Simba122504 July 22, 2017 Share July 22, 2017 I want Lance to stay on the series until it ends. So, please keep him alive. 2 Link to comment

Has anyone quashed the idea of a wedding yet? If not I'm going with the theory that SA is throwing the idea out in the universe, fandom goes wild but they won't spoil anything until later. They don't need to since Twitter is already planning a wedding. And MG added fuel to the fire without confirming anything when he gave out a hypothetical wedding song. Haha that's my theory!

Pretty much Stephen said that Oliver proposed he has the ring and he has been waiting around for Felicity to marry him so he hopes it happens. Or something to that effect. So I say spoiler! 2 Link to comment
insomniadreams88 July 22, 2017 Share July 22, 2017 I'm hoping that PB's absence (though I suppose he could show up for the panel) is simply due to them realizing they had a lot of people going and offered him the time off and has nothing to do with what's happening in season 6. I really can't see them killing off Lance since they can come up with stories for him and Dinah and him and BS. I can't see them not taking the opportunity to explore either relationship. 3 Link to comment
LeighAn July 22, 2017 Share July 22, 2017 To be honest Paul never looked like he enjoyed SDCC all that much anyway so it could merely be that he elected to bow out since the newbies are going. And come on- Siren is such a lame duck villain she's like the Elmer Fudd of villains, I don't think she has the talent to be able to kill Lance. 3 Link to comment

I feel like fandom hyped her importance more than anything. But I guess that'll be changing now! Yep, never got the fandom hype for that character but, I'm happy fandom is happy 1 Link to comment
Guest July 22, 2017 Share July 22, 2017 EBR did a 2 truths/1 lie thing in one interview and it's confusing me. She said Olicity is a) already married, b) getting married, c) never getting married. We know they are getting married so IDGI. Haha. Link to comment
Chaser July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 From what I heard, EK suggested she switch it or change it up or something. I think she switched it. After SA apparently said something to her about expecting a call Monday morning. Its cool Stephen. JBuffy already told on you. Link to comment
statsgirl July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Unless Olicity is already married secretly and they are having a second ceremony for everyone, it can't be two truths and a lie. I think Raise is important to the fandom as a contrast to Moira, a loving mother-substitute who in fanon taught Oliver to cook. I looked up Kathleen Gati's IMDB page. It's pretty impressive. Not just a day player. 1 Link to comment

insomniadreams88 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Maybe they had a "thank God you're alive, let's get married here and now" moment after being reunited and then decide to have an actual wedding at some point? I was a bit confused if EBR told 2 lies or 2 truths with all the talking going on. Link to comment

BkWurm1 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 6 hours ago, Angel12d said: So...PB isn't there. I'm now seriously considering that Lance might be dead. It's not just the BS storyline that they'd be sacrificing, but also their Rene/Lance bromance and Lance helping to cover for Mayor Queen at city hall. Would they give up how very useful he'd be specifically this year just so they could have "consequences" to the explosion on the island? 2 Link to comment

DrSpaceman10 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 I don't like that they keep bringing up Curtis when talking about Felicity in the workplace. She's earned Smoak Tech (?), he hasn't. So, I don't mind if he's involved a little, as long as it's mostly Felicity's story. 2 Link to comment

insomniadreams88 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 I forgot which interview I was watching - it was one of the whole cast ones - I basically became resigned to Samantha dying. And adding in that bit about Samantha running off after William ... I think if Samantha lives or isn't in a coma for months, it will be the biggest surprise of the premiere. Link to comment
apinknightmare July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Stephen said that Oliver isn't a great dad. Which I figured, but still. LOOK, I DON'T CARE ABOUT THIS KID BUT I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO WATCH THAT AND OLIVER BEING A TERRIBLE DAD. 16 Link to comment
tangerine95 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 (edited) Of course he's a terrible dad when they're probably pushing him fully into it and giving him a traumatized kid who doesn't know him and for who he only ever brought danger.I really don't care about this storyline at all,idk why they think it fits this type of show.Plus I don't think the kid they cast can pull of a complicated relationship storyline tbh.

Guest July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 I had a feeling they'd show new island footage so nothing I didn't expect but that trailer was so underwhelming? I could hardly see any of it, it was so dark. Meh. Link to comment
bethy July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Michael Emerson is one of the bad guys? I'm here for that. Though I fear, with this show's writing, it will be a wasted opportunity. Link to comment
apinknightmare July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Also, Thea ran after Samantha, so she's gonna be laid up in the hospital or something isn't she? Link to comment
insomniadreams88 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Am I wrong, or are the only ones we see alive off the island in that trailer (besides Oliver and Myson) Slade, Dinah and BS? Also, I get that Oliver probably didn't have anywhere to leave William, but I don't know how I feel about him taking him with him onto the island post-explosion when he could very well find his mother's body very, very burned and very, very dead.

calliope1975 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 I suppose I get why they marketed next season as thus, but that was a garbage trailer. Gonna go look at pretty pics of EBR and DR and maybe drink some alcohol. 7 Link to comment

Mellowyellow July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 That's was a crappy trailer. I laughed at Myson's bad acting and Samantha the moron running off randomly. We now where Crayola gets his brains from. Gawd nature and nurture that kid had no chance! 2 Link to comment

insomniadreams88 July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Wasn't there talk about redeeming Slade? How is that happening at all when it looks like he goes, "you can all die. I'm going to save myself."? I'm guessing maybe he doesn't leave them and that's going to be a "surprise" for the premiere? But I had enough of "let's pretend Slade is a bad guy, no he's good, no bad, no good" in the finale.

LOOK, I DON'T CARE ABOUT THIS KID BUT I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO WATCH THAT AND OLIVER BEING A TERRIBLE DAD. Yeah its to be expected since they only met a handful of times as "Mommy's friend" (and how is that not insanely creepy?) and both are traumatised but I'm not really looking forward to Oliver failing as a Dad before either giving him back to his mother, should she be alive, or asking Raisa to be his substitute grandmother. I know SA has wanted this for a while but they do have a habit taking an story and writing in a way no human would behave ever. Doesn't help in the slightest that the young actor JM doesn't seem ready for an emotional arc. But seriously Olicity/Felicity are most definitely not to blame for "soap opera plots". 6 Link to comment
SleepDeprived July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 Not gonna mince words, that was kinda pretty sucktastic for the S6 hype trailer. It was just so... Meh? And, dear Lord, they're really gonna subject us to scenes where the William actor tries to act out a plot line of someone who's been severely traumatized? 9 Link to comment

Well they've "officially announced "those characters are back/have been given new series regular status but they've obviously been told to not confirm anything else, despite people realising certain characters have to be back. Love the ME casting and I've loved David Nykl since SGA so more of him is always welcome, can he and Oliver mend their break up, which was about 1000 times as emotional as the Susan "sorry bye the writers have ended our storyline" break up was.
