All she knows is that David and Emily are working today. Plus David has a panel tomorrow so he has to be there, and it's definitely possible him and Emily will go to SDCC together. What does this mean for the Nerd HQ panel? Not really sure. Hopefully they make it. But even moreso, I hope we're getting Delicity scenes if they're the two who are left filming :) Ah I didn't know she was making assumptions, my mistake. I saw it on my timeline and thought I would share. They did have EBR miss SDCC a previous year, and it would not surprise me if they pushed the newbies this year. Hopefully I'm wrong, and EBR will be at the panel. Link to comment

She was filming in S3 that's why she missed the Friday Arrow Panel, KC was also filming that day. If we want to get into the nitty gritty, KC was filming the Friday of SDCC 2013 and, EBR was sent down along with SA to do Friday media interviews (TV Line, ComicBook Resources). Link to comment
looptab July 21, 2016 Share July 21, 2016 (edited) Ugh, when Stephen mentioned they were having a short week this week, I thought they were working in order to get everyone at SDCC by today. Anyway, what's usually in schedule on Thursday? I get that he has Conan, but the others? Didn't they usually go there on Friday? Edited July 21, 2016 by looptab Link to comment
Chaser July 21, 2016 Share July 21, 2016 I imagine since they weren't filming so they just hitched a ride on the plane with the other CW actors. Link to comment

Morrigan2575 July 21, 2016 Share July 21, 2016 (edited) I flew from NJ to AZ on pretty much that exact plane back in April. Best flight ever, so relaxing. I laid out on the couch and watched Ted. The Bathroom is a thing of beauty Edited July 21, 2016 by Morrigan2575 2 Link to comment

Can't wait for EBR's insights into S5--she's generally pretty articulate during interviews and is refreshingly direct about her character. 10 Link to comment

foreverevolving July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 Didn't take them long to upload the interview from Conan. Also, a bit pissed cause literally half the interview the camera only focused on Conan, Grant and Melissa. Most questions were for Grant, with a couple thrown in for Melissa and like one or two directed at Stephen and even then they were questions he asked G & M too. 2 Link to comment
Guest July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 Was SA always meant to be on Conan? Because initially they only announced MB and GG. Wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't actually supposed to be there, hence less questions? IDK. Link to comment
Morrigan2575 July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 No, he wasn't always meant to be on Conan. Arrow and SA really are the Ugly Red Headed Step Children of the CW/DC/WB 1 Link to comment
foreverevolving July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 (edited) I think he wasn't, I guess they saw fan reaction and decided to invite him to the party after-all. but still, a good interviewer (which I believe conan is to a degree) should be able to add or replace some of the questions to fit all of them.. maybe i'm being cynic but, this feels like a deliberate snub. in the sense of: we didn't want your here, we're gonna tolerate your presence but don't expect much. Seriously look at Stephen body language.. very defensive, very uncomfortable... his body language is screaming that he can sense that he is unwelcomed. :-/ Edited July 22, 2016 by foreverevolving Link to comment
Chaser July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 Fairly positive Conan couldn't care less about BTS CW working. I don't think he was trying to snub anyone. He was giving the attention to the parties the network wanted to promote, he was doing his job. Personally, I just love that fan reaction was so big it got SA/Arrow on the show. 18 Link to comment

Belinea July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 After all the (imo) downplaying, I find it bemusing that they won the award and he showed up to the event to accept it. And can I just say that Grant has such a cute smile. 1 Link to comment
EmeraldArcher July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 I enjoyed the interview quite a bit. I didn't get the sense that SA was being snubbed at all. But, I haven't been following the BTS stuff as closely as others, so I didn't have any expectations. I loved SA's response about auditioning for Arrow and stubbornness being OQ's super power! This little spin on how he got the part (by refusing to leave) was pretty fun. And, wow, is GG ever a cutie. He seemed the most nervous during the interview, and I thought it was adorable how he pointed out that he wouldn't wear a t-shirt beside SA because of SA's impressive physique. It seems like GG likes SA and might even consider him a mentor and friend, so I wonder how he feels about having the far more popular show. GG just comes across as very humble and sweet. I've not seen an interview with MB before, but I love her unrestrained laughter. 8 Link to comment
bijoux July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 (edited) To me it looked like SA checked out when the questions weren't directed straight at him. Oh, you're asking them? I'm just gonna catch a few zzzzs then. Whoever came up with the idea of him accepting the award with a fan is a genius. Great move. regarding the award, EBR also retweeted that first one.

catrox14 July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 I don't care if SA is just smiling and doing his part but if he is doing a good job. But I think he's genuinely excited about the Fandom Award. Either way, he IS making an effort. I too loved his story about his audition and that Oliver is stubborn. I got a kick out of that. 10 Link to comment

I was one of the people saying that he shouldn't have to do photoshoots because he didn't like them and that he should promote the show in the manner that he wants to, so I don't know where this is coming from. Personally, I think his enthusiasm is genuine. Stephen has shown that he's super competitive and likes to win. He promoted the contest on FB and Twitter, fans won it for him, and now he's showing his appreciation. Even if he's just playing the part, I appreciate that he's making an effort. I was one of the people that voted in the contest, without any expectations except just to prove we could win it, so I'd really like to be able enjoy this nice bonus thing that happened. Please. 8 Link to comment
kismet July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 (edited) I thought the Conan interview was pretty balanced. SA only fell out of frame for a little bit when they were focusing on MB, so for me that was ok because it was probably a camera issue. He asked them each questions. I wasn't a huge fan of some of SAs answers only because I don't think they had the same charm/appeal as they could have had. I wasn't a fan of the "stubborn" answer because it was a perfect opportunity for him to say how OQ doesn't need a superpower to be a superhero. Also being stubborn is SA's superpower, not OQs. I personally think the GG question about running was more to give Conan an opportunity to make a physical gag. It was more about him than GG. I did like the smolder bits. Having a trio interview was always going to be a little awkward, especially when its 2 of the cutest cotton candy like actors and a gruffy SA. I do like the SA seems to be embracing the fandom in a more positive way again. I do think its genuine. I do think even if it is not, he needs to play the part. Comic-Con and the surrounding events are about the fans, so its the time to check your attitude at the door, which I think he has. Edited July 22, 2016 by kismet 3 Link to comment
Soulfire July 22, 2016 Share July 22, 2016 Do I think SA was reluctant to embrace it all, the ship stuff, the whole thing? Absolutely. But he seemed genuinely happy and like he was having a good time last night. He's terrible at faking it when he isn't happy about something - this year's Upfronts and the 2014 IGN interview with KC come to mind - but last night he genuinely seemed to be enjoying himself. I for one am going to enjoy that positivity, which I believe was genuine from SA's side, because let's face it, there hasn't been much on this board lately. 19 Link to comment

It's sort of a design rule that you should position pictures of people who aren't looking straight ahead in a way that makes them look into the frame, not out of it. Melissa and Grant are placed like this, heads turned into the image. The dude looking straight forward goes in the middle because the composition works better like that. 5 Link to comment

We are allowed to debate without being modded. That's part of the point of the board. So I'm curious as to what positivity you were seeing from the show until this week. SA was being a jerk on social media Spoiler DR just started filming and so likely has no new scenes in the sizzle reel, Olicity are broken up STILL and just good friends, there are newbies galore, and Laurel Lance is so important she has her own statue. 2 Link to comment
