Yeah, especially at the very beginning it seemed super noticeable.

Enjoyable episode, but the super army car being controlled by emojis was weird enough that it took me out of things a bit.

That is the stupidest thing this show has ever done, and that is a long list.

At the very least voice activation would seem a lot more modern and practical than tapping emojis on a touch screen while you're driving.

I do absolutely love the idea of a younger generation of Rogues who are a little more shades of grey.

And the Catilin/Cisco cure debate being solved in a single episode instead of it being an entire season long arc like many other shows would do.

Emojicar was completely ridiculous until you realize it's basically the army reverse engineering the Batmobile. So of course they're gonna do stupid, wasteful stuff like putting those lights on it and making an emoji-based UI.

Definitely this. I was really worried they'd be cranky at each other for the rest of the season but they managed to go from problem --> conflict --> resolution/understanding --> cooperation in record time. Even with a clear ground rule (that's definitely going to come up later when it could shut down Cicada).

On a different note, I know it's stereotypical rich douchebag showing off but it should be criminal to have a Lambo or similar car in the city. That is a car begging for chances to go fast and deserves a lightly-used highway.

He’s old. That’s it. He’s an old broken down villain who may not even have his powers anymore thanks to Cisco and Caitlyn’s totally not going to be abused by Argus cure.

It turns out that when Thawne gets older he just looks remarkably like Wells.

In Crisis on Earth X, it was "because he felt like it". I guess that still stands?

Also did Thawne only have FIFTY-TWO minutes left?

Serious answer: likes Wells' face just to gently caress with Barry, eventually stuck that way

I assumed that was a side effect of Silver Ghost using her meta-tech power to bend the car's systems to her will. Like, before she possessed the car, it was probably a serious-looking, military designed interface, but she willed it into something more fun because she was in a playful mood.
