The Flash (TV Series)

[First Blood]

We need Captain Cold.

[KiramidHead]

We need Captain Cold.

Gorilla Grodd.

[Alienseseses]

Jay Garrick?

[ShadowPred]

Jay Garrick?

It would f**k with the continuity of the shows. I'd rather have Jay Garrick appear in comic book form and have THAT be why Barry calls himself the Flash. Since he's such a super geek about comics it would make sense of him to do this.

[Magegg]

The Flash shouldn't be a TV series. It should be a movie written and directed by Edgar Wright. Period.

[Alienseseses]

They can work him in there. Maybe as a non-powered mentor or something along those lines.

[KiramidHead]

That would be like working Alan Scott into a Green Lantern film.

Spoiler

But given how Hollywood works, he'd probably be the sassy gay comic relief character.

[Alienseseses]

Alan Scott was in the original draft of Green Lantern.

Alan Scott was in the original draft of Green Lantern.

And we all know how good that script turned to be.

[Alienseseses]

The original draft was soooooo much better than what ended up on screen. Which is to say, it wasn't a brown stain.

[KiramidHead]

I read a little bit of the draft. it was basically the same, just with a different monster.

Was Hal's nephew subplot resolved in any of the drafts? o__o

Well, he IS gay in the comics thanks to the New 52 reboot.

He had well over one scene, yes.

That's the thing... The overall plot is very similar. But the execution, the character moments, the motivations, the resolutions, all very different.
