What, exactly, is the purpose of all these visits. Do the heroes need more lessons? 

[insomniadreams88]

That whole thing with Kate/Oliver/Ray seemed like a real stretch and the writers going, "hmm, who's in this crossover already we can throw together into a scene from the past that'll be easy to reproduce?" 

[Lantern7]

“Lex. We need to talk.”

”This is the ‘annoying ray of sunshine’?” “You have NO idea, man.”

I would rather have seen the actual bonding moments, whether from previous crossovers or new shots. Not seeing the relevance in the moments they chose yet.

Barry should have told Laurel that her dad would go on to lose his damn mind and kidnap her evil doppelganger and end up replacing her with this other Laurel, who takes over her whole life. 

...kind like what she did to Sara's superhero identity! What goes around come around!

[BaggythePanther]

Kara’s never seen a door that she didn’t want to kick down.

[Trisha]

This is...really bad. 

[apinknightmare]

I'm confused. Are these moments that are actually supposed to have happened?  I remember some of them (or versions of some of them), but some are definitely all new. Or are they just being created in the Speed Force and aren't meant to be recreations/missing moments?

“Dog Honors”? Gotta remember that for tomorrow night.

[tennisgurl]

Why are they picking Arrows very worst moments and episodes!? Why not stick in a flashback to Dickhead Dragon mumbling away and get it over with!

...dont you fucking dare.

[Lantern7]

Please, before COIE is over, let Barry say one of his fave bands is Better Than Ezra.

Another of MG's "love letters" to Arrow fans

[Guest]

This has been awful so far.  Its like they decided they needed to honor Arrow's history somehow but didn't really want to and then had 30 minutes to fill with nothing.

Its like a clip show with clips no one ever wanted to see.

[quarks]

Look, do we even KNOW if the Monitor's planet HAS dinner knives and if they object to being stabbed by them?

[scarynikki12]

The Hairless One is a solid title for Lex. 

[mtlchick]

"The hairless one warned me." 

[Lady Calypso]

I'd be down for a spinoff with Dr. Ryan Choi.

[Primal Slayer]

I still dont understand why they need to recreate moments instead of giving us actual COIE moments...doppelgangers....they really didnt know how to fill out 5hrs.

[quarks]

I gotta say, both of their costumes/suits look really good given all of that time spent without laundry service!

[scarynikki12]

Power Rangers Canyon!

[Lantern7]

This is big. Barry dug out Sara’s White Canary outfit.

Not to be picky or anything, but rocky planets formed AFTER the dawn of time.

[Lady Calypso]

Anti-Monitor...can you turn down your Echo? I can't understand you.

[Guest]

I didn't understand anything anti monitor said.

They filmed in new Zealand?

[tennisgurl]

What was that Anti Monitor? Speak up, I cant hear your evil plan from over there!

 

 

[statsgirl]

Running together has replaced the heroes V formation

[tennisgurl]

Expecto Patronum!

Not sure about Power Rangers, but we've definitely seen this quarry on Arrow, Flash and The 100 before.

And X-Files at least once.

SA gets to do a Supes fight

[KittenPokerCheater]

I mean, I knew this cross-over-crisis-series wasn't going to satisfy everyone, but this is beyond the pale.  I expected more from the showrunners/writers.

 

[Lantern7]

Final episode of Arrow, by the way.

[calliope1975]

I just remembered there's another hour of this, and I kinda got sad. That it was continuing not ending. 

[tennisgurl]

A do over? Can we make it so that Arrow season three never happened?

[scarynikki12]

Obtuse Oliver is solid.

[Primal Slayer]

"You're paragons so you are SUPER POWERFUL even though half of you have no powers"

[Last Time Lord]

Between Oliver and Anti-Monitor, I am SO close to turning closed captions on.

[quarks]

FIX YOUR RAIN MACHINE BEFORE EVER USING IT AGAIN that caused me actual physical pain

[Guest]

Now I'm envisioning Oliver birthing the universe.

That’s what Twitter called it. 

[Primal Slayer]

You can tell that they used body doubles/stunts to do 90% of this scene.

[shantown]

I'm still mad they're fighting ghosts

[Lantern7]

Poor Ryan . . . the battle breaks out, and you’re basically Yamcha.

Edited January 15, 2020 by Lantern7

[Lady Calypso]

Ok, no joke. I REALLY don't understand what Anti-Monitor is saying. 

[tennisgurl]

Dont you mean inevitable? 

Sorry, wrong franchise. 

[quarks]

Oooh, Oliver has superpowers now!

[calliope1975]

The fuck is this?

[scarynikki12]

The battle does look decently chaotic.

That was mean.

[shantown]

Thank goodness Oliver and the anit-Monitor finally started fighting instead of standing around chatting
