I haven't regularly watched any of these shows in a while, but I watched this whole Crisis event and... wow they're all REALLY bad. How can the entirety of the 'fights' in these episodes be against stupid CGI ghosts? This entire event felt so low effort and cheap/janky/cheesy as all hell. I enjoyed hate watching it, I guess, but wow was every one of these episodes horrible as an actual episode of a TV show

Didn't The Ray die in his lover's arms? Or am I misremembering an old crossover?

Dean Cain Superman also didn't show. For unfortunately unfortunate reasons. ![]() Dunno if it was mentioned here, but I love how it seems that the Ezra Miller Barry hadn't come up with a codename yet, but will in fact now be calling himself the Flash after having met an alternate universe Flash. Which is just so very fitting, considering original comics Barry also named himself after an (at the time) alternate universe Flash! ( ![]()

I know at least 3 people that were upset Miller and Guston didn't just start making out. They probably did ask someone from Gotham to appear, even briefly, but they probably couldn't do it or didn't want to. Though I have a hard time thinking Donal Logue would have been hard to get.

Have Spector grunt and flash look very confused. Also Felicity is searching for Oliver worldwide. Using a specter detector.

It also fits the kind of silliness like when season 1 Barry decided to change his logo to have a white background after seeing a future version of himself.

Rhyno posted:We knew the show runners were going to be allowed to use Crisis to retcon away things, that could be one of them. Apparently chilling in the "didn't even care to show up" room with Iris. Also, can someone explain for my stupid brain? The last 2 eps basically nail down the melding of Earth prime. One earth. But then the end narration shows all these other earths. Isn't there just one universe now? Or was it just a melding of all the Paragon universes but there's still a ton out there???

All(*) the shows on the CW take place in the same universe now. Other shows and movies based on DC characters are in different universes. (*) except for Stargirl because it can't be that easy.

Poor Black Lightning, he doesn't give a gently caress about any of these people and has to attend funerals for people he never met, now he's roped into this universe's drama. Just let the man go home to his girls.

Seeing either of them have to try and deal with Kara pre-Crisis would've been funny, now though they probably both have kryptonite stashed somewhere.

Yeeeah being with the Superfriends is going to be Jefferson's relaxing downtime. And...y'know, I joke, but that's actually, literally how it's supposed to be. The JL is not just supposed to be a task force, it's also a support group. It's where the heroes go to hang with their friends and have adventures saving the world. The world needs the League but the Leaguers need each other as well. Most incarnations of the JL understands this...hell, even the movie got this part right. Speaking of which, I also quite like that Sara Lance is now pretty much the definitive, de facto "Black Canary" analogue for this world. She was always technically White Canary, of course, and still is, but..."White Canary" always felt a bit to me like a made-up backup consolation prize for the actual coveted iconic Black Canary codename. Even now, that role is still sorta vague and contested and up-in-the-air, what with the upcoming spinoff splitting the role to actual multiple Canaries. But now Sara is the one on the Justice League. She's the the bona fide real deal superhero, the one who's gonna be calling shots with the other premiere protectors of the planet. She might not be literally named Dinah or Black Canary, but she's filling comic book Dinah Lance's boots in ways that the other Canaries won't. And she deserves to. The character has been through a hell of a journey.

White Canary was more an invention for Legends wasn't it? When she first showed up on Arrow she was either Canary or Black Canary, I am pretty sure. That's why Laurel took the name.

Yeah, IIRC she was BC, then died, then Laurel was BC, then Sarah came back in time for Legends to scoop her up, and her goodbye scene with Laurel was "well we can't have two Black Canaries so I made you this" cue WC suit. Or I just made that up, haven't checked recently.

Honestly, Tobias is hyper competent and terrifying, but he’s also goofy as poo poo so him showing up on Flash or Legends to cause problems is quite believable now.
