So how much of the season's budget went into this one fight?

It's a real shame that no one on Earth-1 has heard of guns to take on the gorillas.

"swat is standing by" Yeah, in the police station or what? The kid from arrow with the guns would have been in heaven.

bull3964 posted:I guess we are supposed to assume Grodd would mind control anyone else? There have been a lot of stupid handwavey things these past two episodes (hell in the series in general) but I think a decent enough theory is that they wanted to try Barry's plan of having Solovar fight Grodd and win back the allegiance of his army, who would then leave peacefully. If the police maimed/killed a number of gorillas, this might not have been an option, and Jesse and Wally could just nonlethally distract them in the meantime (hell, part of the deal with Solovar might have been that none of his people were killed).

Well that is one crazy episode. That was pretty nuts getting Solivar to fight and kill Gross. Vietnamwees fucked around with this message at 06:05 on Mar 1, 2017 |

I missed Harry. There is not enough bastard in the show.

I really like that Harry's 'I'm dying' plot would have actually worked, but nope he was just being his typical rear end in a top hat self

Honestly I enjoyed the episode, but I don't think it was that strong. They pretty obviously blew their budget for this two-parter all on the first episode, and then tried to figure out a way to budget the second half. The trailers and EPs promised this big epic fight against a gorilla army, but Barry and co. fought like five of them for a minute before Solovar comes in, beats Grodd, and the gorillas just immediately follow him again for a quick tidy ending. And that was a great goofy fight to watch, but the build-up to the big army fight falls flat upon delivery. Even Barry's whole moral dilemma of whether or not he should kill Grodd is taken completely out of his hands, and instead he just convinces Solovar not to do it by promising to keep Grodd away from Earth-2. I'm also not really digging Gypsy, whose entire personality is just "I'm a badass." There's potential, but the writers just want her to be generic action girl for Cisco to get the hots for. Cisco could have easily opened up the breach for Solovar alone, so why was she even there after a whole scene of him convincing her to help? She just ends up being another example of CW's writers being incapable of writing women with more than one or two personality traits. Oh and they have to be either ready to hookup, or already with someone. Harry was especially way more dickish than usual, when you step back and realize he was trying to emotionally manipulate Wally into leaving Jesse by faking a terminal illness. poo poo I feel like they tidied up Jesse's anger at him way too quickly. This isn't a usual "dad you're being overprotective" moment, and it's even extra dickish when you remember Wally's mother died of a terminal illness. The first episode had its flaws, but I think it was a much stronger showing because it just focused on Story A (E2 in Gorilla City) and Story B (Wally and Jesse). This episode was all over the place in comparison and didn't really deliver on what the trailers promised. It was 85% CW dramatics and then 15% of actual action, and that's if you include Barry's high-speed game of decoder.

Ha, "You take care of my little girl." "I'll die before I let anything happen to her." drat Wally, you foreshadow any harder you're going to cause an eclipse.

If Wally dies I wonder if they'll introduce red-headed white Wally from Earth 23.

It was pretty heavily hinted at in every episode she's been in. Nothing there was a surprise.

lotus circle posted:It's less about what has been hinted or not, and more that her entire character just exists to give Cisco a girlfriend. So yeah, it is kind of creepy on a writing level. Characters who only exist to be love interests are problematic, but I'm not sure creepy is the right word.

Big Belly Burger's economic growth is probably skyrocketing based on the number of burgers speedsters buy from them alone.

Barry you've killed at least 20 people. Like why are they even having this conversation?

I like that Barry's tactic is to just run in a straight line toward Grodd. This episode was kind of fun but bogged down by some just really dumb poo poo.
