I always forget just how monstrous Damon actually is.

I just mean that seeing ollie as confrontational and avoiding responsibility is disappointing. Seeing him as a brutal murderer is something else.

I think Thea's fear, whether she realizes it or not, is seeing Ollie as anything other than heroic. Put Ollie back on the island, and Thea will probably see an animalistic side to her brother she's never seen, and that will terrify her.

I think that Ollie's fear is Slade. He's going to Lian Yu to face the man who knows him better than almost any other, and he's got a lot of baggage when it comes to slade.

I had too many feels. I didn't know what to do with them. Arrow has made me feel too much in an hour. No show has made me feel like this for a long time.

Hey, I was all hyped on the idea Eclipso was in this ep

It's all fun and games until someone dies…and then someone else goes back in time to change the past and ends up creating an alternate timeline where things are much worse and they realize, to their great horror, that the shitty way things are is actually better for the world as a whole. And then it's just funny.

Well his parents were on last week and their son was mentioned.

Bruce can still be a corporate guy without being Batman. The two aren't co-dependent.

that's a pretty awesome idea, but I'm so far running with the idea that this is the world where Thomas and Martha were never shot and killed, so Batman never was a thing.

This gets all my upvotes. Awesome, awesome theory that I really hope plays out now. The only problem is that Wells had the voice thing going on, but if they can work around that, I'm so in.

I mean, Mark Waid made Zoom a loop anyway: He goes back in time and assumes Barry's identity over fears that he will turn into Zoom; Wally ends up forcing him to become Zoom and when he returns to the future, he only remembers that he is zoom and hates barry, thus going back in time and becoming Zoom. It's nothing new.

Again, people need to realize that Blackout didn't gain the Flash's powers, he just drained them. If Wells used it on himself, he'd only lose his own powers. My original theory was that he needed the serum to shut down zoom and protect barry, but now I suspect he's planning to shut barry down at some point soooo.

you bastard. you're right.

I agree, even though I'm easily more of a Flash fan, but I think I can explain:

I laughed at every dumb quip. It was awesome.

Balliver?

Spot on.

lol there are no panels being brought to life, nice try. It's great because it's pushing itself and being silly and bringing in a lot of content that we want (like Grodd and Captain Cold and the Reverse Flash) while SHIELD dabbles in unknown/unwanted properties that it plays up as being 'the lesser known corners of…

To be honest, it always seems like AoS is very conscious of the fact that it's a TV show and plays to TV conventions of how you do fights/etc. Arrow/Flash seem like they're trying to be movies on TV.
