re: The Flash Season One Thread

I dont have a problem suspending belief for this show, but it just did seem very well thought out. If Cap Cold would have built something that added the cold effect as a shield around is body or a certain area around his person it would have been much better, and the cross streams thing would make more sense.

I enjoyed it for what it is.

One of the inherent problems with the Flash is that eventually the only villain that should logically be able to take him on is the Reverse Flash because of how completely over powered the Speedforce is. You have to just accept that a lot of Barry's fights arnt going to make sense for the sake of telling an interesting story.

I'm supposed to believe that Captain Cold went away and devised a plan to kill the flash. That plan was to walk down the street with another guy with a heat gun.
If you want to go that route fine, have the Flash be cocky and easily disarm both guys and have them arrested, then have them humiliated and then freed from the truck with an angle for vengeance. Don't expect me to believe they're an equal match to the Flash though. If the reverse-flash can easily disarm 15 police officers in a confined space.
Let's not put any thought into our plot and see how it turns out. Then tell everyone to "suspend belief".

Cold evidently figured they would lose to the Flash. I don't think his plan was to beat the Flash, just to have him reveal himself to the world. I thought that was pretty evident by his dialog in the patty wagon.

The Reverse Flash is currently a lot faster than Flash on the show. But with that said, Flash did evacuate a passenger train during a wreck midstream, so your point still stands.
Keep in mind that Flash's rogue gallery teams up in his comics because they realize they don't stand a chance. The Flash on the show is still trying to "learn" how to use his powers. My theory on Cold's ultimate plan was/is to reveal the Flash to the criminals of Central City, and then get them to band together to fight him together (hence the Rogues). I don't think he ever planned on beating Flash in that battle.

That's perfectly fine, but if that's the case let's have Flash back up his reputation by easily handling the both of them with little drama rather than making it seem like an epic battle.

I actually like Snart's character.. Heatwave was a little lame though.
The way they explained it on Reddit was that the cold gun isn't just frost it actually creates a field in the air around the gun as well as the beam that slows down molecules. which means Barry slows down a lot when he's near snart

you also have to realize that the freeze gun was designed in order to stop the flash. im sure it has some sort of anti flash properties to it since Cisco designed it as an "oh,shite we need to stop this speedy fricker"

just like Loki in The Avengers, winning the battle was never the point of picking the fight.

I've been psyched to see Grodd ever since they teased him in the pilot!

Well, I guess that confirms the identity of the Reverse Flash beyond a doubt. 
Posted on 1/27/15 at 7:19 pm to PsychTiger
So did that

Or future Barry Allen? Was it me or was Well's colors red with yellow streaks when he ran from the glass.
Either way, I think he is one of the 2 that got stuck in the past when Barry's mom died

Just can't figure out why reverse flash would help Barry master his speed.
Posted on 1/27/15 at 7:34 pm to Darkknight
Has to be future flash or Barry. Red lightning and not yellow.
Posted on 1/27/15 at 7:36 pm to Puck82
He's not in the yellow suit.
Posted on 1/27/15 at 7:38 pm to PsychTiger
Not sure the suit has anything to do with their streak color. If so why red when wearing black?
Posted on 1/27/15 at 7:42 pm to PsychTiger
Have they ever shown Wells putting on the yellow suit? He has the suit in his secret chamber, but not necessarily wearing it
