Why would ANY newspaper talk about economy on the front page when the world is about to end?

Uhhh why do they keep killing the villains? This is not a movie guys, it's a TV show, it's okay if they come back for another episode. I'll just assume it was a clone and not the real guy. Oh, and that

Rhyno posted:I'm really curious to see if CBS allows that. But the CW guys have said they want a third show and they are setting up two new heroes this season. If they were talking about the Atom and Firestorm, eh... I don't think I'd watch either of those.

Not the best episode so far... but it did have the Grodd reveal. And that boomerang joke.

They're kinda going overboard with all the killing. 3 out of 5 characters of the week have been killed so far. Are the Rogues the only ones that'll stick around or what.

Oracle posted:I agree with this. We won't get a talking gorilla, we'll get a CGI gorilla giving significant glances as it communicates telepathically. Guys, what if... Grodd's been controlling Wells all along and he's the real big bad of the season? This is me finding excuses to keep Wells as part of the team, I can't picture them without him once he goes full on evil.

tsob posted:I can, because in a lot of the interactions he's not actually there at all or only there on the sidelines and not really interacting significantly. Like, this last episode he only says one line during the wall running calculation scene, doesn't even say anything during the water running one I think and isn't in the bar at the end of the episode at all. He's pretty much the de-facto leader of Team Science at the moment and Barry eventually has to take that position anyways I suppose. They're minimizing his presence in a lot of those scenes specifically so he can be cut without major loss to the feel of the show I would imagine. Yeah, he only said a couple of lines this episode because he was too busy giving evil glances around the room, and when it came to deal with the military, it was him who covered for them. He's the grown up of the group, and without him, they're just a bunch of kids playing hero club. And really, I don't see Barry as much of a leader as he is right now.

Deadpool posted:Stephen Amell was not very happy with how DC announced the new Flash movie. That's kinda stupid. He knows it won't be connected to the tv shows, so what does it matter? Not to mention it's going to be four years away from now. The tv show's popularity would only hurt the movie in the end, not the other way around.

Aphrodite posted:Only one of them is Marvel's Quicksilver. Yes, the one that is Magneto's son. It'll be interesting to compare the special effects between all three speedsters once Avengers 2 is out. Flash's so far have been really good, especially for a tv show.

Was the guy "covered in flames" that Iris mentioned Firestorm or some other Human Torch-esque character I'm unaware of?VDay posted:Also I'm still having a blast watching this but I can't wait for the crossover episodes. I think the villains have been the weakest part of the show so far and having Nick Tarabay show up for an episode or two will do the show a lot of good. It's been fine in these first few episodes since the show is obviously focusing on Barry's development/origin, but hopefully the villains (or at least the actors they get to play them) start improving once the show gets most of that out of the way and inevitably gets more procedural. Wells has been a pretty great villain so far. Either way, your fears will be put at ease once Grodd takes the center stage.

Just watched the latest episode, aaaaand we're back to killing villains. I'm almost sure Arrow had a lower death rate during its first 7 episodes than The Flash has so far (not counting any random goons that got arrow'd).

Hollismason posted:but the meta human of the week has to continue because against normal people he's kind of crazy powerful. Captain Cold did pretty okay despite being a regular human. Your chances of not ending up dead against The Flash are probably higher if you're not a meta anyway.

The Arrowverse is starting to sound like a post Flashpoint universe that originated from the original Flash tv show.

The whole episode will revolve around Barry trying to find Trickster's misplaced medication. I wouldn't have too many complaints about that.

Put me down on the future Eddie being the Reverse Flash camp. Wells is slowly gathering all the necessary things to steal/duplicate Barry's powers (electric vamp's blood, prototype thing) and will eventually give them to someone else to create the Flash's nemesis so he can be a better hero for the future and all that jazz. This is all based on the fact that Tom Cavanagh would look ridiculous in the yellow suit and not nearly as bulky as RF seemed to be. So of course, I must be right.

Flesh Forge posted:I'm almost certain they're going to run the Reverse Flash metaplot for as long as the show is going to be running, so yes I'm glad they're setting up a good variety of other poo poo going on. As long as they don't get it too cluttered and meandering like some of CWs other long-running shows I'm sure it'll be just as fun 5 years from now as it is today. Eh, RF's plot could easily get resolved this season. There's more than one evil Flash in the comics, so they could use a different one down the line.

Speaking of Jay, I still want some confirmation that metas existed before the particle accelerator. Wasn't Barry supposed to be investigating strange happenings before the accident? The poor guy could've spent all that time taking naps or something instead.

bobkatt013 posted:I doubt that since Reverse Flash mentioned that they have fought a bunch already. What if RF is actually Zoom from the comics universe who travelled to this dimension because he was tired of losing all the time and then Wells learned of this parallel Earth where superheroes exist unlike his dimension so he deviced a scheme to ensure metahumans were born and then How long until the next episode airs?

I... didn't quite get whether Piper was a meta or not. His only "power" was Really Crappy Hearing, so... why is he even getting locked up in the lab cells? Also, I want an alternate timeline created at the end of this season where a non-evil Wells stays with the group. He's a great Prof. X figure.

Everyone's doing a pretty good job so far, even Eddie. He was awesome in that crossover episode with Arrow. The only character that is really going nowhere fast is Iris. I'm starting to like her even less than Laurel in season 2.
