Arrow Season 4: 19 WTF Moments From ‘Brotherhood’ Andrew Pollard 21 NOV 2015 http://whatculture.com/tv/arrow-season-4-19-wtf-moments-from-brotherhood-2.php

Here's some SA info from watching the Green Arrow panel video (posted above), plus some other video clips from the Heroes & Villains FanFest on Nov. 21st... -- SA: "confusion, desperation, complete and utter sadness, and unbridled rage". -- On advantage of having long-running show (versus a movie), SA said that "you have the ability to get real-time audience feedback... As an example, we started shooting our first season, and we shot nine episodes by the time the first episode airs. But then you get to gage the reaction of what the audience thinks and you get to cater your stories to what they either enjoy, or what really really pisses them off... Both of which are the same emotion, by the way. The only thing we don't want is indifference. So it really gives us a chance to craft a story. And I think if you have gutsy showrunners - and we do - it gives us a chance, not necessarily mid-season, but in between seasons, to reinvent certain characters. I mean, there's a lot different about Oliver this year than there was last year, and certainly the Oliver that we saw at the beginning of the show. So for me personally, it continues to be a new exercise, and I continue to be able to flex new acting muscles, so to speak, as we go through the show. So that's our advantage." -- When someone asked if he could bring EBR to the next fanfest, the audience cheered. SA joked that she and CH are having a spa weekend and that may or may not be true. -- SA still doesn't know who's in the grave. When he shot the scene, he only knew two things: the person he wanted to kill was a "him", and the person in the grave was someone he cared a lot about. -- A kid asked "When is Damien Darhk gonna die?" and the audience laughed. -- SA said that "there are no plans for the goatee to happen on Arrow". -- SA said that he loves some of the new aspects of Oliver and that Oliver can change, but the show remains the show ("tiger can't change its stripes"). -- SA never watched Smallville and doesn't know much about Justin Hartley's version of Oliver. -- There were "loose plans" for SA to appear on Constantine before that show was cancelled.

The Felicity Smoak Funko POP is now available for pre-order on Amazon.com (with an in-stock date of March 31, 2016); however, the price is $19.99 + $9.00 shipping (sold by America Collectibles)... http://www.amazon.com/Arrow-Felicity-Smoak-Vinyl-Figure/dp/B0189HCMZQ/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1448113275&sr=8-6&keywords=felicity+funko http://www.amazon.com/Arrow-Felicity-Smoak-Vinyl-Figure/dp/B0189HDQKG/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1448113402&sr=8-7&keywords=felicity+funko This price is higher than other places because it's being sold by a third party vendor. The Oliver Queen/GA Funko POPs are much cheaper on Amazon because they're being sold directly by Amazon.com. Hopefully, Amazon will eventually sell the Felicity Funko POP directly at a cheaper price.

Here's the video of the Nov. 19, 2015 panel with Peter Roth and Greg Berlanti at the Paley Center, with moderator Debra Birnbaum (the actual panel starts at around the 55:30 mark, before that, it's just music) - really interesting behind-the-scenes stuff... GB's comment about Felicity comes at around the 1:10:25 mark, when he's talking about casting and showing tapes to Roth (after he erroneously says that Felicity first appeared in the 4th episode of Arrow): "Peter called us up right away and said, 'Who's this girl?', you know, and 'We gotta lock her up'... Everyone has the same kind of visceral response." Peter Roth and Greg Berlanti in Conversation Streamed live on Nov 19, 2015, by The Paley Center for Media Warner Bros.
