Gotta say he is right on that. Really reminds me of Ian McKellen on the set of The Hobbit (although I don't know the specifics, acting opposite tennis balls is not the reason you become an actor)

@MalseMarcel - yeah the approach to how the shorter races was done changed between lotr and the hobbit. In lotr, it was mostly perspective shots then double when they could. Very rarely using cgi. In the hobbit basically everything is effects heavy.

Wasn't a fan of his death scene (first one). Felt weird, awkward. Maybe this is why.

Another reason to be disappointed with the crossover. I wasn't a fan of Crisis like I hoped I'd be. Too much cramming, not enough substance.

I think he should have died in episode 2 (dying at the end of the first episode was too fast) and then died again in episode 5. But overall his deaths weren't as impactful as I was hoping, especially the second one.

@HeavyMetal4Life - that would have been cool, but then we loose screen time for earth prime

@dracula - you have him die at the beginning of the episode, with the big battle being resolved in the first 5 or so minutes. Then you spend the last 30 with Earth-Prime.

Props to Amell for speaking his mind. He put a lot of effort into the role and what they did was messed up.

Hehehe, well... that's not exactly the ideal kind of interview to be giving when your series of eight years is wrapping up. Now I'm just picturing the BTS of that scene and Amell is channeling about a quarter of the diva of Bale.

"I'm the [frick]ing Green Arrow, and I'm [frick]ing dying over here! And you want me to act opposite a [frick]ing tennis ball on a stick?! You [frick]ing amateurs! I'm the [frick]ing Green Arrow, mother[frick]ers!"

He'll be back, but he definitely needs a vacation.

Something that annoys me about Crisis: Why is Superman on the side instead of in the middle. I know Supes hasn't had the biggest role in the CW shows. But this is the literal Justice League! Everyone knows Superman stands in the middle.

@Nightwing1015 - But this is the literal Justice League!

It's an Elseworld Justice League.

Actually, it's probably an Elseworld Superfriends, but Elseworld is the emphasis here.

@Reeds2Much - And yet it so clearly attempts to recreate the mainstream league even to the point of bringing in the Hall of Justice and getting obvious discount versions of the characters (Batwoman)

Superman is the leader of the league in basically every version anyway. If the Arrowverse was really "elseworlds" it wouldn't borrow from mainstream Supergirl and Flash comics so often. They are adaptations of the mainstream version of the DC Universe. I wouldn't class it as elseworlds. By that logic you could excuse every creative choice the DCEU has made on the basis that it is an "elseworlds" story.

The DCEU, the MCU, most of Sony's stuff. All Elseworlds.
