It's funny how Felicity went from generally liked to universally reviled and Laurel went from generally disliked to one of the best characters on the show. How things have changed. If Felicity becomes the new Black Canary, I honestly won't know how to feel. I desperately hope Sara takes up the mantle. I find it so strange that a few years ago I used to say that Arrow was one of my favorite television shows. Where did everything go so, so wrong?

This is a bullshit answer. Why not just give Laurel a permanent love interest? Or move her to Flash? You don't have to kill off a character to end a relationship.

>Being a DC fan must be suffering

It is, especially for live-action shit.

You forgot the medicore/awful show that is Supergirl, and Guggenheim's massive influence on Legends of Tomorrow. Flash is the only semi-pure show, and this season has been mediocre as fuck.

The show is no longer about The Green Arrow but rather the embodiment of a teenage Tumblr girl created for this show. They ditched Red Arrow, and now they killed Black Canary, GA's comic book love interest, solely so GA could be with the Tumblr girl. The writers prefer to pander to the Tumblr audience instead of the comic audience.

Felicity was liked because she was a cute, generally inoffensive supporting character. In making her a lead, they basically made her a Mary Sue.

Laurel, on the other hand, got her shit together, grew a pair, and became much more the character she always should have been.

Tumblr has a general aversion to women being violently killed in media. Especially if they're lesbians or of color, but women in general. They get...very attached to their favorite characters and genuinely grieve when they die. And, you know, I really can't blame them. You follow a character for years, and then they're gone. It's like losing someone you know.

Honestly I'm not very excited for any of the shows or movies regardless of company besides maybe iZombie at this point. It was neat when it was a new thing, but some people seem to think adaptions "legitimize" stories they've already read as if comics are somehow inferior. The idea that they're bringing the characters to life as if the original stories were somehow not that is generally offputting.

She's not pining, she's passed on. This canary is no more! She has ceased to be. She's expired and gone to meet its maker. This is a late Canary. She's a stiff. Bereft of life, it rests in peace. If the writers hadn't nailed her to the perch it would be pushing up the daisies. She's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-Canary.

Not trolling, what do people like about YJ? I loved the pilot, but dropped it really early on when the characters turned out to be so one dimensional.

Hell, I felt a quite a few CN shows suffered from great pilots turning into crappy shows around that time. Sym-bionic Titan and Thundercats come to mind.

The worst is when they're not even properly killed off. You get attached to them, but they're not mainstream enough so their book keeps getting cancelled, and then the worst hack in the industry gets to kill them while shipping his OC with the main character.

What the fuck did we just watch? I had to take a moment to gather my thoughts about what just happened. I was going in thinking that they were probably going to kill Laurel, but I still held out hope. However, as the episode went on, the telegraphing became apparent, and I felt my rage building. I mean, you actually write a scene where she survives the stabbing at first, just to have her die after promoting the relationship between Oliver and Felicity? I'm sick.

I personally love how not "hand-holdy" it was. For a kid's cartoon it didn't overexplain shit or anything. They threw in tons of comic characters and side stories and just let them happen and be interesting, the writing was very snappy and you didn't really need to know too much to enjoy it.

Pretty much all the characters are great adaptations or interesting spins on the source material.

I don't even know how to take this /co/

you know how like when something that was good turns to shit past a certain point you can say "oh well I can stick to the good and consider everything else non-canon, it never happened". Like for example, for me Supernatural ended with Season 5. Everything from S6 onwards is fanfiction. Or how for me the current Star Lord in Marvel is not 616 SL, just an imposter. There's always room for your headcanon to kick in and help you deal with the loss

But this is just fucking shit. There's no conceivable way in which I can go "yep, I can consider this stuff canon and this other stuff something else". It's just not possible especially because of the ties the show has to stuff like Flash and LoT

Fuck it all. I'm not a big DC fan but I still look forward to any DC stuff just because it's different from Marvel, but every single time it's just a slap in the face

It came back from hiatus and I couldn't work up the nerve to watch the newest episodes. Watched Laurel die tonight, and I'm officially done unless they do a complete retooling of the series.

Yeah I don't mean that I'm shitting on adaptions in general, but something getting an adaption alone isn't going to excite me. Or at least I don't feel compelled to watch them all anymore. Most of them really aren't better than any typical Elseworlds though there is the occasional gem.
>>
>>81535685
Bullshit aside in like one month CW has killed four lesbian characters, like i'm seeing were this is coming from.
That said, the thing that sparked this wasn't the death perse but how the showrunners treated the audience.

you haven't seen Olicity fans have you? they are teh psycho girlfriend made flesh. They are the type of people who get pissed if you spend time with your family and not them. They have to be the sole focus of your world and no one not even family can get between that. Why do you think they got rid of Ollie's kid right away. Can't have a kid around taking Ollies attention away from Felicity

I dropped the show in the episode where felicity got over her crippleness, now i barely check the threads to see if by some miracle things have improved.

I just read an interview with the producer or whatever and he said she's 100% dead and the promise she made Oliver make was not about faking her own death. I'm really hoping he was lying out of his teeth

Even JL wasn't too good outside of a few episodes (Hereafter is the ONLY one with proper pacing outside of the pilot and the finales; many episodes had way too much senseless fights to add time) and JLU only had the Cadmus arc that was particularly noteworthy though it was overall pretty enjoyable even when it meandered.
>>
>>81534789

I honestly dropped it at like episode 4

It was just so fucking dull and boring to watch. Darhk is a great character but he became shit throughout the course of the season and it's clear that the writers have absolutely no idea of what to do with the show anymore, other than write melodrama about Felicity. It's fucking retarded, they don't even actually know what Arrow is about. It's literally another garbage drama show like Gossip Girl at this point, probably even worse

I still remember when I started to watch Arrow and we had motherfucking Slade Wilson. It depresses me to think that I started to watch it along with /co/ just at the right time to see it die

I missed it, were her last words really about Felicity?

Some of the most fanfic tier writing on this show

They probably thought they were geniuses making her dying words an Olicity endorsement
>>
>>81536163
That's fucking brutal, too.

I mean, goddamn. It's the statement of the century that the writers didn't give a single fuck about her and tried to ignore her at every point. Everyone else on the show had romantic interests -- Felicity had, like, 3 guys interested in her.

But they couldn't even write a fucking love interest for Laurel, JUST so they could focus more on Felicity.

Tumblr used to like Felicity.

/co/ doesn't really admit it, but Tumblr girls are around the same level of intelligence as /co/ users. So, it makes sense they'd eventually hate her. I know one of my acquaintances who watches/used to watch this show and blog on Tumblr also eventually started hating Felicity.

Twitter, of all things, is where the biggest Olicity/Felicity fans are.
