  Alternative title "upset fanboy gets mad over movies for 31 minutes."

  i just don’t understand why, in the first flash movie when we know nothing about the character, they would do FLASHPOINT

  The time travel in the flash movie is confusing because they setup this spaghetti rule to put Michael Keaton into the movie, then proceed to break the rule in the climax.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFPkxPDWg3s&amp;t=558">9:18</a> I will: They literally teased Arrow&apos;s dad becoming the alternate Arrow in season 2 of the Flash with a news report on earth 2. Flashpoint is the story that gave us Batman&apos;s dad becoming alternate Batman. CW Arrow is literally Green Arrow LARPing as Batman (still love the first few seasons though).The foundation was laid but nothing was built atop it.

  To be fair to the CW, they had just done the Flash regaining his powers the previous season when Zoom stole them. There was also the one-off episode in season one when the meta drained Barry&apos;s powers and he lost them for an episode

  cw Barry&quot; Im the fastest man alive&quot;. 5 minutes later &quot;He&apos;s faster than me.&quot; said cw Barry. I have personal beef with that show. So many times, the solution was just run faster, after running slower than you did last week for no reason during the entire episode. Live action always makes Barry, incredibly stupid.

  That moment when Batman and Superman have more screen time than the title character

  You aren’t wrong about the CW rendition having inconsistent logic for when someone disappears from the timeline.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFPkxPDWg3s&amp;t=50">0:50</a> It’s not stupid. It what these heroes were created for. I think it’s amazing the flash has impacted you in such a way. Stay healthy and keep being the flash bro.
