"The Flash" Season 1 discussion thread

[I AM WARHOL]

Just finished the episode and all i can say is .
Some of the storylines where a tad bit rushed but the time paradox reset should fix. I was sitting here like so they're letting all the cats out of the bag? All in all great episode

IGN discussion:

Spoiler warning! Seriously, there were so many reveals in the most recent Flash episode that we can't help but spoil - and predict - the future for the Scarlet Speedster.

Merlyn is bad enough. I'm not even saying one is better than the other because they're trying to do two different things and have two different tones but I'm always interested in what goes on in Arrow whether it's with Ra's, Merlyn, the atom, slade, amanda..it's all good stuff and they've done a lot of great character stuff this season specifically with Ollie

The Merlyn stuff is tired too. Everything has become redundant on Arrow for me. The Atom/Ray is basically just Felicity's boyfriend. Amanda (along with Maseo and Tatsu) is the only part I really enjoy. I'd really like to see her on The Flash.

IGN discussion:

This is interesting as the Reverse-Flash is seen as a anti-hero instead of a straight up villain. Does the end justify the means? I would actually like to see him become a villain as maybe he can crossover into some Arrow episodes as the Reverse Flash.

I also watched Flashpoint Paradox this weekend. Was definitely blown away by how violent it was. I'm guessing this is the route that everyone believes this will go. It also made me come up with a few weird scenarios:

-Barry goes back into time; saves his mother
-Barry goes back into time; saves his mother but his father dies
-Barry goes back into time; saves his mother and father but his young self dies.
-Barry goes back into time; saves everyone

Now I'm sure there is more but these are the main ones that popped up in my head. I'm curious to see if the creators will deviate a little from the Flashpoint Paradox storyline here as each of the scenarios that I presented here presents unknown consequences which can end up shaping the future of the series in a number of ways. It's safe to assume I think that Barry will travel to the future, to Eobard Thawne's timeline.

With Mark Hamill reprising his role and the costumes for the trickster is identical to that of the original show and coincidentally his father was the original Flash from the show, I wonder if that 90's show is canon???

Since Shipp also played Barry Allen, I'm assuming that's not the case.

Maybe he's Barry Allen Sr. orrrr, alternative realities since time travel is now officially involved.

That episode was amazing
Not only does this show do action and surprise twists very well, but it will hit u with an emotional scene like this out the blue

I'm not expecting this episode to be great. After the emotional highs/greatness they gave us last week, then going back into time at the end, it's kinda like they are cooling things down before heating them up again near the end of the season.

Time travel and alternate outcomes should be intriguing though.
