The Flash TV Series Thread

One way mirrors don’t really exist. All it is is glass with a metallic coating sprayed on one side with a bright light shined on one side. Makes it hard to see through it if you are standing on the same side as the bright light.

I love how Arrow is doing everything they can to remove any possible trace of superhuman abilities by explaining it through science. And then Flash is like “Oh yeah, we got a super genius talking monkey”.

Aw fuck, I missed last night’s ep…

Apparently I missed motherfucking GORILLA GRODD?!?

My sadness… It is so profound…

You got bribed by Sennin, you deserve what you get.

he isnt fully grodd just yet. he isnt “im gonna make the legion of doom” status just yet.

and am i crazy but wasnt grodd from a village of super inteligent apes?

He was in the old DCU.

Not too sure about New 52 Grodd, so I’m not sure which one they’re primarily pulling from.

Grodd’s village was given psionic abilities by aliens in old DCU. I don’t believe this has changed in New 52, but Grodd’s origins in New 52 have not been made clear.

Yup, and theyre not even doing it good right now. Like, niggas getting kicked off mountains after getting stabbed through the chest/lung, and soup heals this nigga. Okay. I mean, at least make the lazarus pit be a scientific “soup” that got jacked, and is now being used on ollie to regenerate him to perfect health+, or vastly increase his healing speed.

For a show taking itself so serious, and doing a decent job at it, they completely dropped the ball on this ollie resurrection shit.

I think even Amell knows the last few episodes have been pretty whack, based on his FB.

Whatever. My wild theory is that Thea will become Speedy by end of season, anyway.

Back to Flash discussion. Moar drunk Caitlin.

Nothing about S3 Arrow has been attempting to be scientific.

Nor are they trying to deny the existence of superhuman abilities. They’ve already met Barry, and even Thea has seen him (he ran past her in the crossover). All they’re doing is attaching science to the powers, instead of metagenes or people just randomly having powers out of nowhere.

It is what it is. There is mysticism, magic, and superscience flying all over the place. They’re just trying to keep Arrow focused on the less outrageous metas, and saving all of the super-hax for Flash.

In truth, the Flash is trying to be scientific as well. It’s not like these powers literally came out of nowhere. Save for Dr. Wells, everybody else’s powers is based off the particle accelerator. They then use some form of science to vaguely explain the villain’s powers. It’s pretty much given Dr. Wells used some sort of time travel device, or gotten super speed via a particle accelerator to run back in time.

Point is, even though Flash has wonky science, it’s still science. Arrow still has pretty much impossible acts of physical power and skill, but not as absurd as Flash.

It’s called the Charles Atlas superpower. Or, being Not-Batman.

Damn you Cisco, trying to use the Little Old Lady to bait Barry. Let the man get laid!

Woooo look at this PRIME Cougar we got here… good stuff there…nice.

More Caitlin looking tasty as usual…

along with Malese Jow (salad-toss worthy) who is apparently a regular for now. I’m loving how there’s just a touch of jealousy basically radiating from her at this point, since she overheard that Barry has attained a 2nd date with this girl.

Mal Duncan shout out.

And damn, Linda does not waste time.

Life seems to want to prevent Barry from getting laid. And Iris is simultaneously helping and not helping.

More like EVERYONE with that cock block.

WHOAHHHHHHH
"I don’t have those feelings for you anymore"

Honey just got Shut the hell DOWN. Oh this is too juicy, I’m loving it.

A Ghost Chili? Barry are you suicidal?! You god damn fool!
