Trini August 21, 2017 Share August 21, 2017 15 hours ago, LolaRuns said: To me it still feels like it would be odd to have the WestAllen wedding right in the middle of the crossover. To me it just seems that a wedding would work better right at the beginning (the events start by the wedding getting disrupted) or at the ending (as the happy end to the crossover). But neither Supergirl nor Legends seem really suitable for this. And I don't think it would be good for the ship if the wedding took place on another show, because that means either would be missing from the season dvds or the season dvds would have to include episodes from the other shows (which hasn't been the case so far). Presumably the events start on Supergirl and whatever happens makes her convinced to team up with the rest (either the threat is so big she needs support, or she discovers something that will effect Earth Prime). They have promised that this time Supergirl would be more well integrated into the crossover, so even, let's say, Supergirl learns about things, but it takes place mostly on her show and Arrow starts with Supergirl crashing into their verse and maybe interrupting the Olicity wedding would feel odd, because that would even mean that the Supergirl is only superficially related to the crossover rather than crossover characters showing up in the Supergirl episode already. So either you have WestAllen wedding in a way that Barry is not that involved in the first 2 parts of the crossover (which I can't picture) so he would still be in the right happy headspace for the wedding, or he would decide to go forward with the wedding, despite the presumably being a huge threat affecting the world. The only other options I could picture if there is a fakeout victory at the end of Arrow. Episode 1: Supergirl discovers the threat. Episode 2: The threat appears to have been dealt with, but under some sort ot great loss. Episode 3: Thinking the threat has been vanquished they go forward with the WestAllen wedding, but it turns out the threat is back. Episode 4: Everything is wrapped up on Legends. To me the more traditional pacing would be the team getting their first big ass handing to them in the second episode. Episode 1: Threat is establish. Plans get formed to defeat it. Episode 2: Plan fails. Episode 3: Low point/character building. Episode 4: They find a way to defeat the threat. I agree that a wedding in the Flash episode wouldn't fit with the traditional pacing. (And we still don't know if there will be a wedding at all, and who and when.) However, Arrow managed to have it's 100th episode tribute mostly unconnected to the larger crossover threat/events, so I think it is possible that they could pull off a WestAllen wedding during the Flash episode. To me, having the central couple (from whichever show) get married on another show is less likely than them breaking the format. 2 hours ago, BkWurm1 said: And then yes, the full crossover movies would be on all the DVD's. Didn't they do that the last couple years anyway? Not this year, unfortunately. It was only for Flash Season 2 and Arrow Season 4 where they put the crossover episodes on the DVDs. Quote Yeah, just because Flash has a girl's episode (And I really hope it does end up being one where the boys go out of town or at least take a backseat to the action) doesn't mean we won't get something on Arrow. And we have plenty of girl power anytime they want to go there. Oh and I just need to take a moment to geek over Katee Sackhoff showing up! Yay Starbuck!!!! It could be a bachelorette party, but I'm not getting my hopes up so soon. I'm glad Iris will get to hang out with other females. As for who could stand for Iris at the wedding, there's Linda (everyone wants her back, make it happen, Show!), Felicity, and to a lesser extent, Kara, Jesse and Cecile (and maaaaybe Cecile's daughter). For some reason, they never really developed a friendship between Iris and Caitlin (despite them both being regulars for 3 seasons) and then Caitlin colluded with Iris' would-be-murderer last season, so she is OUT of the running. 1 Link to comment

But for the most part, the news of EBR being on The Flash has ended the denial and insistence that she dies on the island. A moment of silence for all the fallen hopes. ;) ????????? There's a lot of "she's always the one that gets the crossovers!" carping at the moment. But 1) It's "GNO" that means none of the guys crossing over for it would make sense and Felicity is the only one who really knows Iris that is a regular 2.) It's not Felicity's fault the Flash writers can't give Iris more friends or have a bigger permanent female cast. 3) We don't know which other female characters will be in the episode, they could have been trying to arrange for Malese Jow to come back for all we know (kinda doubt it but still). 4) That means they think it's worth it because she's popular (and they probably have data showing it). 5) It's more difficult for the title characters to crossover because they're often in 90% of the scenes per episode. It annoys me when people say EBR is getting special treatment with the crossovers, she's roughly consistent with the 1 person or small crossovers with a lot of the other cast. Not counting big team "full" crossovers or characters originating on Flash or Arrow before becoming regulars on LOT, otherwise BR would win or the fancy "Flarrowverse regulars" contracts in place last season otherwise JB, WM and NMD would eclipse a lot of this list. EBR has been in 3 of Flash and 2 of LOT SA has been in 2 of Flash and 3 of LOT KC has been in 2 of LOT and 2 of Flash PB has been in 2 of LOT and 1 of Flash GG has been in 4 of Arrow and 2 of Supergirl CV has been in 2 of Arrow, 1 of LOT and 1 of Supergirl So she doesn't have more than SA really, although maybe a bigger part of the Flash ones than him, though he had a much bigger part than either of her two LOT episodes (that weren't Invasion).

Wonder Woman, which released in theaters on June 2, has made an estimated $404,008,376 million domestically, eclipsing the original Spider-Man's long-held record of $403,706,375. Spider-Man has held that top spot of all superhero origin films since 2002, with Deadpool most recently coming close to its record, though that 2016 X-Men spinoff still missed the mark by about $40 million. (Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds congratulated Wonder Woman once the film surpassed his movie's box office total.) * * * That number is, of course, is unadjusted for inflation — when accounting for inflation, Spider-Man's domestic total becomes $549,314,445, a much higher final tally than Wonder Woman has or likely will ultimately amass. And worldwide, Wonder Woman is still shy of Spider-Man's $821 million haul, compared to the $800 million milestone that Wonder Woman surpassed this weekend.

Mellowyellow August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 She should be the one that gets lots of crossovers! She's one of the most popular characters in Arrowverse and the fans lose their sh@t when she does crossover! People just need to accept that and move on! If their favourite character was as popular and generated as much buzz maybe they would crossover too. Alas they probably just generate crickets! Get over it! Link to comment

Mellowyellow August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 Laurel and Felicity have no bad history though. As far as Felicity is concerned she (Felicity) is the love of Oliver's life and Laurel is an ex from his past. Nothing to do with her at all. I reckon Laurel would have been a bridesmaid. Felicity would have wanted her to be imo. I thought s3 did a lovely job of highlighting that Oliver was going to hide in a hole, brood and die if he couldn't have Felicity (even though he instigated all of the foolishness) so it just wiped out all his exes for me as if they didn't really matter at all. Haha the Sara and Laurel situation is a hot mess! 1 Link to comment
Midnight Lullaby August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 Felicity is a character that appears on other shows a lot..I guess the writers must enjoy writing her or think she fits well in different shows or want to use her popularity of a bit of all reasons..the thing is it's not that if she stayed only on Arrow the writers would make Iris or other characters they usually don't use in crossovers appear on other shows..they could use them more now or could have had in the past but for whatever reason they choose not to. 5 Link to comment

We’ve certainly entertained the idea countless times ourselves. It’s not for lack of desire. Might Black Siren and White Canary meet? I don’t know. We haven’t broken that story yet. Our docket is full of characters that we know we have to see. We haven’t really been able to get to the ones that we would like to see. Is Sara aware that Black Siren is running around, at least? I would save that question for Marc and the Arrow [writers]. We unfortunately don’t get to get that deep into her backstory before she’s pulled back in, Godfather III style, into the world of being a time traveling captain. DC's Legends of Tomorrow star drops season 3 spoilers – and reveals hopes for the next crossover MORGAN JEFFERY 21 AUGUST 2017http://www.digitalspy.com/tv/dcs-legends-of-tomorrow/news/a836114/legends-of-tomorrow-season-3-spoilers-crossover/ Quote Victor Garber – who plays Martin Stein – told Digital Spy that his character is "questioning everything" in the superhero caper's upcoming third season. "A lot goes on – in his real family life, and his family life on [the Waverider] and he has to choose some things and make some decisions," Garber hinted. "Martin is questioning everything in season 3, which I think is very appropriate – for someone of my age and also of Martin's temperament." * * * "I'm not well-versed in this world that I'm inhabiting – so the most interesting part for me is the human connection," Garber explained. "For me, it's all about what happens between people and so when they introduced Lily, I was very happy about that... and continue to be. "There's a lot more going on this season, that I'm probably not allowed to speak about, but it just gives me something to do. Other than talking about physics – which I don't understand at all, by the way!" * * * Garber told us that he'd love for Martin to share scenes with Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) and the Green Arrow (Stephen Amell) – and that he'd love to share more scenes with The Flash cast, since Stein originated on that show. * * * "I'm in love with Melissa, who plays Supergirl, and I haven't really had much to do with her at all. But when I've just been in the room with her, she's just so enchanting," he said. "And The Flash... that's where I started, so I have a kind of special feeling for all those people, and I'm excited to get back on that set again. Arrow, I've never worked on and I only know Stephen from Comic-Con – we did a crossover together but we had very little to do, but I think he's great. "So I'm excited about all of that that. As exhausting as all of that is [crossing the shows over], and very disruptive to schedules – because everybody's trying to figure out how they're going to shoot their episode that week – it turned out to be a lot of fun."

I honestly can't believe that CW would push BL out of the way like that right off the bat. It makes sense why they aired iZombie in April (its ratings aren't that great - and viewership really suffered by the CW pushing it back that far), but to not let a new series start with the rest of the shows is strange and unfair to Black Lightning which deserves a fighting chance. Unless I'm completely wrong and it's not going to take LoT's position on Tuesdays? Edited August 22, 2017 by wonderwall Link to comment
Starfish35 August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 (edited) Well because I like to make lists.... ;) (Production dates from the links above) Arrow: July 7-April 26 Legends: July 6-February 26 IZombie: August 8-January 18 Life Sentence: August 9-January 12 Riverdale: June 22-March 21 Supergirl: July 6-April 28 Supernatural: July 12-April 19 The 100: August 14-January 29 The Flash: July 4-April 21 9 minutes ago, Velocity23 said: Werent those the midseason and friday shows? Whether it was or not, their production time this year is about two months longer than it was initially reported to be last year for thirteen episodes, so I think 17 episodes is probably a safe guess. 5 minutes ago, wonderwall said: Unless I'm completely wrong and it's not going to take LoT's position on Tuesdays? I'm not sure it's been announced where it's going to go. It was assumed that it would take Legends' place, but it could just as well take Valor's place following Supergirl (especially if Valor crashes and burns as bad as I expect it to).

Velocity23 August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 I wonder if there was a mix up with Legends though? Since it was first reported that Legends would start filming in August. Anyway i have hard time believing LOT will stay after Flash during midseason. Especially with BL premiering and Winter Olympics delaying airing throughout February. LOT is in their 3rd season and they should give BL the proper exposure. Link to comment

This would make more sense than airing BL in April after LoT finishes... 1 Link to comment

Well that's possible too, that they move Legends at midseason. I forgot about Winter Olympics coming up to be honest. Edited August 22, 2017 by Starfish35 Link to comment
Velocity23 August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 At the end of May the paps were saying LOT would start filming in August Link to comment

Velocity23 August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 I have a hard time believing that the data that covers all production teams in Vancouver was wrong just for LOT. But that the mistake was made through the team responsible for LOT. Link to comment
Starfish35 August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 Just now, Velocity23 said: I have a hard time believing that the data that covers all production teams in Vancouver was wrong just for LOT. But that the mistake was made through the team responsible for LOT. I'm sorry - I'm being particularly dense today. :( I'm not getting what you think is incorrect, other than that one pap's tweet saying that Legends would start filming in August. Obviously that is not true - they did start filming in July. So all the other sources that list production dates of July 6 - February 26 can be assumed to be correct, no? What am I missing?
