tangerine95 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 Yeah...they do. It happens all over which is fine, but if you're still bringing it up 4 seasons later on a show that has deviated from the comic books from the very first pilot episode and then continued to do so for 3 solid seasons, then I feel my annoyance is justified. Its really time to let it go already. It seems like they're not even watching the show so it doesn't matter to them that Oliver in the show would never wear a goatee,a sleeveless suit,be funny and sarcastic in the way they want of ever call Laurel pretty bird. This is the part that makes me point and laugh at the comic book canon-thumpers a lot. Don't they realize the person at DC responsible for approving EVERYTHING they use from the comics is in the Flash writers room? I've seen posts like DC must be so pissed at what they're doing.Like DC doesn't approve every single thing on DC shows and movies. 1 Link to comment

Chaser July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 (edited) I don't respect any 'comic fan' that cries canon with Oliver/Felicity but thinks that Laurel is an acceptable Black Canary. No credibility there.

lemotomato July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 Just because Oliver and Thea aren't living together, doesn't mean they're not going to spend time together, especially now that they're both vigilantes (I'm assuming) 5 Link to comment

BkWurm1 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I guess the alternative is to have Oliver and Felicity move in with Thea. Yeah, that's probably a little too much togetherness. About this surprise or twist we find out about Felicity in the first episode, I wouldn't be surprised if she's been helping Diggle and Co behind Oliver's back. 7 Link to comment

tarotx July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 (edited) But comics people saying respect the source lost me at how they treated/treat Sara. She is a perfect respecting the source Black Canary with everything needed except for the Dinah name. That's how I know a huge huge chunk of these people are Laurel fans. I'm ok with Laurel fans wanting things for their girl but be honest. Edited July 11, 2015 by tarotx 9 Link to comment
Chaser July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I don't think all the questions where from GATV. But I do think the hero question to Emily and the fan spilt on Olicity was. 2 Link to comment
Happy Harpy July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 No, it's just speculation at this point. I think it's a guy who went Not Masked! on EBR, but a woman who asked about Felicity choosing Oliver over Diggle (paraphrasing). Link to comment
wonderwall July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I think the GATV guy has been the only one who's been publicly salty about Felicity and Olicity this season so it's not really a far off leap to speculate that it's him. Plus he has access as well... I'm more certain that the questions to EBR is from him more than I am about the comic canon one though. Link to comment
Velocity23 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I think other journalists were involved in the blastr periscope also. It just doesnt make sense to ask about the split in the fandom and then tweet squeal with the hashtag Olicity. Link to comment

AnyoneButYou July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 (edited) I think Blastr recorded it, but the person that asked those questions was sitting at the other end of the table, so it could've been GATV.

Blastr and GATV could have been in the same group of press going around asking questions. I think that's how they do it.Pretty much. Except the actors move tables while the press is stationary.

calliope1975 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 (edited) Do we know for sure this interviewer was Craig from GATV? My question as well. Before I rag on Craig, I'd like to make sure I throw my shade at the right source. It wouldn't surprise me at all, though, because he's a dick irl - well, to be fair, my last contact with him was several years ago. Perhaps he's changed - anything's possible. Apparently, his online persona hasn't though. One of my favorite heroes in Cap 2: Winter Soldier was the tech guy who refused to launch the helicarriers. He was as much a hero to me as Black Widow and Falcon. It's insulting to insinuate that Felicity isn't a hero because she's not physically engaging with bad guys. And then there's the fact that she has done that on more than one occasion. I have more feelings about this then I thought. To be more positive, wonder what's going to be revealed by SA at 8ish on Facebook, tonight? Edited July 11, 2015 by calliope1975 10 Link to comment
BkWurm1 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 From the interviews they are giving about the future of Olicity I'm hearing some spin. In some it sounds like full steam ahead everything is A OK and then in this one it really sounds like they are working hard to make it sound like it's in question. I get the impression that there is a fear that if they don't make the relationship a bit up in the air, then people won't find it interesting. Link to comment
lemotomato July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 If it is the GATV guy, I think it's sad that someone who makes a living in front of a computer thinks doesn't consider a tech-oriented character capable of heroics unless she wears a costume and fights physically. 5 Link to comment

apinknightmare July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 From comments Wendy Mericle made on the IGN interview, it seems like the twist with Felicity might be her figuring out how to bring Ray back from the "dead." She said Felicity has a hand in bringing Ray "back to the show." Hopefully the twist isn't about freaking Ray, but I'm guessing it will be. Wendy also said that they're trying to figure out where to fit Felicity's dad into the scope of things, and that now that they have DD and some other villains coming in (that will be announced tonight), they're trying to figure out how to work dad in, so it sounds like it's not DD, thank god. 7 Link to comment
kismet July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 Yeah, she did say that if he comes in, it might not be until the end of the season. Could be she's trying to throw a curveball? Not sure if she's throwing curveball or not. But if he does not come into play until the end perhaps they can be setting up s5 & Bratva. Honestly, I can easily see Donna with a mobster more so than a HIVE leader. But perhaps its just a curveball. I'm still craving a finale cliffhanger so I might just be wishful thinking. 2 Link to comment
Happy Harpy July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 (edited) I'm ok with Laurel fans wanting things for their girl but be honest. I agree. They want the best for their favorite, I understand that. I also understand the comic book purists, in a way. I'm a huge A.Christie fan and the latest "adaptation" of her works (the later seasons especially) has me foaming at the mouth, LOL. Difference: it was supposed to be rather faithful, so I was disappointed. With Arrow, the audience was warned that it was a "realistic" reinvention from the start -I remember seeing comic fans declaring they wouldn't watch because there would be no superpowers and so- and it was obvious from the pilot that the characters wouldn't be the same. I get 100% those who boycott the show because they don't like the principle behind it, and would prefer something corresponding to their favorite canon. OTOH, I have trouble to get people wanting pianos to be guitars. Is the white board picture published on the official site for the show? If so, I'm certain it is because KC wasn't at the interview in question. If not, it's so not cool. Unless...with her LoT comment, maybe they anticipated and Laurel is eventually moving to the spinoff? *dreams* Edited July 11, 2015 by Happy Harpy 2 Link to comment

Chaser July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I won't lie. I'm going to be so disappointed if Felicity's father gets pushed back. I do appreciate David and Stephen bringing up Felicity's Dad. I understand why Emily is keeping quiet on the storyline given the history, but it's nice to see. I am a little concerned about David though. He seemed confident in Felicity's Dad, but this makes me question what he has said in the past. Link to comment
Carrie Ann July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I don't think we know yet what the origin of that whiteboard was, but I don't think anyone associated with the show was involved with it, because they would know better than to call it "The Arrow." So it's kind of crappy for KC (assuming she was even present for whatever that was), but it's not like her own show or fellow cast/crew forgetting about her, and I'm sure when the show's Twitter person retweeted it, he/she didn't check for every name beforehand.

What will be the best way to catch that? Link to comment
