The Flash The Flash General Discussion and Speculation Thread - Part 2

[KillerMcQueen]

It would be really convoluted and confusing for Ronnie to go from actually appearing for 9 episodes to only being a 'hallucination' once Stein shows up in Episode 12.

As Dr. Cosmic said, you got that backwards, I said Stein would be the hallucination. And what's with your obsession with the words confusing and convoluted?

 

[DigificWriter]

If Stein's just a hallucination, he can't be searching for a way to separate himself from Ronnie.

 

[KillerMcQueen]

Yes he can, he can do so through Ronnie.

 

[CaptainWagner]

He could appear as a voice in Raymond's head, or as a hallucination only Raymond can see.

Exactly. I don't get why some people think it would be so complicated.

 

[DrCosmic]

If Stein's just a hallucination, he can't be searching for a way to separate himself from Ronnie.

Shado was just a hallucination, and she was trying to kill Arrow. Stein is a hallucination and a real person, so he's even more powerful.

Little children didn't think this was convoluted or confusing:

No one thought there were white lines floating next to FS all the time, they understood it was a projection of a person, a hallucination only he could see, but it wasn't just a hallucination.

Did you see the after credits scene of Captain America The First Avenger?

People understand this idea of people only one character can see. It's been done. It's never confusing, even when it's meant to be a fake out like on the recent Agents of SHIELD.

There was a whole movie dedicated to this idea called Fight Club, and no one was confused. In fact, they were so unconfused, they gave it critical acclaim:

Jeffrey Dean Morgan is Thomas Wayne in the movies,and he has a history with the CW, it'd be awesome to see him as Thomas Wayne/Batman. Gustin has said that there's an intention to do a Flashpoint storyline, and the Wayne's exist in this universe... i don't think it's completely out of the question

That's just a rumor based on a painting: http://comicbook.com/blog/2014/08/07/batman-v-superman-jeffrey-dean-morgan-rumored-as-thomas-wayne/

Lets not confuse things, and even if it were the case, the tv and cinematic universes are separate.

Regarding who's who, if what Geoff said is true:

While Barry Allen, Iris West and other Flash characters have DC counterparts, Harrison Wells does not. "Harrison Wells is a new character that was created, the name obviously is brand new. I don't think we can say anything else about it," says Johns.

Wells could still be a new version of Zoom/Reverse Flash or another time traveler, who knows.

It would be cool if he were a giant floating head though.

Yeah that's the way they did it in the comics and Superfriends. I'm expecting changes though. I'm already seeing quotes from Robbie Amell complaining about the costume being too yellow for example

 

[Tv's Phil]

Yeah but he's also really excited. It was a weirdly worded line in the interview.
I mean, he may have thought it was too yellow but it was clear he was excited.

I only say this bc I don't want anyone to get the idea that he hates the suit.

 

[cyclone]

With Ronnie and Stein, I'd have it so that since the particle accelerator explosion, Ronnie was presumed dead and Stein missing. Have it so that Ronnie isn't dead (obviously) and Stein's consciousness is in Ronnie's head. You could show him similarly to how Slade kept seeing Shado on Arrow, with Ronnie seeing Stein when he needs him perhaps. Flash and anyone else who interacts with Ronnie wouldn't see Stein, but Ronnie would. It's not confusing really....

Geez have it be like Quantum Leap...it was totally believable that Al was helping Sam and only Sam could see and hear him.

^That's a really good example, totally forgot about that show.

That show would be fun to see rebooted, I think. They could do some crazy stuff nowadays.

Don't worry, it will.

Everythinggets rebooted eventually... movies, TV shows, cartoons, really witty car commercials... you name it.



Hell, they'll probably reboot the film Everything is Illuminated someday and call it Everything is Rebooted.

 

[batdude]

I should have brought up Quantum Leap. I think seeing Stein's whole body in the hallucination would go over than just his head.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Yeah, I'm not a fan of a floating head following Ronnie around.

 

[DrDoom]

Same reason he needs a Starship I suppose

 

[Lord Valumart]

Funniest thing I've read all day.

That clip is funny when you think a year from now Barry will probably laugh at that guy.

 

[Rorschach2012]

Flash's suit got tweaks for live action, Firestorm's suit should be tweaked as well but he should still be totally recognizable as Firestorm. Firestorm has an awesome and unique look, i hope they retain as much of the original look as possible

 

[B:TAS]

Anybody else notice that the newspaper from 2024 mentions a Wayne Tech and Queen Inc. merger. Cool to know Bruce Wayne exists in this universe.

Or that John Wayne lives a really long time in this universe.
