Felicity and Oliver Find the Truth Underneath

Image
 Oliver and Felicity find themselves in trouble.  They are trapped in the lair, and now they will have the one thing they haven't had all season:  Time to Talk. These two love each other, and it doesn't matter what the naysayers think, Oliver and Felicity belong together.  They belong together not because the fans want it, honestly, these people can't seriously think that writers write only for a certain fan base.  No show could exist that way.  I think they saw when they brought Emily Bett  Rickards in for the day that she and Stephen Amell conncected on screen.  But even that was not enough.  They both have to act well enough to make the viewer believe it, and these two actors did.   Ever since season 4 ended, Oliver and Felicity have avoided facing the truth an that truth is they both need one another. Yet needing each other is not enough. If there is not honesty in a relationship, you can't have the depth you to survive all the ro...

Review Arrow 519: Felicity Smoak vs Oliver Queen

Image
  Just a note:  I live in Arizona, and the Sawmill fire has taken out the transponder of the CW station, so not even Dish or Direct TV  can get the station in our area.  Please keep the firefighters  in prayer. Our sky looks cloudy but it is the smoke from the fire.  There are high winds today so prayers are needed.  Anyway, I can only watch the CW app, which comes out the next day.  Sorry  for my review being late.  Oliver and Felicity : This episode broke my heart, because Felicity and Oliver are at odds with  each  other. The paradox is though they are fighting the same enemies, they have different ways to  go  about it.  What is so so heart-wrenching is that you can not only see the  love they have for each other but you can feel it.  After Felicity announces that Helix can get information on Chase, Oliver, Diggle, and Lyla tell her she can't do it this way.  Diggle asks  her if she ...

Something interesting for you

                 I am between classes now...next group of students due soon, so not a lot of time. I found this, and thought it was worth sharing. Hope you think so too:  http://www.ibtimes.com/arrow-season-5-spoilers-new-trailer-teases-felicitys-rogue-side-2528152 Let me know in the comments section what you think.

Oliver Fights to Stop Felicity

Image
  Oliver will stop at nothing to keep Felicity from doing whatever Helix wants her to do in exchange for stopping Adrian Chase.  Felicity has one singular mission and that is to get Chase and stop him from hurting any more people, but most especially from hurting Oliver.  When Oliver hurts, Felicity hurts.  In Season 4 Oliver told Felicity that he didn't want to let her go, and from what he know that's coming in episode 20, they both didn't want to let go.  That's why they barely touched each other all this season, because they both new one touch, and it was all over.  Felicity loves Oliver, and she is going to know how much he loves her in this episode. I am in many ways more excited about this episode than am about episode 20.  Don't get me wrong, I am looking forward to it, but this one is just as important.   Here are a couple of videos that I found to show how connected they truly are.  Enjoy.

Chance to Win

Image
Tomorrow night is Flash, and since I watch Flash, I thought perhaps some of you might also. and I found a youtube channel that is offering a good giveaway.  You can win either a Pop Bunko or a tee shirt from any of shows Arrow, Flash, and Legends.  All you have to do is watch the video, like the video, and then in the comment section tell what you are looking forward to in Flash.  So here is the video, if you would like to enter.  Good luch to those who enter.

Thoughts on Sizzle Reel

Image
 We know Yao Fei is going to return, but my guess is that he will come back in the same way Shado and Tommy did in season 2 of Arrow.  He will be some type of motivation for Oliver.  Perhaps this shows up in the Russia flashbacks, because it seems what little I could see of Oliver, he had his longer hair.   Nyssa and Deathstroke will be there, and my guess they will appear in the last two episodes.  Oliver will enlist Slade's help. If  Felicity is the one who is taken in "Missing" and the other team members are in danger, Oliver might think he has no other choice.  What is interesting will be that both men had been friends on the Island, and so it seems fitting that both men should once again be on the island to end this first book of Arrow.   Everyone Oliver loves will be in danger on the island, including Thea.  We haven't seen much of Thea.  So much is at stake for Oliver. He will have to find it the strength within himself to o...

The Rise of Olicity

Image
This is what we've all been waiting for:  The Rise of Olicity! Did you see Olicity rising from the elevator shaft...symbolism my friends of the rise of Olicity. Everyone appears in danger, and Oliver reaches out to Slade Wilson to put an end to it all.  Oh my! Yao Fe appears, and my guess it may be as a vision. The next five weeks are going to be so awesome.

Dangerous Liaisons Pivotal to Episode 20

Image
In one week we will finally see Dangerous Liaisons, and I am sure we all can't wait.  This will be pivotal to the rest of the season, and sets up the beginning of the understanding of Oliver and Felicity. Felicity can get information on Chase from Helix, but they want her to do something dangerous for them.  Whatever it is, it must be illegal, and Oliver wants Felicity to back out, but she tells him, "You'll have to stop me," and I look forward to seeing exactly how he does it.  Felicity in that brief scene, appears almost darker than Oliver from Season One. We all know Oliver cares to much for Felicity to let her go down this dark path, if he can stop her.  I think the whole team will be behind him.  I know everyone, me included looks for to episode 20, but  this one will be one that leads us to 20, and the we will learn a lot from this episode.  When Oliver get's Felicity out of Helix, she won't be happy, and that certainly will lead into the ...

How Oliver and Felicity Fell in Love

Image
I had trouble sleeping the other night, so I watched an episode from season two.  Stephen Amell once was asked when he thought Oliver realized he loved Felicity and he responded with season 2 episode 6.  It was from the time in Russia. I found these reason why I agreed with SA. :) When he was told Felicity's skirts where short, he looked back at hurt, and said, "Her skirts aren't short." He gave her a cute wink before they got into the car He was sorry that Felicity caught him Isabel Roschev The humor when Felicity said, What's in Russia, stays in Russia" You could see he was sorry he hurt her. When he went to talk to Felicity at her desk, and Felicity said to Oliver, "You deserve somebody better than her."  His eyes filled with love.  Oliver often speaks with his eyes. In looking for a video of some of those scenes, I found this video, and it does an excellent job of summarizing how they came together.  Looking forward to the next...

The One who Dissed Arrow and Olicity to Come Back for the Season Finale?

Image
        Deathstroke to appear on Arrow.  Will Oliver enlist the help of Deathstroke  to defeat Chase?  This has been spoiled recently online.  How do you feel about that?  I thought that Deathstroke was a formidable villain, and one we all liked to watch, but I have mixed emotions on this.  Manu Bennett spent time dissing the way Arrow treated his character, and he dissed the direction of Olicity as well, so I for one, knowing how he felt about the show, have trouble accepting him in the role, but hey,  that's just me.    Some blog posts suggest that Felicity will get his help to save Oliver, but I am hoping that Oliver will  get his help in saving Felicity.    I want Oliver to bring Felicity out of her darkness. Oliver has spent the last five years discovering who he really is, and now it's time to begin the new Chapter of  the Green Arrow, certain of who he is and what he wants.  Hopefully t...
