The All Things Flash Thread. - Part 2

[Flint Marko]

I wish I could run into a parallel reality where Ezra wasn't a complete **** so I could justify seeing this in theaters.

The two Barry thing looks dumb and some of the CGI looks iffy but overall, I quite liked that trailer.

 

[Filmfreak]

Some of the CGI shots and green screen look awful, but the cinematography is much better than I thought when I saw the teaser. Honestly, it looks like a really solid and different flick. It's very much like an event film and definitely bigger in scale than I thought. It's almost the only thing that I'm interested in terms of superhero films this year.

 

[Arachnerd]

This is the type of tone that DC should strive for moving forward. Leave the Hot Topic grimdark bull**** behind.

Okay, regardless of whether someone liked and disliked the old DCEU movies, there's been no DC movie with such a tone since 2016. What are you talking about?

 

[AndrewGilkison]

This feels like the Flashpoint Paradox animated movie, with Keaton's Batman in the Thomas Wayne role and Sasha's Supergirl in the skinny Superman role.

 

[kguillou]

One of you guys said this a couple pages back and I think its appropriate: this looks like an epic epilogue to the DCEU. A proper send off to this universe.

 

[Arachnerd]

I'm not sure if you can call it a proper send-off just yet, but yeah it'll be the last remnant of that particular universe.

 

[DyeLorean]

I can see that some of the special effects are a bit dodgy but honestly it just looks fun. Something I'm sorely missing in superhero movies lately.

 

[emielaen]

The CGI is iffy, but the camera work is pretty dynamic considering what we usually get out of superhero films. This looks good. This "awful" rhetoric feels forced lol

 

[AndrewGilkison]

That bike Affleck is riding looks like the Batpod from the Nolan movies. I thought it was a shot of Bale's Batman for a sec.

 

[kguillou]

Gunn’s gushing about this.

 

[herolee10]

Seeing as how good this film looks (e.g., cinematography, VFX), it just makes me even more upset that Cavill's cameo was cut from it.

 

[Bary]

This looks awesome regardless of shady cgi

 

[Invader Joker]

Gunn’s gushing about this.

Well he's the CEO of the studio that dumped 300 million dollars into this.

 

[Rick190293]

Love it, but I always love DC's trailers looks like it will be very emotional, and I think Ezra will deliver it since Snydercut improved his character a lot, IMO. Batkeaton never looked so fluid, didn't he? I like his costume, but not a fan of the jaw area. Ben looks tired and is always good to see his Batman, althrough the costume this time is very ugly. Supergirl and Zod both looks great.

 

[emielaen]

Lol gotta love that good ol patented DC fan cynicism

 

[AndrewGilkison]

They really made a mistake having this released before Aquaman 2. This should be the last movie in the DCEU before the reboot.

 

[Jordan Elliot]

Some of the shots in this were definitely giving off that Army of the Dead “shot it in my garage” vibe.

 

[herolee10]

They really made a mistake having this released before Aquaman 2. This should be the last movie in the DCEU before the reboot.

To be fair, this film was originally meant to reboot the current DCEU and not erase it completely. Plus, I doubt that they could complete AQ 2 in time for a summer release.

True but i dont see him giving this same love to the other DC movies comin’ out this year. I think this is genuine.

 

[flickchick85]

Gunn’s gushing about this.

Literally his job.

 

[Arachnerd]

True but i dont see him giving this same love to the other DC movies comin’ out this year. I think this is genuine.

We'll see once the movie comes out. As has been pointed out, it's not like he can't badmouth the movie and him saying this is one of the best DC movies ever made reeks of hyperbole and PR talk to me.

 

[Invader Joker]

True but i dont see him giving this same love to the other DC movies comin’ out this year. I think this is genuine.

Probably because this movie has more going against it for obvious reasons.

...Batkeaton never looked so fluid... I like his costume, but not a fan of the jaw area.

Well, Keaton is no spring chicken. Alas, the jowls, the chin(s), etc. tend to sag. So a little extra cowl (to keep things tucked in) might be a necessary accommodation.

 

[flickchick85]

Probably because this movie has more going against it for obvious reasons.

AND more money sunk into it.

 

[DyeLorean]

I know is Gunn's job now but he could easily keep his mouth shut. He isn't saying the same thing about Shazam 2 and, judging by his years and years of tweeting and answering questions and fans etc, he seems to be quite genuine.
