Flash Movie: Barry? Wally? ...Bart?

Which incarnation of the Flash will be put into the Flash movie? We all know the options-- Jay, Barry, Wally, or even Bart.

In my opinion, it should be Wally. Yes, he's Flash 3.0, but I think he's a more marketable character than the others. And if they end up going with Ryan Reynolds to portray Flash, Wally would be a much better fit for his personality.

However, if they do go with Wally, they would have to do some major work on his origin. As you know, Barry was still around when West got his powers, so how do you explain that? As much as I would love to see him start out as Kid-Flash (meaning Barry is in the film at the beginning) I don't think audiences will go for it.

I just hope they can pull it off without mutilating whatever character they choose.

Your thoughts?

Barry is legendary superhero that is mentioned in the movie but who quits when his wife is killed by...Professor Zoom. Wally continues in his footsteps when he undergones the same accident and finds out that Flash is his uncle. He faces Zoom and new villain (Grodd, Weather Wizard) in the movie later. He wins, everything ends up good.

Sounds great to me. The Barry tie-in is absolutely necessary if they use Wally.

Wally is cooler than Barry but Barry should get props...I could see Wally in a tough situtation and he'd say "what would uncle Barry do?"

Umm I dont think they should have Zoom in this one , maybe in the sequel. Zoom = too many speedsters in one movie........

I reckon it should be Wally.............

I'd hold Zoom back until the part 2 "Flash Runs again" or the "Flash races on"

So would I. DarkCrawlers idea was good though. And the two villain thing has got to be in there.

I think fights between two speedsters would be awesome...

me too but seeing a fight between a speedster and talking telepathic ape would be cool too.
