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 like Arrow because it is really good TELEVISION. none of it is on par with film."

Of course, cause it's not a par with big-budget film; cause it's on TELEVISION. 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' isn't on par with the big-budget movies it's related with cause it's on TELEVISION. Everything said against the DC/CW show's and DC/WB films becoming connected is unsupported by the shows/plan for the shows themselves. A producer/writer for 'A R R O W' said that the show's about Oliver Queen development from "Emotionally beaten: The Hood/Arrow" to the "Emotionally healed: Green Arrow" that is of the comics. If the show didn't have these altered things (To be more different from 'Smallville's Green Arrow) and added characters the show wouldn't have as much potential seasons. These doesnt make its potential relation to the films less appropriate. And if 'Flash' has 1 of the awesomest Flash portrayals we've ever seen, we'll ALREADY know what we're getting in to if this Barry Allen's for 'Justice League' (Film).

Agents of SHIELD has a larger fan base and ratings then Arrow. Grow up and stop hating on the show to make awful Arrow look better.

Arrow is the better show, I'm happy some people enjoy Agents Of SHIELD - all of this kind of thing is subjective. I myself much prefer Arrow, its more mature, more gritty, it doesn't rely on name dropping & it doesn't do what is expected of it. Great show & I am a huge supporter of bringing the Arrowverse into the wider DCCU.

Absolutly no logical reason in why the DC/CW shows and DC/WB films shouldn't connect. (For example) If the show's Oliver Queen appears in the 'Man of Steel' 2quel, he can appear on a t-v screen addressing something involved with Queen Consolidated and simply seeing that'd remind us about 'A R R O W''s awesomeness. But at the time we'll see a different/strictly movie universe Green Arrow, we'd be 7-8 years older! But if they become connected, we could simply wait 2-3 years to see him, at some big or small level, in 'J U S T I C E L E A G U E' (2016-2017). If Hal Jordan shall appear in 'A R R O W' (Which Marc Guggenheim said is likely), we'd also *already* know what kind of Harold Jordan/Green Lantern we're getting in to (Hal AND John Stewart could appear in 'JL' (Film) which happened in comics) And again, if CW's 'Flash' is AWESOME we'd also *already* know what kind of Flash we're getting into when watching 'JL'. EVERYTHING about a connection is positive.

I think that Arrow is so much better and further ahead of the movies and I don't want them connected because I think that the movies would [frick] up the show.
