BkWurm1 July 16, 2015 Share July 16, 2015 (edited) Could someone help me vet this claim I read elsewhere? Executive producer M.G. has said Sara will have memory problems and will blame laurel for stealing her identity while she was gone. M.G. went on to say Sara is going to want revenge. I've watched most of the interviews and read most of the articles and I don't remember anything being confirmed about Sara I certainly don't remember anything about Sara blaming Laurel for stealing her identity. I think I saw something from Caity suggesting Sara would want revenge on Malcolm, but Laurel? There were a lot of interviews. Did I miss something? Edited July 16, 2015 by BkWurm1 1 Link to comment
Sakura12 July 16, 2015 Share July 16, 2015 I don't remember reading that. I heard Caity say she thinks Sara would not like Laurel being a vigilante because it's a dangerous life and it's not what she would want for her. Plus Caity's all about women working together, not against each other. When CL was asked about the BC vs WC, she said she would want them to fight side by side. KC is the one that seems to want them to fight against each other. Also if Sara has memory problems how does she know Laurel stole her identity? The only thing I heard is Sara may be mad at Thea for killing her, but as soon she finds out it was Malcolm she'd go after him. However knowing MG, who doesn't seem to know how women work (despite being married to the women that brought us Peggy Carter) would probably make WC and BC have a catty girl fight, because he's really a 12 year old boy. 1 Link to comment
tv echo July 16, 2015 Share July 16, 2015 (edited) Arrow info from the io9 article (posted in the LoT media thread)... We’ve heard we might see the pasts of the Flash and Arrow universes. Does this mean we might see characters like Robert and Moira Queen?Guggenheim: That’s the beauty part of a time-travel show. You can go back to season one of Arrow, or even before then. That’s part of the fun. So much of it depends on, what stories are we telling, and are the actors game for reprising their roles? Given that there’s so much time travel on Legends of Tomorrow, will events in this series change or directly affect events in the same universe, on The Flash or Arrow?Guggenheim: The concept of time travel that was introduced on Flash is going to be applied consistently within the Berlanti-verse. So that said, we’re not doing to use time travel on Legends to retcon something on Arrow. How much will Sara [the White Canary]’s resurrection affect the characters on Arrow, or will that be kept separate?Guggenheim: No, we’re going to cover that whole story on Arrow. She’ll be ready to go for Legends by the time Legends starts up.* * *In terms of tone and overall story, how is Legends going to compare to Arrow and Flash?Showrunner Phil Klemmer: Arrow is super-dark, vigilante, grim, crusader of justice. And Flash has a sort of lightness and family quality that ours will be a little bit closer to. But ours is a little bit more adult, a little bit more madcap, more of like a caper. It’s sort of Ocean’s 11, where you have this team of misfits who’ve been sent on, essentially, a suicide mission. It will have a lot of interpersonal tension, but it’s almost like a family dynamic between people who don’t get along, but they’re forced to get along, because they’re stuck on this time-traveling space ship and having to save the world. But if it weren’t for that, they would absolutely kill each other! At a certain point we will have darkness emerge, and characters will betray one another, and be tempted by the dark side. Others might not make it along for the full trip, or will get lost in weird time periods. But I think when they’re all hanging out, you can’t help but have people who are that different have fundamental disagreements about the stupidest things. It’s a very quippy, wisecrack-y show. That, to me, is hilarious, and that’s what I want to write.* * *Will we be seeing Ray Palmer on Arrow before Legends premieres?Brandon Routh: Yes, I think we’re going to see all of the characters come off of either Flash or Arrow to build the story, to build the team on Legends of Tomorrow.

SmallScreenDiva July 16, 2015 Share July 16, 2015 I know there are a lot of Sara fans eager to see her on "Arrow" again but man I'm going to be so pissed if this turns out to be Season 2B all over again. She's going to be in the spinoff, why not tell her story there? And then we're going to see Ray's story, too, right? Ugh! I need this season to focus on the main Arrow characters. That's what the EPs promised during SDCC: the spotlight on Oliver, Felicity and Diggle, with the latter two getting the story lines I've been waiting for for three years. 10 Link to comment

I don't care about Sara and Laurel and I'm too annoyed at Lance to enjoy those interactions. I realize that there needs to be some resolution in the Lance family, but I was hoping it would be minimal on Arrow and the bulk of it would be on LOT where Sara takes the lead. If I watch it on Arrow, I'm just going to consistently reminded of how they completely jacked up Black Canary. 3 Link to comment
kismet July 16, 2015 Share July 16, 2015 I really hope Ray Palmer is found on ARROW super quickly and them promptly shipped to FLASH to get his big spin-off send-off while they help him adjust his suit & powers. I feel like that should be a Cisco mission. Perhaps his explosion will be the one the link to BA's time blackhole. Somehow his story becomes more attached to the FLASH & less to Arrow.

I do really think that Arrow has the better characterizations & overall is a stronger show. The Ocean's 11 dynamic of LoT is interesting draw. I feel like the Flash will show some major flaws & deficits this season when they have to take on spin-off set-up. The show seemed to have an even worse time integrating stories outside of Harrison Wells. I hope her Devil's advocate does not come true. I want DD to be NO one's father on the show. He is pure evil from what they describe him as. I feel like Diggle will already have a compromised relationship & rehabilitation path with OQ/FS that I don't need one more anvil of drama thrown on it. I actually think Andy's death will be the thing that helps to reconnect & bond OQ/FS/JD back together without their being any paternal connections. 2 Link to comment
GreatAtBoats July 16, 2015 Share July 16, 2015 They want the LOT team working right out of the gate. They can't do Sara's resurrection story on LOT. Like it or not, she's been a fundamental part of the story of this show since the pilot, even through the entirety of S1 where the ramifications of her apparent death were still being felt by not only the Lances but by Oliver, as well. I personally don't understand why having her be a big part of S4 is any different than Felicity being such a big part of the show now that she will practically be considered a co-lead along with Oliver (and Diggle, who I don't use as a comparison to Sara because he's been a regular since the pilot, at least) other than personal preference. It may not interest most posters here, but it interests others. 1 Link to comment

I also don't like how Arrow tends to make Sara plot-driven to further everyone else's stories but her own. If they give me Sara's story? I'll be thrilled. If she's back to facilitating other people's development? I'm gonna complain about it here a lot. Just as I complain about it here a lot when Felicity does that. 3 Link to comment

That’s cumbersome if you are an audience member, it’s cumbersome if you are playing the character, it is cumbersome, period. It’s also not as interesting as Oliver going through different phases. I think it has been important and critical to where we have ended up and I hope we get to see some different sides of him” The theme of Season 4: “It’s too early to tell. You can always tell sort of by the mid-way point when you very much [knew] that it’s all about identity going into season 3. I don’t really know what it is yet, going into season 4. Which is a good thing actually, I think that a season that takes a minute to play out is a little bit refreshing.” When asked where the flashbacks be taking place this season: “No comment. Where the flashbacks are taking place this year is a plot point that shall remain a secret. We haven’t filmed anything yet so we don’t have a trailer to show anybody, but I actually think it will play well to what the audience will discover in October when everyone else does.” Edited July 18, 2015 by tv echo Link to comment

People are denigrating Felicity for crying all the time, when Barry did it too and no one's writing any articles about that. It doesn't matter if the tears were valid or not - they're both criers. The woman's getting criticized for it in the media, and the man isn't. That's why I brought it up. Edited July 16, 2015 by apinknightmare 18 Link to comment
