Although it is certainly impossible to film based on the original comics based on a platform like TV, the inexplicable changes are simply superfluous. The original Barry has always been tall, sturdy, and a classic American hero image. Although this is a bit inappropriate in the play, at least it should be made stronger. Gustin is really too thin. Especially when I put on the "dark red" tights, I look thinner. The most inexcusable Barry should be blonde! Even if the actor is not blonde, is it that difficult to dye blonde or wear a wig?
Second, Iris, who many people complain about, the problem also lies with the actors. Why look for a black man? If needed for the TV platform, you can give up some special effects or others. This is understandable, but does the actor's skin color have anything to do with the TV platform? The original book later changed Iris' skin color, but the others were Latino, like Gloria in the modern family.
Third, it may be the design of the screenwriter, at least I hope it is. In the play, Dr. Wells is a reverse lightning from all aspects. He is a scientist, he has reverse flash clothes, he constantly stimulates Barry to increase his speed, and he knows the future. But in the play his name is Harrison Wells instead of Swan! ! ! Then you can think of it this way. The screenwriter hopes that Dr. Flash is not called Swann, but a different name. That's right, why have to limit the reverse flash to Swann? But since the reverse flash is not called Swann, why arrange for an Ayres actor to be called Swann? This is inexplicable.
But there is such a possibility in the Flash that the Doctor has always been Swann, and has never been Wells. It can be explained that the doctor took out the future newspaper at the end of the first episode, and the Flash disappeared in 2024. According to the comics, this is a major event, the crisis of the infinite earth, and Barry's power is fully utilized to save the world. So the doctor comes from the future, that's for sure, this is the same as the setting of the flashback. But there is a paradox that people from the future cannot exist at the same time as themselves. It means that the future you can go back to the past, but you cannot see the past. The doctor comes from the future, but he can't be called Swann, or he can't be Swann, he must be someone else, such as occupying someone else's body with his soul, or something else. Or he becomes Wells the result of the paradox. The mass-energy equation determines that the speed of light cannot be broken, but if a shot is fired on a train close to the speed of light, the bullet does not reach the speed of light relative to the train, but it breaks the speed of light relative to the ground (plus the speed of the train close to the speed of light). But the mass-energy equation tells us that the speed of light cannot be reached, which forms a paradox. Then the result of the amendment of the laws of nature is that time will naturally become faster, which is the principle of the time machine. So the doctor's name Wells may be the result of the amendment of the laws of nature.
The Ph.D. comes from the future, but is it from the 25th century? Or is it coming around 2024? If it is from the 25th century, then Swann in the play may be the ancestor of the flashback, or a robot, a biochemical person or something. Because Reverse Lightning hates the Flash extremely, but can't kill the Flash, so taking away the Flash's love will make the Flash extremely painful. So he killed Barry's mother and arranged for a biochemical person to snatch Barry's sister. The biochemical man named Swan was arranged to show that he did it himself (as if the flashpoint paradox Swann gave Barry the clothes from the flashpoint). And if the Ph.D. is from around 2024, then Dr. Wells is the result of the paradox. He came from the future and didn't even need to care what he would be like, what his name was, or what identity he was. Because all this is the result of the amendment of the laws of nature, he doesn't need to change it, he can't change it either.
Another possibility is also about the paradox caused by traveling through time and space. Because the newspapers of the future clearly mention the "crisis of the infinite earth." The "Infinite Earth Crisis" is the first major reshuffle of DCU. Before the end of the shuffle, no matter how chaotic time and space are, the same person exists in the same dislocation time and space, but the identity is different, or it has become another existence. . For example, in the same Batman, the No. 1 Earth (remember that the original Earth was No. 1 before the occurrence of the flashpoint N52 was changed to the No. 0 Earth) Cup noodles is the master, but in the world through the flashpoint, the cup noodles became the father's father Too sir.
