    Flash tv pilot

    Just watched the Flash pilot and it was GOOD! Definitely going on my must watch list. Plenty of Flash comic connections too.

      Looks like we're the only ones so far that have seen it, glad to know someone else saw it and liked it as much as me.

          Don't know about comicmike ( maybe the links in his thread over in General Buzz ) but I downloaded it from a torrent - http://kickass.to/the-flash-2014-s01...-t9257696.html.

                Big trouble on the horizon if this show pilot is indicative of how DC's characters are going to be handled in live-action media. My hold out hope at the moment is that this show (as well as any connected ones) are as separate from the new "cinema" universe being created as Smallville was from the Nolanverse.

                  You were concerned when everyone who has seen it and posted in this thread said they liked it?

                    Definitely.

                    Glad some posters here enjoyed it, but there are MUCH bigger things at stake for the whole DC property here.

                    I won't risk spoilers in this thread at this point, but I *will* say this:

                    It appears one of the greatest "potential for live-action success" factors that DC has a relatively clean slate on (and of which Marvel has succeeded in spades), "the image of a cohesive live-action universe" is being tampered with in a sloppy manner w/the Flash pilot.

                    So, yes, I am indeed concerned. And (as stated above), my hold out hope at the moment is that this show (as well as any connected ones) are as separate from the new "cinema" universe being created as Smallville was from the Nolanverse. But the advantage Smallville had was that there was no DC cinematic universe going on at the time... all there was the Bat-Nolan movies.

                    So, yeah, after watching The Flash pilot, I'm m sensing something notably rotten is amiss with the decision-makers at DC, WB or whoever is in charge of this.

                      It was inevitable.

                        You can't have it both ways T-bolt---when/if you see what they did with the origin of the character it'll make an OsCorp connection for supervillain tech look like grand cinema.

                        On a more general note: continue following me thread to thread and spread fallacies---I'll continue to indicate how you misconstrue and otherwise misrepresent my posts.

                        Good?

                            Ohh, I thought the Oscorp convenience factor was grand cinema to you.

                              Geoff Johns is a producer on the Flash TV show so I'm pretty sure it's using his convoluted revamped origin for the character that features Reverse Flash and adds unnecessary tragedy to the tale.

                              I can roll with that if the stories they tell are interesting. Green Arrow is far better than I would have imagined. If Flash hits that level, I'll be pleased enough to watch it when I can.
