Season 8 Live Posting Thread

[Trisha]

Good they found William. Now forget about all the plot stuff and get to the character stuff please.

[insomniadreams88]

Okay, let's wrap this up ASAP. William's been kidnapped enough times that we can just FF through everything that comes next until he's been saved and everyone's back in the bunker.

Rory was the best of the newbies, I'm sad we didn't get to keep him over the others. 

[shantown]

This sure is a lot of "regular episode plot" for a SERIES finale

Dumb to the bitter end!

[Angel12d]

The pacing of this episode is just non-existent. And the media said this was good? What, LOL.

[tennisgurl]

Blah blah blah plot plot can we get to the finale stuff?! Its the last episode, not season 4 episode 7 or something!

[statsgirl]

Are  Oliver's memories supposed to come with the hood?

I wish they would stop with the strobe lights, they're giving me a headache.

[quarks]

Oh, auugh, this roof again.

I mean, I should feel nostalgic, but I'm just not. 

[Primal Slayer]

Mis looks like she has a slightly different mask from her 2040 one.

If so I hope it’s only mission tactics and not any of the sexytimes. 

[calliope1975]

We're 1/2 way done. This is as terrible as expected. They could have cut all of this.

AKA please keep sending me screeners, inviting me to screenings and giving me access!

[lemotomato]

I get that they're trying to fit in as many characters as possible and tie up loose ends, but it feels like Oliver is an afterthought so far.

[statsgirl]

And a final arrow to the moon and zipline.

Maybe when they finally stop using it? 

[JJ928]

Does the hood come built in with Oliver's memories, because they're making it seem like she's remembering shit she should have no clue about.

“Yeah, I’m his daughter from the future, so you’ll have to tell me. Does PowerPoint exist in 2020?”

[Primal Slayer]

The usual "villain from Olivers past" scenario...wow

[quarks]

I also should be getting nostalgic about getting to see props from another show in Arrow yet again, but again, not.

But...but they're showing us flashbacks and moments of Oliver's past that he ended up changing! That should be enough Oliver for us...right? Right? #loveletter

[janeta]

Dude's gonna run out of arrows...

Funny thing is they actually manged to abandon a lot of that in S8 but *now* of all times they bring it back,

[apinknightmare]

The last arrow to the moon I'll ever have the privilege to witness! RIP, my beautiful fave. 😭

[calliope1975]

This must be the super cool brutal fight scene. I'd like it more if it had a point. If this is what we're getting it should have been a clip show. 

[Primal Slayer]

Nice little blur of the stunt double

[shantown]

I'm so mad at how dumb this all is.

[scarynikki12]

The people working on this show must really love Bamboozle because no way is this one of the best fights they’ve done. Maybe under a different director but not him. 

[quarks]

Ok, that was a pretty cool arrow out of danger and zip zip zip lining away bit.

[Primal Slayer]

Did Oliver just jump to the moon again?

[tennisgurl]

So this is just another rando who Oliver pissed off? Didn't we already do this with Chase? But it was a whole season, and really good?

[Angel12d]

Shaky-cam doing his worst until the very end! 😂

[Primal Slayer]

Just got beat down by a group of guys, zero scratches on him.

He did and it was glorious 

[lemotomato]

I have to stop watching this fight sequence because the camera is making me motion sick.

[Lady Calypso]

Oh...for a moment, I thought that was Oliver somehow coming back from the dead to save his son.

You got me for a moment, show.

[quarks]

JOHN BYRNE YOU HAVE FAILED THIS CITY and also quite a lot of comic books but let's not get sidetracked

[tennisgurl]

"And all I was doing was minding my own business and dealing in human trafficking!" 

[scarynikki12]

Sara/Felicity friendship time. 

[Lantern7]

“Shit, my baby stepsister is more kickass than me.”

[Lady Calypso]

Mia's William has to be going through a mindfuck with having memories of his sister when he was thirteen/fourteen. 

 

[calliope1975]

This criminal is dumb. Like I'm embarrassed for him. 

[quarks]

I am kinda worried about what's going to happen to our favorite two journalists, to be honest.

And the owner of the Star City window depot 

[tennisgurl]

It does feel weird hearing people say nice things about Oliver. Normally he is everyones favorite whipping boy. 

[Primal Slayer]

So far this a great wrap up for Mia but not really anyone else.

[Lantern7]

Awwwwwwww.

There have been worse finales. Seinfeld. Quantum Leap. Gargoyles: The Goliath Chronicles. 

[Angel12d]

We don't even get a Felicity/William reunion? 

This is just terrible, I can't. 

[insomniadreams88]

How are we more than halfway through the series finale and this is what we've gotten so far?
