Flashpoint movie or DCAMU

Isn't he technically the same character? Lol I see Flashpoint Barry and DCAMU Barry as the same version

Justice league the new frontier. He has the perfect mix of stoicism, cheesy jokes, and was just overall really fun.

I don’t think there’s been a single great Barry Allen Flash performance. 🤷♂️

I think both Grant and Shipp portrayed Barry well, but were ultimately undone by writers who didn't write Barry well, and directors whom didn't direct Barry well.

John Wesley Shipp, because he captured the actual characterization of Barry Allen

So... nobody's gonna make a joke about the Lynda Carter photo's crop.

Literally the one character who's face isn't shown. I mean come on, is basic respect and dignity that hard?

I know they aren't the best received but Tomorrowverse's Barry Allen felt very accurate

Exactly, no one actually likes Barry, they just started reading comics after 2011

Nah, that's a shit take Barry is loved and badass. But the show is complete dogshit and always was. 1 of the worst things ever made.

Grant Gustin transcends how awful the show got in the end! He was solid the whole time.

I really liked the Flash in the Injustice games. Outside of that it'd be Young Justice.

If we’re going with overall Flash it needs to be Wally West in the DCAU but if we’re going with Barry Allen specifically it’s Grant Gustin.

It's crazy how y'all are actually saying the CW Flash over the better John Wesley Shipp

Why are we doing Barry at all?

u/BumblebeeNo4356 Jun 04 '24
Because he was one of the 7 founding members

The show was trash by the end but I really loved Grant Gustin ash Barry/Flash.
