The Flash S05E08 - The Past Is Prologue FULL REACTION

The time travel rules with multiple versions of yourself are a little different on LOT because they are using the ship and time drive and not the speed force.

I don't if anyone caught it but I think the mention of Shrek chemicals where Cicada worked may be a reference to the Batman Returns film and the villian Max Shrek's company.

the end credit scene was in the supergirl episode just not legends

Khallum Vithal

Same, There's some huge ones on that box

Tony

the funny bit about the old man comment is that Nora's actress is older than Barry's.

She's just been informed, She might fix it later

Tony

Yeah, fight with Cicada was the worst part of the episode, but the rest was just *chef's kiss emoji*, just perfection, just exactly what I didn't knew I wanted. Also the episode is called "What's Past is Prologue", you mistitled it a bit, but it's a quote from William Shakespeare. Also the episode was directed by Tom Cavanagh, and he played Fake Wells from the PA explotion, again him from s1\s2 in the Vault with handcuffed Barry, Harry from s2, Sherloque in the present, and Blondie in the prison in 2049! The man is f'n MVP of this show) Also, I wish they defeated Cicada this episode........he's too corny, I can't take him seriously.

Sorry I’m just a little worried about her seeing spoilers

Ryan George

She knows, No worries. She'll try to not look at the box :)

Tony

The reason Cicada was able to get his dagger back was because of magic, as he explains here: https://youtu.be/ORy4WMNGmEw?t=23

Jon Dub

just a heads up

Ryan George

There are spoilers on the dvd cover

Ryan George

It makes sense that Thawne refers to Nora as Dawn. Thawne's past was in The Flash's original, unchanged comic book timeline where Barry's mother was never murdered, that is something that Thawne went back and changed. So in Thawne's past where Barry gets his powers later than he does in this show, his mother isnt murdered and so he calls his daughter Dawn, but in the shows timeline, because his mother is murdered, Barry chooses to name his daughter Nora, in memory of his murdered mother.

Jon Dub

Yeah this is my favorite hundreth episode so far in the arrowverse so was looking forward to this reaction :) Other shows might bring characters from the past back, but flash does the reverse and literally revisit the past :D I also enjoyed the reverse flash reveal at the end

MagnusVD

For number 2: Remember that that is the day he had traveled to before so he know exactly what happened that day and Barry being on the street with his costume was part of that

MagnusVD

yeah I think it's open to interpretation that either Barry had twins in reverse flash original timeline or thawne is referring to that he has still one Nora :)

MagnusVD

I thought that as well Patrick like a very smirky douchebag moment where Reverse Flash basically gloats that he killed Barry’s mom

Kevin Tran

He also could have just meant, you still have one ... (Nora). Since he killed the other one (Barry's mom).

Patrick - Excelsior

I always thought that when Thawne was talking about how Barry would've had 2 children (I guess the Tornado Twins) instead of 1, he was implying that when he changed the timeline by killing his mom, his 2 kids were "Flashpointed" out of existance and replaced with Nora instead, kinda like Sara Diggle being replaced with John Diggle Jr

When your started with this season of the Arrowverse I couldn't wait for you to reach this episode. I did my waiting and your reaction lived up to all my expectations and more.

MovingFortress

Nice réaction again ! I can't wait to see you react to the next crossover 😁 Good Day to you

Anthony P

Because the power Of the scénario

Anthony P

I never understood why vibe threw the dagger into space rather than a dead earth.

James jackson

There are some weird things here.. 1. Cicadas weapon doesnt work on Killer Frost but prison and cuffs work on her 🤔 well maybe they dont suppress dark matter so it works on her too? Idk 2. Barry just left s1 Barry for hours on the street with his costume.. thats rly dangerous.. 3. What happened to Zoom? Well that was prob a time remnant? But still there have to be some changes..

Kart

Legends didn't have the crossover tease at the end but Supergirl did, you just paused the episode before it appeared
