Yeah, I think he pronounced like, "Eon," but with, "-bard," substituting for the, "-n."

Deadpool posted:Really? I thought it was pretty obvious how to pronounce that. I guess it could've been Ebbard but I never thought for once it wouldn't be Yobard. And of course Ee-oh-bard sounds dumb as hell. Maybe your primitive 21st century ears can't properly understand how it's said.

I always thought it was Ay-oh-bard. It's a good thing the show corrected the pronunciation, I would have been so embarrassed if I ever got the chance to time travel to the 25th century.

If memory serves there was a pronunciation key in the back of the Life Story of the Flash hardcover and it was definitely Ee-Oh-Bard.

So in light of the big Thawne/Cisco conversation a few episodes ago, I went back to watch the Flash/Reverse Flash STAR Labs fight and man something else has to be going on there. Wells starts out talking to the recording, all well and good. Then he gets pulled into the force field and beat up and I guess he could be moving fast enough to be injuring himself while making it look like the recording is doing it or something. Then Joe kills the force field, Reverse Flash drops Wells, steals the tachyon whatsit, comes back and begins beating the hell out of the cops, at which point Barry arrives and attacks him. Somewhere in there Wells managed to change places with his injured self and go put on the costume behind the voice-activated barrier, but I'm not sure when. Maybe I'm just tired but it feels like a piece is missing.

I don't get it, unless you sound it out slowly like a weirdo it's gonna come out exactly like Cavanagh said it, somewhere between Eeyobard and Ayobard.

You don't see Wells moving any more after Reverse Flash ganks the tachyon device. You see him in the background during the police beatdown but he seems to have the same pose the entire time. So I guess that's when the switch was made? But he's in costume when he grabs the device, and you see the Wells on the floor react to the device getting stolen

Polaron posted:That's my point. Wells keeps moving around during the scene at Star Labs. Maybe the RF and the tachyon device are all projections from the forcefield generator? Everything from RF being trapped through RF beating on Wells and then stealing the generator happens with no interaction between anyone else but them, it could all be part of Wells' scripted event sequence. When RF takes the generator and disappears Wells could make a mirage image of his unconscious body and then come back in the yellow suit to beat on the cops, free and clear.

Hey so I guess my Last Read extension is messing up because that's pretty much what we're trying to figure out, never mind edit 2: Here we go. Outside of the hologram chamber, they're never both moving at the same time. Mystery solved. Hazo fucked around with this message at 05:14 on Apr 5, 2015 |

Hazo posted:edit 2: Here we go. Outside of the hologram chamber, they're never both moving at the same time. Mystery solved. I just realized theres a half handed Fifth Element reference there. "Cisco! Lights!" So the way I see the scene playing: The recording goes as soon as they field is triggered. RF says "Dr Wells we meet at last" ignoring Joe. "Field fails" right after the video feed is cut so there's no way to frame by frame it later and reveal the truth. When the field fails part two of the recording plays of Wells getting his rear end beat. RF steels tachyonic device and is momentarily Wells lying there beat up now that Joe has truly disabled the field by smashing it. Everybody turns and RF kills the redshirts. The only piece out of place is the wells who remains lying around in the trap.

Robot Hobo posted:She's either hiding her suspicions very well, or she graduated top of her class from "The Lois Lane School of Utterly Oblivious Journalism." Robot Hobo posted:If April O'Neil was as good of an investigative reporter as Iris West, we'd be in season 2 of TMNT before she finally suddenly shouts "Holy poo poo, you guys are big-rear end turtles! Why didn't you tell me?" Why do people keep thinking Iris is an investigative journalist, or that her competence is somehow badly written? Seriously, everybody at the paper looks down on her. Everybody's condescending towards her abilities to some extent, including her dad and Barry, and even Eddie. (except, amusingly enough, Wells, who knows a lot more about her than anybody else) She's a Tumblrina who stumbled into a job at the paper because of her Flash blog. Her boss won't even let her write about other things. She apparently had no internships, no part time jobs at the student paper, no connections in town through professors or anything, she was literally the Journalism Majortm who changed her major late junior year, then got a job as a Barista after college. And compare eager beaver Iris with equivalently aged actual pro-journalist Linda, who figures out pretty quickly what's really going on with Iris and Barry. evenworse username posted:That was the only thing I didn't like about the last episode - Barry's pointless needling of Wells. They have an advantage at the moment in that Wells doesn't (or didn't) know they've figured him out, and Barry is going to piss it away making childish shots. It just came across as stupid. After what we saw with the time reset button episode, that's in character though. Like Barry is flat-out told "don't do X-Y-Z" for perfectly logical, acceptable, and even potentially dangerous reasons, but he goes and does it anyway. It's almost like the writers are treating these young 20-somethings as .. flawed human beings. My Q-Face fucked around with this message at 10:24 on Apr 5, 2015 |

Aphrodite posted:I mean even if you see them leave at the same time he technically still had time to kill her, make breakfast, get in a 3 mile run and some yoga. I might be  but this is the one problem I have with super speed on this show (and in general, though they don't really focus on it in the other media I've seen with this. Maybe they do, who knows, I haven't read a flash comic in... ever). Okay, Barry is super fast, got it, he can do anything a thousand times faster than you. So why does this make any sense?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUiBMK_MVJs Okay, Barry can move that fast, but what about the water he used to brush his teeth? What about the Coffee? Are the Baristas just dicks in that they had lattes already made for all those people, but the new guy was too much of a klutz to pass them out? Like 99% of your time spent in Starbucks or wherever is waiting for the coffee to brew, does Barry just wait faster than everybody else?

My Q-Face posted:Why do people keep thinking Iris is an investigative journalist, or that her competence is somehow badly written? They don't think she's a trained journalist, they just think that she's been given enough clues to put together that something is going on, if not know exactly what's going on with Barry. Barry is struck by lightning, then nine months later wakes up and a day or two later the Flash appears on the scene moving around with visible lightning streaks. Iris herself starts questioning whether something is going on with him at this point because she notices that he's clearly hiding something from her and behaving strangely. Then the Flash starts stalking her and being kind of creepily flirty and a few weeks later she finds out that Barry has had a big crush on her for years. Around this point though she just accepts that Barry is being weird and drops the idea that he might be hiding something. She knows that STAR labs is hiding stuff and is probably involved with metahumans given the whole thing with Firestorm and how badly everyone covered up his connection to the place and that Barry is working there since the lightning strike. He frequently disappears really fast and all of a sudden is always on time for stuff despite the fact he was constantly late before the lightning strike. She's also heard the Flash get quite emotional about Barry's father's return, despite the fact he was in a room full of hostages at the time. There's probably other stuff I'm forgetting too. If even Barry's father can put 2+2 together when he's only seen Barry or the Flash for a few minutes in total all season and hasn't been exposed to nearly as many hints about it, then Iris should be able to as well given the things she's seen and how close she apparently is to Barry and how well she's supposed to know him. The actress seems pretty good, but at the end of the day why should I care about her character if they're not going to do anything with her other than have her be the token love interest, which is all she really is at the moment? Flesh Forge posted:Huh, I noticed something ... STRANGE ... in that scene: What's strange in that scene? Also, how did Reverse Flash beat himself up if one of them was a hologram/speed projection? If Reverse Flash was a hologram then none of the hits should have done any actual damage but we saw some, if Well was was the projection then why did he have damage a short while later when we see him? Was the damage from his fight with the Flash? I thought he only got hit by Firestorm successfully in that fight, and never by Barry. Maybe he just beat himself up and made a few bruises and cuts to make it look authentic at some point I suppose. tsob fucked around with this message at 10:51 on Apr 5, 2015 |

I don't know what's strange about it either, except maybe for the shadows. Also, I like to think Wells locked himself in his Gideon room and listened to whatever 25th century version of Linkin Park there will be after he beat himself up.
