    Is this gonna be matrix type flash where Barry never got out of the speedforce, but the speedforce tricks him into thinking he has.

    maybe just a new suit :)

    No harm if he has forgotten his past and whatsherface leaves. Then bring back Patti.

    I know it felt like they've rushed Barry back with it resolved in the first episode but I don't think I could have handled "Team Iris" much longer. It could have been fun to be following Cisco and Wally doing their thing ( and failing ) for another episode but Iris just ruined that for me.

    So it's picking up where it left off in writing quality :(:(:mad::mad:

    I wrote this in the DC superthread in relation to The Flash

    Flash was a bit slow at the start but it has at least got less serious and going back to season 1 funny parts (Kid Flash speaking Japanese, The house is so B$%^%in) but with Iris and Kid Flash I see why they had to have Grant Guston back so quick. Iris does not trigger me the way she does other people but ya I hope they drop Iris as the Team Leader soon as it will trigger me like them. They need to do something with her quick or it will be another Green Arrow Felicity thing in The Flash and they can not have that. I do wonder if unveiling The Thinker ( Clifford Devoe) at the start is a good idea.
    I would say the symbols will come in to play later. They looked like some sort of algorithms to me for maybe life, speed, travel.
    . Not a great start but an okay start.#

    Edit: I could I forget Caitlin letting out her inner Hulk (You will not like me when I'm Frosty) I am looking forward to more of that

    So he's faster than ever yet struggled to catch the robot. And I thought going really fast causes him to time travel

    Robot Flying in the air I think that was most of the problem. Once he was able to get on he killed(can you kill a robot) it pretty quick


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,145 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    It was alright of an opener. A bit wishy-washy in how they solved getting Barry out of the Speedforce and stuff though. Caitlyn still being generally awful both as Caitlyn and Killer Frost. No Wells was also a bit of a kicker.

    Still though, they say they're going for more fun this year and no speedster villain, so keeping my hopes slightly up for the rest of the season.

    Always has been a massive flaw with The Flash. If you look at the chase when they slowed it down to slo-mo, the samurai was still moving in the air, so fast was he flying. Even when Iris looks down and sees the lightning streak following, he's clearly not moving that fast. When you think that Barry can also grab his suit off mannequin and change into it at full speed it's beyond ridiculous the things that he can't do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,788 ✭✭✭tvnutz


    Jaysus that was rubbish. After last season being so average I was hoping for something more but the first episode was very similar to the opening last year. The whole cliff hanger ended within half the episode. And Iris' whole plan of if I'm kidnapped he will snap out of it thing was so bad, even worse that it actually worked.

    Used to really enjoy this show so hoping it picks up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 194 ✭✭jrkb


    Really dissapointing episode thought it was all over the place and Caitlin trying to control her inner frosty got boring and stale pretty quick before and now they are going to rehash it all over again.

    I was thinking more...

    I took that whole sequence - particularly some of his babbling.. there was one bit where I thought he might have been talking about a future offspring - as him having lived (from his perspective) for a lot longer in the speed force than 6 months.. possibly even a whole lifetime (didn't Caitlyn suggest something similar).

    Of course it has shades of Savitar/evil Barry from last season, but wouldn't be the first time they're recycling plot elements.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 194 ✭✭jrkb


    I was hoping the symbols were an alien language maybe kryptonian or something similar to set up a future story but wasnt to be.

    She said it was like 6 months to them due to the Speedforce being outside time and space, but could've been something like 10,000 for Barry.

    Oh Christ that was bad.
    This show has all the trapping of great but fumbles it at every stage.

    What the fcuk is Iris meant to be, the Samurai should just have chopped her head off on the street. That would get Flash's attention


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,182 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    was that metron in the chair


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,230 ✭✭✭jaxxx


    Anyone see the trailer for next week? In it, Iris and Barry are talking/arguing and she says "you're not The Flash Barry, we are".

    To say I was triggered is an understatement... why the heck did H.R have to die and not her!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,839 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Any chance you can spoiler future episode stuff?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 873 ✭✭✭somuj


    Used to love this. Last season with Megatron being an evil remnant of Barry was nonsense. Gonna it give it one more episode and its going the way of the Walking dead after season 3 if the quality does not improve.

    Orville is my new favourite of the weeks. Beats arrow and flash.

    Why does this show really bother with cliffhangers if it squanders them in one episode? They should let their new set up play out for a bit otherwise don't bother - it'd be far less frustrating.

    The one good thing I got from this is that it looks like Barry won't be so moany. The show works better when Barry is happier and enthusiastic. And we've got a version of Harry coming back so I'm curious to see which one (and that's not an invitation for people to tell me if they know).
