Discussion Why does everyone want Grant to return?

Post image
3.3k Upvotes

Listen, I grew up with the cw Flash and I love grant's Barry as much as anyone else. But why does everyone want him to be the Flash in the DCEU? Don't get me wrong, he's brought a lot by portraying the character for 10 years, but is it really necessary? Maybe he could pull a Nathan fillion (who played Hal in a lot of projects and then played Guy in the DCU. So maybe he could play another Flash like Jay or maybe just return as Barry but as a mentor to Wally?). But this debate has been up since the start of the DCEU, even before Ezra went crazy, people wanted Grant as the Flash in the DCEU. Yes, he's great but having a new actor would only help people to not confuse things. I don't think it would be bad for him to return as Barry, but I also wouldn't want it to happen that much. The people i see on TikTok just want him to return without anyone else playing the character, and I'm like, why? To the point where they say no one else should play the flash, like what? They even said that he should play Wally if Wally is the flash and that's just dumb (cause Wally should start in his teens/20s in the new universe). Anyways, somehow Grant is getting "glazed" a little too much (and I mean, yes, he was a good flash, but this doesn't mean there shouldn't be another actor) People say that he's their only flash and the best and I mean, they're not wrong because we didn't really get any other flash... The other choices are either Ezra ChokePeople Miller and JWS . What do you think?

I can get behind men flying, rings that let you do basically anything, I can even believe that flash can get his suit in the ring (he uses chemicals). I just can't for the life of me Believe he's stuffing those metal ear pieces into the ring.

(This is half a joke and half actual confusion)

Discussion Why is Wally faster than Barry?

Post image
1.8k Upvotes

Ok so, I'm a big flash fan, I watched the CW show when it came out and I immediately fell in love. Barry became my favorite fucking superhero ever, that being said, I learned over the course of a couple years that Wally was faster, why is he?

So my knowledge on flash lore isn't necessarily sparse (since I greedily tried to absorb as much flash knowledge as I could when the show was out), but it's not like I know every little detail.

I know that there was a version of Barry's accident where HE was the lightning bolt that struck himself, thereby causing the birth of the speed force (unless that is the mainline reason), I know that thawne is the reason flash exists and vice versa, I know about the whole 2 wally's thing, I know about zolomon being a Wally villain. I just know a good chunk of flash lore, but what I don't know is why Wally is faster.

I'm pretty sure Barry is the speed force right? Like he's the "engine" behind it, every step he takes makes the speed force stronger or something like that? If that's the case, why isn't he faster. I've seen people say it's because Wally was trapped in it for so long, but how does that make sense?

Discussion Such nonsense

Post image
1.6k Upvotes

This is such BS. No, dude, the reason why the movie did so badly is because Ezra Miller is a scumbag, yet you still decided to go forward with production. On top of that, you barely promoted the movie, and the movie itself sucked. You relied on cameos—brought back the Batman people wanted to see—and even that didn’t help. It’s not the Flash’s fault; it’s your fault.

Get people who actually understand and love the character. I’m so sick of hearing, ‘We need this big-name writer, that big-name writer.’ No. Just get someone who’s passionate about the Flash and knows what makes the character special. If there’s a fan who’s also a great writer, hire them, because that’s what the Flash needs—people who actually care.

And then you turn around and blame women for the movie’s failure, saying he doesn’t resonate with women? That’s complete and utter BS. Yes, the Flash has a stronger appeal to male fans, but that’s not the reason the movie flopped. It flopped because you don’t have a clue what the fans want. That’s the problem with so many Hollywood movies—always chasing big-name writers who don’t understand the characters. And when it all fails, you blame the fans. Get out of here with that nonsense

Either as the main flash or mentor/flashbacks for Wally I just used them because I saw it on twitter 👀 : Ryan Gosling , Andrew Garfield, George Mackay , Lucas Till or Grant Gustin. What are your other fan cast ?

DCAU or Young Justice. The two are different but they share the charming character.
