The Flash The Flash General Discussion and Speculation Thread - Part 3

You misspelled "Yay".

Looks like they were serious about Atom not displaying powers on Arrow.

I don't think he'll have his powers then, but he will be working with Star Labs to develop the tech, which I assume will appear by season's end.

You know, I think it really hit me at the end of last night's episode where Barry was sitting with Joe and having a beer that the number one thing I love about this show is the characters. I don't know if this was intentional or not on the producers' part but I like how most of the actors on the show are very young looking people who could easily pass for high school students if they wanted to, but instead they are all full grown, mid-late 20's adults who have jobs, drink beer, still live at home with their parents and have their own lives. To me, that makes these guys so relateable, especially as a mid 20 something myself who has a full time job and also lives at home. They feel like real, modern, young adults.

If the producers wanted to they could've just done the ol' "teenage kid discovers he has strange abilities while coping with the drama of high school" schtick thats been done so many times, but this approach of young, baby faced adults with adult lives feels very fresh to me.

I think SAG usually makes them change their name if there is already another actor going by the name.

But they haven't because the younger one definitely has that name and she's on Jessie.

 

[Bathead]

I think SAG usually makes them change their name if there is already another actor going by the name.

Only if both (or however many) names match. Like Sam Jones (He played Cap AM once IIRC) and Eric Jones would be ok, but two actors named Sam Jones wouldn't be. the second Sam to join SAG would be required to change his name, either Sam, or Jones, or both.

flashpoint is happening. Gustin back in August. He continued, "What the coolest thing about that moment, to me, is they're setting up the fact that the Flashpoint story line [from the comics] could potentially happen — that Speed Force could be an aspect and time travel is potentially a part of the show http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/flash-stars-tease-major-time-764755

Yeah, but both actresses are named Peyton List.

A version of Flashpoint might be happening.
We don't know how different it will be from the source material.
It certainly won't have as many DC characters as the original Flashpoint books did.

I can see Arrow replacing Batman in the CW's version of Flashpoint. Perhaps Oliver's father survived on the island and trained with Slade Wilson, becoming an even more ruthless and murderous alternate version of the Arrow

And then we'll get a New 52 style reboot, and Laurel ended up on the boat. But unlike Sara, she wasn't able to survive the ordeal afterwards.

I've thought this for some time would be really cool.

I do wonder though say they do Flashpoint does it last for a few episodes? A season? Do the shows cross over for the episodes/season?

Do you have anything on The Flash? –Sandy
Episode 16 is a real family affair, introducing both Captain Cold’s sister (played by The Tomorrow People‘s Peyton List) and Cisco’s brother (Sleepy Hollow‘s Nicholas Gonzalez). Of the latter casting, showrunner Andrew Kreisberg says, “We’re definitely going to see Cisco in his home environment, which is fun. Some of it’s based on the comic book work that Geoff Johns and Sterling Gates and I did, and some of it’s our own invention.” Bonus scoop: Episode 18 will unleash on Central City a bee-a-utiful tech wizard who rocks oversized shades and red lipstick… and has devised a clever-slash-amoral-slash-wildly unstable scheme to weaponize bee-sized ‘bots.

To do flashpoint right and up the stakes in the dc shared tv universe, it should affect the arrow too. However, if they're going to have Oliver's dad be arrow, I don't see that happening unless it's the annual crossover between the two shows. I just don't think two eps is enough for such an epic story...

@armenvfx just showed us a little Grodd VFX in honor of @geoffjohns birthday and it blew our puny human minds! #groddlives #TheFlash

My speculation for an Arrow-verse Flashpoint is that Slade or even Merlyn becomes the Flashpoint!Arrow.

It would be amazing if they did do a Flashpoint episode(s). However I don't see Arrow itself being affected by the temporary timeline change and just chalk it off as only Barry being stuck in an alternate timeline

I wonder if Grodd will actually appear this season or will he just be a final scene tease in the season finale.
