also i will admit that barry being tricked into throwing a full-force lightning bolt at iris and hitting her with every single bit of the godlike strength he’s been building up all season was a really good twist. very reminiscent of gwen’s death in TASM, very poignant, had the potential to be really emotionally devastating plot... if they hadn’t done such a piss-poor job of building up to it. idk how they all fumbled this one so badly, like unanimously fucked up what should have been this massively devastating moment
like first of all, they spent half the season completely downplaying westallen’s relationship and iris’ importance as a whole. they have done her a HUGE fucking disservice this season, honestly. like we know how important she is. we saw literally just 2 seasons ago that when iris disappeared and was replaced, barry did not fucking rest until he had figured out how to get her back, to the point where he did some extremely deranged things in order to get her out of the mirrorverse. but in this season everyone was literally like “iris is missing? well she’ll turn up, i guess :/ ”
like i really liked the curious case of bartholomew allen, it was a really fun ep, but they were playing DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS while iris was trapped in some fucking alternate time loop dimension. i’m sorry, if you told barry that some future version of himself was playing D&D and getting his cheeks pinched by old ladies while iris was missing, he would hunt that version of himself down and punch him so fucking hard??
and it’s like okay, so the writing of the show these days is often Not Great. i have come to accept this as an unfortunate fact of life. but we can at least generally rely on the cast to deliver a good performance. they do the best they can with what they have, you know? and all credit to them for delivering some of this godawful material and actually pulling off a very good performance that almost makes you forget how much the writing sucks
except apparently now we can’t even trust them to do that because i just watched mr barry allen accidentally electrocute his own wife and not shed a SINGLE TEAR.
we know grant can act so why the FUCK did he not give it a bit more oomph in this scene. like. barry is fighting the negative forces, they have godlike power, so he is giving it all he’s got. and just as he hits the peak and throws all of this deadly lightning, at the moment it leaves his fingertips and he no longer has any control over it, iris appears in its path. there is literally nothing he can do to stop it, it’s too late, and he is powerless to do anything but look on in horror as iris takes the full force of what is maybe the most powerful blow the flash has ever dealt
and THIS is the reaction we get?
like sorry, i saw him get more upset over the fucking mug that joe broke in season 1. what the hell is this??
this is IRIS we’re talking about. when savitar killed her in season 3, barry was fucking screaming his throat raw, clinging to her, tears streaming down his face. take a look at these two scenes and tell me they are even REMOTELY comparable. i dare you
when savitar killed iris, barry was DESTROYED and that wasn’t even his fault. you’re telling me that he could deliver the death blow HIMSELF, shoot a bajillion bolts of lightning into her chest, and then not shed a single tear? grant gets paid too much money to phone it in like that, i’m sorry
