🤔 Thinking Imagine how horrible it must feel when Barry accidentally resets/runs back in time. The people from the original timeline are completely erased

Just kinda sad when you think about it, he completely just erases everyone he know from time and created new versions of them and although it’s still basically them, they’re still not the exact versions that he knew before

🤔 Thinking So what did Savitar even eat during his time of trying to kill Barry and Team Flash?

226 Upvotes

I mean with all the shit he did, makes you sort of wonder what the man even ate. He’s the god of speed sure, but at the same time he can’t starve either, so what did he even eat?

🤔 Thinking Did Thawne actually create the Flash?

Post image
133 Upvotes

If in the show Eobard Thawne originally discovered the Flash in his own future timeline, that means Barry already existed as the Flash before Thawne ever went back in time. But when Thawne traveled to the past and killed the real Harrison Wells, he basically created the particle accelerator explosion that gave Barry his powers. So… how does that make sense? Did Thawne essentially create the Flash, or was the Flash always supposed to exist anyway? Is this just a closed time loop or some kind of paradox where Thawne’s obsession ends up ensuring Barry’s creation?

Question A character suddenly becomes super intelligent for some reason. Spoiler

Upvotes

Iris. Im on S5E2
And yes, i get it all these comments on older posts about how Iris hate is soooo original and what not.
Genuinely tho, how? how a reporter with no background in science suddenly becomes smarter or on bar with a team stacked on PhDs, suddenly she can write algorithms and hack into things, suddenly she knows physics.
Im sorry, whilst i loved Iris at the start of the show, besides S1, it feels like the writers are just pulling her character traits and development out of thin air.

So the people that defend her character development and role in the show, i would like to hear the explanation on how any of this makes sense to you? I get how she became a leader when Barry dipped, well not entirely but i get it, Barry told her to hold the fort, but how the hell does she suddenly know most of the sciences and also, what the hell is up with "We are the flash", my god is this Irish agenda the writers got ruins the show so much.

TL;DR - I dont get the love the defense of Iris, one minute she is a journalist the other she is "We are the flash" and can program, hack, understand physics and most of what 4 of the most brilliant minds on the show can do, how can this be defended or make sense?

🤔 Thinking Flash ideas

Upvotes

If you guys could do anything to change the flash what would it be? Personally I’d like to make the show just 7 seasons with a continuous arc(no villian can make Barry break his moral code) and also the underlying plot that thawne is and always will be his true enemy (basically after season 1 he still manipulates Barry’s life through his negative speed force which is later explained in season 7 when thawne returns but this time it actually can make some sense) I’d do szn 4 Godspeed a childhood friend of Barry, season 5 the thinker but with a real motive that actually makes sense (can further explain if you want) season 6 being cobalt blue but instead of it being Eddie I had an idea where in the timeline thawne messed up (the og) Barry has some sort of brother that gets adopted by the thawne lives a terrible life has no idea of Barry until eobard from the negative speed force influences him to know but this story Barry tries to bring him to light and he basically succeeds but right as he does thawnes hand goes right through his heart leaving a cliffhanger right into the final season. This may seem like a ton BUT trust me if you see the stories I have for it it kind of all comes together lmk what u think or if I sound stupid

🤔 Thinking Do you guys think Daniel West should Had been Adapted in the Show at some point? if so In what season or how would you have done it?

6 Upvotes

I rememeber this piece of art begin around for a while and the many theories about Danien West Appearing in the Show

in my persoanly opinion if i had the chance i would had Adapted Daniel West by having him be a Future Version of Jenna West who after a terrible tragedy, resecenented The Flash Family for not begin able to safe joe (or cecile) and would connected herself into the negative speedforce and try to go back in time to kill barry and protect her family (she would had replaced Red Death in season 9)

(ideal i would had Joes and cecils kid be male and they name him Daniel West, but hey wha ya going to do?9

Spoilers random thoguhts about the finale

6 Upvotes

so ive been kinda been getting into the flash once more and i got a question, do yall think it would had been better if in the finale it was Cisco and Fast Track who took down Thawne instead of allegra?, both of them have been hurt by thawne so it would had been cool to see them work together to take him down, also Fast Track is a Speedseter so it does make some level of sense

🤔 Thinking The Cecile and Joe subplot in S6E2 drove me crazy

4 Upvotes

First time watcher of the show. The Cecile and Joe subplot just irritated me beyond belief. Cecile, with the ability to read minds, is in a far better position to help people as a DA than as a defense attorney. The idea of prosecutorial discretion seems to be totally ignored here. She can use the power she has as the DA to ensure that innocent people are not prosecuted.

And Joe tells her that he job is to prosecute the people the police bring to her. That is NOT her job! Her job is to ensure the justice is served. Not to prosecute innocent people.

Maybe I'm irrationally angry, but this subplot, and the big "a-ha" moment that Cecile had at the end to become a defense attorney, really frustrated me. She voluntarily put herself in a position to help fewer people.

Question Why didn't Savitar disappear after Barry found out who he was? Spoiler

7 Upvotes

After Barry found out who Savitar was, the future didn't change, which means Barry would still create Savitar after Iris died. Why do you think he would do that?

Shitpost something i realixed and it could be cool

2 Upvotes

so because in the crisis it was comfrimed that the DCEU was apart of the Arrowverse Multiverse this made me realize something

Had things played out diferently Zoom Could Had very well ended up Invading the Universe of the DCEU and fight Erzas Flash, Imagine how all of that how it would had played out

(also i dont think we had talked about the implications about Erzas Flash in crisis, it implys that the DCEU Earth Was destroyed during the crisis too, but somehow Erzas Flash was safe and in the speed force, and what about when the speed force was dying? were all flashes in the multiverse start to lose speed?)

🤔 Thinking Season 3 mood

25 Upvotes

Season 3 is so depressing, the season starts with Barry walking into the cortex and Cisco being a buzzkill and we later find out that flash point caused his brother to die and him and Barry aren’t on very good terms, Later Barry and everyone else thinks that iris is destined to die, nobody wants to do HRs team building exercise and they don’t even like the star labs museum! Barry runs to the future and it’s basically black and white, he finds out Cisco has no powers, Joe and future Barry don’t fw each other anymore, Wally becomes paralyzed, Caitlin is locked up, he goes to future Barry and finds out he’s emo and completely shut down team flash and star labs, then he later finds out that he is savitar. Just completely depressing with little to no happiness. AND HR DIES
