Diary of a Movie Lover

Image via Denofgeek.com During last week's action packed crossover, we didn't see much of Clifford DeVoe aka The Thinker but he returned in the mid-season finale for Barry. In "Don't Run", DeVoe played Barry & his friends like a board game and by the end of the episode, had them exactly where he needed them to be. Things started well at the beginning of the episode with Barry & Iris opening wedding gifts and the other members of Team Flash getting in the holiday spirit by doing a few decorations around Star Labs. Barry gets kidnapped by DeVoe and Caitlyn gets captured by Amunet (Katee Sackhoff) to help save Dominic who's also a meta. Coincidence? I don't think so. Caitlyn refused to help at first but eventually performs the surgery that saved his life and they both escape. Barry is trapped in a force field by DeVoe but he's able to escape and they both fly round the city crashing into buildings. To be honest, this scene looked a little r...

Image via cwtv.com "The Flash Reborn" begins 6 months after the events of last season, since Barry walked into the Speed Force. Kid Flash has been fighting crimes since then and Iris is now leading what's left of the Star Labs team which means, she's now kind of like Felicity in Arrow. Harrison Wells 2.0 (Tom Cavanaugh) is no more after he died at the end of season three and Julian (Tom Felton) has "gone back to London". I'm really happy about this because it felt like they were focusing on too many characters last season, now they can focus on the real team Barry, Cisco, Cateline, Iris and Joe. The team was able to bring back Barry from the Speed Force but he returned as a completely different person. He couldn't really remember anyone of his friends and kept talking gibberish. It only took Iris putting herself in danger for him to snap back into reality and become The Flash again. I feel like this was too easy and quick. Barry was in the Spe...

After watching the first episode of the flash I was a little confused and angry at the same time at Barry's behavior. The second season ended with me yelling at Barry not to go back in time to stop his mother's death. After the death of Barry's father in the second season, his grief made him forget how it was a terrible idea to mess with the timeline. The episode begins a few months after Barry goes back in time, he's living in his own bubble and excited to be with his parents again.  He's also the only one who remembers the other existing timeline. In this timeline Wally is the Flash, Iris doesn't know who he is, Joe is a drunk, Kathleen isn't a scientist and Sisco is a tech billionaire.  Barry also keeps the reverse flash, Eobarde Thawne in prison who keeps warning him that his going back in time was a terrible idea. Barry starts loosing his memories from his timeline and he ends up going back to the reverse flash for help.   T...
