Spoiler Discussion Thread: The Sequel

[Morrigan2575]

I only want 1 thing from the 150th and I KNOW I wont get it and, if I did it would probably be mired in bullshit.  All I want is for the documentary to cover that Felicity (with help from Noah and Curtis) pretty much saved the world from Nuclear Destruction.  I will even settle for remember that Nuke that almost hit SC and was diverted at the last minute into Space?  Yeah that was Felicity.

Unless Dinah, Rene and Curtis are gonna reflect on what shit "teammates" they need not be in the documentary at all. Yet, I'm fascinated to see how the show glosses over their behavior and Diggle's in the past year to make it seem like they've always supported Oliver and his mission.

[Mary0360]

I'd take plots and character interactions that make sense, aren't repetitive, lazy and needlessly complicated over 'love letters', just saying.

[Chaser]

I just want a milestone episode that pays tribute to the show, not the show that could have been.

[tennisgurl]

Love Letter, or Dear John Letter? Tune in to find out!

Yep! And probably give the we tried to Help Felicity but she wasnt having it BS

Guarantee we get one maybe two talking heads from Thea, Roy, and others while NTA gets 5 at least

FYI, 712 guest cast credits per IMDb now list Kelsey Grammer as Narrator and Evan Roderick as Officer Nick Anastas - however, from other spoilers, we know that this guest cast list is not complete...

I loved Fraser and thought KG was brilliant there but even just as a narrator it kind of messes with my mind that he's going to be part of the Arrowverse.  Do we know if he's playing himself as the narrator?

To make it super trippy, he narrates as Frasier Crane!

That alone would make this a 10/10 ep for me.

Now I'm going to be so disappointed when this doesn't happen.

DCTV shows renewed.

Oh boy. Totally expected, but I'm never going to be free.

Meh. I figured as much given that they pretty much have already laid ground work for next years crossover in this years one.

When do we get confirmation if cast is coming back or leaving?

Well those would be spoilers so next season if Beth has a say.

I believe SA has already said if there was a season 8 his deal would cover it.  It was after he did that interview with Michael Rosenbaum and people got the impression he was setting the foundation to leave the show and people started freaking.  

For the rest of them I've completely lost track.  

[Primal Slayer]

I expect everyone to be back, only one up in the air would probably be KC. 

[Chaser]

I would say Echo is gone. 

In the question mark category, I would put KC, CH and KA.

[insomniadreams88]

I mean, we can probably assume that anyone alive in the FFs is going to come back.

I'm thinking someone will die in the flash forwards simply to raise the stakes.

[Chaser]

I'm not getting my hopes up. He should have been gone last season, 7x01 at the latest. HE'S A COCKROAH.

Yeah, but that character would still be alive in the present.

I'd guess Rene since RG had the crying emoji in reaction for 713. Either that or that is EK's last episode.

Either RG or JH posted a pic on IG story of the two of them in old makeup last week. Not sure if it was of them filming 716 or a throwback to 710.

Hmm. If Rene does die in the FFs in 713, maybe he leaves some sort of message about that shady guy that leads everyone to answers/Felicity/etc. in 716? Was RG spotted on set for 716? 

However, if Curtis does die in 713, and say, Stanley is the one to kill him, I'm going to laugh so hard. Because KA was bragging about killing a "favorite" character, only for it to happen in a virtual reality situation (because he can't have meant a later episode, right?), and then to have Stanley actually kill that character? Oh, please let that happen.

It would be funny if someone wanted to leave after they've already been revealed to be alive in the future. They'd have to, like...just go live offscreensville for reasons. "Oh, Rene? He's, uh...in the Maldives. Work trip." LOL

I forget hes a regular, I would be 100% surprised if he returns for another. Unlike Laurel, he doesnt have storylines left to play out with being a big bad. You can only fail so many times.

This would be especially glorious after that stupid pic Echo posted of him all excited next to Curtis's wide-eyed corpse.

Especially when he isn't even the Big Bad, he's a filler 😁

Then the camera pans up from Oliver watching the documentary, to a kid starring at a snow globe...

[Morrigan2575]

I don't know if they'll kill Curtis, they may have him leave in protest of Argus or send him off on special assignment. He does appear to have missed a few eps 714-716. They did the same for RG last year. Not sure if they cut his episode count or maybe he wants out. 

I do think it's very suspicious that he's not mentioned in the Mark of 4. I can come up with a bunch of reasons for BS and Emiko not being included but, Curtis is very strange

I guess whoever here was saying they are setting up a next generation of heroes to continue the verse after Stephen and co are done was right:

Edited February 1, 2019 by Mary0360

[apinknightmare]

I think he might be talking more about developing more shows rather than bringing in replacements for the actors who don't want to keep going on the old ones. Or maybe both!

[way2interested]

There's not that many new shows though, are there? Like, there's Batwoman and I guess you could consider Black Lightning new but it's not really part of the Arrowverse. It's basically the same line SA was saying about 2 years ago like "showing that this show can go beyond Oliver."

I can see Maya, Zoe, JJ, William from Arrow. Nora from the Flash, possibly bring Bart on next season or season 7 lol. 

[Morrigan2575]

Pretty sure Pedowitz is talking about new shows, its right there in the Quote, next generation of shows to keep the CW-DC Universe going

I mean I wouldn't be shocked to see an Arrow spinoff of future TA after SA calls it quits, S9, S10, S15 etc. However, that quote is not about turning Arrow S8 or S9 into all Flash Forwards.

Edited February 1, 2019 by Morrigan2575

We should run a prediction pool/thread where we submit our guess on how long Arrow will run, who will remain and see who wins at the end. 😁

[Featherhat]

I guess he could be talking about when SA leaves whether it be after the crossover, after S8-S15 etc but it sounded like new shows to me. If they want to do William, Zoe, Maya whoever in the future, well they aren't exactly getting me stoked to watch that either. 

[calliope1975]

I think martina's comment in that post is me. I might catch up on Black Lightning when it hits Netflix, but I've dropped all the other Flarrowverse shows. I might give Batwoman a try but I was not impressed by Ruby Rose in the crossover.

See I'm not even sure I want to go down the Batwoman road because it will probably be really good the first couple of season, luring you into a false sense of security of non moronic tv, then BAM, dumpster fire. And by that stage they've got you trapped like an alcoholic or smoker who can't quit even though they know it's bad for them.

Once Arrow is done so am I.   

This last episode was so boring.  The live thread and my son kept me entertained.

10 Seasons for both Arrow and Flash

SA, EBR and DR until the end

JH, EK, RG, i think 1 is gone after S7 the other 2 until the end

KA gone after S7

KC hopefully gone after S7

Colton, Kat, Ben, Zoe and JJ (don't know the actors names) for next 3 seasons but with limited contracts 14 eps or so

Sea/Emiko - she's either a regular filling Speedy's spot on the Team (although there are too many already) or she is recurring, popping into town from time to time for a special plot.

JJ is played by Joseph Jones, so his initials would be JJ XD.

Yeah, I'd guess EK and KA (maybe KC) go while BL and KM get picked up as series regulars (with the limited contracts since even as of now with how they execute the FF, BL is only going to be in at most 12/13 episodes this year anyway) and the other FF characters (JJ and Zoe, sans Colton) remain just guest stars/recurring. SS gets WH's type of spot, like technically a series regular but is in and out throughout the season. Everyone else sticks around, although I wonder if DR will get to direct again.
