The Flash (CW Series) thread, season 9

[evansst]

Zoom is an incredible villian

Not even. Team Flash are just incredible idiots. HE GAVE AWAY HIS HOSTAGE BEFORE RECEIVING PAYMENT. AND THEY STILL ******* PAID HIM WHILE THEY HAD SUPERCHARGED BARRY AND 2 YOPPAS POINTED AT HIM.

I'm just getting caught up on everything so the details are pretty fuzzy for me. I know if I think about it I will probably think a lot of the actions are stupid. I just saw this Collider article asking why would Zoom even care about Caitlyn if that was his time remnant and was like :\

I like Zoom's demonstrative actions I guess.

They asked us to suspend too much disbelief this episode. Like I just outran and caught this fool with ease, but i'm gon just give it to him now.

That's when he traveled to supergirl's earth and was in the crossover episode.

But how would we have known this from the episode itself? I guess to the flash team it just looked like a blip.

He was only gone seconds/minutes max

We the audience wouldn't. They messed up 

. If you didn't know there was a flash supergirl crossover then that scene would make no sense to you.

It would have been too big of a distraction

I agree but then that goes back to the poor planning and organizing.

How about lets not have Barry try out his speed enhancer device and immediately send him to another Earth just for him to come back a split second later and not talk about it. They could've had a whole filler ep where when he came backs something followed him and he has to defeat it (like the time wraith ep) instead of hand waving it away early in an ep where you face off with Zoom again and he ends up taking Barry's speed.

The main thing they drop though is Barry is not only faster but now fast enough to break through dimensional barriers, meaning this ep didn't need Cisco opening a breach. Barry could've just kept training and learn how to get Earth-2 but they strangely drop the entire thing.

It's also weird that Barry spent like an entire day on Supergirl's Earth, got in to 2 fights, had some lunch and came back to his Earth with literally no time passing. Cisco doesn't even brng up how Barry literally ran through a portal and came out another one a second later

Because Barry accidentally traveled to Earth 3 and got stuck there. If Kara wasn't a super alirn he'd still be on Earth 3 right now. What speedster is there on Earth 2 to throw Barry into a wormhole? Having Cisco learn to control his power means Barry will never just get stuck on another Earth.

That was honestly another problem with the Supergirl ep now that we saw this recent ep.

In this recent ep Barry is faster than ever. 4x faster or w/e they said. He's now faster than Zoom they say. He was playing possum when Zoom was chasing him, he honestly should've just curb stomped Zoom with the speed like he did him. That aside when Barry got to Supergirl's Earth for w/e reason he wasn't fast enough to open up that portal again but he got their on his own.

If Barry had somehow ran to Earth-2, he would've had to beat Zoom first before figuring out a way home and if he was really way faster than him he could've especially since Zoom has nobody smart enough to recreate the device that steals speed. After Barry beats Zoom on Earth-2 he could've just teamed up with his Earth-2 self and try to figure a way back to Earth-1. If he really wanted to risk it he could've made a velocity-10 along with the speed enhancer device and take his chances running back to his Earth.

They asked us to suspend too much disbelief this episode. Like I just outran and caught this fool with ease, but i'm gon just give it to him now.

I think they explained in some ep that if Barry stayed in a timeline that was different he'd eventually just lose his memories of the timeline he is originally from.

or maybe that was a Legends of Tomorrow ep that was explained

Either way, Zoom eventually gained the memories of the Zoom pretending to be Jay. I think

 

[KingParappa]

Show is falling apart at the seams. Stupid *** plot induced stupidity

Ok i'm rewatching. He said "I'm back, how long was I gone?" I guess that was the hint

 

[aepps20]

Zoom is an awesome villain. I wish he would win in the end because he is one of the better villains we've had on the CW superhero shows in a long time.

 

[Master Zik]

I thought the dude playing Jay was boring at first, just getting by portraying a good guy and questioned if he could pull off being a villain but it seems that's why he got the role. Son had this crazed look in his eye playing a serial killer, talking with Barry while "captured", and again when he got Barry's speed

It would be cool if he won and the show just started following him.

. If you didn't know there was a flash supergirl crossover then that scene would make no sense to you. 

I think that's the point though. Because they're on different networks, their shooting schedules are different and too hard to do too many crossovers until the CW shows. I think this way it was an easy way to acknowledge the crossover without spending too much time on it. Since Barry didn't learn anything that contributed to the show on Earth-3, there is no need to mention it until Supergirl does finally come to the Flash. At that time he can mention this fact and Team Flash will just act like it's business as usual.

 

[KingParappa]

It is weird that he doesn't mention that he ran fast enough to open a breach in the episode he's trying to open a breach tho.

 

[youngcurse]

Zoom sound like a stalker lol

 

[shogun]

Who did wells kill? I don't remember that.

 

[slighted]

Zoom sound like a stalker lol

[Top Boy]

If this does pan out =

Just lazy writing, imo.

 

[Master Zik]

Ep was filler but okay.

@ Zoom killing Killer Frost.

Still nowhere with the man in the iron mask. At least Caitlin at least had concern and wondered how to free him.

 

[pr0phecy718]

Nice to see that Barry's dad will be in next week's episode ...kinda random for him to show up but ok lol

He took a break from getting yambs to help his frail son.

 

[Top Boy]

Them Caitlyn yambs got my mans having illusions of grandeur.

This will be his downfall.

Russell Zolomon.

 

[Cashflow]

Iris got so moist when Barry said she was the first person he saved

 

[bossdonvah]

What was the point of going back to Earth 2 to defeat zoom when zoom was dying anyway ?

 

[oidreez]

Well remember flash wanted to go back to save the guy in the iron mask anyway
