So far, so good.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

The costume's looking good so far, I'm fine with the darker red tone. I typically don't really mind colors being more muted for live action shows or movies as it just makes a bit more sense and is easier to pull off without looking dumb. I only really care about changes if it's something drastic.

I like it!

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Very nice :up: Modern but definitely, definitively the Flash.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Looks pretty good :up:

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Looks good! Although the Spidey pose doesn't help it. :p

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I like it too. Now bring on Gorilla Grodd!

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I love it for the most part. The worst thing about the photo is the terrible pose.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I'll say again...

!!!!!!!

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

WB/DC would be insane not to use TV Green Arrow and Flash in a movie. When you are already short on time to introduce many characters, this would help.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Considering that these characters were part of the JL during Smallville and then scrapped for updated versions, I'm not going to hold my breath that they'll be reincorporated into a JL feature.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I didn't watch Smallville past the first few seasons, but wasn't Bart Allen the Flash on that show? Bart is a different character from Barry.

I would say Barry/Flash will almost certainly be in the Justice League movie. Whether or not they recast him or not is debatable, but Flash is one of the "Big Six" and will almost certainly be there. Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Flash, and Aquaman are the Big Six. If any of them get replaced, it will be Aquaman with Captain Marvel/Shazam, like they did in the new animated movie Justice League: War.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I really like it. It fits in the "Arrow" universe well and is very clearly The Flash. I like it as much as I liked the original live action series suit.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Yes. He was Bart Allen on Smallville. He carried a bunch of fake IDs with different names including Barry Allen, Wally West and Jay Garrick. He was "The Flash" in his first appearance but became "Impulse" later on. This was because of a brewing Flash feature film that never materialized.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

No white in the insignia? Boo.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

That would make sense, but WB does things ass backwards.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Wooow, love that costume. :up:

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

In other words, you don't think WB will be using the TV versions in the JL movie. :)

Some more looks at the costume.:)

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Woof

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Erm....uh....hmmm...no.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Very Daredevil looking.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Yeah, now looking at it functionally, it doesn't say Scarlet Speedster to me. It's more, "how the hell do you run fast in leather?" This is now one where I would have preferred a costume similar to Cavill's Superman.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Everything looks fine above the waist. They did a great job on the hood and mask. I even like the belt. It's closer to a true comic book costume than I ever imagined on the CW.

The patent leather look below the waist doesn't really work for a character meant to be a runner. It just doesn't look comfortable to run in. They should have gone with mostly spandex below the waist. Could anyone imagine Usain Bolt running in those pants? We'll have to see how they pull off the running FX.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

uh... don't like. Tough to run in leather pants, no?

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I still like it but the pants need to be redone. Maybe he updates the costume throughout the series?

One more.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Couldve done without the black lightning on the cowl. Still miss the white.

Wish it looked like this (not my pic):

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Is that black lightning or just a lightning-shaped groove?

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

It looks like a lightning shaped pair of grooves.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I thought everyone knew that only leather could stand up to the sheer forces as you near the speed of light.:lol:

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I'm hoping they move away from the Smallville/bullet time effects that were used whenever Clark moved at super speed.

Loved how they handled super speed in Man of Steel.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I may not be a fan of Snyder but am glad he went anti-slomo to depict super speed. :up:

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I don't mind the slo-mo effect, I hope they do include a trail of light as he runs, leaving a blurring smear behind him.

I think the budget needed for the speed seen in Man of Steel would be too great for a weekly show. That requires a lot of blocking and other things.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

How the fuck is he gonna fit all that leather in his ring? From what I remember he created some light weight material that can withstand friction and expanded when it was released from the ring. I guess that's hoping for too much.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

The "costume in ring" Silver Age nonsense is best left back there. It was silly, even then. Charming, but silly.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Seeing it in full like this makes me think of a Steampunk Flash. I still like it a lot.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

I don't mind the leather, but I do mind the bagginess and bunching up the costume does when he bends.

Re: CW’s ‘The Flash’ To Do Stand-Alone Pilot Instead Of ‘Arrow’ Backdoor Pilot Episod
 

Maybe it'll be a "Year One" type thing were his suit evolves if the series goes past S1....

Remember that he's smart and the fact that he designed Arrow's new mask. So he knows something about making functional hero costumes. I'm willing to give him the benefit of doubt.
