First Reactions To THE FLASH Speed In; GOTHAM Praised As "Beautifully Produced"

A lucky few recently got to watch the pilot for The Flash, and they've taken to Twitter to share their thoughts on the latest series from The CW. Are they good or bad? You'll have to hit the jump to find out, where you'll also find a verdict on Batman prequel Gotham.

So, I think it's fair to call that an overwhelmingly positive response, and certainly a lot better than the initial reaction to Arrow! Gotham was recently screened in Los Angeles, and The Hollywood Reporter reveals that it is the series said to have gained the most buzz with buyers from overseas. Sarah Wright, head of acquisitions for BSkyB (meaning that the series will likely air on Sky One of Sky Atlantic in the UK) is quoted as describing it as, "A smart origins story, beautifully produced with a strong cast." Which of these new DC TV shows are you guys most looking forward to?

Sorry to be that guy but you can never trust the first twitter reviews. Surely you guys have learnt that by now?

Hopefully Gotham is as good as they're saying it is.




Now we just need to hear about Constantine. Right now we're two for three.

Not surprised with the Flash reactions. The show looks like a lot of fun. Worried about Gotham though. I want the show to go well. Hopefully, it will be well-received.

@SpiderMiles and BatManiac: it got retconned because that assclown, the Reverse Flash, changed history by killing Barry's mom.

"I had high expectations for The Flash pilot..."






"But that went FAR beyond what I expected!"

Flash looks great, looking forward to it more than Arrow but still not impressed with Gustin. I do believe he went overboard on Arrow (and the trailer tbh)... But people burned me for that, so have to come up with something else :/

Cool beans.

I'm yet to watch Arrow. I'll start it once I get around to finishing AOS. I hate falling behind.

@Kurne

Exactly. But don't say something bad about this Hipster-Parker that's murdered Barry Allen and assumed his identity, such heresy in that opinion deviation!!
