I once attended an advance screening of the first Kick-rear end film. If you didn't give them a phone as you walked in they didn't allow you access. And it was a surprise screening so nobody could have thought to bring a spare phone and record footage. Some places are hardcore about that poo poo.

What if you're a luddite and don't have a cell phone?

Maybe I should have more faith in people I don't think there's any way I'm giving a bunch of random kids at a movie theare my 600 dollar cell phone so I could watch a movie early.

I'm not surprised that footage didn't leak - that stuff is locked up tight and monitored VERY securely during the screening.

But a bunch of impassioned Arrow and Flash fans, and not a single one gabs to a friend on the tumblrverse? Even with them signing NDAs, that is impressive.

One of my favourite Dr Who stories is that a big spoiler of an episode remained unspoiled because at a preview screening Matt Smith asked everyone really nicely to keep it hidden. No NDAs. Just the lead asking politely. And no-one did leak it

Certainly lends more credit to the theory that the Flash pilot was leaked on purpose

At least they didn't heavyhandedly rewrite the Flash pilot.

Very psyched for the crossover, looking forward to seeing Ollie testing Barrys powers!

The Constantine screener and aired pilot are identical for the first 3/4. It's different on the rooftop slightly and then the second to last scene.

Yeah, and that last 1/4 is heavily-handedly rewritten. They had to make some kind of change because they didn't have the same actress any more, sure, but the way in which they chose to change it was absolutely awful. Put a really awful taste in my mouth.

Eh, it's more like they edited it with a blender. Her firing was pretty sudden and I'm sure she didn't want to come back for 30 seconds of screen time.

Yeah it was cool, but relies on there being a whole bunch of accurate data out there about the times at which the Arrow showed up to scenes...which is where it falls apart

Well, that part would work if he hacked into a police database. I don't remember if they said anything that would rule that out or not though.

I am starting to think that the CW just has spare Amell's in cold storage somewhere and when they need a new actor for anything they just thaw one out and put him in front of a camera, because there are now 4 Amell's on CW now.

You've got his cousins 1 who is on The Flash or will be, 1 who is in his own show, you've got Stephen himself, and then one of them is on one of those Vampire shows but I can't remember which one like Diary or something like that has a Amell in it.

Robbie was on Tomorrow People & Flash, and the one that was on Vampire Diaries was Stephen himself.

Annnnd finally got all caught up. My initial thoughts? If they're just cribbing the cast of Spartacus, I wish they'd hire the fight coordinator as well. The fight choreography in Arrow is extremely lacking. Apparently everyone in the city was trained by the same person who spent a lot of time worrying about how to spin someone to the ground with your legs.
