It's not spam, it's topical.

He started it... I think.

That is legit one of my actual favourite moments from Season 1 (Bar most scenes with Reverse Flash). Supersonic punch baby!

On the topic of RF In Media... I hate that they always dumb-down his motives. In that he's always trying to kill Barry. Rather than doing the whole "I can't kill you, because then I won't exist. So I'll just make your life hell."

@Lord Wraith Unfair. You have a reasonably good cinematic version of your character.

I get Mr.ElectrocutesAbsolutelyEverythingHeRunsNear

Still, could be worse...

I could be @AndyC


Yes, what hell it is having two different incarnations of a character that I enjoy very much, and a third that was pretty boring but was only in one movie so is easy enough to overlook.

@AndyC In all honesty, I don't jump aboard the hate train for a lot of comic book movies. I can enjoy them, but I don't hate them.

The only one that annoyed me the most was Flash in Justice League, but a minor retcon of calling him Wally West and it would have been a lot better in my opinion. Barry was always the more serious of the two, and I think they just mashed Barry and Wally together for sake of needing some comedic relief in the movie.

I mean there are some comic book films I've not seen, which are the ones that garner the most hate. Out of the ones I've seen, not a single one hated.

I used to get a lot more worked-up about movies, but I ultimately got worn out on it. A good roast is fun every once in a while, but keeping up a constant attitude of righteous indignation or repetition of easy memes gets tiring, not to mention boring-- especially when you're on the receiving end of it. I started to really hate going to fan groups or forums where I knew every other thread would end up becoming a big dog-pile on whatever thing was the punching bag of the week, to the point where I left the Hype forums and its Facebook group entirely. It just stops being fun.

I still get a bug in my craw when it comes to the comics themselves, but that has more to do with the fact that the comic book industry is dying and desperately needs a return to first principles instead of gimmicky events or overt political agendas that aren't connecting with the public.

Having hatred in your heart for a bad comic book movie just makes you feel more like a man. I didn't feel whole until I walked out of Blade: Trinity.

I feel like comic book movies get a lot of shit. A bad movie is a bad movie, no matter if it's comic book or not. As far as I'm concerned.

Hell, you're speaking to a Star Wars fan that can sit through the Sequels without throwing a tantrum, ironically I feel like a lot of butthurt fans are being represented by the actions of Kylo Ren.

I just feel like movie culture has gotten to a point where it's pretty toxic, you really do get torn down for liking an unpopular movie, or even brand. The same way you get torn apart for the opposite, before the sequels came out "Oh I don't really like Star Wars." "YOU FUCKING WHAT?!"

People in my head just get too obsessed over it, and forget that the most important part of seeing movies is having fun and just relaxing for a couple of hours.

That said there are some bad films out there, but I feel like that's nothing to do with franchises and more Hollywood just trying to be a money factory.

The less we talk about Star Wars the better it is for everyone here.

Oh, god yes. I do not want to get into SW arguments in the current landscape. It's bad enough that if this game reaches another season, I want to try a Star Wars game of my own.

The last movie and surrounding culture around it has just demotivated me so much from the fandom to the point I'm kinda dead inside, lol.

I don't know what you guys are talking about. There haven't been any new Star Wars movies since 1983.
