US: The Flash (2014)

Barry hasn't got the build.
Henry's a slight possibility, but I think Joe's the likeliest of three + nobody would moan about a black guy voicing a black guy :p

Btw, does anyone remember Tony Todd playing Kern, Worf's brother? Best Klingon voice ever! #nerd

Bent out of shape is a bit of an exaggeration I don't see anybody getting too worked up by it at least not on here anyway, me personally as I said.. it's just a little strange to hear a voice that menacing and the mask comes off and it's somebody like Barry. Barry and Eobard have the ability to alter their voice by vibrating their vocal chords but it seems like Zoom isn't doing that.

I know I'm in a select few but I would actually have no problem if Zoom wasn't someone's earth-2 counterpart, if he was just another guy I'd think it was fine but they would need to extend his agenda a bit outside of wanting to be the only speedster in the multiverse.

Ok, maybe bent out of shape was too strong a phrase, I meant in general terms making a bigger deal out of it than I really think is necessary imo, no offence intended :)

I think it's great as they are going to great lengths to show people how different he is to the reverse flash. Quite liked the Bane-esque way that Zoom paraded Barry around after the beat down.

'I have broken him, your city is mine' type deal

Obviously Barry does the voice modulation thing to stop people making out that it's him.

Maybe Zoom is doing the same thing. As Zoom is better at controlling his power, he is better at masking his voice.

It could still be earth-2 barry. I doubt it, as it would be way too obvious, it could be Eddie given that that we don't know that eobard is dead in earth-2.

If it does turn out to be barry, it could be that he was affected in more ways aesthetically when the lightening struck him.

Many ways around it, and I'm looking forward to this season.
 
Bailed on this. Really enjoyed the first series. Alternate earth, zoom, I just don't care. Been there with another speedster, don't need it all over again. Turned it off midway through EP3 I think. Binned arrow off too this series.
 
Yeah, but this speedster's a real meanie and it might be worth you catching up just to see what happens when he does meet up with Barry.

I'm hoping Barry ends up tag teaming with Grodd. That'd be hilarious.
 
I'm probably going to be way off on this but I have had a feeling that Jay Garrick is Zoom. His whole "Zoom is too powerful for you to fight" thing was getting a bit overdone and that made me think about this. I know he's another flash in the comics, but as this is an earth 2 variant, I'm assuming it could be different. Plus we only have his word he ever fought Zoom and lost his speed.

That would just be the Wells arc all over again, can't see it tbh.

I hope it's not either. I'm probably reading too much into the Garrick charater being really poor and trying to make excuses for it.

Wish Barry would stop being such a big girl and get on with being awesome, guess that would be the end of the show though...

It's like he needs an emotional boost every episode, that side of this program is getting boring! :(
 
Yeah was cringing a bit with the constant "you are my son go be a hero" type talks from Henry but apart from that it was a good episode.
 
Based on that ending I would've thought Grodd was a cert to be the big bad for season 3 but I don't think they would have the budget to include him that often throughout a season. Still, Gorilla City should open up many more possibilities for him which is great to see.
 
Hmm, while obviously it's not like I expected them to leave Barry crippled but they could have done a bit better than "guys I can't feel my legs" as a cliffhanger literally straight to him walking (albeit only a few steps) and "with a week in therapy you're well on the mend", it was like one of those old Doctor Who cliffhangers where the Doctor was hanging over the ledge and about to die at the end of an episode only to pull himself up at the start of the next.

If only we had a spin off coming off in a half dozen episodes and some characters who could have used some spotlight as a lead up we could have used while Barry was healing.

Yeah agree. The show should do better, like last seasons cliffhanger. Show came back glossed it over, no big deal and continued like nothing happen. Hope the dialogue doesn't reach Arrow level cheesiness.

Barry will defeat Zoom with help he will return Jays Power, but dr Wells will leach Zooms and will also lose his daughter and will blame baz for it.

He will then become.

Dr Zoom
