Probably nothing since that wasn't them filming alone.

Why are Dinah and Diggle filming together, alone? ???

We don't know that they are.

False alarm. I will lower the Diggle/Dinah alert system back down to Defcon 4.

I think it's a little early to be getting up in arms about Oliver leaving everyone on the island. It's far more likely that if all or some of them aren't rescued immediately it's because Oliver and/or Argus physically couldn't reach them. The island did explode after all.

I seem to remember that scene [Felicity telling Oliver to kill DD ] being done by second unit, aka Bamford.

True, yes, but shouldn't it have been the director's job to look at a piece of film already filmed that was going to be included in her episode and try to make sense of its tone next to the rest of the episode?  Maybe I'm expecting too much of them.

Myson is the person in least danger though since Chase did him the courtesy of removing the only threat to him. Of course, Oliver would be right to be concerned about leaving him on the boat alone. He would probably try to go swimming or wander off looking for crayons or pet a shark.

So perhaps Chase locking him up in the boat was purely done for his own safety.

If there's filming going on today, looks like SA might not be doing much of it. According to his twitter feed, he's flying somewhere. (Toronto to Van? Toronto or Van to Nashville?)

[Velocity23]

Probably Nashville he mentioned he starts filming on Monday.

[Velocity23]

Its Nashville and he shaved! 

[way2interested]

Wow, funny how a shave can make him look so much better.

[BkWurm1]

So much younger and less tired looking!  And I kind of liked the beard.  

[apinknightmare]

Is that flight attendant a child with a beard? The perspective...

Since you admitted to that I will admit I was kinda hoping for a scene with him chasing Felicity down and tickling her with the beard.

[Guest]

But...I thought he was gonna turn up on the first day of shooting 601 with the comic goatee???? LOL.

I'm glad he shaved. I would say he looks 10 years younger but that might be a stretch. Haha. He looks much better though.

I still can't believe that RG is older than him.

I'm putting it back out there - Dig officiates. And he and Oliver throw everything together.

[calliope1975]

SA and DR are a bunch of lame-o shippers. NEVER CHANGE!

[bethy]

I seems strange to me that they're spoiling a wedding so explicitly and so early. Would they troll people about that? Is it possible it's some sort of trick?

No.

[bijoux]

I think teasing it early ups the likelihood of it happening early in the season. At this point, I'd guess winter finale.at the latest.

Perhaps they are taking the opposite tack from last year when it seemed like people dropped the show based on the "Oliver and Felicity are friends who have adult conversations, nothing more" and "You can't always get what you want" type spoilers.

If there's one group SA has never trolled, it's the Olicity fandom. When there's positive Olicity developments, he spoils them. He warned fans about the breakup and Felicity's boyfriend. Last August at HVFF when fans asked him for a spoilery Olicity quote, he said he didn't have any, which turned out to be true on the show.

IMO, SA has always been consistent in promoting/spoiling only what happens on the show at the moment when it comes to Olicity. Lasy year there was no Olicity to spoil, so that's why he said what he said. There's going to be Olicity in season 6, so that's what he (and DR) are telling fans positive things.

I'm guessing the CW are going to promo the hell out of this thing anyway so Stephen and David spoiling it might not do that much harm rather then getting ahead of the game.

Ugh I hate the idea of a crossover wedding I'm sorry but I'm hoping that's not the case. Barry Kara Sara Ray you ain't welcome!

[Featherhat]

I don't want a crossover wedding either, especially as if it/they happen that early in the season then the likelihood of all couples staying married or not dying by the end is non existent.

[insomniadreams88]

I will only accept a crossover wedding if the attention and time is given to the right characters. I don't want the rest of the Arrow episode of the crossover to be all about the fighters from all 4 shows and then the wedding be at the end like an afterthought or some type of add-on item on Amazon.

[Morrigan2575]

Right track could mean 609. Please be 609!??

Or maybe 607 and the crossover will interrupt the honeymoon.

I highly doubt they are going to marry Oliver and Felicity just to break them up. That seems counterintuitive.

[leopardprint]

I don't want to have to watch 3 episodes of tv shows I don't normally watch with characters I don't care about. Oliver also has already had a crossover wedding (fake).

(Just realized Oliver has had three fake weddings to three different women...)

And you know Barry will do something to mess it up...

Barry? I think the writers will have Black Siren wreak havoc at the Olicity wedding. The meta text of that is way too delicious for them to pass it up. 

[bethy]

Okay, y'all have made me feel better. Except for the crossover wedding. Or Barry ruining something. Or Black Siren. :)

[calliope1975]

I was very vocal about wanting a crossover wedding when, like, 2 shows were involved. Now with 4, I'm way more 'meh' on the topic. 

9 minutes ago, insomniadreams88 said:

I'd rather this happen. Olicity gets their rightful Arrow wedding; hijinks cut the honeymoon short. 

[LeighAn]

I'll only (very mildly) tolerate a crossover wedding if WestAllen gets nothing #petty

 

For real though, Pride and Prejudice is my favourite novel but I thought the double wedding was cheesy at the end so I don't think I could stomach the lameness if that were to happen in the crossover. And if Olicity were to be the only ones married I still really not a fan of Barry Sara Ray Iris Kara and all those nobodies being there and eating up attention.

 

I feel like the way the Flash and LOT cast were at the 100th Arrow party is like a sneak preview of what an Olicity crossover wedding would look like. 

[bijoux]

609, then they can go to Bali during the winter hiatus.

[statsgirl]

I think it would be kind of hilarious to have Black Siren interrupt the wedding.

Not SA and DR changing tacks but the EPs realizing what a great idea the the "Oliver and Felicity are friends who have adult conversations, nothing more" and "You can't always get what you want" writing was.  Not.

Yes.  Someone on tumblr tell MG.  Then everyone can be surprised they got married and it doesn't interfere with Arrow.

Unfortunately GB etc. seem to think that crossovers are the greatest thing evah so they'll want to put it in there.  Emotional stakes, remember?

This is my pick! 

 

But I'm warm on the idea of 6x07 and their honeymoon being interrupted in 6x08.

[insomniadreams88]

I'd prefer no exes (or as few as possible) or doppelgängers of exes at the wedding.

Well that keeps Sara, Barry, Ray and Nyssa away...good policy ?

Forget the crossover wedding, Diggle doesn't get to keep his beard. ?

Was that in the book?  I have a vague idea that it was in the Keira Knightly movie version but I was too busy laughing at all the anachronisms (like the romantic scene with a billion candles.).  It feels like a double wedding for two such rich men would be an anachronism too.

Pretty much. There's a line about Mrs Bennet being thrilled on the day she saw both her daughters married. So the popular interpretation is that they both got married in the same ceremony.
