I'm a woman. A black woman. Which you should know by now because I spent a long time in the last thread explaining why Iris is important to women and young girls of color. To you iirc. My "gimmick" as you call it, is pretty harmless and I'm sorry that my defending a black woman character is so threatening to you.

I'm not really attempting to police by asking people to stay positive and on topic. Iirc it's perfectly acceptable for the OP to do this. I think it's a cute thread and it has gotten some positive feedback and been cool til people came in to bitch about Iris/Barry. Which is useless because we all know it's inevitable, so what do you accomplish by complaining?

People are allowed to voice their disdain, and also make incest jokes. It doesn't have to detract from what you take away from the show.

I think it's just the whole "he has to end up with her because comics canon!" thing. It may not make sense in the context of the show for them to end up with each other, but by God it will happen.

nevermind that Arrow killed black canary to have him hook up with a tv created character

So I'm basically an rear end in a top hat because I just want a cool comic book show and don't give a poo poo about twitter spats or hash tags.

Iris, as a character, is poorly written and I do not like her. Candace Patton seems like a nice lady and she's very attractive, but unless they Flashpoint her character into being more functional then I don't really care about the Canon of their relationship.

Lingering effects bets:

1) Someone who was a bad guy is now a good guy
2) Someone who was a good guy is now a bad guy
3) Iris is now in a deeply committed relationship with someone else. Again.
4) Barry's mother lived and father died.
5) Cisco is still rich.


Place your bets.

The worst part of this is that they got rid of Diggle's daughter.

Will Barry's memory fade of Timeline 1 and Timeline 2 now? And will he eventually remember all of timeline 3? Or does that not work when it's a lovely reality he doesn't like?

No Butt Stuff
Jun 10, 2004

Or they could conceivably not have Norah Allen living be something the effects the gender of Diggle's child. Or anything in a city 600 miles away. I understand the whole "butterfly effect" thing, but it's also not hard to suspend your disbelief that maybe it wouldn't radiate outward that far, that quickly. I mean, what? Does she later run over an ARGUS platoon killing Lyla?

It didn't have to affect other shows, given that it had only been ~15 years and the major event that it somehow changed was no metas, which apparently only largely occurred two years ago.

Who's another super genius that might show up? It can't be anyone that's met HR in the main universe, because he certainly would have mentioned that they're his partner's doppleganger.

The cliffhanger ending was annoying. Of course Barry is pinned with no escape. By a speed god or whatever.

Do you think he'll phase through (inexplicably, since it's be countered) or that Wally will burst out of his lava shell thing and sweep the leg?

Actually no, Joe will shoot Savitar in the leg, it'll plink off, but he'll run away and we'll hear "drat that was close, you okay?"

Also, it's pretty obvious Wally is going to be Kid Flash. So are they going to keep two speedsters full time? It seems like they shipped Jesse and Harry back to Earth-2 because they DIDN'T want that. Will it be all "Barry trains Wally" or does Wally hop in at roughly Barry's level already?

I liked how they used HR on the rooftop as evidence that they could change the future.

What about the possibility that Barry just didn't notice a guy in dark clothes on a far off roof top because he was watching his girlfriend get murdered?
