Wouldn't it be more fun that in order to get back he had to get help from Smallville universe Green Arrow, just think of the fun conversation with Arrow universe Ollie about his other self
.So long as we're doing wishes... Tiffany Smith is a correspondent and presenter for DC All Access and a number of other genre podcasts / shows. A pretty nerdy woman who loves comics. She looks like this:
She kinda resembles Candice Patton and I wouldn't mind a terrible B-plot where she guest stars, hooks up with Barry, and triggers jealousy in Iris with their similarities. Oye... I'm writing fan fiction.
I... I've been up too long.

Speaking of fan fic, where is Wozzly? It ain't a cw/DC thread without the threat of his fic.

Not really. Batman is just way to big. He can overshadow everything, even GL's failure.
Also..Red was better team up movie than Avengers

And since he doesn't control the speedforce I think that would bassicaly leave his hands as a pulp of tiny bone pieces and ragged flesh.

We might just be witnesssing the birth of this thread version of Wozzly.

I don't see why it would. But Seeing as how he has limited regeneration thanks to the Speedforce, that wouldn't be much of a problem.
I think it's pretty simple. Has it been revealed in the actual show yet? No? Then it's a spoiler.
The twist of Caitlin's husband being alive and eventually becoming a superpowered superhero are absolutely spoilers. No idea why they wouldn't be.
And we generally put the spoilery bits from casting articles behind spoiler tags like this.
WHAT THE FUCK THANOS?
Please, Green Lantern isn't even the worst comic-book film released this decade. That is, hands down, Thor 2. Which has a terrible villain, borderline sexist female characters, and the most absurd 'does stuff for reasons' macguffin I've ever seen.

I think it's kind of unfair to compare movies that have a higher budget for two, two and a half hours than a TV show has over the course of 17 or so hours and able to film for months as opposed to TV where they film an episode in around a week.
Tom Welling as Clark Kent? Tom Welling has zero interest in wearing the suit and well being Superman at all. Besides that, Welling has lost a fair bit of weight, even during Smallville's last couple seasons he wasn't as big or in shape as he use to be.
The CW releases press releases with detailed plot summaries of episodes that don't air for weeks. Those are spoilers too.
And yeah, they do add things to the thread. People don't feel the need to leave and not read it because other people can't put in the slightest effort required to not ruin shit for them about a TV show they like.

Better written? As in dialogue? Sure. Plot-wise? Nope.
And no ammount of nice direction, acting and specia effects can make up for how short thoe movies are. I love Nolan's Batman, but it's not a real Batman. it'; just a guy in a suit, who beat two big villains in a year and then did a little encore appereance before dissapearing completely.
Also...as funny as it is, Arrow has a lot better action than Batman trilogy.
I think we'll just have to disagree there. I thought The Dark Knight had a great story.

There's no discussion about what is and what's not spoilers. The things that aired aren't. Everything else is.
Wiktor

Yeah, I gues we'll have to
Wait, The Dark Knight is 2 1/2 hours long, and The Dark Knight Rises is close to 3. Batman Begins, ~2 hours 20 min.
Those are some long movies. And he certainly does some Batmaning in all three.
Wiktor

Oh..those are long movies. But they're still movies and that medium suck for telling superhero stories. Nolan managed to limit the damage of it nicely ,but it still was visible. Dark Knight avoided it the most becaue Joker was completely random and crazy.
Meanwhile, DKR was hurt badly by being merely 3 hours long. The most interesting thing about the whole story - Gotham under siege, had to be completely ignored because there was no more time left.

Killer Frost has traditionally been an unrepentant villain but her more recent comic outings have been mellowing that out way more and making her more sympathetic, re: she needs to steal the warmth from people to not feel the endless cold so sometimes that need to become normal again overwhelms her.

Aye. Basically she'd be fine if she and Firestorm were together 24/7, but the two never quite click in that way.

To clarify and reaffirm what others have pointed out: material that hasn't aired yet in an episode should be behind spoiler tags. This includes previews/promos, promo photos, casting news, and loglines (episode summaries). This is how things usually work on TV-GAF. If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a PM and we can discuss. Thanks.

Which is kinda funny. You're in a topic about a fantastic show made by the Green Lantern guys.
No one else is getting Smallville / early Agents of SHIELD vibes from this? I'm not feeling it so far.
I do like Barry tho. And the powers look good enough. I just want some Arrow S1 overarching storyline. Feels like monster of the week to me. Plus that team at Star Labs just doesn't have that chemistry just yet.

The dude suits up and becomes the Flash in 2 episodes... that's the complete opposite of Smallville lol.
I guess I get what you mean with the whole monster of the week thing (I'm not a fan of that format either), but hopefully the overarching story of "Who killed Barry's mother and how/why?" Becomes more pronounced soon.

Wasn't their original script supposed to be great before other people started meddling with it? AFAIR it was pretty much all in space after he turned GL
Like Arrow but more lighthearted, and with no reluctance to go full-on comic book.

Great so far.
It's Arrow but way more superpowers and less dark.
It's been getting fantastic reception, ratings and reviews.
Yep pretty much.
It sucks that we ended up with what we got.
Guggenheim has said that yes, but Berlanti was a producer on the movie, so he should have had more control.
To be fair, Arrow's lessons learned helped this show a lot.
Definitely

Everything I've read about the movie points to massive studio interference all the way through. Try to shoehorn a jumpstart for a shared DCU, trying to work costs down, the casting, everything.
In hindsight, it's hard to blame any of the creative people for the result.
For those interested in the comics, DC announced their January variant theme will be The Flash appearing in parodies of classic comic covers to celebrate the character's 75th anniversary.
My personal favorite:
Considering that's Lois's schtick, and Iris is nothing but the poor man's Lois Lane...yes.

I actually am coming to like the idea of the show and movie being separate despite how much I love Grant Gustin as the role. It gives them more than plenty of time to take criticism from the TV show and implement it into the movie. As the show goes on the script would only be able to improve.
