Heck, even Stephen Amell said he preferred the Flash episode more than the Arrow version.

He knew enough about Captain Cold to call out Barry on it. But Captain Cold hasn't done much. And nobody really seems to know about Firestorm yet. Whereas Starling City had hundreds of people die in the first season finale, plus who knows how many in the 2nd season finale

I don't know whether to upvote this, or flag it…

Well my sidekick *who looks like an Abercrombie model* used to boof my half sister

Both of those things bothered me, but since then I've rationalized the first one away to some extent.

If they didn't go as far (or quite as fast) that could have prevented it

Haven't you watched Flash though? Everything slows down. He just dodges everything.

Um - the point of this episode was dealing with how difficult a decision it can be, and Oliver realizing that it was his torture that lead to the heroes being tricked.

Downvoted for downvoting just because of a hashtag

Iris is definitely more attractive than Felicity - and maybe Barry is smart enough to realize that she'd look amazing in an amazing dress too.

That's more generous than me - I probably would have gone with the explosive arrow

I have a sneaking suspicion she may WISH he'd died instead…

I think it's more likely that he'll break her heart.

Yes.

Not only that, but would his powers actually allow him to do that?

I view it the opposite way. Every show has one of two things - the stereotyped Cisco nerd, or the not-really-a-nerd Skye nerd.

I just hope they give him some things so he doesn't become the stereotype nerd (which he basically already is)

They're probably going to. Why else have the same name for her character. (Also, see what's happening in Arrow)

I think he was pretty well-known before all the tragedies. He could have easily been listed on a "most eligible bachelor" list

What if he wouldn't want a son to be a cop either? Barry investigates crime scenes after the fact - he doesn't walk around with a service revolver.
