Crisis on Infinite Earths (Arrowverse Crossover 2019)

CastorTroy

Was delighted to see

Tom Ellis as Lucifer. And just wanted to confirm on imdb and they have Dina Meyer as Oracle.

One part I didn't like was the

Purgatory part. "We must find Oliver quickly, but he won't remember us" 5 seconds later "John! Mia!"
Random dude turns up and says something unusual that Ollie agrees to right away and that's it.

Oh and the Flash switch. Felt like a cop out

On another note, I was reading on geektown that Sky are delaying airing Crisis in the hope that whoever has the Batwoman rights will start showing it soon.

That random dude was

Jim Corrigan who was the host for The Spectre and was asking Oliver to become the new Spectre and save billions of lives. Oliver basically becomes one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse

I know who he was and Constantine knew who was, but Oliver didn't yet he quickly said yes to him. Just felt rushed.

I thought that bit at the start was from the old Birds of Prey show

just looked it up and the actress who played Dinah Lance in that is now Batwoman's sister

Ah I get ya. The way I saw it

Oliver was offered a chance to save everyone and being the self sacrificing hero that he is, he took the offer.

yep. I was thinking that's why they didn't have her in her BoP role. Batwoman is probably too new a show to start having actors playing different roles. That and we already have about 50 canaries. Ashley stop logs the part anyway.

I guess that's the end of the cameos for now since all worlds are gone. Hope we get Rip back and an intro to Booster Gold.

Thinking how funny it would be if we were using spoiler tags to be discussing an appearance from Spoiler

Cryer is is fantastic as Lex.

Agent Coulson

Does Jon Cryer being a Luther then link the Christopher Reeve movies since he played a Luther in Superman 4.

Multiverse?

I must ask, if it's "infinite" earths how can they all be destroyed

Because when the big bang happened...the anti matter undid all the...space timey continuum...everyone lived happily ever after

Understand now?

I prefer to think it links to Hot Shots! where he was Wash Out

He was Lenny the bumbling nephew, he's bloody good as Lex

I really enjoyed the 3 episodes, great mix of action/humour/drama, the CW do a great job of bring the DC characters to the small screen. There's so many plot holes you really have to leave your brain at the door though.

I like the mention of "Crossover" in every episode by different characters.

Yeah I remember last year when The Legends declined it stating that it was the annual crossover

And then what's happens because they declined

I'm glad both remaining episodes will air back to back on the same day and not a day apart so a good 90 minute finale.

Wasn't mad on the first one but enjoyed parts two and three much more - better mix of characters and humour.

So how many shows and more ultimately crossed over, taking into account all the cameos and ones we can be pretty solid about? We can go with:

Arrow
The Flash
Supergirl
Legends of Tomorrow
Batwoman
Black Lightning
Smallville
The Flash ('90s version)
Lucifer
Superman Returns
Titans

Not sure how you'd quite classify

Bruce Ward's cameo or Kevin Conroy's since they weren't linked to any of their original material in quite the same way

Agent Coulson

Watchmen billboard to go with Supergirl one.

How did

Tim Burton's Batman feature?

I didn't know 'Birds of Prey' - just saw they used actors afterwards.

The quiz master in the bar with Ray and Sara was Arthur from The Tick.

Well it was the actor who played him, but I don't think he was playing the character of Arthur. He didn't stumble enough through the questions if he was meant to be him

Agent Coulson

I'm taking it as cannon now. :P
