Solaris Knight posted:It's 2014 and I'm watching a show with the Reverse Flash and FIRESTORM in it. Life is beautiful. Wait until Gorilla Grodd shows up. I wonder if they are going to get an appearance by Michael Rosenbaum at some point, since the show seems to be really respectful of its past incantations.

Bruceski posted:He'll first appear in episode 112? I know it's good to plan ahead but still... It got good ratings and assume it will be getting a full 22 season order if it hasn't already. If it didn't get a full season yet, its usually for 13 episodes so it makes sense that they are casting for those episodes at this point.

I hope they keep the thing that makes him really interesting. Its not what is mentioned in the article, as they are keeping him close to his comic book personality. bobkatt013 fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Oct 9, 2014 |

McSpanky posted:More that you seem to have completely ignored the context clues in the pilot that the TV version is not nearly as godly with his superspeed as the comics version is, so most of these complaints are irrelevant to this thread. This Flash can't even break the sound barrier at a dead sprint, let alone punch someone a billion times before they can think. Before the speed force Wally always had to eat and then rest days. He also could not go past a certain speed due to these limitations.

Aphrodite posted:The newspaper actually says Flash disappeared during the "Crisis". We don't know if he saved the world or not. It's possible he failed, and Wells is trying to make him better for the second try. Or its a huge easter egg for Flash comic fan Barry Allan died during the Crisis in 1985, and red skies were part of it.

zoux posted:The Superman I feel bad for is Routh. He's a good actor and the guy that got cast just a couple of years after him is set for loving life. Routh also seems like a good dude and he got stuck in a movie that had so much baggage that he was in a no win situation. The fact that it was so tied to the original two is a huge problem. Its a good movie but the fact its a love letter makes it a super flawed movie.

Deadpool posted:Geoff Johns has written a lot of mediocre poo poo over the last 10 years or so but the one thing he does very well is write Flash. His original Flash run is still probably one of the best runs on the character ever. If not outright the best. I wouldn't trust him to control too much, but I think Flash is just fine for him. Second best. Waid is still the best. However, he is doing really well with this show.

greatn posted:I think Waid also, when he returned, made the comic all about Wally's kids no one cared about. He was sort of pissed at that. He said that he said all that he had to say with the character. Other than Zoom what great villains did Johns create other than Zoom? It would be crazy if it was Barry going back in time to stop Zoom killing his mom, only to find out that the battle goes past them and his dad did do it. bobkatt013 fucked around with this message at 19:29 on Oct 23, 2014 |

Unkempt posted:Basically Waid was #62-#162, Johns was #164-225. There's probably a few fill-ins in that lot. Yes and one of those fill ins was Millar and Morrison. We could get parallel universes since that is something Flash is known for, and crisis mention. When they bring in Gorrila Grodd I hope they adapt the storyline when he gives every animal awareness and it causes animals to attack humanity and the only one who can save the day is Rex the Wonder Dog. bobkatt013 fucked around with this message at 20:04 on Oct 23, 2014 |

Drifter posted:I liked the Dad's version of the Flash at least originally because that 90s show showed him running in just plain clothes and them getting torn to shreds, but here Barry's running all around and not even a hair is out of place. His shoes are fine nothing is effected except for him going "well, lordee-la, boy ah am surely feelin' a mite bit peckish tonight, I do declare, from all that runnin' ah've been up to!"

tsob posted:Arrow has already had enough perfect foils in Merlyn and Deathstroke (not sure who the third season's villain is since I'm still going through season two after starting Flash), so personally I'd prefer to see some less perfect ones and more complimentary ones. Seeing him take on someone with actual superpowers, even if relatively low level as a season villain of some kind for instance. That's partially because I actually kind of like heroic Catman as an aging and over-the-hill Batman who mainly uses boxing though, even from my minor exposure to him through the cartoons. I've no idea how he relates to villain Catman however. It looks like its the father of a character we met last season.

Xelkelvos posted:For what it's worth, the only actual Flash villain he's faced so far was in the first episode. The other two were rogues of Firestorm and Starman, so while it's appropriate to use GA's personal rogues for big villains, it probably wouldn't hurt if they started picking from other galleries. Enemies like Maxwell Lord or Kobra or Brother Blood Why would they use Brother Blood when they just used him in Arrow? I wonder if either show is going to do a version of the Judas Contract.

In Smallville we'd be waiting until S4 for half that stuff. In Smallville when was the first villain from the comic book introduced? Lex does not count since in the early seasons he was more heroic than Clark.
