    Um hi... I don't mean to sound rude but this is the wrong section you've asked this in. This is the Fan Fic forum where we post stories about our face characters.

    On the other hand if I had to choose someone to play Flash I'd say... Michael Rosenbaum. Partly because he has experience with the character and partly because he's awesome. As for what Flash? Barry Allen. They could always have both Barry and Wally in the film but in turns of main character I say Barry.

    @leatherface003 Welcome to Comic Vine! hope you enjoy the site and all that jazz.

    I moved this to Barry Allen's forum (it could be put in General I supose). Fan Fic is for stories only. That would be more related to comics or comicbook movies, so it either goes in a specic character's forum or in the general section. Just letting you know.

    Maybe it's just me, but Michael Rosenbaum looks so weird with hair...maybe because I'm used to him as Lex. Just thought I'd note that.

    It should definitely be BarryAllen because of his character dynamic with Hal Jordan. But if John Stewart is the GL or if green lanterns not even in the movie, then Id say Wally west.
