...a manned satellite.

So... a space station?

Vee · « **Reply #361 on:** May 26, 2015, 03:56:17 AM »

Sure, but it was in orbit, so still a satellite. Also they refer to it as a 'satellite barely bigger than a coffin'.

I think this show might be subscribing to the Doctor Who 'timey-wimey' theories of time.

Basically "Well, it works like this - first we start at an - oh, look! An eagle!" *runs out the door*

Spoiler for Hidden:
If they subscribe to the personal timeline theory from Doctor Who - Eddie killing himself wouldn't undo everything done to that point because Eddie didn't kill himself until that point in Eobard's timeline. Eobard has to exist until the moment he witnesses his ancestor die because he was the cause for his ancestor to kill himself. One the loop completed Eobard no longer needed to exist and could not exist.

I think I've gone cross-eyed.

Two questions about the finale. Right before Future Flash whisked young Barry out the door, Henry was standing there in a shirt and tie - no jacket, sweater, etc. - while urging young Barry to run. Then, when Future Flash and young Barry left, Henry disappeared. I may be forgetting something from the premiere, but...

Felderburg · « **Reply #365 on:** June 03, 2015, 10:21:40 PM »

Henry was lying on the floor. He got knocked over by future Flash saving young Barry. Regardless of clothing, it was definitely the guy. Continuity error? Production error? I don't know. But it was definitely him.

Another error in the scene: when we first see Henry interrogated, they ask why his prints were on the knife. He says it's because he's a doctor, he had to stabilize the wound. In the finale, the knife is lying on the floor (next to Henry) so he wouldn't have had to do that.

The only other place that I can recall seeing Tom Cavanaugh is on Scrubs, as J.D.'s brother, and, from that, I wouldn't have guessed that he could put on such a performance as he did in the last few episodes of this show's first season. Great villain.

Tenzhi · « **Reply #367 on:** June 10, 2015, 05:52:41 AM »

Ah, that's why he looked familiar. Usually I look these things up, but I never got around to it.

Tenzhi · « **Reply #368 on:** June 11, 2015, 06:40:48 AM »

Wait, so episode 23 was the finale? What an abrupt ending that leaves too many questions...

Vee · « **Reply #369 on:** June 21, 2015, 08:00:10 PM »

This isn't so much about the show but there's no thread called 'insane stuff Vee found reading old comics' (yet) so here's one.

Been reading the full run of all the bats stuff (i'm up to 1982, yay me) and my jla readings found something funny. initially at least, though Prof. Stein was aware when they were Firestorm and could talk to Ronnie, it wasn't like on arrow or the cartoons where they had to be in the same place and both decide to become him. Ronnie could change to Firestorm at will, and no matter where Stein's body was he'd just disappear. And despite the awareness during, when he'd return he'd have no memory whatsoever of where he was or what he was doing. So basically this respected Professor suddenly starts disappearing and having blackouts and at least up to the point I'm at which is a few years after Firestorm's introduction, Ronnie never goes to explain it to him so he could try to come up with some decent excuses or whatnot, and y'know, know he's not crazy.

I'm just imagining an editorial meeting where Conway and Milgrom propose this new hero and the editor's response is 'I really love this kid who gets his powers from having his professor inside him, but could you do anything to make it a bit more rapey?'

Proooobably should have posted this 4 weeks ago, but they're reairing every episode of The Flash on the CW on Tuesdays! So anyone who missed episodes should watch them. They're also going up online after they reair, so you can catch up, too.

BTW - fun Metal remix of the main theme.

Word from Comic Con is that Geoff Johns said Jay Garrick will definitely be in this season of Flash.

Vee · « **Reply #374 on:** July 12, 2015, 02:21:24 PM »

of course he will, no one's going to let a sweet hat like that go without a fight.

Vee · « **Reply #375 on:** July 15, 2015, 02:32:11 AM »

Latest season zero comic thickens the plot on the Caitlyn front even more. Evidently her mentor was a thermal physicist.

And there were massive hints dropped that he wouldn't be the only Earth-2 hero that would pop up. I would love to see Stargirl, and since she's Geoff Johns most prized creation... I wouldn't be surprised to see her at some point.

The Flash 2015 Comic Con Sizzle Reel

Most of the video is a recap of season 1, but the last 90 seconds or so give us hints at what's coming.

Spoiler for Hidden:

Comments on the video on Facebook were also talking about additional things that have been confirmed for season 2. Some, of course, are less surprising than others.

So, there I was walking across the lobby and Glee was on the TV. Something makes me stop and watch for a minute. After a moment my conscious mind catches up to my subconscious perception and I'm like 'where do I know that guy from?'... After checking the episode on imdb.com I figured out that it's Barry Allen himself! Actors be messing with my mind.
