Of course, it's also possible that The CW's "Crisis on Earth-X" is a little fatigued by viewers tired by either superhero content on the whole, or comic book media that feels too similar to something else. This year's event couldn't top the ratings of the 2016 Arrowverse crossover , and according to TVLine , only averaged 2.7 million viewers/0.9 rating compared to last year's 3.7 million/1.3 rating - though those numbers could change as fans tune into the shows on streaming services in the coming week. Undoubtedly, though, more people went to theaters to see Justice League than tuned into The CW to watch Crisis on Eart
A highly stylized retelling of the classic King Arthur story, Guy Ritchie is back in the director's chair for this epic period piece starring Charlie Hunnam ( Sons of Anarchy, Pacific Rim ) and Ritchie regular, Jude Law. This one's been in development a while and the trailer mixes some interesting genres but this director and this cast rarely disappoints so we're in for this fantastic period epic - one of few coming in 2
In "Legends of Yesterday", written by Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg, and Aaron and Todd Helbing, a strange killer comes to Central City to hunt down Kendra Saunders (Ciara Renée), forcing Barry (Grant Gustin) to seek out Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) and his Team Arrow for help. The emergence of a winged warrior who claims to have the answers only complicates things, setting up a villain the likes of which neither Barry nor Oliver has faced bef
The creative teams behind The CW's DC shows have continually pushed themselves to exceed expectations each year and do something they've never done before - and something no other superhero TV series has done before. The result is that each Arrowverse crossover feels fresh and new. While there are undoubtedly certain connective threads that weave through each event, the different villains and storylines push the envelopes of each series in the shared TV universe. The Arrowverse shows can sometimes get stuck in ruts, with the shows arguably reusing similar villains or storylines, even with only a handful of seasons under their belts in some cases. But, the crossovers continue to evolve and force The CW's DC lineup to mix things up in a way that feels fresh, while not messing with the core DNA of any ser
If there's one compliment that can be paid to the braintrust behind **The Flash ** , Arrow and the upcoming Legends of Tomorrow , it's that they aren't afraid of taking on the tasks of universe-building that would frighten off other production teams. It's because of that fact that this week's two-part crossover between their headlining stars begins with full reveal of not one, but three new DC Comics characters (on top of continuing each show's storylines). The result is an episode dripping with fan service - but one that ultimately has far too many masters to serve to ever hope of doing it w
As much as the presence of The Flash, Green Arrow, Hawkgirl, Hawkman, Speedy and Vibe probably should feel like the small screen Justice League Amell promised so long ago - and technically, is - it's hard to avoid the feeling that The CW and the producers are planting more seeds than they're reaping. Again, the sheer number of plots at work in the single episode is to blame, meaning the only chance at success is to give each their due time on the screen, and giving up any attempt to make any of them truly profo

Seeing the cast of Arrow break out of their angsty brooding is always welcome (if, quite frankly, out of character considering the plot they're pulled directly out of). But as entertaining as the laughs or novel moments may be, they're fleeting. Fans are outright told to expect fireworks with a crossover, and while "Legends of Today" serves a larger purpose than the previous crossovers, we doubt fans were hoping the biggest payoff of seeing their heroes unite would be comedic rel

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft continues to have great success in the eSports scene, with tournaments for top players getting held just about every weekend and some streamers on Twitch regularly bringing in tens of thousands of viewers. Blizzard is currently handing out qualifying points for this year's Hearthstone World Championship at special events and through the monthly seasonal results. While last year did have a Hearthstone World Championship, 2015 is the first time Blizzard has created a year-long path to Blizzcon. It's created opportunity for a lot new players to try and get in on the action, but it now seems that at least a few gamers got a little too overzeal
