I wo...This would have been so nice as a two parter. I would've looooved if they had leaned in to the Mick Rory as gang leader thing for a bit. That's often a thing with time travel shows: they constantly establish different times and locales and have to leave quickly, but sometimes you happen unto a locale that's so cool you want to stay! Captain Cold and Heatwave in an apocalyptic setting is just sooo cool. Can we just have a show of them in this setting? <br /><br />Why is Oliver hanging around in his old haunt? Doesn't seem like a great place to live. Was he sleeping between the rubble inbetween foraging runs? For someone who was seemingly neglecting himself he sure still was fit.<br /><br />Surprised that Diggle Jr. didn't perk up at hearing Sara's name, given the name of his sister.<br /><br />Oliver seemingly. Blamed the end of Star City on Ray and Sara leaving despite the both of them not having that big of a role when they left. I agree that the time travel was weird! But so worth it. Rory in furs!

I feel like I can see what the writers were trying to do, but I'm not sure if they necessarily got there. So many points that Rip made could be very easily countered by the fact that they are actively trying to change the future, and whether Rip wants to admit it or not, it's very, very clear that is family is his main motivation behind this act. So I'm being a little annoyed at his hypocriticalness, even if I am enjoy Arthur Darvil in the role. <br /><br />I did enjoy all of the comic books nods though with Connor Hawke, Grant Wilson, and Oliver only having one arm in a fairly dystopian modern setting. There were so many mentions of Felicity Smoak, though, that I was hoping that she would make an appearance. :/An Honest Fangirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15093676731627861429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-68088931194678233482016-11-17T11:56:10.278-05:002016-11-17T11:56:10.278-05:00percysowner, I was thinking the same thing about s...percysowner, I was thinking the same thing about spry Oliver.

Grant Wilson is Slade's canonical son, he also has a brother called Joshua, who's a good guy and a sister called Rose who's flipflopping between good and evil. <br />I love the Snart/Rory bromance..they read as a couple on the verge of a breakup to me..Rory appears to care for Ray after last week's prison break.. <br />Ray/Jax/Kendra don't work for me..<br />I like Snart trying to be heroic and Sara doing the right thing by saving Connor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-79422225779987204172016-02-26T20:00:42.337-05:002016-02-26T20:00:42.337-05:00LOL, Josie. Great review. :)
I can't see Snar...LOL, Josie. Great review. :)<br /><br />I can't see Snart and Rory as a bromance so much because I'm still sort of seeing them as brothers. But I really liked that Snart is emotionally pulling away from his criminal partnership with Rory because he's starting to care about the mission. I think he is also starting to care about Sara. It's pretty clear to me by this time that Wentworth is a big reason why I'm watching. He was the reason I hung in for the entire run of <i>Prison Break</i>, too. Will Snart and Rory come to blows and break up, or will Rory start to care about the mission, too?<br /><br />The Ray/Jax/Kendra possible love triangle didn't do much for me, except that as always, I enjoy anything they do with Spydad. <br /><br />Stephen Amell rocked that old guy make-up, didn't he? "Oww! My knees!" LOL, Percysowner. :) Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-7021053303494692922016-02-26T19:45:12.573-05:002016-02-26T19:45:12.573-05:00I too think of Snart and Rory as a couple. I think...I too think of Snart and Rory as a couple. I think I read that Wentworth Miller sees Snart as pansexual or at least as having fluid sexuality, so he hasn't ruled that out. He and Rory have great chemistry and Heatwave is becoming a favorite character of mine.<br /><br />Sara shouldn't have been too shocked that Daddy Lance was dead, but Laurel isn't that much older than Sara, so I can understand why that hurt. Everyone seems to have forgotten about Mama Lance, however. Sara certainly didn't really ask about her.<br /><br />I was surprised at how spry Oliver was. I mean, for deciding he was giving up Arrowing, he still apparently worked out. I kept expecting his fight scene to turn comedic and have him say "OWW! My knees!" when he jumped around. <br /><br />I'm enjoying the show for the fluff that it is.percysownerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524512417823662079noreply@blogger.com
