lemotomato September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 Can someone please clarify which Crisis storyline they're going to do? Because DC has like, 5 big comic events with "Crisis" in the title 1 Link to comment

insomniadreams88 September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 No Felicity or Diggle in the crossover key art? They seem to be going for an "all masks" thing or whatever, but uh, did they forget Diggle is Spartan? (I kind of figured Thea would be MIA during the crossover, whether it's due to her just coming out of a coma/still in a coma/just conveniently taking a trip out of town.) 1 Link to comment
Guest September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 I sure do love seeing Felicity and Diggle left out of the official artwork. GTFO. Link to comment
Midnight Lullaby September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 It took me like five minutes and reading who is who to recognize the characters..other than that is one/two of them Prometheus on that poster or is he supposed to be evil GA or what? Link to comment
leopardprint September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 (edited) It looks like evil/alternate versions of the characters to me. It's hilarious that instead of better integrating the side characters they are like nope evil versions of the main characters. ETA: After reading @apinknightmare's link, please no Nazis. 9 MINUTES AGO, WAY2INTERESTED SAID: That sounds very entertaining to me.

Belinea September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 So, can we assume that Barry and Iris try to get married and before they can do it all hell breaks loose? Link to comment
Guest September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 (edited) They are so dumb. Excluding Felicity and Diggle but including the new masks just makes me resent the newbies tbh. It's so unfair and it makes me wonder just how much screen time they're going to get. Felicity especially because she doesn't wear a mask at all. Haha, that's a no from me.

LolaRuns September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 So maybe the two weddings being officiated, maybe it might just be Barry and Iris twice. One time it gets interrupted and one time for real? Link to comment
Midnight Lullaby September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 I guess she can provide the tech support staying back with Iris while the others fight the evil version of themselves..I'm also wondering how many villains they plan to include without it resulting in a hot mess. Just now, LolaRuns said: So maybe the two weddings being officiated, maybe it might just be Barry and Iris twice. One time it gets interrupted and one time for real? It could be that. I don't understand why he worded it like that though..you should say "Dig will officiate a wedding twice", not two weddings if it's the same one. Link to comment
Guest September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 Apart from the first one, the crossovers are always rushed and messy but that sounds like an extra hot mess tbh. Link to comment

So much this. If Arrow - and specifically Diggle and Felicity were treated equitably in this "universe," Diggle would punch Barry in the face every time he sees him. All that artwork does is confirm my instinct not to watch any of the crossover. 2 Link to comment
Trisha September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 (edited) According to this article, the characters getting evil versions will be Oliver, Supergirl, Barry and someone we don't know (the other archer in the poster, I guess). No mention of Nazis. What the hell is Earth X? {ETA: Earth X is apparently a version of Earth where Nazis won, so maybe that will come up after all.] Quote The premise is that Barry and Iris’ long awaited wedding pulls together all their friends, whether from this Earth or otherwise, only to be gatecrashed by evil versions of Kara, Ollie, and Barry from Earth-X, alongside a fourth mysterious masked bow-wielding villain. I really hope Dig isn't officiating the wedding (or if he is, he did Olicity's first at least). This feels like a wet blanket has been thrown over all the excitement of the last day of pap pics (of which this one is my new fave -- it's like she slapped his butt so hard he's complaining about it): Edited September 22, 2017 by Trisha 7 Link to comment

I get the first 2 centering around Arrow/Flash, but after that, change up the dynamics! Let others take bigger focus. The big 3 can still be important in their own way. And since it's Earth X it looks like the animated series will probably set this up? We are getting our first glimpse of EX baddies in animated form afterall. Link to comment
apinknightmare September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 Yeah, I think that they're introducing The Ray here, which means - I guess - that there are going to be Nazis, which seems like...oh such a bad idea, but these shows have tons of those. Link to comment

Mellowyellow September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 Does all this mean there's a good chance we're on track for a 620 wedding? Because if they're not re engaged yet a 620 wedding sounds like it'll be about right. Time to mend things with Diggle etc I also can't work out if the pics are Felicity bonding with William or EBR bonding with the actor.

statsgirl September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 They always double down on the masks for the crossovers, except for the first one. That's why I hate the crossovers. All hype, no enjoyment. Quote The premise is that Barry and Iris’ long awaited wedding The other reason I hate the crossovers. It makes assumptions about viewers of all the shows, generally in line with what Bam Bam thinks.

I don't trust these writers to do a Nazi story line justice. Just like I don't trust them to do a BLM story line justice. I don't want to see my heroes be Nazis. (Except for Barry if it involves multiple people punching him.) I'm going to need more than a roomful of masks and a roomful of evil doppelganger masks. All gathering for a wedding I give no effs for especially because Iris deserves better. I'm trying to take a wait and see attitude, but I'm obviously failing.

Mellowyellow September 22, 2017 Share September 22, 2017 I was kinda prepared for it after last year's 100 episode debacle and all the hints that Comic fans will lose their minds etc They are obviously catering to a certain audience with these Crossovers (and I'm willing to bet this type of audience will enjoy the crossover) so we have to just lump it and hope for better stuff in the normal episodes. Hehe the butt grab pictures were so well timed! I feel like I've been appeased enough by the pics to be chilled and not rage. Will vent my frustrations through fanfic if need be *skips through a field of clovers with the birds chirping* 2 Link to comment
apinknightmare September 23, 2017 Share September 23, 2017 I don't mind crossovers being based on big comic events - I think it's pretty cool for shows that follow their own canon a lot of the time to get kinda goofy and do stuff that's true to their roots (to the extent that it can with shows that follow their own canon). I'm here for the character moments - however sparse they are - when we get them and they aren't garbage, which seems to be most of the time! I don't mind a storyline with E1 heroes fighting Nazis, I just don't want the Nazis they're fighting to be some other Earth's versions of themselves. It made me too uncomfortable to watch much of The Ray, and I don't think it will be even a little better here. 5 Link to comment

If they want to use Nazis, why not just have them be straight up enemies of Team Arrow and Star City. Or if they have to fight their evil doppelgangers just make them evil doppelgangers without making them Nazis. 2 Link to comment
Simba122504 September 23, 2017 Share September 23, 2017 (edited) I knew they were going to do that storyline because it's been talked about for years. I'm not shocked they're doing it this year.

Guest September 23, 2017 Share September 23, 2017 (edited) I definitely have no problem with them doing a big comic book storyline for the crossover. It's a comic book show. I expect it. I just also expect the characters to be treated properly, especially ones who've been core members of the team since the start. My only hope right now is that it's better than last year's alien disaster. Edited September 23, 2017 by Guest Link to comment

I'd far rather a wedding being in 6.20 or later in the season than earlier, slightly less chance of it blowing up or anyone dying (obviously not 100% though) than pre MSF. 3 hours ago, Chaser said: Some were mocking the account that called them an old married couple, saying nothing about the photos screamed couple.
