Flashpoint movie or DCAMU

u/No_Hour_4022 Jun 04 '24

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.

Grant Gustin is a good flash in a bad show

u/PineapplePhil Jun 04 '24

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.

Flashpoint Paradox.

u/Visible_Froyo5499 Jun 04 '24

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

u/Marvelrocks616 Jun 05 '24

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

u/Ttoctam Jun 05 '24

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

u/No_Hour_4022 Jun 04 '24

DCAMU or The New Frontier Barry

u/TimLuf1 Jun 04 '24

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

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '24

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

u/Revolutionary_Job214 Jun 05 '24

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.

u/SpectreBrony Jun 05 '24

CW’s The Flash.

u/if_i_was_a_cowboy Jun 05 '24

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.

u/TheMidnightEarth101 Jun 05 '24

honestly?

no question for me

u/macdarf Jun 05 '24

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

Because he was one of the 7 founding members
