Spoilered in case you guys didn't see the end of Arrow S3 or the beginning of S4:
Palmer is legally dead since he was declared so when he blew up his offices in Star City. When team Arrow finally rescued him from Darhk he opted to stay that way, so technically he's still dead to the world around him.

Snart also didn't build the freeze gun, that was Cisco.

He did take it apart and rebuild it right before he recruited Linc the Sink in season 1

I wonder if (either in LoT or maybe in future seasons of The Flash) we'll ever see them explore Firestorm's weirder powers. I really only remember him from the 80s Justice League cartoons, but he can like transform matter on the atomic level, which is a neat power IMO.


To be fair, he was beaten by somewhere between 4 and 7 heroes (in the do-over the rest of the Arrow gang shows up to fight, right?), the key 2 heroes of Green Arrow and Flash (who for all intents and purposes are the Batman and Superman of the CW universe) did a lot of heavy lifting, and even then the good guys needed a do-over because the first time they tried to stop him they screwed up and got like all of Central City nuked. I'm not in love w/ Savage because so far we haven't seen anywhere near the charisma of Barrowman or Cavanaugh here....but luckily the show is plenty loaded with fun and charming heroes, so a de-emphasized villain is alright by me.

There was a deleted scene from the season 1 finale that shows Ronnie/Stein Firestorm turning a thermometer into a flower for Caitlin, so they can't say they wouldn't be able to.

You'd figure they'd scoop him up in a baggie or something but nope.

Yeah, a while ago they put out a behind the scenes thing for Arrow talking about how they never actually combine a real bow and arrow while filming. The scenes where an arrow is fired is always CG and for scenes where they have an arrow drawn but are talking they have a prop that is an arrow attached to the bow.

Of course back in the day they didn't have these big city "special effects" so they actually were shooting at people with arrows and guns. They just relied on experts to hopefully not actually hit the actors.

What about the boxing glove arrow scene? I remember them doing a thing about that one where they originally planned for Ollie to hit it off a table but then swapped to the "lemme stab the glove with an arrow and fire it from there."

Shockingly satisfying finale. I wonder if Flash and Arrow will have good fina-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I have faith in Flash. Arrow, not so much (especially given the previews for it; at least Flash has proper city-wide destruction)

HAhahahahAHaa okay I hope you're all sitting down for this.

So, basically, we're getting Vixen for next season, except they can't get the Vixen actress, so instead of recasting the character of Mari McCabe, we're getting another Vixen from the past instead, who's an entirely new character.

I don't see any problem with this. Better than recasting and half-assing the explanation. And Megalyn E.K. is still doing the voice on the animated series as well.

Or maybe they haven't started filming yet???

It's not a movie, they usually film a few episodes ahead of the live releases. Arrow and Flash do it too.

I don't think Letscher's Thawne is as good as uhhh... whatever the guy who plays Wells is named, but I'd love to see more of him so he has a chance to put a distinct take on the character.

We've only seen him perform the role twice, once at the end of season 1 (in a very very short appearance), and a bit part in season 2. I don't think that's probably a good metric to measure him by considering that Cavanagh had a whole season to build up his version of Thawne/Wells.

Is Jay Garrick gonna show up in the JSA? I can't imagine a Justice Society without a Lantern or a Flash. Given that the LoT team already have an Atom, that leaves Fate and Spectre as the only characters I can remember.

I assumed that part of the reason a Lantern hadn't shown up yet in any show was because animating those green constructs is expensive. But if they could do Grodd and King Shark they can probably afford Alan Scott for an ep or two.

Not sure if I heard it right, but I think JWS was cast as DCTVU regular.

Not a remake. A sequel.

gently caress MAN, putting Lescher, Barrowman, AND McDonough on the same team, on the same show, is probably the greatest loving thing DC has ever done.
