The Flash The Flash General Discussion and Speculation Thread - Part 4

[Rowsdower!]

Just watched the preview of the upcoming episodes again. Anyone know who that pale creepy bald cenobite-looking dude is?

It looks like the editors for the trailer made a minor mistake since you could hear the clip of Barry saying "Then face me!" (which was shown in the recent reel), which a very quick shot of it being shown before it abruptly cuts to Oliver yelling "Barry move!".

It is going to be one heck of a fight when Flash, Arrow, and Firestorm fight Reverse Flash together.

 

[vantheman77]

Okay, I think the reason why the Flash is listed as "missing" in the news article that Wells keeps checking up on from time to time is because the Barry from 2024 is the one that went back and chased after Eobard into the past and when Nora was killed, it caused future Barry to vanish.

If Barry does save his mother, his future self could emerge again.

 

[PacificBoy]

Wow, The Flash is seriously good stuff. The only TV show which I'll sneak a watch during my lunch break.

 

[DJ_KiDDvIcIOUs]

Anyone else think it was a little weird for them to do the whole "This season on Flash" thing when they are on the last few episodes of the season? Would have made more sense to say on the final episodes or something

 

[Paradox1]

Unfortunately, that really doesn't amount to much at all when you really get down to it. It's the same with Batman, his tactician skills and planning are really only going to help him only so much against meta humans like Reverse Flash.

But on the other token, any speedster has to be dumbed down in comics to actually be able to be beaten. It's just an unfortunate consequence of the kind of character they are. If you write a character like Flash to his full potential...he's essentially unbeatable. Hence why they have to come up with idiotic reasons for him to get "tricked" by his bad guys in order for there to be any drama.

So while the "normal human who has experience" on his side thing is kind of silly when they use it as a way to show how a regular human can compete with metas, the writers have to wrench believably for someone like Flash to honestly have any trouble fighting some of his villains at all. So I suppose it all sort of evens out.

I tend to believe there isn't anyone that is unbeatable regardless of size strength and speed. I'm a fighter and I have to believe everyone who falls under that umbrella believes it too.

Also I find it hilarious when people want to bring in reality into these kind of discussions. In reality no one who can move at that speed exist. The only that counts is the reality of the world they've created. In that reality speedsters can be distracted and tricked. Hence a bomb attached to Barry's hand because he's so focused on his dad.

There's a potential spoiler in there I didn't notice the first time I watched it.

Spoiler

Seems like Eddie will turn on the "good guys" at some point, which doesn't come as much of a surprise considering his consanguineous link to the reverse-Flash.

There is being pissed at Barry then there is executing unarmed police officers. Something else is going on.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Like [BLACKOUT]Grodd mind-control[/BLACKOUT] possibly?

 

[Supernova]

Just when you think uou have all the answers this show changes the questions

 

[DarthDorranceBane]

Rory, played by Arthur Darvill, who's now cast as Rip Hunter, from, you know, if you've still living under a rock, another time travelling show, Doctor Who.

I hope it's true that we'll see Mark again before the end of this season, alongside Cold no less.

I don't think the new Trickster is anywhere close to being ready in carrying on the mantle on his own as of yet.

And plus, from what I remember hearing, Mark had said that had the original Flash series gone on for a second season, they would have introduced the Rogues then with him returning alongside them as well. So it's definitely something that Mark has been wanting to do as well.

There's another part where Barry [BLACKOUT]is fighting somebody else in a Flash costume[/BLACKOUT]. I'm assuming [BLACKOUT]shape shifter[/BLACKOUT].

 

[Cmithras]

Mark Hamill's Trickster and Cupid need to meet.

 

[godisawesome]

There's a brief flash of a guy who looks like he has a melting head alongside Mist and Weather Wizard as well. I think melty-head guy is out shapeshifter.

 

[Rorschach2012]

I can't wait to see Wally and Mirror Master next season

 

[Xaviesta]

Is it official that we will see Wally?

 

[king666]

I used to love Fringe (like, REALLY love Fringe) and I was devastated when it ended. No TV series had managed to be my substitute for Fringe... until this.

I'm giddy. This show rules HARD.

You mean Joker and Harley need to meet? I concur.
