Is there going to be a Flash crossover episode?

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I believe Grant is confirmed for an episode further down the line.

I saw a set pic of Victor Garber and Tom Cavanaugh so maybe but I can't find it so I feel like I dreamt it.

Short-haired Vixen is sexiest Vixen. I was kinda hoping this was how she looked when she appeared on Arrow.

Enjoyed this weeks episode of Legends of Prison Break, Ollie with that fake beard was crap though.

So in 15 years of Star City turning to shit, they still can't call Barry, huh?

Or Vixen, Cisco, Wells 2, ARGUS, The League, Katana, etc, etc, etc.

Or Supergirl.
Wrong universe.
Barry disappears in 2024. Explained on top of the page even.

Maybe you're in the wrong universe.
Right, but 15 years prior to 2046 is 2021, so they still had three years to call him.
EDIT: Or Jay(s). There's your army.

Just checked and found that the first episode is off of Hulu and the CW site. Is there no hope on getting in on this show now?

Okay I wasn't feeling this episode until the conversation with Conner and Oliver. There's a moment where Rip just sort of raises his eyebrows in the background while Conner is going "because I couldn't save my father and I don't deserve his name" that completely communicated "oh jesus what drama is this now?"

Didn't like this episode nearly as much as I thought I would. Prolly cuz amell is still a pretty mediocre actor and they really half assed old-oliver. All the way down to the hilarious beard haha
Cold and Heatwave stuff was gold though. Loved the stuff with those two and his gang
Oh and haha wow these guys really love shitting up deathstroke. His son is a goof

I mean, how are they all dead but Ollie survives? And who killed them? Lame ass Dickstroke jr?
LOL. I can't even picture it because of how stupid the idea is...
My only issue when thinking about last night's ep is basically this....
Apparently no matter what happens to Star City in upcoming seasons (and the current with Damien Darhk)... None of these events succeed in bringing down the city until Grant Wilson shows up.
I mean they couldn't anyway... hero show and all, but that's just something that was gnawing at the back of my mind at work today, lol

Yeah, I do agree that the idea is silly and dumb. Would have been more interesting if it was actually Slade instead. Then I could more see it.
I like to think that they weren't defeated by Deathstroke Jr, but some other force years before that in a big uprising. And that Deathstroke Jr only took advantage of the aftermath.
It is possible to find logical reasons for most of them, with the most simple one being that a 61-year old Oliver Queen is younger than most of them. Detailed reasons:
Vixen and Constantine have their own problems. They don't seem eager to turn up in Star unannounced.
Cisco has no fighting superpowers for the moment.
Wells 2 would be 83 based on Tom C. age
ARGUS was going to nuke Star City the last time a Wilson conquered it.
The League is dead.
Katana would be 70 if she is as old as the Maseo actor. Rila's age is not on Wikipedia.

In my mind, Slade helped Grant take over the city. But Oliver at least managed to take him down or he left to kill another hero with Joe.
Surprisingly, Atom didn't fuck up this week. But Martin Stein did.
Also, as a bonus from the LoT synopsis of this week....

Oliver has leading man protection. Reverse Flash even told him he's not dying anytime soon.
And I think only Diggle and Lance are confirmed dead, the rest are "gone" and Felicity has "left". Either way there's a huge time gap so anything could happen.

Yeah, they should just make a show about Cold and Heatwave breaking in and out of prisons.

I don't wanna drop arrow spoilers in here due to not knowing who's watching what now but between amell's reaction during a major moment at the end of this week's arrow and old man oliver he is phoning it in big time. It's like he's not even there haha. No fucks given.
It's night and day when you watch flash and see grant gustin killing it every week.
Sorry for the bump. But I just went through dcw week today

In defense of the Legends episode he only had 2 days to shoot all of his scenes so there wasn't much time for him to really get a feel for Old Man Ollie

The second they land in 2016, Lyla drafts them into the Suicide Squad spinoff.
I don't think Amell has a great acting range to draw upon. Through multiple seasons of Arrow can you honestly see a difference between happy,brooding or angry Oliver?
I remember seeing him in Vampire Diaries his character might as well have been Oliver that also happened to be a werewolf.
His range is also entirely dependent on how the character is written. If he's thrown a shitty script and lines, he has to deal with it. He's definitely gotten much better since S1 though, just watch the confrontation between him and Lance from earlier this season.
People talk about flying cars, but if there is one thing people never get EVEN CLOSE to get it right in future movies is fashion
Agreed.
It's acting him a lot to fucking act? C'mon now...
The writing team can only get so much blame, such as making Old Oliver basically sound like act like young Oliver but even a bad script can be elevated by a good actor. Amell just acted the same as regular Oliver with a modified voice, even his mannerisms were that of a young man. It was just plain terrible.
I came for Batman Beyond Oliver Queen, I got the same Oliver I've had for four seasons with spray painted hair and a bad fake beard.

I feel like Amell has been trying to play this awkward and emotionally broken character for ages but he simply doesn't have the acting chops for it. He's certainly got passion for the character and the universe tho, that's for sure.
And yes, always impressed with Grant. I found that particular event a bit heavy handed but he sold it.
He has done about a year of broadway. Aside from that glee is his only real reference.
'It's asking him a lot to fucking act.'
Given the fact that he regularly works 12+ hour days nine months of the year, has a young kid, has a side business, regularly does conventions, and still agreed to take time out from his busy schedule to guest star on another TV show as an older version of Oliver Queen? Yeah, I'd say it was a bit much to expect a stunning performance.
