It wasn't as bad as the time Zoom trapped Barry in a glass cupboard and he couldn't work out how to escape until Zoom phased through it to beat him up.

Unfortunately Earth 2 glass vibrates at a different frequency meaning Barry needed someone to show up and tell him to run faster.

To be fair, this time, no one told Barry to run faster. So, of course, he couldn't do it.

Checks out.

Barry also doesn't have the pinpoint control Cisco does.

Yeah, Barry has to run fast and try and get the right exit. And we've seen his accuracy on that is pretty sketchy. Any time Barry's ran through time or space on his own he's often missed his target and landed in Supergirl's world or the future by accident.

Cisco seems to have mastered the ability to just aim for a destination and hit it.

How did Barry speed carry Wells, Caitlyn, Cysco, and Malfoy out of Gorilla City? Does superspeed allow that?

Maybe he just ran really fast four times.

Or they just got dragged along in his backdraft.

Or maybe he built one of those cute little Reverse Flash balls super fast and then deconstructed it super fast.

I am trolling you, CineD

28 Days Later is actually a great movie

fuck starcraft

Man, that episode was just full of completely :psyduck: nonsensical writing. I mean, you guys covered most of them already so I won't rehash those, but..."oh, Barry is dead. I'm going to just drag him out of the cage and place him just outside the cage door for no loving reason and leave".... Was that actually the plan? They somehow knew that Grodd would do that in response to Barry being "dead"?

Or how about Grodd's plan to turn the gorillas against the humans. "hey guys, you all just saw this human singlehandedly take out the biggest, baddest gorilla in this place in hand to hand combat. don't you guys agree it would be a good idea to go attack the human planet, in which there are billions more humans like this one that just wrecked our leader's poo poo?"

I mean, there is literally no reason for the gorillas' response for what they just saw to be anything other than "oh poo poo, we better not provoke the humans, they would clearly kick our asses if we went to war". Sure, Barry is unique for a human, but considering that is pretty much their first exposure to a human, they would have to believe that the rest of the humans are just as strong as him and he just wrecked their leader that all of them are afraid of.

Ha, this makes me picture one of those scenes where the person studies the problem, we see equations flying across the screen to show them puzzling it out, then Barry concluding with "Maybe I should try running fast."

Trump saw the last episode, thought it was real and his speech is about how he wants to build a wall to keep out psychic gorillas.
