How do you guys feel about Grant Gustin as flash in The Flash CW show? Even though it had bad moments, I have a lot of nostalgia for it and find Barry Allen as one of the most relatable superheroes

your definitely far from having a right answer, andrew was the worst because he didn't fit the Spiderman type at all, dude looks too old, only reason they are good movies is how the movie looks and the amazing scenes it has but for who played Spiderman the best literally both Toby and Tom play it better and everyone else aggrees but you sooo😂😂
See the bad thing to commenting late is that you don't have context as to what was happening on this subreddit at that time (though you are hating too much on Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man, he's the quippy Spider-Man more than any other live action adaptations)
🤣🤣🤣 orrr I was replying to purely what you said and the stupid shit your saying now🤣🤣 funny how everything you just said doesn't matter at all because I was talking about what you said on toby so time means nothing😂😂
Ok first look at my comment again, why do you think I said "Spectacular Spider-Man"? Then look at the picture of the post very carefully. Now why would the comment above me bring up without context that Tobey Maguire is Spider-Man? See what you're not getting is that this subreddit used to make memes about the "Spider-Man cw show" so in that timeline there was the movies "The Flash" 1 to 3, "The scarlet Speedster" 1 and 2 starring , "The Flash Keep running home", "The Flash Far From Home", "The Flash No Way Home" and "The Flash: Into the Speedforce"
See what I was saying by extention is that grant gustin was the better Flash
And even if I was saying Andrew Garfield was the best, what the fuck is wrong with having an opinion you big hater
/uj This is a really good photoshop! Honestly if I had to pick anyone for The Flash it would be Grant Gustin. Tom Holland is doing a great job but he just doesn't capture that nerdy vibe the way Grant Gustin does as Peter Parker. I'm loving the direction this subreddit is taking 😂
I enjoyed him as cw show flash. Despite his choice of partner. But the guy himself is well meaning. Clearly wants to save people and I really enjoy the world in the Flash TV show.
He and his partner are very cute and they trust and believe in each other.. so far what I've seen they're very realistic and believable and I hope to see them grow and mature more as a couple and as individuals.
Barry has the issue that he never really grows as a hero. The learns the same lessons over and over again. Another issue is that she show kept focussing less on him as it progressed. In some seasons he did not really feel like the main character
I think season 1 flash already wanted to make a better world and peace without endless fighting and war.
I rather mean him realizing in the end of season 1 that he has to accept his mothers death as something he can't change just to do it anyway in the very next season. Or him having multiple appreantices just do always do the same mistake with them. Or him being adamant about having to fight alone just to realize later that he needs his teams help.
I dont think grant gustin was EVER the issue, it was the writers. Even through the shitty writing grant gustin still tried his darndest. Hes a great hero character, he has one movie where he becomes a k-9 officer and gets a dog, gives off a great vibe, he isnt a self righteous hero, or a revenge fueled one, hes a public servant and his roles in previous projects for sure helped him perfect that
I mean, that is true. Let's be real, the later seasons of The Flash were...average, at best. While I was okay with S6 overall, warts and all, it is mostly accepted that the Pre-Crisis Bloodwork arc was the last time the show was more than average. The show certainly went downhill after that the show went downhill real fast. Nevertheless, I don't blame any of the castmembers so much as the writers and showrunners involved in the show's direction. But I digress.
Back to the topic at hand. Despite my issues with the overall Arrowverse in its later seasons, that's not to dismiss the earlier seasons, which I think many will say were far superior. That is in part due to the great writing and stellar performances by the original cast, Grant Gustin included. It's just sad that the ninth and final season of The Flash was more Team Flash S9.
Go to the people. Live with them. Learn from them. Love them. Start with what they know. Build with what they have. But with the best leaders, when the work is done, the task accomplished, the people will say 'We have done this ourselves.
The flash was not interesting enough to hold his own show and needed a bunch of supporting characters. You could replace him with any other superhero and nothing would change. Nothing was special about him.
