History Awesome / CrisisOnEarthX

** A brief bit has Flash and Reverse Flash fighting while it looks like everyone around them is frozen in place. Later, they run up the sides of two buildings and leap through the air at each other. And this time, Barry is quite decisively superior that Eobard bails.

* Oliver, Barry, Sara, Jax, Stein and Alex are about to be executed when who comes to their rescue? The Earth-X doppleganger of Leonard Snart.

** And then somehow, Oliver-X not only beats them all himself but locks them all up and escape with what he needed...[[OffScreenMomentOfAwesome all off-screen.]]

* Supergirl, Flash and Green Arrow working together and preventing the collapse of the scaffolding at a construction site.

* The Nazis are running rampant in Central City, killing anyone in their path...and then our heroes do a PowerWalk into daylight. As they stand shoulder to shoulder, The Ray and Supergirl fly over them as Killer Frost enters on an ice slide.

** Special mention has to go to the cool slow-motion shot of Oliver arrow's arrowhead bursting open to reveal the Kryptonite. Made even sweeter by Overgirl Tempting Fate by boasting of her invulnerability.

* The Ray also makes his live action debut and proceeds to blast the Earth-X mooks.
* One for a villain: impersonating the event's ArcVillain (his doppelganger) was Oliver's own idea, and he might have pulled it off, until Kommandant Lance has a contingency prepared ''[[CrazyPrepared in case]]'' his Fuhrer was actually an impostor.

* On Earth One Felicity and Iris work together to try and free Kara from being operated on. They even knock out two Nazis on their own!
** One has to give it to Felicity; when threatened with death by Reverse-Flash to turn the power back on so they can resume the operation, Felicity refuses and is willing to die until Kara tells her to give him the code to activate the power again.

* The Earth-X invaders sorely underestimated their targets, [[WhatAnIdiot attacking]] a hero's wedding. All they had was strength in numbers and the element of surprise, which didn't actually do much in the villains' favor.

[[folder:General/Meta]]

* The revelation that Prometheus is the Earth-X version of Tommy Merlyn was a true shock. The producers were brilliant hiding it, not even revealing that Colin Donnell was taking part in this at all.
* General consensus in almost all the critic reviews is that they compared this to ''Film/JusticeLeague2017''...and the smaller-budget TV event is considered the ''superior'' one.
* The kiss between Leo Snart and Ray Terrill, not only becase it's a same sex kiss, but because both are played by gay actors. Wentworth Miller even noted at a convention that Leo was a character very close to his heart because he is queer.

-->'''Supergirl''': [[Film/SupermanII General. Would you care to step outside?]]

* The special's opening logo, mixing together the themes of the four shows in a nice way and the classic DC "Crisis" font.

* Let's all start with the mere premise, the multitude of heroes of the Arrowverse going up against Nazis.

** A brief bit has Flash and Reverse Flash fighting while it looks like everyone around them is frozen in place. Later, they run up the sides of two buildings and leap through the air at each other.

* Doubles as a TearJerker but [[spoiler: Professor Stein using the last of his strength to open the gate even if it means his death. As a Jewish man he knows the Nazis can't be allowed to win and thus sacrifices his life to ensure his team and friends will take the bastards down.]]

* The Legends, Team Arrow and the S.T.A.R. Labs crew [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill combining their streams of energy]] to make Metallo explode. [[spoiler:Which also includes the LastDance for Firestorm.]]

** [[spoiler: Supergirl flying an overloading Overgirl into low orbit so she can explode safely. And when Kara is knocked out and falls back to Earth, she's caught at the last second by Steel.]]
** [[spoiler: Oliver putting down the Fuhrer with an arrow to the heart.]]

** Killer Frost uses an ice slide to bring Vixen and Zari onto the Nazi ship, with Zari using her power to propel them like a rocket.
