I was hoping for at least a one liner about a cute blonde or SOMETHING about the Supergirl episode... But it's like they were told to show the skip, but don't talk about it...

Oh well.

Barry did that too when he got superfast and was trying his speed in last night's episode. When he came back to the lab, he looked a little bit confused, why? Because he opened a little portal that took him right into the lab. He thought he ended up in an alternate world.

You can check it out if you want.

I don't recall that scene at all. Unless you mean when he popped through a portal (for the Supergirl episode) and then popped back out down the street... But I'll watch it again in a few days anyways.

Also, Barry's faster than Zoom, right? So as soon as Zoom releases Wally, Barry just... keeps his promise to surrender?
Yeah... I mean, I liked the general idea; I love it when heroes show sacrifice. But they had zero failsafe if Zoom decided to just massacre everyone once he had Flash's speed. Like, they pointed guns, but I mean, c'mon. Against this guy?

I'm really hoping this is all part of an elaborate plan that is revealed next episode, but I somehow doubt it. And even if that is the case, my complaints about no failsafe still stand.

Same here. I kinda wanted to see Cisco geek out over how in love he'd be with someone like that.

Or even better, Barry uses something he learned from Kara to push him through a tough spot. Show that she inspired him in some way.

Okay, with this, it's like 99% confirmed the prisoner in the metal mask is the real legit Jay Garrick.

Which is what my wife and I have both assumed since Escape From Earth-2.

As pissed as I am about the poor writing of "Versus Zoom", I can't wait to see this final reveal.

Even though this isn't necessarily related to the show, these are the supposed casting descriptions for the Flash movie.

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/the_fl...st-for-a140841

Spoiler:
IRIS WEST: Iris West is described in the breakdown as having Christiane Amanpour’s brains and Carrie Bradshaw’s style. An overcaffinated doe. A reporter at The Central City Citizen. Actresses are currently testing for this part.

EOBARD THAWNE: Eobard Thawne is described in the breakdown as Central City’s Bill Gates. The smartest man in the room and he suffers from advanced degenerative disease like Stephen Hawking. Thawne is confined to a chair.

FRED CHYRE: Fred Chyre is described in the breakdown as a gruff detective who first meets Barry at the scene of a crime. Now they’re colleagues and the closest thing Barry has to a friend. Chryre is investigating the unusual death of someone at Thawne Laboratories

LEN SNART: Len Snart is described in the breakdown as being ex-military and turns out to be working for Thawne. Have a feeling he is the muscle the way Anatoli Knyazev (aka the KGBEAST) was the muscle for Lex Luthor in Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice.

JAY GARRICK: Jay Garrick is described in the breakdown as being a former Central University professor who was fired for fringe science, and was working on the speed force program. Supposedly his role is just a cameo.


So if this turns out true, Thawne's gonna be a poor man's rip-off of this series take on him, Jay might not even start off as the first Flash, and Snart's gonna be a generic henchmen instead of the genius leader of the Rogue he's known to be.

Yeah, I read this on comicbookmovie... SIGH.

They should NOT be doing this. I mean, I get why they don't want to use Grant Gustin... but this is just idiotic. Eobard Thawne? Check. Wheelchair? Check. Creativity and unique take on The Flash? ... ... ... Didn't think so.

THE FLASH - "The Runaway Dinosaur"
KEVIN SMITH DIRECTS – With Barry (Grant Gustin) gone, the team must figure out a way to handle the return of an old enemy – Girder (guest star Greg Finley). Realizing Girder is retracing his steps from his last attack, Iris (Candice Patton) volunteers to act as bait to trap him in S.T.A.R. Labs. Meanwhile, Barry fights to return to his old life. Kevin Smith directed the episode written by Zack Stentz.

Found this here:

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/dc_tv/...sh-and-a140861

Not sure how Earth-1 Girder is brought back to life. Also, WTF is "The Runaway Dinosaur?"

I've been expecting this episode to be poor given who's directing, but this... this is seeming to confirm those expectations.

I think this episode will be fine. Kevin Smith is a huge DC Fan/comic book fan and loves this show I think we are in good hands. At least it wasn't guggie directing this.

I know he's a huge fan but what has he written or directed? Tusk? Clerks? Mallrats? Jay and Silent Bob?

Sorry, but none of that filmography fills me with any confidence.

Still... least it's not Gugg.

Tonight's episode was slow but good. (Get it?)

Wells is always a highlight, Wally showed a little growth (very Roy from Arrow... they really are following the same general beats of Arrow)...

I think the best stuff was Caitlin with Killer Frost. Zoom icing KF was awesome. (Again, get it?)

Caveat: There is no way Zoom has already beaten Earth-2. They don't even show us anything... intimidating one major metropolis does not a global conqueror make.

The highlight of this episode was definitely Zoom phasing through Caitlin and stabbing Killer Frost. Hope we see Barry pull that trick off later down the road.

They've declared it won't happen until the finale.

And it's totally the real Jay Garrick.

Yeah, sorry. I find it annoying, too. I'll find it even MORE annoying if it's somebody other than the real Jay Garrick.

Watch it be Kaitlyn's never before heard of till now brother Charlie that Killer Frost mentioned. Why else mention Charlie unless it becomes an eventual plot point?
