That's what they made Savitar look like? Well that's disappointing.

I'll take it over his weird inverted-T-shirt comics costume.

Was expecting a cool shirtless dude. Was disappointed. I mean, he still looked like pretty decent CGI, but that's kinda lame cause they'll obviously be showing less of him to deal with budget.

If this season doesn't culminate in some sort of speedster gurren lagann team up bullshit the writers have failed this show.

It's just kind of predictable that the main villain is an even faster and scarier looking villain with a new lightning color. By next season the villain will be a literal 10ft tall CGI demon with super speed and let's say green lightning (called Speed Demon obviously). I can't even extrapolate 2 seasons from now...

Yeah I think what's being hinted at is some kind of power within the stone itself. Like my guess was they were gonna unmask Alchemy and it would be Julian but that would be a red herring because he was possessed by the stone

I figured that was part of the husking process. He'll be on hold for a few episodes while they do the crossover then come out and molt.

I hope they have a moist hide box for him to crawl into.

PSST. HEY, CW! This would be an excellent excuse for him to mysteriously transform into a different actor. Just saying. :ninja:

I really believe in my heart we're going to end up with Good Killer Frost. Maybe they'll rename her Snow or something instead. (I mean I know that's the point of her real name but it's right there.)

I just want Kaitlyn to be an awesome superhero is that so much to ask :saddowns:

Mostly he's got a bit of a weird tone in his voice due to being Australian -- I think most of the Aussie CW actors share the same vocal coach, and they end up sounding a bit samey. It's a bit of a deep, grumbly tone. Maybe I only recognise it because I'm Australian, I dunno.

Huh. Well, I never would have guessed he was actually Australian, so there you go. The guy's perfectly fine for a network TV actor on a hokey genre show. I don't know what everyone's getting all agitated about.

I liked Wally pointing out that Barry is a gently caress up. I also liked Iris laying him out with 1 punch. Wally serves a useful purpose on the show.

This is actually possible; and could be much worse:

"Though I hadn’t touched the dashboard, the vents in the Jeep Cherokee started blasting cold air at the maximum setting, chilling the sweat on my back through the in-seat climate control system. Next the radio switched to the local hip hop station and began blaring Skee-lo at full volume. I spun the control knob left and hit the power button, to no avail. Then the windshield wipers turned on, and wiper fluid blurred the glass."

I hope we get a villain that can be defeated by hip-hop next.

Gustin has a lot of charisma and is a lovable dork lead. I don't really think the two are that comparable. Lonsdale's demeanor actually reminds me more of Amell, but I'm betting it's likely to be the direction/writing. Sullen teen boy is pretty boring to me, just as emo Barry was.
