BkWurm1 July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 The only thing I've heard about the new lair is it will be bigger but does that mean one big space or several smaller stations? It's funny, TPTB talk about how the Foundry was built to fit only Diggle and Oliver and that it got really crowded since but has it ever LOOKED crowded? Link to comment
Chaser July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 She looks like a google intern instead of the potential owner of an international company. I need ponytail, glasses and her in a dress (Felicity is rarely a pants girl). I would even take her in another peek a boob dress. I'm sure she has it in a color we haven't seen yet. I do actually want it brightly coloured to stand out. 1 Link to comment

It's funny, TPTB talk about how the Foundry was built to fit only Diggle and Oliver and that it got really crowded since but has it ever LOOKED crowded? I hope it's big and open with flow, similar to the Star Labs set, so that even the different areas can feel connected by shooting through gaps and windows. The Foundry never looked crowded to me, but I know from listening to the Leverage commentaries that there are eventually only so many ways to shoot a space and it gets complicated with more than three people (Leverage commentaries are A++ recommended, btw). So I can understand they may have been getting disgruntled feedback from directors or crew. The Foundry was great because you rarely saw the outer walls through the shadows, which gave it a wonderful expansive feeling, but it was a small set as far as places to set up cameras and lights, I guess. Of course, they could have just kept my OTA and let Black Canary set up her own space. Ehem. P.s. Nope, it was the one true Sally, because the ledge/hooks are V shaped, while Ray's (pretender!) salmon ladder was flat on the front with only single angle ledges on the backend. Also, it was metal and not wood. Guys, guys, do you think this could be Dig's revenge on Oliver? For his betrayal as Al Sahiem, Oliver will forever lose the affections of Sally?!

Starfish35 July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 Good catch - that's definitely the outfit! I don't necessarily mind her hair down rather than in a ponytail. But glasses and a dress, one of her office dresses? Yes. I would have her with hair down (if they want to make it a little more glamorous), glasses, a professional looking dress, and holding a tablet. I mean, ok. On the second season poster she was wearing skinny jeans and heels - I've never seen Felicity wear anything like that on the show. The third season she's wearing a school girl outfit complete with plaid skirt and Mary Janes, again, not resembling anything we've ever seen Felicity in on the actual show. Now this. I mean, seriously. If we've got to have Laurel in full BC costume, why can't we have Felicity Smoak actually looking like, you know, Felicity Smoak? 3 Link to comment
lemotomato July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 You know, that's what really ruined season 3-- the complete lack of Oliver and Sally scenes! Talk about erasing relationships. 9 Link to comment
SmallScreenDiva July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 (edited) They actually changed her skirt (and shoes) in Photoshop for that S3 poster because it was different from the original photo shoot (see above). I can't find a better photo but I remember one where you can actually see the ribbon in the neckline. They're just recycling, which is pitiful.

EmeraldArcher July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 I agree with all the criticism already levied, but I was very, very happy to see Quentin on the poster. Despite the way Quentin's storyline was mishandled, PB is phenomenal. I was disappointed that he had so little screen time in S3 and hope his inclusion on the poster bodes well for S4. 4 Link to comment
Velocity23 July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 But i dont want more Lance Drama. i want him to get on good foot with Oliver again. Not the rehash of the Lance family melodrama 1 Link to comment
apinknightmare July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 (edited) I don't think Quentin's inclusion in the poster means anything. I like PB and all, not saying he doesn't deserve to be on there, but in order to get all the masks on there, they needed symmetry for the other side of the poster, I guess. They basically killed off/let go of anyone else who could've been on there. Edited July 9, 2015 by apinknightmare 2 Link to comment
Menrva July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 Not to defend the dreadful composition of the poster, but sometimes it's not entirely the graphics department's choice. Sometimes it's Marketing that gets in there and tells the artists, "Here, we pulled a bunch of crap from last season, throw it together and make it look cool. Oh, and put some flames in there too. Fire is cool." Apologies to any marketers out there, but I've had a fair amount of headdesk moments dealing with marketing departments. I just don't get it; even using old material, I still feel like CW could have put forth something more appealing and aesthetically pleasing than what we've gotten so far. Maybe I need to make my own fan art. Just for my own peace of mind. 5 Link to comment

It's funny, TPTB talk about how the Foundry was built to fit only Diggle and Oliver and that it got really crowded since but has it ever LOOKED crowded? It was a giant lair roughly the size of a nightclub, so no I never felt it looked too crowded. Especially with the trinity. But on the other hand during the crossover it was a bit overfilled, in a thank god Laurel and Thea aren't down here yet. And what if Nyssa had stopped by for a chat? Then Ray needed to talk to felicity. Edited July 9, 2015 by Delphi Link to comment

I don't know that I ever thought it looked crowded but I did wonder if it was more difficult to shoot because the BTS/production team couldn't move around as freely with having to film 5 or 6 characters instead of 2 or 3 (if that makes any sense). 1 Link to comment
quarks July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 And for all of my own criticisms of this poster, I'll also note that the marketing/promo departments for both the WB and the CW experienced severe cutbacks this year. I doubt that whoever did this poster had a lot of time to spend on it. 1 Link to comment

I doubt that whoever did this poster had a lot of time to spend on it. That's pretty much how it is these days. Do more with less. Frankly, I'm pretty sure those in charge at the CW don't really care if we think their promotional material sucks. And since the fans are active, creative and passionate and they don't have to pay for that sort of enthusiasm, I don't see anything changing any time soon. 8 Link to comment

They've definitely had issues with camera positioning, and they haven't been able to do the swooping/panning camera moves that they were able to do on the QC set or even the two major Nanda Parbat sets. And even on the QC set they've had some weird blocking situations, so I'd imagine the directors will be thrilled to have a bit more space for movement. 1 Link to comment
apinknightmare July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 Hopefully in the future they'll just slap them in the dark with a background of the city, because I cannot make sense of the bright blue sky and Quentin, Digg and Felicity's exploding legs. Although I suppose they needed the light background so they wouldn't have to spend time contrasting the dark costumes with the dark background. But...FIRE LEGS. 3 Link to comment
Sunshine July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 Someone pointed out elsewhere that all the costumes on display are for characters no longer on the show - Roy/Arsenal, Sara/Canary, Arrow's jailed suit. Since Felicity's glasses are in the Arrow display I wonder if they are giving her new ones or she's strictly going to be a contacts wearer in S4? EBR said she had to fight for both the glasses and pony tail in either S2 or S3. Link to comment
Delphi July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 I think it's more likely that the glasses represent Felicity to the audience, in the same way that the Arrow suit is also iconic so they brought them to display. Those frames are about twenty bucks, which is dirt cheap for frames so I'd imagine they have quite a few pairs lying around for when they get broken during stunts or what have you so they just grabbed a pair from the costumers to bring along. 4 Link to comment

Belinea July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 Maybe after the last time they displayed the costumes and basically got chewed out by everyone for not having enough women on the panel, they thought that people weren't mad because of the lack of women on that particular panel but mad because there was no Felicity and therefore not considered a hero. In order to avoid that, they put her glasses there along with all the other costumes they might not need anymore. That way she is represented and considered an equal among the costumed heroes. They probably have quite a few of those glasses and therefore they can easily have them there and EBR can just get another pair. Or maybe Felicity will change her glasses or her look. As a goth she did not wear glasses either if I remember correctly. Link to comment
dtissagirl July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 But you can't service Felicity fans at the place where fans gather to celebrate their fannishness BECAUSE COMICS. Felicity fans are not real fans! Comics! Comics! Must follow the comics! 18 Link to comment
