lotus circle posted:The EPs mentioned that Thawne's reason for wanting the Spear of Destiny is that he's not a "whole" person, and what that exactly means will be explained in episode 10. I think what they'll go for is that the Eobard on LOT is a split version of the Eobard from Flash S1, and he needs the spear to come back to full power. Well he is the flashpoint off-shoot so changing reality with the spear seems to be his way out of his own untimely death at the hands of Eddie un-making him. Still doesn't explain how he's running all over time when the original reverse flash was completely incapable of that after the murder. Not that I really care, this show, in contrast to the Flash, is allowed to be inconsistent in my book since it has accepted that it is dumb shlock.  EDIT:

It's simple. The Eobard we saw in the porch after he "fixed" things had already lived through this season. As soon as Barry freed him he ran back in time to find a way to save himself.

It took a couple of loops for me to realise that was an updated version of the original SPEEDFORCE gif with Grant Gustin swapped in for John Wesley Shipp

Maybe they'll use the Spear to fix all the dumb plot moves they've made. Laurel comes back, Eobard goes away, Barry's mom's death gets timelocked, so nobody can mess with it, Good(ish) Snart comes back, Stein's kid gets locked in, so she's not a time aberration anymore. Maybe Supergirl's earth gets smooshed in to Earth-1?

I'm just going to assume that Malcolm couldn't bring himself to actually kill George Lucas, so he intentionally whiffed every shot. I got nothing for Darhk tho

Although that does remind me of that bit from a couple of seasons ago on Arrow where they were in a firefight and Oliver just picks up a gun and smokes a bunch of bad guys. Everyone is surprised and he's all "I never said I didn't know how to use a gun."

They planted a tracking device on the millennium falcon and had to let them escape alive to follow them to the base. Obiwon praises their accuracy at the start.

Obiwon praises their accuracy at the start. It's like Han's 12 parsec line. Nerds like Han so there's no way that line was him blowing smoke up Obi-wan's rear end. So the EU contrived a way to make it not sound like a Han doesn't know what a parsec is. The stormtroopers were told to let them escape.

Aaahahaha. making GBS threads on down-on-his-luck Malcolm Merlyn after just strolling right the gently caress into his home. And him just doooowning the rest of his drink. This episode is already amazing and I don't see it getting any less amazing. Edit: Yep, still getting more amazing. Thawne just straight up calling the Legends idiots and calling that an advantage over them. Aahahahaha. Zebulon fucked around with this message at 03:04 on Feb 1, 2017 |

It's dumb but in a really, really fun way. And oh my god the cattiness continues. I love this drat show so much. edit: I'm not sure I'll be able to handle this episode if this level of cattiness continues. Just Thawne, Darhk, and Merlyn endlessly sniping at each other.

Oh my god both sides trying to figure out Thawne's plan at the same time and cutting back and forth between them. And now they're fighting over what to make Rip do. This loving show. And Rory is still Rory. "I like beer. It gets me drunk." Then he just breaks the ice by flat out telling her that she shouldn't exist.

"Is that whiskey?" "No, of course it's not whiskey! It's brandy, I'm not a drat sailor!" This episode is pretty much the best episode you could to show to someone not involved in this show if you wanted to convince them of how fun it can be.

gently caress MAN, putting Lescher, Barrowman, AND McDonough on the same team, on the same show, is probably the greatest loving thing DC has ever done.
