The unexpected ice slide with Frost, Zari, and Vixen was delightfully comic book-y.

Only Tom Cavanaugh could sell the line-reading so well.
The climactic fight in the fourth episode rather had me bouncing around with glee - especially since they got a bunch more people involved that weren’t there in the previous ones (like Vixen, Zari, Ray, and Nate).
I expected a lot of things from this crossover, but not that the finale would have me tearing up at several points, for a variety of well-earned moments: Seeing a Leo(nard) Snart who is well and truly happy and in love; Russell Tovey getting some superhero shine; and that the death (for now?) of Martin was treated…
I’m not sure what everyone has been complaining about - I thoroughly enjoyed this Justice League movie.
Loved Wells telling Supergirl that she needed to fly the Evil version “Up...up and away.” Before she blew up.
THANK YOU for finally abandoning the conceit that this is “not a regular episode” that the three other reviewers used as an excuse for knocking off points.
I didn’t like that either, I was really hoping she was going to freeze his arm solid and break it off.
Last year, each show’s segment focused mainly in the characters from that show. This year, that is not the case. It’s truly mixed throughout. You might be better off skipping the episode entirely if you’re not going to watch the other ones.
I was hoping there would be more Crisis On Earth-X and not as much Arrow, but there was still too much Arrow. You could feel the excitement of the first hour deflate as the camera angles and lighting grew more dull, and everybody lapsed into fake emotional drama. Bleh.
Counterpoint: Wells Thawne is awesome.
“Just a quick reminder! Superspeed! I don’t have it!”
Teaming up with nazis to ruin Barry’s wedding is a very thawne thing to do...
I hate when previously powerful villains get good-guy-itis and suddenly become much weaker in battles. Killer Frost could easily have just killed Dark Arrow, but instead is just fended off by one electrical charge? (and wouldn’t that charge have also hit evil Ollie too, since it was through ice/water that was covering…
Oliver is way more fun around Kara and Barry
Thawne indicates that they’re actually after two goals: getting Nazi Kara a new heart is sort of a side-mission during their overall invasion strategy.
Gotta say that compared to last year’s crossover, this one is so much more fun. I usually don’t watch Arrow or Legends - Started with Supergirl and got into The Flash after Grant Gustin’s charming turn on Supergirl S1. Last year, I watched the crossover eps of the two shows I normally watch, but felt no desire to…
I didn’t understand how evil Oliver overcame Killer Frost’s powers so quickly. Some kind of alt-Reich tech?
Thawne is Barry’s arch nemesis. Like the joker or lex luthor, he’ll always comeback. Plus time travel and parallel worlds...
So... does kryptonite exist in this universe?
