8one6 posted:Savitar's suit just made him frictionless so he could use all of his speed. fwiw, I believe the explanation for the suit was that Savitar was so fast that without it he would poof into a fine red mist if the tried to run as fast he was able to. Barry doesn't need the Savitar suit because he's the Main Character. Also that thing was stupid expensive to have on screen all the time.

TwoPair posted:I was stunned at how much I liked Gustin as Crazy Barry. I think he's actually better in that role than Vanilla Barry. If Savitar was "loving crazy" instead of "edgy clone", than I think season 3 would have been way more enjoyable And that’s the thing; literally everyone on the show except for Jesse L Martin is a comedy actor. The show’s at its best when it’s doing comedy and playing to its cast’s strengths. They seem to maybe be getting that this year with the premiere and a lot of the previews and sizzle reels I’ve seen... but we’ll see if they stick to it.

I still say they should find a Wells who stole Thawne’s face instead of the inverse so we can get Matt Letscher back on the show.

Invalid Validation posted:I just reread my last post and forgot to add that sounds like a good idea. Although they might run into the Firestorm problem and not have enough fx money for him to use his powers. They didn't have that much of an issue with Thawne. Matt Letscher was basically a series regular for season 2 and Thawne used his speed powers a ton on the show. Yeah they had that whole "Black Flash will eat me if I go fast" caveat to excuse why he didn't just use his super speed all the time but you never really noticed how it impacted the story too much. So who knows. I'd be cool with with Wally in Legends too. That would rock.

Koalas March posted:I support Wally being on Legends because it dramatically increases the possibility of Iris and Joe popping up during time travel shenanigans We need more small crossovers like this. Like just take advantage of the fact that all four shows are filming in the same city at the same time. Like have Iris on the Waverider for an episode, or send Ray back to STAR Labs to help out with a problem, or have Cisco and Felicity go to Earth-38 for a day to help Winn out with tech poo poo. What’s the point of having a shared universe if you only really share it like once a year?

Rhyno posted:There is almost certainly guest-star pay for the actors that is keeping it from happening every week. True enough. And perhaps I’m just being spoiled by nostalgia for season 1 Flash where between Oliver, Felicity, Laurel and Ray constantly showing up it felt like there was a mini crossover every few weeks for a while.

Something about the way he was talking, and how he no longer had a perfect memory. Yeah, something happened between him and Jesse’s Not Teen Titans team that he’s being coy about and will no doubt be a plot point later this year.

I’m glad they had Barry remember Abracadabra and Savitar namedropping DeVoe. I thought the writers were going to ignore that as an excuse to prolong the mystery, but no they’re getting right into it this year. Good for them.

Prairie Bus posted:This episode made me feel pretty bad for Iris. She only had three other people at her bachelorette party - some random from out of state, her dad’s girlfriend, and a coworker. The show emphasizes that Iris and Caitlin aren’t really friends and then has Iris make Caitlin her maid of honor. Iris and Felicity have known each other for like four years now. I wouldn't exactly call her a rando.

BrianWilly posted:I...feel like this Evil Sioux Activist thing is super offensive somehow but can't quite articulate the reasons. Yep. On the one hand, yay cultural awareness and showing some degree of nuance with it, because, you know the lady had a point with how lovely Native American culture, history, and peoples have been treated over the course of US history... But yeah overall that was really lovely and uncomfortable. Though given what's come out about the Flash writers team and EPs, the cringeyness of certain things lately is starting to make a LOT more sense.

Guy Goodbody posted:I just hope this time the Arrow episode isn't a dream sequence. From what I’ve read the crossover this year was filmed as one giant four hour movie spread out across two nights. So that means that the Supergirl and Arrow portions of it will actually be completely a part of the crossover this time instead of being 90% a stand-alone Supergirl episode and 50% the Arrow 100th episode celebration special, respectively, like last time around.

Autism Sneaks posted:It's not like Microsoft is propping up The Flash like Chuck literally needed Subway to keep going after Season 2, is it? No. They've had a marketing deal with the CW since Arrow was in its second season. I remember seeing some ad once that was like "step into the Arrow writer's room, powered by TV shows have been doing this for a long while now, usually with cars though. 24's Terrorist Torture Time Power Hour was powered by Ford in its last few years, and Heroes more or less kicked off it's main storyline with Hiro screaming "NISSAN VERSA!!" and pointing at a Versa in a parking lot.

Xelkelvos posted:The preview for this episode didn't give me high hopes since it looked to be about Barry turning into a paranoid idiot for an episode. I'm disappointed to know that I wasn't wrong. I honestly thought Barry was going to apologize to DeVoe for what a paranoid shithead he'd been to him over the past few days, and you know, actually take Iris's advice to heart. But then DeVoe drops the act and Barry gets away with acting like an rear end in a top hat moron scot-free again.

6-year plan man posted:Yeah this made no sense you've been leading him on the whole episode driving him mad because he knows deep down you're the villain but he can't prove it only for you to just come clean and announce you're the villain, why?? Because Barry's always right. Even when wrong. It would have been a much better ending if they just had Barry let go of his paranoia, sincerely apologize to DeVoe and just go like "look, if you're evil, you're evil. If you're not, then good. I'm glad. It's no skin off my back, and you seem like an otherwise decent person from what I've seen of you so far. So I'm just gonna keep plugging away doing my thing like I did before I met you and leave you alone and if we run into each other again, then that's on you I guess." Avalerion posted:I kind of want him to be defeated because of something Wally does he didn't prepare for - because he just forgot about him.

VictorianQueerLit posted:The Thinker's downfall will be his heart. If anything, this episode showed that DeVoe's ego is going to be his downfall. The dude's ambition has already hosed him up as seen in the flashbacks, and it'll be his undoing too. And if so then that would be quite thematic, because ego is the supposed antithesis of intellect.

Darth Brooks posted:Barry should have taken him for a ride out into the the desert and then asked him "How smart are You now?" fwiw, I would have laughed my rear end off if Barry did that and then just gets run over by a bus in mid-sentence because DeVoe hired a guy to just drive a rental bus along a very specific route through a very specific part of the desert because there was a 99.9999993% that Barry was going to do that to him, just to prove "Yeah, literally anything you can do with your speed, I can counter with my mind and resources, because even your stupidity is just another mathematical algorithm when you get down to it."
