I find it remarkable that despite there being a major movie Flash with a presumably much higher audience reach, the CW Flash is still most people's go-to for the character in live-action.
He was genuinely good in the role.
>>152102472it's because he isn't an asshole>>152103797honest to god they could only fix movie flash by making him tv flash's reverse flash who ruins everything on purpose
>>152102472A character in the movies is a character, a character on the CW is their friend
>>152102472Grant Gustin was a great Barry Allen who unfortunately got trapped in a show ruined by retards. Much like Arrow, S1, S2, and S3 were really great. Everything else just blew afterwards except for Gustin's performance as Barry.
>>152104480He was also at peak popularity when cast due to guest starring on Glee
>>152102472Grant was a solid flash and his show had at least one good season. Ezra literally never worked as the Flash, he was always at least vaguely offputing on camera because the way he moves and looks always looks like he's an alien that knows what facial expressions are but is unclear which ones go in what situations.And then you add in all of the shit that was going on with Ezra outside of the movies themselves and it just became super easy to root against him.
>>152102472There is nothing that the Synderverse ever could have done with the Flash that would have been as good as the CWverse Crises event. The number of returning faces and lovingly done callbacks that they managed to fit into that was lightning in a bottle they never could have done again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeZY48huBJQ
Whose idea was it to cast Ezra as Flash, anyway?
