>Before Green Lantern and Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds almost played the Flash in a movie written by “Batman Begins” scribe David S. Goyer – who would also have directed – in 2005. The plot would have featured Barry Allen sacrificing himself and passing his powers on to his nephew Wally West, who must become the new Flash to defend the city from Zoom and Reverse Flash. Reynolds would have played Wally, with Kurt Russell eyed for Barry, Bradley Cooper for Zoom and Robert Patrick for Captain Cold. Grace Park would have played Wally’s love interest Linda Park.
>passing the torch in the first movie>not one, but TWO mirror matchesit would've sucked
Deadpool and Wolverine should totally feature a joke about this lol
>>144662189>not one, but TWO mirror matchesu wot, m8
>>144662172it would have been terrible, like most superhero films of that era. The costume would have either been cheap-looking or tacticool, the characterisation would be butchered, no one would call him The Flash until the end of the movie and the special effects would have aged like butter.

>>144662698I don't think you want me to start listing off all the films that sucked from that era, now do you?>HulkI'm sick of this revisionist bullshit, that movie was awful and you fucking know it.
>>144662698You're mixing up a few eras there. The mid-2000s were a low period after the highs of the early 2000s when there was a glut of just god-awful capeshit movies as studios rushed to copy the mega-success of Spider-Man. At the time it almost seemed like the capeshit fad was over as had happened several times before before the MCU kept it going for another decade +.
