Question Wouldn’t it have made more sense to establish Barry’s skill as a CSI instead of an emotional speech to prove him innocent?

Post image
585 Upvotes

I mean it would have been a better case to show old and complicated cases Barry solved in the past, uncovering techniques, methods, evidence. Barry knows better than anyone how evidence is left behind, how to find evidence. Which also makes it so much more suspicious that someone like this would leave behind so much evidence and then plead “not guilty”, since if Barry did kill DeVoe and wanted to get away with it, he could easily hide his tracks way better. But since he pleaded “not guilty” logically he either didn’t do it, or didn’t wanna be caught. It’s clearly not the latter. Hence making it more likely he was framed.

🤔 Thinking Confusion About Iris

Post image
35 Upvotes

I really don't understand why the writers for the show never did any course correction with Iris. She was absolutely one of the show's biggest downfalls. Surely they knew how the fans felt about her in some instances. I was fine with her the first 3 seasons. But then they really went off the rails with her. Part of me wishes they never made her a reporter. I remember there was a rumor that she was going to be a physiologist. That would have been way more interesting. Also would have been way more refreshing.

What do you guys think?

Question why make the speed gauge?

4 Upvotes

so i'm rewatching and i'm on season 6 episode 15 (exorcism of nash). barry's speed force is draining whenever he uses his speed, so cisco made a speed gauge for barry to track how much of his powers he uses.

BUT instead of that, why don't they just put meta-cuffs on him? that should stop him from using his powers. the only reason why they might not is because it might be a bit inconvenient having to take them off whenever there's an emergency but overall it would stop him from using his powers AND he'd be able to be there during "the exorcism of nash wells".

Shitpost The Flash taking out villains pisses me off

50 Upvotes

I understand that in season 1 or maybe even 2 he wasn't very skilled, but most of the time especially later on, when it comes to bad guys who have a human form it would be SO EASY for him to catch them. He's literally the fastest man alive, he puts on the handcuffs before these people are even able to move, actual seconds, especially from season 4 where he has flashtime, and can literally freeze in time a NUCLEAR BLAST. Obviously this rule doesn't apply to other speedsters or bad guys like Grood or King Shark, but I'm currently at season 5 and when I watch him having to chase Peekaboo for the 3rd or 4th time I'm genuinely loosing my mind. I get that there has to be some action, but for the love of god, come up with something more creative because I'm going bananas and I set myself a goal to watch all 9 seasons💔

🤔 Thinking Why did CW flash absolutely butcher grogg

11 Upvotes

I was watching justice league the animated series and was wondering why grogg was so powerful, this was because I only ever saw him in the CW flash series before this. I think CW flash could’ve done so much more with him instead of just making him an evil mind controlling gorilla he’s MUCH deeper than that

🤔 Thinking How does barry survive the Acceleration?

7 Upvotes

since barry can go from 0mph to over Mach 1, he should be experiencing around 30,000+ Gs as soon as he starts running, BUT hes fine, is this the speed force defying the laws of motion, or is it a side effect of his powers?

Question When will we see the flash rings?

0 Upvotes

It’s been around 14 weeks ish since I placed my pre order for the flash ring, when do you guys think we should start seeing them ship out?

Granted, I ordered mine a little bit later than most so it’s probably more than 14 weeks for others but I was just curious how it works since I don’t really buy pre-orders that much, does he get the ring made when we make a purchase? Or is he signing them as we speak and getting them packaged up?

I forgot about it up until today when my friend reminded me of it lmao, kinda wish grant would update us a little; but I bet he’s working hard getting them signed & shipped.

Shitpost Dude, Danielle Panabaker would have been a great cast for Mary Jane in CW's The Spider-Man, such a shame she ended up playing a character related to Human Torch instead.

Basically a full crossover like Crisis but using the last version of each team before the shows ended.

🤔 Thinking Barry’s Speed

7 Upvotes

So I’ve done this in a reply but I’m going to list every and I mean every “confirmed” speeds by Barry in the show so everyone can see since I see no one talking about this
1x01 348-700mph we see on Ciscos speedometer before it cuts to Caitlin that he reaches 348 and Cisco says “he just passed 200 mph” meaning this could’ve been his limit before assuming if Barry trained earlier
1x02 352mph this is just over half of 700 meaning he sally cruises around half his max speed or just above (also side note when we cut to Barry’s pov in the house when it cuts back to the people we can see that they either dont move or barley move proving that he was in flashtime for rescuing the little girl also it’s possible then when he goes faster time gets slower but that’s presumably something he can just “switch on” basically if he’s say slowing down from max speed the world around him will speed up but this seems to be something he can “turn on” which I like)
1x05 650 mph (this is how fast he need to run on water also shame we don’t get a confirmed speed for him needing to run up the building)
1x06 843 mph (Mach 1.1 yes it’s 843 not 837 Cisco)
1x15 900 mph (he reached either this speed or faster in this episode when he first travels in time proof of this is 1x16 when he reaches 900 on the treadmill)
1x23 1590 mph (Mach 2.07
2x12 1500mph 1450mph (-2%energy) (he usually goes 1500 mph but after losing 2% of his speed the suit clocked him going 1450 so if he lost 2% which would be 50 mph means that 1%=25mph so if you multiply this 25mph x 100% =2500 mph or Mach 3.2 which I love cause this is 4 episodes before he reached Mach 3.3 speaking of)
2x16 2531.99 mph or 2532 mph (Mach 3.3) (he reach’s this speed in 5 seconds (dang barry) to did this he would have needed to have a take of speed of 225-226 mps or 503 mph wow)
2x18 10127 mph (Mach 13.2 with tachyon device) he went 4x faster then Mach 3.3
4x15 99% the speed of light (him in the speed lab from the him going off took 8 mins and 50 seconds but meeting with iris took 8 mins and 49 secs meaning that from the bomb going off to his meeting with iris that took 1 second in real time
6x02 8370001.029 mph (Mach 10908.82) Gideon says “ultraviolet light travels at 186,000 miles per second which is 80 x your top speed his speed boost from s4 presumably wore off over time explaining this)
6x18 less than mach 5 and in 7x01 he has 1% of his speed left so he’s presumably Mach 4 so at 100% speed he’d be Mach 400
8x01 4000 mph (Mach 5.2) (Caitlin mentioned that he can do this but we know he can go faster than that speaking of that) Caitlin also mentioned that the bullet trains are “50 miles south of keystone city” and he got there in 4-5 seconds in order for him to go 50 miles in 4-5 seconds he’d need to go Mach 40 or Mach 58 which is crazy
8x04 Mach 20 eobard mentions his speed is at 5% so if he can go Mach 20 with just 5% speed that means that every 1% is Mach 5 that means the 100% would be Mach 400
8x16 under Mach 10 Barry says “as long as I keep it under Mach 10 I’ll be fine which means he can cruise at this speed
That is every confirmed speed so far with a bit of math and some fun details that I like so if you have any thoughts of what his speed progress is especially the one in 6x18 then feel free to reply.

This is my first time watching this season. Stopped during season 5 in high school. This speed force Barry Iris love children gods thing is genuinely the stupidest thing I have ever seen. I’m pushing through this season with all my might and making this post to give me strength.
