CW series The Flash

[bicoid18]

Mark Hamill's acting is so over the top

I love it! It's like BTAS Joker brought to life.

Spoiler

I loved the SW references in this episode so far. I geeked out with the "Use the speed force" moment!

That ending was good though. Can't wait to see what happens.

Loved the "I am your father " bit. Nice ESB tribute there. I hope we get to see more of him. That is how you do a villain. Take note Wentworth Miller.

That was a fun episode! A new power, hearing the Joker in live-action , a twist in the Harrison Wells/Reverse Flash storyline, Star Wars reference, Justice League: Doom reference with the wrist bomb, just when you thought it couldn't get any better, this show continues to deliver! Finally IGN gets the ratings right...

It makes me a little sad that so many people are saying "Joker." You're missing out on one of the most well hidden gems of the '90s, if you've never seen Shipp's Flash. This was just such an amazing episode. So much of that retro goodness, from Hamill, Shipp, and all of the Trickster references to one half of Murphy and Bellows being the Mayor of Central City. I really, really hope they have the balls to just go all the way and give us a revival of the classic TV series/epilogue. Just for the interactions between Shipp and Gustin alone. I mean, the blueprint is right in the books, with "The Flash of Two Worlds," but, rather than Jay Garrick, they can give us the OG Barry Allen, one last time.

Also, my guess is that, judging by tonight's events, if Barry succeeds in altering the timeline that, maybe, we get good Dr. Wells, and, perhaps, his wife, on Team Flash next season? Cavanaugh's too awesome not to be a regular, so, I'm really hoping that the whole Face/Off scenario tonight is planting the seeds of his salvation.

Haha, it was moreso that because Hamill voiced the Joker after playing the Trickster in the 90s, the former becoming iconic, it's just funny to hear the voice and envision Joker since it sounds so similar, but I hear ya, it was awesome seeing Shipp and Hamill in the same room together.

 

[batfan08]

That's yet another reason I'd love to see a crossover. How awesome would it be to see the two Barrys talk about how weird it is that the same dude became the same Trickster in two parallel universes over coffee?

I really enjoyed the backstory on Eobard and how he took the guise of Harrison Wells and all. Best superhero show on TV right now. I wish they had thrown in a line from Hamill to Barry's dad asking him if they knew each other because he looked a little bit familiar. The only thing that I was a tiny bit disappointed with was not seeing Hamill in his original costume from the 90's show. I know they showed it in his lair but it would have been so cool, and cheesy, to see him in the outfit again.

This show just continues to impress.

I am really liking the show, but there is an element of "cheapness" to it (probably not the right word). What I mean is that with the time travel element in play, the writers are free to get as crazy as they want (kill people, reveal big secrets, etc.) with no reprecussions because the reset button can get pressed at any moment. They have already done it with Cisco's death and Iris learning Barry is the Flash. I just hope there is a solid resolution at the end.

There's a cheesiness to the show, but I like it.

That might be a better word for it.

I think Wells warned him about that, that there would be consequences to going back in time and changing things, which also happens in Flashpoint Paradox when he changes the history of the DCU. Perhaps they can also introduce the element/theory from The Time Machine where he can't save someone and they will die in all kinds of different ways and he has to live through each one or something like that to keep him from accessing the Speed Force all the time. : Just some ideas... I know the two brands are trying to make their shows dark, but as long as it has a great story and great episodes with a great cast and lead that delivers every week, I don't care how cheesy it is, I'm all in!

another two weeks break?!

I know right...didn't The Flash and Arrow just come back from a break?

 

[sifu74]

Here's what I don't get. Harrison Wells was a genius, but was Thawne? Since Thawne took Wells body, but not his brain, how can Thawne still continue to make billions from Wells genius? Also, so sad to see the real Wells and his wife die like that.

Thawne is considered intelligent. The thing is that thawne had a huge obsession with the Flash. I would assume he knows his science but I think the particle accelerator wouldn't be his strong suit. Is my guess.






I know what you mean, Ski. But like it says the future will always do the same ****. So it could still happen. Also I like the idea of Wells existing still after a defeat of Thwane. I was also thinking what if one series was eventually dedicated for Paradox; but the action in Flash is one of my favorites. So I don't know too much about that.


Overall this episode was great. I did think last week's was a bit weak after the whole Weather Wizard, but man, this did not disappoint!

 

[a-dev]

Haven't been watching this but I happened to see some of the latest one, Hamill was a blast Loved that bit ''How unsanitary!''

 

[GasparZizou]

Oh man, back to the awesome quality of the show, last episode was a bit weak imo.

But this one was fantastic, Hamill's performance and voice channeling the Joker was simply eargasmic.
