THE FLASH: BARRY IS A VILLAIN

In the Flash Season, 4 Episode 7 Barry tried to take down the Thinker without any proof of any crimes, however, analyzing the actions of Barry and the Thinker it appears that Barry may be a jerk and the villain compared to the Thinker. So spoilers for the Flash 407, here are the reasons why Barry is a jerk.

To start off, for we know about the Thinker is that he has not done anything bad, but has done the complete opposite and has done relatively good things. Tracking down his actions he first created a plan to get Barry out of the speed force, which first of all, gave Central City its protector back, and allowed for Barry to come back into the real world and marry Iris, which is a plus one for team Flash. Creating all the bus Meta-Humans did have its ups and downs, however, it was the actions of the individual Meta-Humans which cause trouble. But look at the Elongated Man, Ralph Dibny, he said "it's the best thing that ever happened to me" referring to him getting powers from the bus. So looking at the Thinker's actions this season he seems like he is doing not only team Flash a favor, but Central City as a whole a favor.

But what does Barry do in return to the man who basically saved him, oh that's right he harrases him by interrogating him, invading his home, and steals from him. But if we go back to the reason why Barry is doing any of this is that Abra Kadabra and Savitar mentioned him as a villain. Did Barry ever stop to think that when Iris went on to live the timeline was changed. Because if you remember the original timeline had emo Barry when Iris died, and in that timeline, Savitar was born, and I assume Kadabra looked into the future of that timeline, and in that timeline, DeVoe was a villain. So now that Barry changed the timeline (which he knows has major repercussions),  by saving Iris, DeVoe could be a nice guy, which he has proven to be.

The reason why Barry opened up an investigation on DeVoe was that Ralph got a call from DeVoe on the Central City’s mayor’s antics, so Ralph and Barry stopped the corrupt mayor of Central City. Clifford also knows Barry is the Flash, but guess what, he hasn’t given it to any villains, he is keeping the Flash’s identity a secret. So Barry is calling the man who:

  • restored his life
  • brought back the Flash from a hiatus
  • keeps Barry's identity a secret
  • created a new hero, the Elongated Man
  • and caught the corrupt mayor

a villain. Who’s the real villain here?

Barry being a jerk can go on further, look at next week's episode, from viewing the trailers it appears that Barry forgot a few friends on the guest list, like good science pal, Ray Palmer, or what about John Diggle, the man who had a daughter which Barry basically erased. And speaking on the wedding, how got the groom out of the speed force to have a wedding, that's right the Thinker.

So from the Flash 407, it seemed like Barry Allen has done more evil than the Thinker. So please comment below your thoughts on Barry as a character and his actions from the past episode down below. As always thanks for reading, take care.

THE FLASH "CAUSE AND XS" REVIEW

Season 5 Episode 14: Hey everyone, we are back with a brand new episode of the Flash, directed by Rachael Talalay, and Killer Frost herself, Danielle Pannabaker. In this episode we see Nora get herself caught in a time loop, and with Barry out of the picture, she has no idea on what to do. So spoilers ahead for this episode, let's recap. The episode starts off with Cisco finding a meta-human cure, however, it needs a month to be synthesized, so Barry takes it into the speed force for an hour, as time moves differently in there. With Barry gone, the team goes to do separate things. Cisco goes on a date with Kamilla, Sherloque helps Caitlin with some things, and Iris goes to write a story at her office. At her office, Iris is captured by Cicada, who takes her on the rooftop. After getting an alert, Nora runs to the rooftop where Killer Frost breaches in, and Cicada kills Caitlin. Nora freaks out, and runs away, rewinding time to just after Barry left. Back in time, Nora writ...

THE BATMAN MOVIE COMING 2021

Image
With the "Worlds of DC" changing its line up of films after seeing its success and failures, Warner Brothers has announced that they are developing the Matt Reeves Batman film to come out in summer 2021. This news is something which has been speculated for a while now, and it seems like Ben Affleck is leaving behind the role of Batman and the film seems like it will be a prequel with a much younger Batman going on an adventure with a younger rogues gallery. It seems like the film will still take place in this same continuity that we have been seeing. It's not going to be like the Joker film coming out later this year which is separate from the Worlds of DC. Going in the future with this new younger Batman. I think we could see a trilogy with the younger character. In that trilogy, we could see the villains which we haven't seen before in these films or ones we haven't seen much of before. So we could see Deathstroke, the Riddler, Catwoman, the Pengui...
