WindofChange

A man has to look his best when he's giving the keys to his place to the love of his life

I really love that all the TV news sites are posting that same picture of Oliver/Felicity kissing. King and Queen of DCTV don't even have to try to dominate. My babies, off to destroy bad guys while being cute AF at home :')

I personally like that Oliver/Felicity know that they aren't perfect or put themselves on a pedestal. They simply mind their own business and if there's an issue they fix it (usually takes time but they do). They both work hard to maintain their relationship and I like how it takes more than 1 episode to fix their issues.

LOL :p

HELLO REPORTER - OLIVER BEING THE GREEN ARROW IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST STORIES IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN STARLING HOW ABOUT YOU STAY PUT?!

I think they knew episode 1 was going to be a dud because of what it was focused on and sent episode 2 instead. It does seem more focused on OTA from what one of the journos said so hopefully it' sgood!

To be fair this will be changing very soon because Iris/Felicity/Alex will be a part of every crossover episode this year.

Yay I'm finally excited for this episode!

Technically she was a part of the comics... But lol of course they bring her in now almost 15 years after her last appearance

IDK I think it's cute she considered them engaged. She probably knew he was going to propose and she knew she was going to say yes. It shows how committed she was and how much she loved Eddie so that was sweet.

From the pictures we've seen on IG I don't believe that's her place.

It's just a new design. It's ugly and doesn't fit well (too big).

I went ahead and created a brief outline of how I think the comics have harmed the show more than helped it (i'm bored): Intro Point 1: Writers force characters into positions that aren't suited for the show in the way it was designed - Curtis - The insistence of having a BC - Thea becoming Speedy and how it made her "one of the many" - Introduction of newbies - Leads to lazy writing and characters being given their mantles instead of earning it Point 2: Writers force comic plot devices into the show where it doesn't belong - Metas (Eg. Canary Cry) - T-Spheres - Lazarus Pit (deus ex machina)/Multiple earths Point 3: Creates expectations from the audience that doesn't necessarily work on screen - GA/BC romance - Oliver becoming more like "Ollie" - Oliver having a son (Connor Hawke/William) - Action! Action! Action! Counterpoint: Without the comics there wouldn't be a show - Valid point because a lot of the characters are from the comics - Some popular comic elements does have a way of exciting the audience (eg. Ra's, Deathstroke) - However, comic canon is mean to be a faint guideline not something that restricts creativity or forces the show into something it's not equipped to handle. - A lot more of the audience appreciates originality over the fulfillment of comic canon (if well done). Conclusion

Because comics... I could write an essay on how the comics harmed this show more than helped it

I took it as a good thing. It means the kid won't blab about who his father is. But it's now a moot point anyways because Oliver has just been outed lol

With how many people slammed Felicity for walking away from Oliver in season 4, I really appreciated reading this:

I think he calls William "Kiddo"? I don't recall him calling him Buddy but I may be mistaken.

Why doesn't Iris have Barry's jacket? My theory: Felicity: *shivers* Oliver: "omg sweetheart are you cold? here take my jacket" Iris: Barry, I'm cold Barry: Damn, Iris I can't control the weather *Points for who gets this reference*

From Aisha's insta. FELICITY IS WEARING OLIVER'S COAT OH MY GOD

YAS Queen!!!! You blow that police station up!

Technically she didn't kill them, her goons did. THERE'S STILL SOME GOOD LEFT IN HER!

This was so horribly acted by KC that I'm just laughing so hard right now LMAO

I don't really get why people expect Samantha to act rationally here. Felicity similarly didn't act rationally when her first thought was for Ray to save Oliver instead of the city when she found out he was in grave danger. It's human to think of your loved one first.

In the video below it looks like Iris and Felicity will be outside directing people as they run out. I just assumed that they're out of the church first if they haven't walked down the aisle yet. I also assumed that the reason why Felicity hasn't walked down the aisle yet and there are no other bridesmaids around directing people - that Felicity is the last one to walk down the aisle (before Iris) which means she's the MoH.

Based on how that scene is - it doesn't even seem like Felicity or Iris will walk down the aisle. And based on how Felicity is the last person to walk down the aisle before Iris, she's likely going to be the maid of honor.
