It's mostly a combination of the Deconstruction elements and the use of plot devices like the Codex. There's also the tendency for other characters to start waxing philosophically about Superman's destiny to the detriment of whatever character they previously had, most infamously in the case of Pa Kent.
In the case of Arrow, I was more lenient with the Nolanfication of GA if only because there was a fairly lengthy and well received period in the comics where he moved into Darker and Edgier territory.
Firestorm (Ronnie Raymond) confirmed
. He's being played by Stephen Amell's cousin, Robbie.

Please help out our The History Of Video Games page.On Arrow? I thought the plan was "save the crazy powers for the Flash show". And Firestorm is the textbook definition of crazy powers.
I'm Charlie Owens, good night and good luck. PSNID: CEOIII 1117I thought that article pretty clearly stated that it was The Flash that was getting Firestorm.
In any case it's awesome news, since Smallville totally missed out on giving Firestorm his/their live action debut. Hopefully Flash won't waste any chances with other DC heroes who desperately need it, like the Doom Patrol members, certain New Teen Titans members, and... I need some more time to think about this.
I'm still not giving up hope about Hal Jordan here or Arrow, especially with that leaked information about DC references.

I'm a moron, resume your lives.

We Are With You Zack Snyder
Episode 2
gets an official title.
Episode 2 is titled "Fastest Man Alive" and it is written by Greg Berlanti & Andrew Kreisberg and the teleplay comes from Andrew Kreisberg & Geoff Johns. David Nutter is also directing it.
Hint at the villain for Episode 2
Now, if I can interest you in some Episode 2 scoop, I am hearing that the second metahuman The Flash will face off against might make us all feel a bit… well, Mist-y.

to play Captain Cold in Episode 4.

I don't know with the Arrow universe they use both pre and post New 52 for the characters.
Weather Wizard was basically the post New 52 version in terms of having powers.
Captain Cold could still be pre-New 52.
Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre Adventure

I still can't see any "Batmanification" that people apparently see in Man of Steel.
