His age is fine. This is a TV series that could go on for years, thus they need someone with legs where age is concerned.

Also, explain to me how does it "sound pretty bad" because as far as I know, we know little of the plot, and we have yet to see it in action.

You complain about every little detail, and you don't think before you transform into an Internet politician who loves to babble nonsense on a regular basis. Please stop for the sake of the comments area, it is not viewed by just you alone lol.

Jeez, people need to stop this BS, we have seen close to nothing of this new show, who are you to say it sounds pretty bad? Based on what, exactly?

Maybe Gustin won't do justice to the character, but at least he was pretty decent when he featured on Arrow. Also him being young is a plus in my opinion, and quite a good bet. I mean, Green Arrow may not be a necessary presence in the movies universe (although it is a mistake if they don't include him) but Flash certainly is, and by casting a young actor they secure the opportunity to follow the development of Barry Allen UNTIL HE IS BARRY ALLEN, the Flash everyone's used to.

Just calm the f*ck down and give it a try, it's no use thinking "oooh this is sooo bad, it will suck so baad". I agree the costume doesn't look very good, but hey, who knows, maybe in motion it will be better, and also, it's a freaking show, if it's popular it will spawn more seasons, who's to say they don't make changes to it. Be grateful we have something at all and stop whining.

But it is in my rights to criticize a comment I don't agree with. I'm sure you've rebuffed the comments of others before, so what's the problem?

If you get your panties in a twist everytime someone criticizes your comments, then please get off the internet. :D

Will have to wait and see how the Pilot holds up. I have high hopes, but I think my main concern is not the story or characters which Arrow has shown to be successful, but more of the running and how believable it looks.

I dont want it to be cheesy.

It could be a Flash 1.0 design. In arrow theyve shown to develop the costumes further on into the show.

So maybe he'll get skin-tights and bright red when he becomes more of a hero in the public eye.
