Locked THE FLASH TV Series Discussion Thread 1.0

So Wells if is Reverse Flash than who was the yellow flash that attacked Star Labs when Wells was there in his wheelchair?

Spoiler

Eobard aka Eddie?

Ready for grodd!

 

[senri]

For whatever reason, the reverse flash a few episodes back was not wells, but Eddie or a descendant of Allen who went insane. I suspect it's Eddie because when he killed those swat cops at star labs, he merely looked at Eddie for a moment, and then went after Wells.

i haven't seen the episode yet but love the spoilers. getting excited to watch it later

Great episode. I'm glad I didn't let the early cheesiness keep me for continuing.

Also...

Spoiler

Why the fuck did Firestorm keep Eiling alive???

I know he's not really a killer, but it's not like Eiling's just going to let all of this go. He's got way too much information on them and power to remain alive, and we know he has no issue with trying to kill them. I'm just glad Wells is willing to get his hands dirty.

btw, I'm really impressed with the Firestorm CG. It looks almost movie quality.

I think at this point, Flash > Arrow.

We have enough information to make that judgment and I look forward to the flash episodes more than the arrow ones.

Plus I can't stand Laurel and even Felicity is getting annoying (blasphemy, I know). Just kind of over the show and it's a bit boring. Hopefully when they pick up the Atom story again it will be more interesting.

I think it's also ridiculous (though more realistic, I supposed) that like everyone in the show knows both of the superheroes secret identities at this point.

We're most of the way through season 3. Who in the main cast do you think shouldn't know by now?

EDIT: whoops, I think I got the two threads mixed up. Did you mean almost everybody in the Flash cast knows Barry's secret?

I agree with everything except for Felicity being annoying. Everything she has to say about the current state of Team Arrow is on point, IMO.

Is this some meme I missed out on?
Because Ollie is a dime piece smokeshow.

Is your sarcasm detector broken?

This Episode made me want to rewatch the Flashpoint Paradox , probably the best of DC's animated movies

On point. Felicity is the most overrated character here on SD. Her only power is stating the obvious. And shes not hott enough to pull that.

 

[Frank23]

He looks good.

 

[Francis Rossi]

Shouldn't it be illegal for Clancy Brown to be operating on US soil?

Agreed. Flash just keeps getting better while Arrow keeps getting worse.

Last nights episode was fantastic.

That's the CIA.

 

[devante]

i think the subject matter and the character representation makes flash an easier sell; not to mention its the first season, people have had three seasons of the arrow's act. Not to mention the arrow trying to stick to being realistic limits the show in many ways; another thing is right now we are getting the vicious/deadly arrow, which green arrow has that aspect.

They haven't played up the aspect of arrow being a bit swashbuckling and smashing mad super heroines and having beef w/other heroes as a result of sleeping w/their gf-wives- sisters or daughters.

i still enjoy arrow...but interested in the way they show the flash, show his powers and show enemies attempts to counter it...or new heroes (firestorm and hopefully vibe).

arrow will start to have metahumans soon...and i think that element brings another layer to the show

 

[JBSchroeds]

That's the CIA.

Depending on what the actions are then it's not just the CIA. The Posse Comitatus Act puts a number of restrictions on what the armed services can do on US soil.

For both shows I think too many people know. Again, it's more realistic in that if you were actually a superhero, people close to you would probably figure it out pretty quickly, but at the same time I think everyone else would too.
