kills the aforementioned doctor. Malcolm thus grows to hate Barry Allen with an intense passion, claiming Barry stole the life he should have had. Therefore becoming a villain 'Cobalt Blue'. Eobard Thawne started out as a MEGA FAN of Barry Allen (in the 25TH CENTURY), and idolized him in every possible way (he surgically made himself look like Barry). Eobard replicated the events that gave Barry his powers, to give himself superspeed. Thawne travels back in time using the treadmill to find that Barry is already dead. He comes across the 'Flash Museum' and sees that he is destined to become the Reverse Flash and die at the hands of his hero. Thawne therefore creates a suit, inverts all the colours, enhances his speed by Tachyons and goes back to fight The Flash. Barry then travels to the future and defeats Thawne by pushing him so fast he pretty much sets him on fire. (Thawne was convinced that his protection would hold up. He was extremely arrogant, and this was his downfall). Thawne is defeated and Barry destroys the Reverse Flash costume. Thawne is even more hatred-driven and goes back in time again, to before Barry Allen was The Flash. And so we have the series airing today.[/sp] I won't post the actual series spoilers unless you want me to. But yeah, I have so many Flash comics, sorry for the wall of text :v: I hope you enjoyed learning/reading about it though, it's interesting as fuck. The Flash > Every superhero ever (except maybe Batman but I won't go into that).

Flash spoilers and Arrow spoilers too, I guess [sp]Guys, when you stop this clip from last episode at 0:44 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAtQC7VG0zM you can see that they name dropped not only Atom and Green Arrow (instead of just Arrow) but also Hawkgirl. Plus Joe was promoted to Police Chief[/sp]
