The Official Flash Thread - Part 2

[Savage]

Yeah, he really comes off more like Zoom in that poster. Or like Flash went on an all night bender or something. Not sure why beards make non-Green Arrow heroes look so evil.

Quick question: I have read that WB is considering a Justice League movie and it was in one of the news announcements regarding it that it was mentioned that it would introduce audiences to The Flash, Wonder Woman, etc.

What does this mean for The Flash movie? Could we still get a solo adventure BEFORE a Justice League movie?

I for one hope so!!

 

[Vichy]

I would love to see a Flash movie if they minimized slow-motion shots.

 

[Timstuff]

Excessive slow motion in a movie about The Flash would actually get pretty annoying, I think. Slow-mo shots definitely have their purpose given that he moves so much faster than everything else, but they need to actually show him moving fast a lot more than they show everything around him slowing down. Filming a car chase in slow motion was one of the biggest letdowns of The Matrix Reloaded because it sucked the speed out of it.

If they ever make The Flash and have him fight Zoom, the action sequence should look and feel like a freaking high speed car chase.

I thought the biggest letdown was the fact that they made it, but I digress...

When I saw thoese Green Lantern game screenshots I just had to mess with it to see how a Flash costume would look like in CGI style lol. It's not the best but it's something lol. Anyways enjoy a something kinda looking Flash lol...

 

[Kokomo29]

^^^That's actually really, really cool!!

 

[chiefchirpa]

It's like a skinless, sinewy man.

Nah I like Flash without the stripes covering the body. Just solid scarlett and some gold stripes.

 

[Karelia]

I actually think that looks pretty sweet.

 

[Lord Valumart]

Could they actually get away with using spandex on The Flash since runners already use that stuff? It would probably looks stupid but like, his first costume before his proper one, like wrestler Spider-man...

 

[Kokomo29]

I wonder if they do make THE FLASH, whether Wally West will be involved in some capacity. I think it would be cool if @ the end of the movie, Barry dies and the last shot is Wally assuming the mantle.

I've always liked that idea. I like the idea that modern day sprinters wear such outfits on the track and that the Flash wouldnt be wearing a 'costume' per se, but an outfit designed for running in, albeit a specially designed one like in the tv show [have S.T.A.R. labs come up with the suit [hell, Barry's a scientist - he can create one himself] for the purpose of resisting heat friction.

The link below is to a site which features what is described as a 'Sprint Suit' and the material looks pretty cool. Have it cover the whole of the body and add gloves, boots and a cowl and the look definately wouldnt look stupid (It'd also be a cool excuse to put running spikes on Flash's boots ).

Basically, this (with obvious stylistic changes to make it more comicbook accurate):-

but made out of the materials above..........

 

[Airwings]

The running spandex now seems to me as the right way to go, with the typical Flash colors of course.

An earlier suggestion with a leather type of suit (Daredevil-esque) was something I liked too, but this one seems to be better.

 

[DieSmiling]

Devon Sawa? What has he ever been in apart from that Eminem video and Idle Hands?

Little Freakin' Giants.

 

[Airwings]

Maybe we should agree on the fact that Devon Sawa has played roles in a string of films, more than we could guess.

 

[Brian Braddock]

He was also in the 1st Final Destination.

Never been able to stand Sawa personally; actually, I think it all stems from FD and the Eminem vid.

 

[Airwings]

Never been able to stand him??? Why?
I really want him as The Flash. I think he will work well.

Those running outfits would be really cool decked out in the Flash colours. I think the head gear would be the hardest thing to do without it loking like you've streatched a condom over your head. Also goggles would be nice...

a leather suit wouldn't work. Just think of the hear he'd build up in that running around.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Imagine the collossal amounts of sweat you'd get my running around the world in a leather suit? Uurrgh. Clearly, whoever suggested the idea has never seen the Friends episode were Ross gets himself a pair of leather pants.

 

[HighFivingMF]

It has pockets inside that collect sweat.

Noe have htey been wearing a leather jacket on a cold day suddenly for it to turn into blistering heat...

'Man, I sure am thirsty after all that running; good job I brought these bags full of water that I keep in my pockets..... '

 

[OPAZO]

I wish that the crew will go with a spandex suit. I want the suit to have some lighting shapes in red like I did with this movie poster,

I got a feeling that the crew will go again with a CGI costume again lol. Maybe not for the face but for the body.

Either way I can't wait to see a official pic of this suit with the lighting bolts coming from his suit.

The actor who is going to play Bary Allen (I wish for Bradley Cooper) he will need to get really in shape! So they don't go with that fake muscle crap like they did with the TV show lol.

A modified Capt America style helmet would work.
