Spoilers The Flash - Season 2

I absolutely hate Snart/Captain Cold and Trickster.. the first because the actor is just downright awful and the second..
Yeah. Wentworth Miller is just downright awful. You run with that. See how far it gets ya.

He's certainly very hammy - his mannerisms are like he's wandered in from a different (likely better, funnier) show.

I like the odd spin Miller is putting on his dialogue. It works for the character and is more entertaining. than a more "naturalistic" approach might be.

He's playing a larger-than-life Rogue named Captain Cold for Pete's sake. He should talk like any average guy on the street?
 
Agreed on everything, except that I didn't love it. It was distracting. They should have gone ahead and just made him the Joker. His Trickster seemed like Joker Lite. Feh.

Well, I remember seeing Hamill play the Trickster in the '90 series before he became the Joker a couple of years later, so as I see it, he's returning to the role that started him on his career in comic-book villainy (when he crossed to the Dark Side, as it were).
 
The Trickster feels like the Joker to me...but that's OK with me. It's good to see this side of Hamill's acting, vs. the Luke Skywalker type. I personally think Hamill got robbed.... he seems to have a fun comedic side... maybe he can be SNL host when the next Star Wars movie can come out?

As for Wentworth Miller...I actually like his style for Captain COld. Despite his "lack of power" I think his confidence (or how it's portrayed) helps him "weaken" Barry.

I think he has the right look & tone for a live action Captain Cold. I'm interested how becoming a Legend will change him.

Now, I think you Miller haters have a problem with him because he's a Snart-ass.
 
1. Theoretically, Leo can build a new cold gun whenever he wants. In the comics, he claims all he needs to build a new gun is half an our in a Radio Shack.

2. Snart has probably got ten of them secured safely all over the city, and a dozen more across the country.
 
that makes sense, I remember some discussion in a previous episode about them studying how their guns were put together, but I wasn't sure if they had gotten to the "build from scratch" point yet.
 
It was great seeing Mark Hamill back as Trickster, and WW is a good villain too. The big confrontation between Flash and WW was pretty cool. I was disappointed Barry didn't reveal he was Flash while Patty was threating WW. I was really hoping he was going to pull his mask off as a way to get her to listen to him.

I'm glad Barry didn't reveal himself to Patty right there. Weather Wizard and Trickster are not people you want knowing your secret identity.

Hoping Wells is smart enough to "work for" Zoom just to keep him close enough to learn how to beat him.
I forgot that the bad guys were right there. I guess that wouldn't have been the ideal place to reveal who he is.

Well, it's a chore to keep kidnapping Cisco every-time they need a barrel cleaned.
 
It's pretty easy to defeat Zoom now, all Harry has to do is ffed him too much of the speed force and he'll more than likely die. The release of the speed force though should repower Jay and possibly turn Wally into Kid Flash.
 
I thought last year that Wells said something about the speed force flowing through him and Barry, not that they have some gland that is a finite reservoir some ass#### can stick a straw into.

But Zoom has already admitted to Harry that, that's his plan that the reason why he let Barry live.

It would be interesting and unexpected if Zoom thinks Harry is a smug asshat, and since he thought he had it figured out Zoom is just letting him think he's right, and that isn't how it works or what Zoom is up to at all. :lol:
 
Assume that this is where Velocity6 will play in? Either getting that into Zoom directly, or 'poisoning the well' before Zoom tries to suck Barry dry again.

That's the 'gun' that's been introduced and implied to be dangerous to speedsters. And then left to sit there. So that's gotta be where the resolution comes from, no?
 
!!! SPOILERS !!!

I want a clearer image of that one image of Killer Frost!!! :D

ETA:
So are we to believe that Wells from Earth 2 knows Earth 2 Caitlin as Killer Frost and has a special relationship with her and why he seems so nice to Earth 1 Caitlin?
