CW series The Flash

What I don't like, is that they both remind me too much of Singer's Xmen At least they have some color on them.

Apparently the pilot has leaked online and it sounds like there are a ton of Easter Eggs and tease of a major comic storyline being integrated to the show at the end of it.

I just finished watching and I loved it as well! So many Easter eggs to geek out on! It was great seeing John Wesley Shipp again. I loved the relatively optimistic and lighter tone compared to Arrow. And the end scene made me geek out at the prospect of seeing it happen!

Just an awesome pilot! I can't wait until fall! :yes

Yep, I'm really excited at how the writers will be able to build to it. Also, if you look closer at the end scene, you can see a huge Easter egg regarding a certain main DC character! Hopefully the positive buzz for the leaked pilot continues to build and doesn't wayne towards the official release in the fall.

Definitely an odd start. Considering the sign on the cage at ground zero, there's one of the great Flash villains to look forward to, but with the ending...

Spoiler:

who is Tom supposed to be? Just a new dude with a secret agenda or do you think they gave Iris' boyfriend Zoom's name to throw people off and Tom is going to turn out to be Zoom?

I probably missed some other clues, maybe I'll re watch it tomorrow.

spoilers only post , so if you want some show info , read on

Spoiler:

honestly i think his name is just a decoy to someone else then prof zoom or your right and the boyfriend is not zoom and hes there to trow us off, and i think that either one is going to be since the good doc knows too much, or last option , hes booster gold and the machine was skeet. i know im fetching here but i have a feeling hes not prof zoom , that his actual name is going to be a shocker, also the girl Snow is killer frost in the comics and the other guy from star labs is Vibe , a superhero. Also about the easter eggs in the pilot, including those i just mentioned , we got a wayne note with queen merging, we have arrow showing up in starling, Gorilla Grodd's name on the cage, we saw future flash in his comic accurate suit, we saw a glimpse of zoom in suit, we saw a hint to a crisis where Flash went missing during, so is this crisis on infinite earth , if so thats where barry dies, and Wally takes over what crisis do they mean since theres several n the comics, and if it is infinite earth crisis then they got major b4lls to attempt something like that on this show for sure.

Plus the runway track alludes to

Spoiler:

Ferris, thus GL. Also, the red skies that the newspaper at the end may allude to Darkseid invading in the future. Regarding Thawne, perhaps the officer is a red herring and is a descendent of Cavanagh/Zoom?

[batfan08]

So, is this like a "shaky" leaked pilot, or the same quality as what we'll see in October?

It looks normal 'tv' quality.
Better than the Wonder Woman pilot quality I have, so it was a pleasant surprise.

Yeah, I was thinking he's there to throw us off, plus, technically his name is Eddie, not Eobard, but back when I heard that casting I thought it was just a minor TV change, but your idea seems like it could be very likely.

 

[GasparZizou]

So, the pilot I watched is leaked?

Anyway, meh start, too melodramatic and needs more comedy, but beats AoS any day of the week.

Looks like Iron Man 3's (and Die Hard 2's, and Shawshank's, and Bill and Ted's, and Tales from the Crypt's, and other stuff's) William Sadler has joined The Flash as Simon Stagg, which, for hardcore DC fans, should be a pretty familiar name.

He posted this on Twitter:

New updates:

Prison Break's Wentworth Miller has signed on to appear in the series fourth episode as Leonard Snart—aka Captain Cold—one of the most feared villains in the Flash universe.

Adding to the casting news, Robbie Amell (cousin of Arrow's Stephen, and star of canceled The Tomorrow People) will play Caitlin Snow's (Danielle Panabaker) fiancé, Ronnie Raymond. And as a special nod to all Allen fans, John Wesley Shipp, who played The Flash in an earlier adaptation, is back in a recurring role as Barry's dad.

And as for all you diehard comic book lovers out here, DC Comics creative chief Geoff Johns promised that The Flash will stay true to its fast-paced roots. "We incorporated everything from the mythology into it, and added a backstory. It's probably the most faithful DC Comics adaptation ever," he said. "We were so intent on making sure this was true to the character."

Even though The Flash's problems in Central City will mainly be separate from the crime-riddled Starling City in Arrow, the network has already planned a special two-hour crossover event later this fall. "Episodes 8 of both shows, Arrow and Flash, are going to be a two-hour crossover event," Kreisberg said to TVGuide following the panel. "[Also], in Episode 4, Felicity [Emily Bett Rickards] is going to come to The Flash."

As for The Flash's iconic suit? Producers explained the suit will continue to change and evolve over the episodes thanks to innovations by Allen’s support team at Star Labs.

That's fantastic.
