    Another disgustingly bad Flash episode. Shows like this need to take a look at shows like Banshee. Cut the amount of episodes back, cut the filler bullshit and deliver quality episodes on a week by week basis. None of this posing interesting questions and dilemmas only to fill the next three episodes duelling with three fuckwit villains you don't give a shit about.

    Pied Piper, Captain Cold, Heat Wave and Weather Wizard are all significant Flash characters.

    The flash has three primary enemies,

    Reverse-flash
    Gorilla Grodd
    and the Rogues (Captain Cold, leading a team of Heat Wave, Mirror Master, Weather Wizard, Trickster and sometimes Captain Boomerang and Pied Piper)

    I think the general idea is they are working up to all 3 storylines in the next season and a half.

    I thought that was a cracking episode of flash.

    Yeah, agreed. Last weeks episode was pretty shit following the epic cliffhanger/mid-season finale, but I thought this episode was great. Good to see that they actually focused on building on to the Wells reveal, rather than just waiting until another cliffhanger episode.

    Fuck they're some poor main villains then.
     
  6. Athlai JJD Heads

    It's sorta the point. The rogues are a group of second grade villains who need each other to succeed. Captain Cold gets pretty awesome too. Favourite Ice based villain now by a long margin.

    So are they even gonna explain how Oliver came back from the dead or are they just gonna run on with the show now and hope nobody questions it further :/
     
  8. Cribbage RG Cribb

    The latter IMO.
     
  9. Athlai JJD Heads

    Yeah sincerely hoping Eddie is reverse flash proper and wells is a knockoff.

    Reckon Wells is a reverse flash from the future that has lost his powers. Possibly at the hands of the other dude/Eddie.

    Eddie's too young to be from the future surely?

    Time travel has been confirmed for future episodes of the Flash, so I wouldn't rule anything out yet.

    From a comic-book perspective I think the likelihood of multiple "Reverse-flash" characters is probably fairly likely.

    The thing is, Wells is probably most easily described as Professor Zoom/Reverse Flash aka Eobard Thawne. Who would also be the Reverse Flash that is most likely to be Eddie.

    Zoom, The Rival, Thaddius and co. are all different and don't have the "from the future" vibe.

    My ideal situation is that Flash fights Wells and wins, at a similar time Eddie proposes to Iris, she refuses and Eddie puts his hand through her skull and reveals he also killed Barry's mother.

    Reverse Flash coming from the future to torment Barry is the best IMO. "I killed your mum and fucked your girlfriend" The biggest and most impressive dog act of super villainy possible.

    :laugh:

    Yeah, I was thinking this too.

    Perfect example of a show building up to an epic season with an other worldly mid-season finale only to fall flat on it's arse in the proceeding episodes - Arrow.
     
  18. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    I think the 2nd half has been really good so far.
     
  19. Cribbage RG Cribb

    It's been okay. I can't help but feel Oliver coming back to life has just been a huge cop out though. There were so many crazy theories about it in the mid-season break and the answer seems to be that he just survived that stabbing + massive fall. I'd have been much happier if the show extended its sci-fi element to a much more unrealistic point than what it did which was extending its coincidence/luck element to an absurd point.
     
  20. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Yeah I think Lazarus pit would have been the best way. But then again there's nothing to say we won't find out how it happened through the flashbacks later in the series
