Blurb about Petition:
The CW's Arrow has been an instant hit to many of the shows now devoted fans, not only has it managed to capture quite a large audience, but the show, which is only a mere halfway through its second season has already inspired a spinoff series for "The Flash", which is, in theory set to debut next fall alongside Arrow. In comparison to, for example, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, DC is unfortunately very far behind. Marvel has been able to crank out multiple films per year, whereas DC has only recently started to build their cinematic universe with "Man of Steel" (in 2013). What better way to keep fans interested in this "new and unheard of" universe than to continue its action on screen, much like Marvel attempted to do with Agents of SHIELD, (which unfortunately for them isn't receiving the ratings they would seem to want), BUT unlike Agents of Shield, Arrow already has a large fan base, AND also has the grittier, tougher universe that Man of Steel introduced. Also, although many were originally opposed to the casting of Grant Gustin as fan favorite Barry Allen, even more fans were delighted by his performance, and although he may seem young many believe he could stand up there with the likes of Cavil, Affleck, Gadot and Amell. So with that all said and done, I believe that ARROW and its characters should share a universe with the rest of DC's heroes introduced in Man of Steel and onwards.



On a side note, if this petition does make some noise in the WB Studios, or among the people at the CW there are to side notes i would like to make.

The first is that Stephan Amell (who plays Oliver Queen on Arrow) would fit seemlessly into the DC Cinematic Universe, and that being said I may add that I have never seen a celebrity so devoted to his fans, and for that I praise you Mister Amell.

Secondly, I would like to share a popular fan theory that I have seen numerous times online as a means of explaining events in Arrow and how they would "explain" the alien invasion seen in Man of Steel. This theory is that, in either the season 2 or season 3 finale, all of the heroes (on "Team Arrow") are seen in the "Arrow Cave" in the shows closing minutes, when out of the blue all lights shut off and Zods message from Man of Steel appears on the screen, with that ending the season, and the following season picking up some time later where the events of Man of Steel have sunk in.

I understand why you want this to happen, but it's unnecessary.
'Arrow' has done an incredible job, and is validated by it's fanbase and the writers' love for the show itself.
It really looks like you just need WB's approval, like the Catholic Church canonizing a saint. It doesn't need further validation. Let it be.

Why do people want this? It will just limit the show.

Oh God no. He is trash. Let's not taint the DC cinematic universe with some CW actor. Ugh. And of course he so "devoted" to his fans. He needs them to keep watching the show it's called PR 101.

Firstly, that Gadot edit sucks and secondly... I as sure as shit won't be voting for it. Arrow is alright but Amell and that blonde woman playing Canary suuuuck if you ask me.

There's too many good things in Arrow though that could be made much better in films though. However, I really like their version of Slade. Aside from that blonde's atrocious acting in the recent episode and Amell's awkwardness, he was really good. I don't even give a shit he's an Australian and he's vastly different from the source.

I dont see Arrow happening in the DCCU. I think Arrow and the DCCU should be kept separate.

No thanks I want an actor who is worthy of being in one of the biggest movies/good character story wirter to get a cinematic set of the DC heroes. Amell and his show are fine for tv standards.

Arrow is so much better than Man of Steel, so I don't want them connected because I don't want the movies to [frick] with Arrow.
