TV: The Flash (CW)
- Thread starter Jussi

I really like the special effects in the latest episode and the fights were well done. The show doesn't have the budget of a movie obviously, but I think its effects style doesn't require it anyways. Very effective and just overall sick. Even Firestorm was extremely well done imo.

I'm just afraid they'll run into the same problems Smallville had and spend their fx budget well before the season's end.

Why put speculations in spoiler tags?
I got the impression that the "Reverse Flash" was remote controlled.

because some of it has happened in the comics in one form or another and in case the follow one thread or plot lone of the comic--people do not want to ruin it for those who have not read the comics
This show one of the reasons why I cant stand most television. Theres so much potential bogged down by terrible writing and weak plot lines,
First episode was really weak, didn't even finish it
Just one example is where barry allen sees the villain then later tells the detective "it was (name), yeah I know he died in a tragic plane crash 12 years ago but I know it was him"
Painful

Bumping this up after the episode today.
I can't be the only one who thought the whole scuba firestorm thing was dumb. No reason to suspect it to be an acronym.

Yeah... It was rather dumb... One of those cringe moment you have sometimes with this show. This and the cheesiness of Cold/Heat

It drove me nuts that they just let barry fight those two guys in the middle of a city street and didn't just pop a couple snipers in buildings a block away and shoot them.

I don't know, I thought the same thing but I didn't really see it as a plot hole. Just more the police were shocked that some guy with super speed did exist and was challenged to a fight. I didn't feel like it was a big thing for the show to ask considering how it stages itself.

I'm about 85% sure that [spoil]Harland is one of the future Flashes, probably Bart Allen/Impulse. I'm guessing he used his speed to travel back in time and, in the process, lost his connection to the Speed Force.[/spoil]

Oh well, then... I'm rather sure Harrison is not a future Flash. Wells uses the anti speed force (Red lighting), Barry uses the speed force (Yellow lighting.). He's most certainly a future reverse flash though. I'm betting on Eddie and Iris kid or grandkid.
Most reverse flash are time travelling users, so it would fit the narrative. Why does he do all that ? Who knows. I have no theory for this one.

Wells has to be a relative of Barry since he has the Flash Ring
Also, I am thinking they are merging Wally with Barry with the intro of Linda

This version of The Flash is sort of a hybrid of Barry Allen and Wally West based on the story from the comics. Wally's wife from the comics was paid homage to in the first episode as the reporter.
If they do bring in Wally later on, he's going to be really young. He's Iris's nephew in the comics and since her and Barry are in their early 20s, he must be like 10-11 at oldest.
Barry Allen in the comics was a little older. He was in his early 30s when the accident happened, not his early 20s.
