Guest September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 So it sounds very much like Ronnie will die and that will put Caitlin on her path to Killer Frost. HOW ORIGINAL. MUCH SURPRISE. I still don't know whether that's game changing for Arrow though, and I'm assuming SA's picture was related to Arrow. Unless he was being a sneaky sneakster and tricking all of us. Link to comment

kismet September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 I'm still rooting for Ray's funeral. Although Ronnie is probably dead, but if that is the case - why is there nobody else from the Flash at the funeral? Perhaps this scene is just for Arrow post funeral, but there still would be others filming at Ronnie's funeral. IDK, frankly, I think the funeral is completely inconsequential to the ARROW story. So I'm just gonna file this pic as SA playing sneaky & promoting the whole game changing of the DCTV universe and not ARROW. And honestly, I'm not that invested in what happens outside of ARROW. I'll watch the shows, but don't care to really pick apart spoilers or minutiae of pics. Link to comment

apinknightmare September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 Not sure how reliable this is, but one of the Vancouver pap guys tweeted it was an Arrow shoot, not a crossover ep. Don't know if he has access to filming schedules or what, or if he's just guessing (although he said that he wasn't guessing). Link to comment

statsgirl September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 If there are Andy Diggle scenes, I want them to be in flashbacks where Oliver meets him and doesn't know the connection to John. Otherwise if he's alive now, it makes the whole "John Diggle is in love with his sister-in-law Carly" plot of s1 even more squicky. I'm still rooting for Ray's funeral. Although Ronnie is probably dead, but if that is the case - why is there nobody else from the Flash at the funeral? Perhaps this scene is just for Arrow post funeral, but there still would be others filming at Ronnie's funeral. I thin there is something funny about the timing of Ray's disappearance i.e. it wasn't before Oliver and Felicity left town, but hasn't Starling already been renamed to Star City? That would mean that Ray has been dead long enough for the slow wheels of bureaucracy to rename the city. So it sounds very much like Ronnie will die and that will put Caitlin on her path to Killer Frost. HOW ORIGINAL. MUCH SURPRISE. I hope not. It's so done to death although fridging a male character would at least be a little different. But it would also mean that they would need to replace Caitlin on Barry's team (second team member to turn evil!) and I like the character. Maybe the game-changer part has something to do with their secret and not-secret identities? I can hope. Link to comment

I can hope. Maybe its a combination memorial service/dedication/naming ceremony... We saw the sign, but bureaucracy runs slow & official ceremonies take awhile to happen - so maybe the timing is off for that reason. If its about Ray then it makes sense to be in these episodes that are closer to LoT episodes. But if its about Ronnie, where is the rest of the cast? I don't think they are going to reveal their secret identities to the world this early in the season. I just don't think they're changing that much of the game so soon in both of the shows run.

But these show runners are like the most predictable writers ever lately. There was a similar pattern in The Flash s1 as was on Arrow, so I can see them following the same format. They don't really see the problem with killing off characters to start the journey of another. It's like the lowest form of creative storytelling ever.

But I do think he is a good addition to the supporting network of characters on LoT. I don't seem him being a major arc player, but I do like that the major arc characters will have resources & allies to turn to. And I always have a soft spot for Academia & professors making their way onto shows, esp. when there is mythology being built. Edited September 24, 2015 by kismet Link to comment

I'm not against crossovers of spinoffs but I don't like the way they handle them. I feel like all we're doing is spending time setting up another show rather than time better spent on the characters we already have. I thought the way they introduced Barry to the audience was perfect and I enjoyed the Flarrow crossovers last year but this build up to LoT seems excessive, I agree completely. Link to comment
Sakura12 September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 Flash as a comic character is more popular than Green Arrow, so they didn't really need Arrow to spin off the Flash. Did people like getting to see Barry before watching his show, probably. But I think the Flash could've stood on it's own. LoT needs both Arrow and Flash to start them off because they are made up of secondary characters and new characters that are not as well known. Link to comment
NumberCruncher September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 I agree with you, calliope1975. TIIC saw how successful the first crossover was and now they've gone into overdrive. Unlike you though, I'm already over the whole crossover concept. I liked the first one, but I hate that they're now using them as springboards for the shiny new toys. I thought we are already getting 7 Arrow episodes devoted for helping launch LOT (which IDGAF about), but now the crossover too? Grrrrr. 6 Link to comment
Primal Slayer September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 (edited) At this point i feel like Arrow won't be starting up until episode 9 when the cross over/Lot business will be done and over.

tarotx September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 (edited) I just wanted the Cross over to be about Sara (and I guess Ray) being recruited by Rip. And then the Arrow characters dealing with the knowledge of what's happening to Sara (and Ray). I don't need history on the Hawks here. Imo Sara is a Arrow character. She was created for Arrow and not the spin off even if her resurrection is for Legends. Fleshing out what's happening with her and sending her off I feel is important for Sara, Lance and Laurel. 3 Arrow characters. Oliver is the main character and I want his story to be front and center. A crossover dealing with new LOT characters just seems annoying. Edited September 24, 2015 by tarotx 3 Link to comment
Sakura12 September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 I think the full plate crossover is just so LoT can start off running without having to do character intros. The first week of filming according to Caity was full of fighting and stunts. 2 Link to comment
tangerine95 September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 It's annoying how many characters for LoT are going to be appearing on Arrow.I hope they're not dumping it all there while the flash barely does any setting up.I don't understand why some of then have to even be set up at all.I get it for Sara and Ray but others can easily be introduced on LoT. 3 Link to comment
SonofaBiscuit September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 The fact that they're using Arrow to set up LoT (a show that I'm definitely not watching) is a complete turn-off and another reason why I'm probably not watching Arrow this season. Like, I had to endure an entire season of Ray Palmer torture. Was that not enough?! I don't want to watch your stupid new show, so why are you wasting my time with spinoff characters that I don't care about?! Oh, this makes me incredibly frustrated. Arrow had its turn with Ray Palmer, now it is The Flash's turn to prop these new characters. 4 Link to comment
apinknightmare September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 The Flash's turn to prop these new characters. They are, aren't they? Some of these people are showing up on The Flash, and some of them are showing up on Arrow. Link to comment
Sakura12 September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 (edited) I think Arrow is getting Sara, Ray, Hawkman and I guess the new character, Flash is getting Captain Cold, Heatwave, Hawkgirl and Firestorm.

kes0704 September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 Arrow had to launch on its own merits and introduce the audience to the characters without the benefit of another show so all of the spin offs should do the same thing. Oliver was sidelined from his own show too much in season 3 for my liking, it's beyond time to shift focus on Arrow back to...the actual Arrow. 11 Link to comment

I have no idea...haven't read too many spoilers. Sara showing up on Arrow makes sense since she originated on this show. I hate Ray, so while it would make sense for him to show up on Arrow, DON'T WANT. The rest should go to The Flash. Let that show waste the first third of its season on the new characters since Arrow was forced to waste an entire freaking season on Ray Palmer's story.

Happy Harpy September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 (edited) The Flash crossover last year was an improvement over the utter suckage imo that was S3 from the last five minutes of The Calm on, so I didn't mind it. Actually, and although I don't watch/don't even like the Flash, I understand its fans who don't take kindly Arrow characters showing up "every other episode". Wow. Might as well just call 208/408 Legends of Tomorrow with guest appearances by Arrow and Flash cast members....LOL Crossing 408 off my schedule. And now, I'm back to waiting for the first recaps before I watch the season premiere. I know I can't have my cake and eat it, too. Example: My only interest in LoT is Sara, because she's a "real" Arrow character, as said above. I'm looking forward to her resurrection on the show she originated on. Now, I know that if I want to see Sara, I'm going to have to sit through Laurel scenes and I look forward to it as much as I'm looking forward to my next dentist appointment. Another even more unpleasant perspective is not knowing whether they're going to assassinate my dear Quentin further during this storyline. But well, it's part of Arrow. But when I watch and episode of Arrow, I'm entitled (yep, yep, yep, damn freaking entitled) to get an episode of Arrow, not some proto-LoT thing. Damn, I was so optimistic about S4 like a week ago.

Genki September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 I think Arrow is getting Sara, Ray, Hawkman and I guess the new character, Flash is getting Captain Cold, Heatwave, Hawkgirl and Firestorm. That seems pretty even to me at least character wise. I think that the problem occurs where, Captain Cold, Heatwave & Firestorm were a part of The Flash's storylines they are spinning off popular characters, while Ray caused changes to Arrow solely for the sake of setting him up as a spin-off. Isolating Felicity on Palmer Island and making her support him as character rather than the other way around, sucking up the budget for the suit, propping by Arrow characters, tonal shift in his scene compared to the rest of the show, sidelining the main character, crossovers that made no sense in the timeline, he was needlessly inserted into Diggle & Lyla's wedding!!!! Makes me annoyed about S3 all over again Sara's death was a horrible mistake and I'm OK with them reversing it on Arrow, as long as it doesn't take up too much time and give too much Lance family drama, but I'm annoyed that after all that, we will be stuck with the Canary I don't care for at all. 10 Link to comment
statsgirl September 24, 2015 Share September 24, 2015 I think Sara's storyline should be done on Arrow because this is where her family is, Quentin and Laurel, and it gives them a (hopefully) good storyline, not to mention her connections to Oliver, Diggle and Felicity. I hope Ray's storyline will give me some good stuff for Felicity and her new BFF. So far, so good. But Hawkman and the new character and whoever else turns up? No, thank you. Not unless there is a good way to incorporate them in terms of story. I don't give a fig about Captain Cold or Heatwave (they are a negative for me on the new show) and if they along with Hawkgirl show up on the cross-over eps, I'm going to to be finding something else to do while they are on.

And look, there's one end of it dead. Or "dead". Whatever. 2. I didn't really want to mention it, but what about Oliver pulling a Tony Stark?

I have a feeling the professor is connected to RP which is why Arrow gets stuck with him. Because we are stuck with RP again because hes technically an Arrow character (even tho I call bullshit on that). He's just another character, shouldn't really belong to a or f. Oh how I wish we could trade RP for BA, he started on our show too right? But arrow will get sadddled with hawkman, the professor & RP. Here's hoping its better than their other RPs arcs. Sara's resurrection belongs on Arrow. I'm ok with it, even all the Lance drama because its part of the package. I think I will miss when we lose the Canary though. Link to comment

The problem is we wouldn't have been able to see FS staring at either RP or OQ, depending upon how the editor cut it. So for plotty reasons, the writers needed to make RP the minister. Personally, I wish they had anyone else be the minister, because I think that Dyla's wedding should have taken precedence over the angsty love triangle.

tv echo September 25, 2015 Share September 25, 2015 (edited) Despite the EPs saying that they learned from mistakes they made with Arrow, it just seems like they're repeating things on The Flash. Now just read this TV Guide synopsis for The Flash S2 premiere: "Barry decides he needs to protect the city on his own." Apparently, after Eddie's death, Barry pushes away his Star LABS team to protect them and goes it alone. Sound familiar? If the Flash crossover episode (2x08) airs before the Arrow crossover episode (4x08), which seems likely, then the LoT set-up story would begin on Flash and continue on Arrow. This means that new LoT characters first introduced on Flash could continue on to Arrow, which would then introduce additional new LoT characters (unless some LoT characters stay behind in Central City). So it's conceivable that Arrow 4x08 could include all of the following guest characters... Definitely:Sara Lance aka the CanaryRay Palmer aka the AtomBarry Allen aka The FlashHawkman (first appears on Arrow)Dr. Aldus Boardman (first appears on Arrow) Maybe:(*)HawkgirlVandal Savage (*) Spoilers were unclear whether they would show up on Flash or Arrow crossover first, though Hawkgirl did have a cameo on Flash's S1 finale.

Primal Slayer September 25, 2015 Share September 25, 2015 Eddie is Barrys first major loss as a superhero, of course he is going to take it hard and feel like he is putting his friends in harms way, as long as it doesn't last for more then 2 episodes, i think it will be fine. It's better then having Iris having to be doom and gloom about it. 5 Link to comment
tarotx September 25, 2015 Share September 25, 2015 (edited) A friend of mine visited the first day of LOT shooting last week and she talked to Caity Lotz who told her that unlike Arrow, LOT has a lot of scenes (action and not action) where it's the whole team together. So I'm thinking that is how it will be with the Cross over. I'm thinking about that huge table in the new Arrow Cave and thinking that a large chunk of the cross over episode will be in the Arrow cave and of course action.
