So why didn't Wally have accelerated healing when he was Kid Flash?

10/6/2016 1:52:35 PM

Hooray for the return of Golden Age Flash! Hope to see him more.

10/17/2016 9:13:55 AM

So how come nobody's clothes catch on fire anymore when they are running?

10/18/2016 11:41:09 PM

Please don't do bad Wells again!

10/27/2016 10:12:04 AM

lol at that guy working for Caitlin's mother. He went from completely normal to completely psycho in about 5 seconds. wtf did he think was gonna happen if he tried to physically restrain her? She literally cooled molten tungsten at 2000 degrees in less time than it took for him to become a psycho.

11/2/2016 9:09:12 AM

lol yes... totally random

11/8/2016 2:49:31 PM

Y'know... I love this show, but is it just me or does everyone turn into a weepy mess every episode.

Like, is there a single episode where Barry doesn't near-tear or cry?

11/29/2016 12:41:29 PM

lol yeah pretty much.

Also, how come so many metahumans become villains? The explosion hits everyone in the city and Barry and Cisco (at least in this dimension) are literally the only good guys with powers? Nobody else decides to be good?

11/29/2016 4:24:08 PM

^ I was wondering that same thing a few weeks ago. Surely someone other than those on team Flash would choose to use their powers for good... I guess they figure they don't want to overcrowd the hero pool. Still, it's not like the good metas can't be killed by the end of the ep.

11/29/2016 5:28:24 PM

HR is Savitar. It's painfully obvious.

3/7/2017 10:00:02 PM

How is it so obvious? Maybe I am missing some things in plain site?
Thanks,

Savitar and H.R. are the only characters who call Wally Wallace.

Savitar claims to have given Wally his speed. H.R. has believed in Wally from the moment he got his powers and has coached him to the level he's reached.

Savitar says that he invented himself. H.R. built an image of himself as a successful scientist on his Earth.

Savitar said he loves a good myth. H.R., being a writer, is familiar with all kinds of stories--and remember, he identified Savitar as "the Hindu god of motion" early in the season.

3/8/2017 12:44:26 PM

Didn't see that one coming but I figured it was someone we know. Also, there was the prophecy that someone on the team would betray them. Add to the list that HR seems completely harmless and likeable that nobody would ever suspect him.

its Wally. possibly Barry or HR

[Edited on March 8, 2017 at 4:34 PM. Reason : there are things pointing at barry and hr so i'm calling it down the middle with wallace]

3/8/2017 4:33:03 PM

ok, just watched the latest episode, and I'm confused, maybe wasn't paying close enough attention, gonna need some help. When they first introduced Savitar didn't they say he was a dude from ancient Babylonia or some shit that first got the power from the speed force? But now somehow it was Barry that gave it to him, and now y'all are speculating that it's someone on the team (yeah, I know, time travel) and even though he only threw him into the speed force a couple weeks/months ago show time, he said he had been trapped long enough that most would lose sanity (which seems like longer than the weeks/months to me), I didn't follow.

3/8/2017 6:22:08 PM

F Jay being trapped back in the speed force. Also, I wish Alan Scott would show up.

3/16/2017 10:31:31 PM

Okay so if Savitar is HR, we at least know it isn't currenty timeline HR since he was talking to Jessie in real time when she was fighting him. That doesn't mean Savitar can't be future HR though.


^^They theorized that he was from ancient Babylonia but I don't think they actually confirmed it. It could just be that the name "Savitar" describes a Babylonian speed god or something and that is why the Savitar we know took his name. I'm thinking that future Barry somehow gives him super speed. As for how he's only been in the speed force for a few weeks, maybe future Barry also threw him in there for longer? Or maybe time works differently in the speed force? I would say maybe it has something to do with time-dilation and relativity but real world physics isn't really applicable to this show...

3/17/2017 9:55:03 AM

I find that having HR being Savitar would be too easy, and make it pretty difficult to trust any future HR....

I wish Barry would reset the Zack Synder timeline

3/27/2017 8:45:18 AM

Just watched last week's episode. What a dumb waste of time.

3/27/2017 10:12:50 AM

yep... i found myself looking at my phone and ignoring it, even thought i was watching a dvr

3/27/2017 10:30:22 AM

So Who's Savitar?

4/25/2017 3:20:56 PM

Rip iris

These CW shows have just gone to shit their past season or two.

They didnt start off great but now they are laughably bad.

5/17/2017 8:34:35 PM

I stopped watching Arrow this year but I enjoy the shit out of The Flash and Captain Cold.

5/18/2017 9:25:12 AM

Well yes Captain Cold is always solid.

5/18/2017 9:47:44 AM

Barry: "This should be easy. I can just use my super powers to phase through the walls and steal this thing."

Cisco: "They have metahuman power dampers everywhere. You won't be able to use your powers."


*King Shark, a metahuman, shows up in literally the next scene, using all of his metahuman superpowers*

5/18/2017 9:55:40 AM

lol nice

didn't even dawn on me

5/18/2017 1:21:43 PM

what a lame finale

5/24/2017 5:33:01 PM

Yeah this show is just not good anymore.

5/24/2017 10:19:13 PM

Can someone give me a tl;dw of this season?

5/25/2017 12:23:32 AM

I don't think "being a big shark man" is the kind of power you can dampen.

poopface had the better observation about that ARGUS facility, though: Why didn't Team Flash try to hide Iris there so Savitar wouldn't pose as much of a threat to her?

5/25/2017 6:58:24 AM

So since Savitar was erased from time and never existed, wouldn't that mean that this whole season (including Wally getting his powers) never happened? I guess they are going split timelines now, but didn't flashpoint already show that their method of time travel results in the timeline being altered?

I guess it is a light hearted comic book show so no big deal-- it is rare that any sci-fi dealing with time travel doesn't end up with a paradox or two.

5/25/2017 8:53:37 AM

it really just felt like whoever wrote the second half of the season didn't even read the first half

5/26/2017 3:08:50 PM

This show is a lumbering mess.

10/16/2017 8:20:33 PM

Yeah... starting to get ... meh. Big epic cliffhanger with both Barry and Caitlin leaving, only for them to return and it be back to normal completely in less than one episode.

Wally is completely useless. Barry gets this new suit with all this technology (including an Iron Man arc reactor beam?? Why does he need that when he can throw lightning?) and that tech villain guy makes him shoot Wally. Aside from the fact that Cisco literally would have had to weave some kind of muscle fiber thing into every component of the suit to make it move Barry, Wally's reaction time to that sort of thing should literally be less than a millisecond. On top of that Barry was yelling that he wasn't controlling himself. Before finishing that sentence, Wally could have picked up the vial of the antivirus stuff and injected the villain with it.

Also, logistically, some things are just annoying in how they don't make sense. I get that Barry can make breakfast super fast. But in order to get that coffee and bring it back, it had to already be made and waiting on the counter at the coffee shop. So he essentially stole someone's coffee. What a dick.

From this thread, I glad I stopped watching, I can only assume arrow is still shit

10/20/2017 12:24:58 PM

Elongated Man might have saved this show for me... for now, anyways.

11/12/2017 8:11:25 PM

Getting worse and worse, mainly due to horribly stupid actors AKA poor writing.

That episode with the Native American woman that was trying to get that artifact back. My god. She broke into some guy's house when she could have just stood outside the window and had the statue retrieve it for her? Then Flash & stretchy guy roll in (I guess Barry just picked him up and ran) and Barry has to save the civilian while the villain escapes. Except Barry can run like Mach 3 and could have been able to do both about 20 times. The only explanation... "You let her get away!"

11/27/2017 3:24:17 PM

Kind of jacked up Jay wasn’t even invited to Barry and Iris’ wedding.

12/5/2017 11:53:57 PM

lol at how bad Starbuck's fake English accent is.

I'd be interested to know how Devoe got Barry's fingerprints on that knife, although given that he is the smartest person to live, I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard for him. Barry could have moved that body and cleaned up the blood before the police broke in though.

Anyone who has read the comics, how does Devoe stack up to other DC super smart guys like Brainiac?

[Edited on December 7, 2017 at 8:42 AM. Reason : ]

12/7/2017 8:39:09 AM

Hmmmm.

Giant building fire. Villain that shoots flames out of his hands and can create a giant vortex of fire. If only there was a member of Team Flash that had special powers to create ice and generate extremely cold temperatures to combat these things.

Nope, let's send in someone completely new to the superhero game that has no idea what she is doing or what she's capable of.

3/16/2018 10:13:27 AM

To be fair, she did have to go there to get all the people out first. At least it’s not Arrow bad yet

3/16/2018 10:24:55 AM

^^ they had some dialogue that was basically barry saying for killer frost to go and then iris came in saying "i can do this"

still not sure why killer frost wasn't also there helping, but they did kind of explain it away

also, the episode before last, the nuclear bomb ep, is easily top 3 flash episodes. do more comicbook shit!

[Edited on March 16, 2018 at 2:56 PM. Reason : ]

3/16/2018 2:55:43 PM

^I will give you that, the nuke episode was really good. I like that it broke from their typical episode structure.

3/16/2018 3:40:31 PM

Iris has super powers now??

3/16/2018 7:24:19 PM

Just for one episode, there is a power transferring bus meta

3/16/2018 9:46:38 PM

Anyone still watching? I think I may be done...

Cicada is this season’s main villain as far as we know. His main power is using his dagger to turn off people’s powers. Why not just shoot him with a gun!?!? Or I guess just a taser or some other non lethal weapon since they are the good guys. They have this elaborate plan to go back in time to trick him and they act like they MUST use their powers.

Or here is another idea. Cicada has to “activate” his dagger. Why not just run up and put some power damping cuffs on him at 2000mph. He would be cuffed/powerless before be even knew what happened. Instead they just stand around talking and waiting for him to throw his dagger.

Or just call Green Arrow. Dude doesn’t even have any powers. He can just shoot him with an arrow and be done with it in 10 mins. Such lazy writing.

12/15/2018 1:28:36 AM
