My bad confusing speed of light with speed of lightning. 4000 mp second is still way faster than he has any right to be this soon though.

You just described 80% of DC Comics.

he still would have had to travel faster than light, ducy?

answer:

Spoiler:
he would have had to have seen the lightning coming, and therefore reacted, and moved, faster than light, to avoid it

A lot of that episode was just awful. The ending was awesome and saved it for the most part except we have to deal with the Iris Barry love triangle not knowing garbage for who knows how much longer.

Just because light travels at 186,000 miles per second he does not need to travel at that speed in order to avoid something that travels at 3,700 miles per hour(the lightning bolt itself). I do not need to avoid getting hit by a car at the speed of light just because it´s friggin headlights caught me like a deer. How much ahead of the lightning bolt light is is due to the properties of the source of light but it is always ahead of it on it´s max distance.


Anyway, I thought the whole discussion of going faster than speed of light was a reaction to him timetraveling, which surely would take incredible speed to pull off?

Lightning is 3700 miles per second, not per hour. Barry can now do a lap around the world in 8 seconds.

I always wondered how it would feel for him to run that fast. The show is at normal human speed right? So when he runs like 1000 miles in a second to us it's a second, but to him it has to feel like forever cuz hes still making choices about turns and things to avoid. But that would also mean that normal time would go x-times slower for him which would make his life terrible. Does anyone follow what Im trying to say?

Like most comic book stuff it starts to quickly fall apart if you pause to think about it. It helps to think about the super speed as a state that he enters and leaves regardless of if it's supposed to be.

There was an episode where he punched a guy in full speed force, so basically every episode should be them getting the call, he runs in, sucker punches the dude, they then spend the next 39 minutes sipping cocktails at a beach in Asia that he ran them all to.

Now he can go back in time to before they even get the call and precog sucker punch people for future crimes.

Or how about the newspapers from the future in Well's hideout?

yea I know I said that but it was always kind of a hopeful theory. ldo it hasn't been true since we first saw wells with a yellow suit but I'm still quite certain that there is more to this whole wells=rf and simply wants to kill barry story

I wonder how many people thought of time when Wells called Eddie a "distant relative." I think he meant it in another way.

IIRC Eobard Thawne is somehow related to Barry Allen in the comics as well, or it may just be that their families intermarried somewhere down the line, or it may have been retconned.

I forgot, but I actually looked it up and yeah, Eobard Thawne and Barry Allen are related, at least pre- New 52. Barry Allen was a twin at birth, but there was a mix up at the hospital and the twin was given to another couple, and was Eobard Thawne's ancestor.

Further to that, Barry Allen, prior to dying in the Crisis on Infinite Earths, lived in the 30th century with his wife Iris, who gave birth to twins. His son married Meloni Thawne, who later gave birth to Bart Allen, aka Impulse, Kid Flash II, and recently was The Flash.

Not that this has any relevance to the show.

Fairly sure when he said "distant relative", he was making a joke that he was from hundreds of years on the future. He also made a similar joke about the Buster Keaton movie being before his time.

Yeah, both episodes involving him were hard to watch.

Wtf, you have to make the two cross their streams? No you don't, just run up to them and disarm them; they can't react fast enough to aim and pull the trigger. Yet in the show, they somehow do.

Lucky for the Captain Cold haters, the new spinoff is putting all your favorites (Captain Cold, Laurel, Ray Palmer, and others) all in one show. This could be their first bad show idea.

I do quite like Palmer and wouldn't mind watching ATOM. Not sure if it can really survive as its own show though. I do agree that Snart may be one of the worst characters on TV I have ever witnessed. That dialogue, reaaally slow speech pattern, extremely annoying "sidekicks".

Not like anyone is surprised, but Iris love triangle is even more annoying to watch now.
