Reminder that Barry was fast enough to run to Starling City and back to Central City carrying a 250 pound man near instantly, but still has trouble keeping up with the plot.

Atreiden posted:Really liked the whole crossover. but this is like the third time team flash just lets a villain walk away this season. Have they all forgotten prisons are a thing? Barry/others have kind of killed Thawne like three times now, and it clearly refuses to stick. If I were Barry, I’d go “gently caress it” too and just let him walk because he’s clearly NEVER going to actually die, so what’s the point in locking him up either. Thawne gonna Thawne.

I've always been partial to Earth-1 Krypton never blew up and so Kara and Kal never got superpowers. If they do go the Krypton exploded route, I think saying Kara's pod never got knocked off course and she kept herself and baby Kal in hiding all these years is the way to go. That way she'd be older and they could do Karen Starr/Power Girl (or maybe straight up call her Superwoman), and that could be fun, but no Kryptonians (or Batman, for that matter) on Earth-1 feels like the better option to me.

At a minimum we know that Earth 1 has a Bruce Wayne because Oliver mentioned him in passing this season; and because future newspaper from season 1 of Flash had an article about Wayne Enterprises merging with Palmertech.

FactsAreUseless posted:Reverse Flash has been the best part of the show since episode 1. Which is what drew me so hard to this show. As a massive Flash fan I just loved that they jumped directly into a very deep part of his mythos and never looked back. It never would have worked with any other character but for this version of the Flash it did and it was wonderful. A shame about season 2 though.

As disappointed as I was in Ralph not getting to make Diggle puke (thankfully that happened anyway) I have zero problems with the fact that he wasn't invited to Barry and Iris' wedding. But Jay should have been. Until we're given a reason to think otherwise i think it stands to reason that Earth 1's Bruce Wayne, Kal-El, and Kara-El just never became heroes. Since Oliver has krytonite and Cisco/Barry probably wouldn't have helped him do that I'm gonna assume Earth 1 Krypton exploded, but as said Kara and Kal could have just not made it to Earth. Doing Earth 1 Kryptonians feels complicated. I also kind of assume Oliver Queen and Barry Allen exist on Earth 38 but they're just nobodies or whatever. Oliver died in a shipwreck and Barry died in a lab explosion or something. Although I guess it would be funny for Kara to one day just run across one of them serving coffee.

They'll never explain it. It's better to have people wonder about what happened to their two biggest franchises and one moderately popular one than to say "oh yea, two of them died en route to the planet and one is just boring.

Doing Earth 1 Kryptonians feels complicated. Yeah when you think about it the simplest but also kind of dark explanation is that Earth 1 Krypton exploded and Kara and Kal either didn't make it off or (best case scenario) were sent somewhere else.

It's been Star City since Arrow S4 but it's understandable if you forgot, the writers and actors forget often enough too Also if you can't quiet that part of your brain that tries to reconcile Barry being able to physically abduct a person in another city in seconds, but has been foiled every other episode by smoke bombs or getting knocked on his rear end or whatever while the bad guy huffs it away on foot, this show is a special kind of torture

It's probably the case that it never happened at all(or it did and Superman saved him) and Ollie's still a rich and useless idiot. If there's no Reverse Flash on Kara's Earth, then Barry's parents never died and he never became a CSI and STAR Labs hasn't happened yet (I think it still has nine years before their Wells gets it off the ground since Thawne didn't interfere?). Barry probably ends up as a doctor like his dad or something.

Autism Sneaks posted:It's been Star City since Arrow S4 but it's understandable if you forgot, the writers and actors forget often enough too Let me make everything better for you. Barry is dumb. Like, super dumb. His entire brain consists of two levers that say "go fast" and "investigate crime scene" and a big red button that says "kill meta." He has so many near godly ways to apply speedforce and the only two he remembers is "throw lightning" and "run super duper fast." It's why he constantly needs someone in his ear telling him what to do. The reverse (  ) is why Thawne is basically the single biggest threat to the multiverse: not only does he do everything Barry does but he is a legit stone cold genius from the far future. The only one who can out  him is the thinker, the one person he's shown legitimate respect and admiration for. Everyone else is a slow moving peon. And what drives him insane is that everyone throughout time sees Barry as the winner and he somehow, in some way, keeps spoiling his plan every time they meet.Barry is dumb. Eobard is not. That is why one is a multiverse level power and the other is Barry Allen. Chokes McGee fucked around with this message at 04:47 on Dec 1, 2017 |

Barry couldn't find the Earth-38 doppelgangers for Wells, Cisco, and Caitlin because presumably they go by different names or don't have scientific careers/backgrounds on Earth-38 (Wells the Gray, anyone?), but yeah everything else we've seen of the multiverse so far basically confirms that they're out there somewhere on Supergirl's Earth, same with an Earth-38 Barry and Iris.
