Chokes McGee posted:Dadcop owns, Jessie Quick owns, I'm still impressed that I went from hating Iris in the first season because she was a useless dramaball that was locked out of all the cool stuff to considering her one of my favorite characters on the show after Joe, Wells, and Cisco. I really like how she's developed the same kind of "yep, this poo poo is clearly happening" style that Joe has. Like father, like daughter  E: Like, after watching the blooper reels for the first two seasons, it's really clear how much fun everyone on his show is having just loving around in a comic book world and how much they all like working with each other.

Hollismason posted:Could that Wells be from Supergirl's Earth? That would be really interesting. I think though they said he was from Earth 19. Barry explicitly says that Kara'a Earth doesn't have a Wells (or a Caitlyn or a Cisco) when he visits in "World's Finest". Though there's always the possibility of a retcon. Who knows.

Daric posted:Pretty sure he was busy filming the new prison break season He also negotiated the same kind of uber-contract that John Barrowman did to allow him to show up on any Arrowverse show whenever he's free to. He's going to be a part of Legends' Legion of Doom along with Eobard, Darhk, and Merlyn, so it's not like he's not going to showing up at all this year.

Norwegian Rudo posted:Dominic Purcell hasn't missed any time on Legends so I doubt the filming overlapped. They said they were budgeting their time to allow both Purcell and Miller to film Prison Break and then do Legends at their leisure. From the sound of it, Prison Break filmed over the spring and summer this year, whereas Legends is still in production right now. Because it's not just Purcell and Miller that they need to work around, they also have to work around Sarah Wayne Callies being on Colony too.

ElCondemn posted:At least it's not a lame back story! They really need to bring on Jason Isaacs for a guest spot as Julian's father just so that him and Tom Felton can recreate that oppressive Lucius/Draco vibe. Though this makes me wonder where they're going with Julian now. If he is Dr. Alchemy then rant about Metas getting powers and squandering them has some interesting connotations, seeing as how all the people Alchemy has given powers to so far have kind of turned out to be fuckups who've wasted them...

Melissa Benoist and Grant Gustin are both Glee survivors, Jesse Martin's a Broadway star (plus we saw Singing Joe last year), and Carlos Valdes is also a singer away from Flash. So yeah, the talent's all lined up. Hopefully if it's not good it'll at least be fun.

Guy Goodbody posted:I know I just said that there's nothing to base our guesses on, but the way HR put so much emphasis on being the "face" of the operation genuinely makes me think his partner isn't human. So yeah, I'm guessing Grodd. Maybe HR's Earth is the one where everyone is actually a good guy so instead of Grodd, he's basically Winston from Overwatch. E: Plus it makes his nickname very pertinent if his partner is non human. Because that means HR is a literal human resource for his nebulous partner. nine-gear crow fucked around with this message at 20:05 on Nov 4, 2016 |

Oliver's probably floating them money under the table. And Ray probably bequeathed them his fortune as a slush fund too on account of him being "dead" to the rest of the world.  Comedy option: Cisco is actually still Flashpoint rich, he's just hiding it from everyone

I feel at this point, you could basically go "Eobard did [THING HERE]. What a dick!" and it would be 100% appropriate in every circumstance.

Gluten Freeman posted:Mostly he's got a bit of a weird tone in his voice due to being Australian -- I think most of the Aussie CW actors share the same vocal coach, and they end up sounding a bit samey. It's a bit of a deep, grumbly tone. Maybe I only recognise it because I'm Australian, I dunno. Huh. Well, I never would have guessed he was actually Australian, so there you go. The guy's perfectly fine for a network TV actor on a hokey genre show. I don't know what everyone's getting all agitated about.

Phylodox posted:Did Alchemy get a promotion this episode? Or did I just not notice them calling him a doctor before or explaining why? Cisco and Wells nickname him Doctor Alchemy in like the second or third episode. They've been awfully spotty with it since then, usually just calling him Alchemy because "Doctor Alchemy" is kind of a silly name, even if it's what he's called in the comics.

hiddenriverninja posted:The horror when Caitlyn processes that everything is Barry's fault is pretty great. God, Iris's Flashpoint fallout is just seeming more and more trivial all the time. "I was mad at my dad for like 6 months because he lied to me until I realized what I poo poo I was being and forgave him." And of course it was solved in the best way--dinner and dad jokes Because like I said, Joe and Iris share the super power of just not giving a gently caress drat.

FactsAreUseless posted:I rewatched Seasons 1 and 2 recently, because I love the first season a huge amount, and there's a great scene in which Barry and Joe are talking and Barry tells him about his powers and Joe's like "that's super cool man" and Barry's like "yeah it rocks." It's neat to have characters actually enjoy something about being a hero. To me, that scene is in season 2 when King Shark tears the roof off of Joe's house looking for Barry, and Wally is just freaking the gently caress out, while Joe and Iris look like they're on the verge of laughing and are just like "yeah, this stuff happens a lot. Get over it."

Oracle posted:Maybe they're assuming its Evil Barry who Future Barry warned them about. You know, given his general level of 5-steps-ahead dickishness, I'm thinking that the message was actually sent by Eobard posing as Barry to get everyone to be paranoid and mistrustful of Barry, purely because he's a delightful time troll. Barry just happening to be a massive gently caress up just works in Thawne's favor.

ElCondemn posted:I just think the concept is funny. The writers could have made the episode about heroes escaping from an alien ship, instead they decide the most exciting thing they can do is put all their heroes in a soap opera simulator. Each show is playing to its premise's strength / audience's tastes. Arrow's all about girtty melodrama, so they're basically forced to write what amounts to a bottle show in a soap opera simulator so that people tuning into the show expecting it to just be another episode of Arrow aren't driven away by Flash/Supergirl/Legends' colourful whimsy and crazy. It just means that they're gonna go balls out for Legends tomorrow because that's the bugfuck craziest of the four shows, so it'll be playing to its audience's expectations rather than Flash/Arrow/Supergirl's. E:  I'm just gonna assume that Kara punched the air in front of her face so hard it sent her flying...

Savitar would have probably pushed Zoom's poo poo in no matter how fast he got. Barry is a bigger threat because he could possibly erase Savitar from existence by going back in time and sneezing on Buddha or something. Note: I'm just devil's advocating here. I do not give one honest poo poo about this show's plot holes. Fun does not have to make sense all the time.
