The Official Flash Thread

[GoblinWhirlwind]

I thought Garrick was just one of the background characters in the JSA... I didn't think he was a favorite.

 

[Young Superman]

If Scott Porter would play Wally, who should play Linda?

If Scott Porter would play Wally, who should play Linda?

My choice would be Galactica fan-favorite Grace Park.

 

[Young Superman]

Nice pick

 

[flash13]

My choice would be Galactica fan-favorite Grace Park.

She's my pick too.t:

 

[Webhead2006]

not a bad pick what about the chick who was comm officer in enterprise show, i think she would do well too.

 

[MadVillainy]

Maybe Linda Park could play Linda Park

 

[flash13]

Or maybe that girl Yeiko who was on FlashForward this week as Linda.

 

[cerealkiller182]

I like Michael Conlin from Bones for Linda Park. She definitely seems like a newscaster type who could also be a scientist type.

 

[Drakon]

I had to go look Michaela Conlin up. I'm glad I did. HOT. SAUCE.

 

[Fresh Prince]

Nope. if he was, then you would hear more love from the fans. Because he's the Flash of the Golden Age, most fans associate with Barry and Wally.

Again, it would be like making movies of the Green Lantern, but with Alan Scott. I think fans would be like "huh"?. Samething with Jay Garrick. A big "WTH".

Alright Wally West then.

 

[MadVillainy]

I watch Bones religiously but Im not sure that Conlin can pull off being a female lead in a big budget movie

 

[Timstuff]

Maybe Linda Park could play Linda Park

Nah, that'd be stupid.

 

[Webhead2006]

whats wrong with linda park i thought she was good in enterprise show.

 

[Drakon]

It's a joke.

 

[Webhead2006]

oh ok man.

 

[Timstuff]

Well, I do think it'd be stupid to get someone named Linda Park to play a character named Linda Park. Something about it rubs me the wrong way.

 

[terry78]

I liked Joy Osmanski on that now defunct show The Loop and her guest stint on Better Off Ted. If West looks kinda young, she would somewhat mesh with that. Plus she's like 35 and doesn't even look it.

 

[Webhead2006]

well should be interesting to see who is picked for any and all flash characters.

 

[cerealkiller182]

I watch Bones religiously but Im not sure that Conlin can pull off being a female lead in a big budget movie

But "female lead" is a misleading term. Its not as if she carries the film. She's the "love interest" and "damsel in distress," her only screentime would be how she affects Wally's life, as a supporting actress I think she'd be fine.

 

[Timstuff]

She's got a really big mouth. Not bad looking, but some of the other choices I've seen here are a lot closer to how I think Linda should look (Grace Park, Joy Osmanski).

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

If Scott Porter is playing Flash, it will be Barry.

The script will undoubtedly be Barry Allen as Flash.

Scott was in the running to play Barry in JL:M too.



So, the love interest will be Iris, not Linda Park.

 

[MadVillainy]

1) We dont know if Porter will be playing Flash
2) We dont know if its Barry or Wally
3) Even if it is Barry we're just speculating just like ppl speculate on who will play John Stewart or Kyle Rayner

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

Fair enough.


But in the Johns script, it is very likely Barry Allen is the Flash.

I figured the GL situation was different since they're all generally close in age (at least Hal, John, Guy etc)..


If Wally was to appear in a Barry film, wouldn't he be a kid? JL:M had Anton Yelchin as Wally as a young teen.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea i still say if flash is indeed to be next one up after green lantern its probably going to be barry. personally i said i dont know much on flash's but i think it would be easier to start a flash series with the first silver age one. Give homage to golden age in some fashion and then move to wally in a sequel. I dont want to start in the middle of the flash legacy or get a barry that is wally like or a wally that is barry like.

Yea say if it is barry and they are going origins deal, barry was what 24 yrs old right. Maybe they could change him to be like 28yrs old. Then make wally be a teen in 15-18yrs old. So their could at least be about a 10yr age difference. Though i dont know myself how much of a age difference their was for barry to wally when wally first showed up.
