I did watch the ending scene. My reaction to it is in the middle of my rant in the end of the video, for those who want to see it. Also I love how this film shows how powerful speedsters are. Barry Allen could literally destroy the entire world if he wanted. As they've shown us here. He's definitely top 3 superheros for me just from this film. He feels like such a down to earth superhero, who makes mistakes and is vulnerable. He's definitely relatable.. Anyways, thanks for watching.
If you want to see Flashs dad hes in The Flash movie. As a die hard DC fan its a solid 8/10 movie. Don’t believe the critics, you be your own judge. Plus Michael Keatons Batman is in the movie so thats epic. Its the same plot as Flashpoint Paradox, so no surprises except for Barrys dad’s canon backstory
Justice League Flashpoint Paradox started the DCAMU( DC Animated Movies Universe) and ended with Justice League Dark Apokolypes War. Next movie after Flashpoint Paradox is Justice League War check it out, it's awesome.
@@kermitgotthesickkicks4265 How much you want to bet he will give it a 7/10 or over? Its easy to say something is bad. But at least give constructive criticism. Im mot saying its the best movie but besides some CGI the story was pretty solid. And thats what matters most is the backstory. Especially the cameos not trying to spoil it, but the earths hit right in the feels. Since i grew up with late 80s and 90s DC
This man is sitting comfortably on the mount Rushmore of haters in fiction, the only other one that comes close to to be as petty as him is Dio from Jojo's bizarre adventure 😂😂😂
Flash's dad doesn't show up in this movie. But his dad was framed for the murder of barrys mom and sent to prison. It inspired Barry to become a forensic scientist in homicide to solve the murder!
It didn’t technically inspire him to do that. Even before Eobard went back and changed history, Barry still became a forensic scientist and still became a hero when he got his powers.
Reverse flash is a petty mf. Some things he has done are go back in time and -Push flash down a flight of stairs -Making him fuck up during a baseball match -Make him drop his books and losing his homework -Leave his door open so his dog would run out and get run over by a car -Remove his childhood best friend from the timeline so Barry would spend it alone
@@devilaasura3827 no? they know if they break those rules, itll just get someone way worse than flash on their backs. theyre smart villains who know not to press their luck
All of The Flash's most popular villains (Who don't have super speed, and are not Gorillas) are called "The Rouges". Trust me, when you get to know them better you'll love them.
In the comics, Barry's mother was murdered by Thawne and his father got framed for it Thawne is an obsessed Flash fan from the 25th century who later become his greatest enemy
There's already a bunch of comments talking about it, but this is important. This movie is the beginning of the DCAMU (DC Animated MOVIE Universe), which takes heavy influence from the controversial "New 52" DC comics reboot. Don't get it confused with the DCAU (DC Animated Universe) The beloved interconnected universe of shows and movies.
I just found out there was a series of comic that tells what happened after dcau ended. What batman did in those comics really disgust me. No wonder nightwing never show up in the batman beyond series as he hated bruce.
@@hoyinleung7668 yeah they kinda character assassinated him in some of the DCAU comics. Especially anything to do with Bruce x Barbara aka the worst ship in DC
The group of villains at the beginning are called The Rogues. They're pretty fun characters. They treat villainy like its blue-collar work. They also have a fun frenemy relationship with flash. Often teaming up with flash to defeat a more powerful villain.
You should definitely watch this whole universe, the order is 1. Flaspoint paradox 2. Justice League war 3. Son of batman 4. Justice League throne of atlantis 5. Batman vs Robin 6. Batman Bad Blood 7. Justice League vs Teen Titans 8. Justice League Dark 9. Teen Titans The Judas Contract 10. Suicide Squad Hell To Pay 11. The Death of superman 12. Constantine city of demons 13. Reign of the supermen 14. Batman Hush 15: Wonder Woman Bloodlines 16. Justice League Dark Apokolips War
I don’t blame you for thinking the villians are a little lame at a glance but mirror guy depending on how many of his weapons he got he’s REALLLY dangerous. Got his own lil mirror dimension n allat lol
(At 16:08) No, that's his racist little half brother Orm or his villain name, "Ocean Master". The two kids behind Ocean Master are Aquaman's apprentices that go by Aqualad (Yes, one is black and one is white). The "white" Aqualad in blue is Garth. The "black" Aqualad in red is Kaldur'ahm. Kaldur'ahm is also Black Manta's son. Garth is also one of the 4 founders of the Teen Titans.
When it comes to the Lanterns there are different colors each representing something different: Red:Anger,Yellow: Fear, Green:Willpower, Orange: Greed, Indigo: Compassion, Blue:Hope,Pink:Love,White:Life,Black:Death. They also each have a different oath.
People really forget that Aquaman is a big part of the Justice League for a reason, bro is super strong, is able to heal and gets stronger with liquid, like the blood from the cerberus that he came out of, and he has power over, I'm not a 100% on this one, any creature that is considered aquatic or at least from the ocean, like those microbes for example, with the added plus that because he's king of Atlantis he's able to use a magic trident and has the atlantean army backing him that has some advanced atlantean tech and a whole lot of magic, he's an actual menace, as long as there's liquid around of course, so he mostly stays out of fighting the more flight required or space battles, which are the more popular Justice League fights but tbh, when you live on a place where ocean covers most of the planet you're probably better off capitalizing on how much of a buff it is to anyway.
Thawn was a fanboy of Flash from the future, his admiration was so great that he even underwent surgery to look like Barry Allen and even replicated Flash's accident on himself, later he would obtain the "Cosmic Treadmill" an artifact that Flash used to travel in time or other universes in a controlled manner. He traveled to Flash's time but discovered that he himself would become "Professor Zoom" AKA Reverse Flash, this made him angry with Flash and he swore to ruin his life every chance he could.
Barry's one of 3 Flashes. The first is Jay Garrick, he was the OG and ran from the 30's-70's along with the OG Justice League (Justice Society/Guild at the time), Barry Allen is the 2nd (And unfortunately current) and had his run from the 70's-90's, and finally there's Wally West who was Barry's sidekick before getting promoted and was the main from the 90's-mid 10's. But there's a bunch of drama there. Basically the exec in charge of the Arrowverse shows hated Wally and loved Barry, so he made him the MC of The Flash show, which got super popular, leading to DC to bring Barry back from the dead and making him the lead Flash while Wally got demoted to a backup/deuteragonist despite being the headliner for over 20 years.
The alternate version of Batman where his father becomes Batman and uses guns and is an alcoholic really shows just how insanely amazing Bruce as Batman is. All the pain, and darkness and he never breaks. He doesn't kill, he doesn't succumb to substance addiction. Really shows that there can only ever be one true Batman, and that's Bruce.
If you want to actually get into reading comics, what you need to find out is what do you value the most. 1. Do you just love one character? Look up that characters best stories. 2. Do you like a certain writer's style? Find out what else they've written. 3. Is everything for you about the art style? (I personally will read anything that Alex Ross did the artwork for.) 4. For a lot of people it's just about genre. Certain superheroes typically stick to certain genres. ("Team books" like Justice League, Teen Titans, X-Men, or Avengers are a special genre of their own. That's my preference)
I know this movie is overwhelming and not explaining much, so here's bit of explaination on characters: - Barry Allen/The Flash. Was a normal kid until he found out his mom was killed and police putting a charge on his father Henry Allen. Determined to free his dad from the prison, he decided to solve the mysteey of that night by becoming a forensic scientist. Until one day he was near shelf of chemicals when the lightning struct him. He later obtained the Speedforce, a cosmic energy existing beyond space and time. Along with speed he obtained fast regeneration, metabolism and brain processing. - Reverse Flash/Professor Zoom. Real name Eobard Thawne. Was born in far future (23 century I belive) and was a big fan of the Barry Allen's Flash to the point he recreated the event that gave the powers. He came back in time to become a hero along with the Flash, but he was creating more chaos than help to the point that Flash had to stop him. Now, all you gotta know about Thawne that he's the pittiest man in universe. After being stopped by Barry, he started to hate him, so he came back in time again and was actually the one that killed Barry's mom. But after that, he could not return back into his age. He became a paradox and was forced to stay in 21st century, which he hated a lot due to how underdeveloped it is. But he then decided to keep torturing Barry by trying as hard as possible to make his life miserable. The Rogues - the group of Flash enemies that collectively go against the Flash. The members change time to time, but it mostly contains Captain Cold, Captain Boomerang and Mirror Master. But their main train is that they vowed to not kill while doing crimes, because they know that if Flash captures them, they are going to trial and it's better to be trialed for robberry than for murder. But lately Boomerang in DC media is the exception of that rule and he's quite unhinged overall. Now, I'm not a super expert on the Flash lore, so some slight fact I misremembered or didn't mentioned, like the fact that Thawne uses Negative Speedforce instead of usual one. But how he got it - I don't remember, all I know that it is artificial. Also, there's different people who act as the Flash. Like Jay Garrick (in comics he was the first ever Flash until Barry was created as the character) and Wally West (who is mostly known to be The Kid Flash as part of the Teen Titans team). And he's brother of Iris West, Barry's wife. So yeah, here's "entry level" info dump on The Flash.
In comics Barrys mother was un alive and the dad got blamed sent to prison for first degree in the last few iterations of the origin it was reverse flash who was the culprit . The girl next to him was his girlfriend Iris West and aunt of sidekick Wally West Barrys successor. Reverse Flash is basically an obsessive petty psycho fanboy he’s from the future and worked in the Flash museum idolized him to where he decided to recreate and infuse himself with the powers he got the same flash powers but but working from a negative version of the speed force the extra dimensional force of kinetic energy that gives flashes there powers. However he had the benefit of moving through time with his speed so he traveled back git desilusión and angry with Barry seeing he was a big part of his life discovered he was gonna be his archenemy and decided to embrace it doing all he could with his speed and time travel powers to make Barrys life as miserable as possible since childhood out of petty revenge making sure he was relevant to him as his greatest enemy.
Aquaman is probably the only league member who can match Diana and Superman in strength. I don't say that to say he is as strong as them but nearly. So many people do not realize how much of a powerhouse he is
plus he is ocean man and water everYwhere on this freakin Planet lol I always knew that he is cool dude and there so many League of Justice members Hal, Superman, Batman, Cyborg, Wonderwoman, Flash, Martian ManHunter - just top of iceberg true bros and heroes
@@gregdrowned9873 ya absolutely. I always hated when the Jason MaMoa aquaman came out and everyone was like "finally they made aquaman cool" and it's like did none of you grow up with the justice league or comic books at all? The aquaman from the justice league cartoon was KING in every aspect of the word and carried himself as such. Gave no sh*ts for anyone. One scene I remember is when Cadmus tried to take a cloned superhero from the justice leagues custody and superman and aquaman were the two to get between longshadow and the cadmus soldiers as a way of saying these are the two power houses of the JL and you cannot fight them.
@@kermitgotthesickkicks4265 to each their own. I never watched it. Found it to be too silver age for me. Too silly. Justice league will always be goated
Comic pop is a great channel to watch individual story lines from comics explained in like a conversational setting. The best way to get into comics in my experience is to pick up a few random single issues from a few different series and stick with what grabs you. Get a mix of marvel and dc. Brand loyalty is for chumps. The spice of life is variety after all.
To clarify, the character Zoom or Reverse Flash is known as one of the most vengeful villains in history, causing misfortune in Barry's life from a young age. Eobard Thawne, the man beneath the mask, hailed from the 25th century and had an intense fixation on Barry Allen, the Flash. Thawne underwent a procedure to resemble Barry and replicated the accident that granted Barry super speed, gaining powers of his own. However, Thawne uncovered a grim truth: he was fated to become Barry's archenemy, the Reverse Flash. This realization drove him to insanity, prompting him to travel back in time to meet his idol. Yet, his erratic behavior and foreknowledge of events tipped Barry off to his true intentions. Thawne's animosity towards Barry intensified, leading him to transform into the Reverse-Flash and using his speed and future knowledge to torment Barry and those close to him.
Finally, the DCAU starting from this flashpoint movie are all must see. If you can watch them in order, that'd be great too. I'm sure they'll do well for the channel in general. They're all bangers
This is Not called the DCAU (DC Animated Universe) That is the universe that starts with Batman The Animated Series and ends with Justice League Unlimited. This boring and underwhelming universe is called the DCAMU (DC Animated Movie Universe).
The Flash is one of my favorite heroes! There's been a few heroes to carry the mantle of Flash. Barry Allen and Wally West are my favorites. There's also the golden age Flash Jay Garrick who is pretty great.
Flashpoint Joker/Martha Wayne accidentally killed herself when she found out that her son would become the Batman, she had a mental meltdown and ran away without thinking then fell down to her death in the Batcave
Eobard Thawne when he was young was called professor zoom and worked at the flash museum doing tours and fanboying hardcore over Barry Allen. He learned all about things like the speed force and other speedsters through our history. Then, he decided to try a little cosplay and utilized different time travel methods to visit his hero. But when he set foot in nearish out time he found a world where Barry sacrificed himself to save the universe. He did however meet Barry and Iris' nephew Wally West, the modern flash. The cosplay worked a little too well and he pretended he was Barry, to impart wisdom to flash's protege. But then he learned his history, that the world only new him as a man called the reverse flash. This sent him back to his home time only to find now he wasn't a professional author of many histories of the flash, he was a janitor at the flash museum in this time. He ran back to Barry's younger flash and embraced the villain to make a better flash, a better him. Twisted by things like the negative speed force, greed, and delusional aspirations he spend his time fucking over Barry Wally Jay and even Barry's grand kids. In a move that upset the balance of space and time, he also murdered Barry's mother.
DC is goated. I look forward to your New 52 Animated Universe reactions. Great reaction! Oh and Barry’s father is in prison. He was framed for Barry’s moms murder
I don't dislike Barry Allen as a character but he has never been my favourite Flash and one of my least favourite things about him is that since his resurrection in the 2000s (before that he had been gone for about 25 years) they implemented a lot of elements from Wally West (Barry's nephew who was his sidekick Kid Flash and became Flash after Barry died in the comics) and pretended like it was Barry's. The speed force wasn't introduced in the comics untill the 90's when Wally was the Flash and believe me Wally West is the GREATEST Flash. Thankfully Wally is again the currently the mainline Flash in the comics.
The beginning of the movie when his mom tells him about having strength courage and wisdom is actually the "serenity prayer" used in Alcoholics/narcotics/etc. Anonymous. I go to a few meetings a week so I hear it all the time.
I HIGHLY recommend you check out the rest of the animated universe. The universe they build up and the stories they tell are amazing (and in the case of a couple of movies, better than the source material). It'll make you fall in love with the DC Universe for sure
Lets go im so glad your starting the DCAMU it has some flaws but it also has really stromg moments Im particularly looking forward to some specific reactions cant wait
Ok crazy thing about thawne is if I remember correctly he is immortal because he’s from the future way into the future and he got his powers by replicating the same thing that happened to the flash because he wanted to be him he ended up being the opposite of the flash aka reverse flash so thawne can’t kill Barry otherwise he wouldn’t have got his super powers so every reverse flash regardless if he dies or not will just come back
@@blaze3309 You're welcome! I'm also really enjoying watching your journey so far. I just watched your history of Batman video, you're Flashpoint video, and your JL War video back to back. They're all really good.
Reverse-Flash, also known as Eobard Thawne, gained his powers by replicating the Flash's Speed Force accident in the 25th century. A scientist and Flash fanatic, Thawne recreated the conditions to become a speedster himself. His obsession turned to hatred, leading him to use his speed to become the Flash's archenemy.
Jumping into a Justice League movie can be a little overwhelming. If you ever wanted to get aclaimated to all the characters individually I recommend: Superman vs The Elite All-Star Superman Green Lantern First Flight Wonder Woman 2007 Wonder Woman Bloodlines Superman/Shazam For other fun JL stories I recommend: The New Frontier Crisis on Two Earths Superman/Batman Public Enemies
You should check out All-Star Superman. Another direct adaptation to a comic book and James Gunn has said the new Superman movie will be heavily influenced by that comic.
9:23 he basically threw air at him the flash is seen using his speed to manipulate the air around him like if he spins his arm's fast enough he can cause tornadoes. 3:58 his dad got blamed for his mother's death hence why the flash because a detective to find find the really killer and to eventually find evidence to set his father free.
Comic books have collected books just like manga does. They're not all in order but certain stories and runs are. You don't have to buy single issues. I'm not sure if you were aware of that or not but most people still seem to assume that.
Thawne aka Zoom is the one who killed Barry’s mom in comics. He’s responsible for every bad thing that happened to Barry. He was originally Barry’s fan in the future who replicated his powers to be the new Flash, but went insane when he learned that history dictated he’s actually Barry’s archenemy, believing that Barry rejected him entirely.
The fact is that Reverse Flash tried to kill Barry in his childhood, but realized it would erased him. Technically, he can't kill Barry until he gets famous. Because, he was fan of him in the 25th century. Thats why, Reverse Flash messed with Barry's childhood. He erased his best friend from school and killed her mother. And some other stuff.
HIGHLY recommend you check out the shows The dark knight returns part 1 and 2, they explore a story of batman having to come back out of retirement, he's now in his 50s and the story of the batman has been reduced to no more than a local legend, real struggle, dark and interesting story with good development and really nice resolution, you'll love it!
Well if you're interested in aquaman you should watch his 2 dceu movies. And if you're interested in Hal Jordan green lantern you should watch the animated movie : Green lantern first flight
When u have time read the Flashpoint Beyond. Thomas Wayne is back as Flashpoint universe Batman and he don't know why. The story continues and some of the characters including new ones are introduced.
Eobard Thawne is a speedster from the 22nd century. He used to be a big admirer of The Flash. But when Thawne recreated Barry’s powers and was just about to reveal himself to the world but Flash showed up and saved the day instead. So a pissed off Eobard Thawne made a trip back in time to see what he did wrong only to find out that he was meant to be the reverse of everything Barry is and came up with the name Reverse Flash. After years of fighting Thawne learned Flash’s real identity Barry Allen, Eobard then came up with the idea to kill Barry as a kid to make sure that The Flash never existed. But future Flash followers Thawne and manage to save his child self. Thawne who was pissed that young Barry got away got a different idea what if Barry went though a tragedy so that he never becomes The Flash, so Thawne end up killing Nora Allen Barry’s mom and his father Henry Allen got blamed for her murder. Thawne then realized that he cannot return to his own time because his speed was almost gone. He realizes that the only way to get back to his own time was The Flash but his Flash was already erased from the timeline. The next 15 Barry came to live with Joe and Iris West and becomes a CSI at the Central City Police Department to find out who or what really killed his mother. As for what Thawne did, he changed his appearance and name to build STAR Labs and a Particle Accelerator to so that he could blow it up and create a lightning storm that on December 11th 2013 would hit Barry in his lab at the CCPD and get him in a coma for nine months and wake up with the incredible ability to move at superspeed. But of course Barry wasn’t the only one affected by the Accelerator explosion. Barry then spends the next year being trained by his new friends Cisco Ramone who would eventually become Vibe and Caitlin Snow who would eventually become Killer Frost. And unknowingly by all of them Barry was also trained by the man who killed his mother Harrison Wells aka Eobard Thawne aka The Reverse Flash. Barry eventually defeated Thawne and spends his next 9 years saving his city, the world and sometimes the multiverse, alongside his team, Green Arrow and his team, Supergirl and her team, The Legends, Batwoman, Superman, Black Lightning, and John Constantine. With Arrow ending with 8 seasons, Flash ended with 9 seasons, Supergirl ended with 6, Legends of Tomorrow got cancelled after 7, Constantine got cancelled after 1 season, Batwoman got cancelled after 3 seasons, Stargirl ended/ got cancelled after 3 seasons and Superman & Lois is about to drop its 4th and final season in 3 months.
Glad to finally revisit your content! Love your DC reactions! I agree with many recommendations throughout the comment sections, but I wanna throw one of my personal favorites: The Snyderverse. Man of Steel(My favorite movie of all time and a great introduction to Superman), Batman V. Superman Dawn of Justice Ultimate Edition(Specifically this version. The shorter theatrical cut removed a lot of important scenes leading to a worse story), Wonder Woman(Overrated but still a great movie in my opinion. Good intro to her character aswell), Suicide Squad(We never got the true version of this movie cuz WB sucks, but it's still fun enough and pays of in the next movie), and Zack Snyder's Justice League(A masterpiece that highlights Darkseid, Steppenwolf, Aquaman, Flash, and especially Cyborg. A fitting and emotional conclusion if you stop here and move on to other things afterwards!) Hopefully you'll tackle them, plus all the awesome stuff people suggested already!
8:30 this film will show you just how fkin broken aqua man is guy always gets slept on. Yes dc excels with their elseworld content (basically what if comic runs) Most of which either creating really interesting matchups like having different villains teaming with hero’s or having hero’s origins stories completely changed of have them go bad. They also had a talent where sometime they are able to write these elseworlds into cannon like the flashpoint paradox storyline or the crisis of 2 earths plot being able to pull these interesting mashups into the main cannon. If you stay of the dcau film track it will run you through a few of these else worlds even semi carrying over into the new future film run which canonically takes place after the dcau timeline. 2 of my favorite elseworlds are justice league gods and monsters and the dark knights metal/the Batman who laughs run. Gods and monsters is a full twist on the justice leagues origins. Superman is now the some of Zodd who was raised by Mexican immigrants, Batman is now Kirk" Langstrom better know in cannon as manbat who instead became a full fledged vampire due to his experiments. And wonderwoman had an arranged marriage with the son of darkseid . But it was a lie by her ppl to get darkseid guard down to kill his entire family. The problem was that they actually did fall in love but him alongside him whole family was slaughtered cause wonderwoman to resent her ppl. Needless to say their justice league Is a lot more brutal and does not care to kill anyone in their way. Dark knights of the otherhand is so much worse. Dark knight metal a comic run revolving around the dark multiverse dc world set to fall into chaos and be destroyed. It revolves around a group called the dark knights, a group of corrupt versions of Batman who were recruited and saved from their dying world by the bat god of the dark multiverse to destroy the main dc multiverse. You’ve got, The Red Death, an older batman who forcefully fused himself with flash to continue to fight crime The Drowned, a gender swapped dc universe where batgirl augmented her body to be able to fight and survive underwater after aqua girl sunk gotham The Dawnbreaker, a teenage Batman who was chosen by the green lantern ring, then proceeded to use his will to break and corrupt the ring kill the man who murdered his parent and becoming an antihero who kills criminals. The Murder Machine, after Alfred’s death batman made an ai version of him from cyborgs technology which eventually went crazy absorbing Bruce into it and killed all criminals The Merciless, batman whom was drove insane by the helmet of Ares killing his lover wonderwoman and taking over his world Devastator, a world where Superman went crazy killing his own wife Lois, in a last ditch effort bruce infected himself with the doomsday virus to defeat Superman. But the virus spread turning his entire world into doomsday monsters The grim knight, he’s not on the team much seeing that he is the most unoriginal but he’s just Batman with guns. Just think of the punisher. Finally we have the ringleader of this merry band The Batman who Laughs. This is a version of Batman who was finally broken by the joker. The joker captured Batman and hundreds of families lining them down crime alley and proceed to continuously reenact the murder of Bruce’s parents with them. Bruce finally lost in and broke Jokers neck which the joker planned for releasing a potent joker toxin into Batman. The children were also infected and put under care while Superman and Batman are discussing them Superman said that one of the kids tried to rip the throat out of a therapist causing Batman to smirk. Later Batman gathers the bat family telling them that he was infected and that they would have to stop him if he could find a cure, what they didn’t know was he was already too far gone pulling out machine guns and gunning down the bat family. He then proceed to wipe out the justice league taking the hundreds of kids that joker infected as his new robins and infecting Superman and his son with black kryponite cussing them to kill Lois then dying due to the side effects of the stone. After he destroyed his world he is recruited by the bat god to recruit a team to destroy the main multiverse. He even goes as far as infecting Shazam with the joker toxin making him into his superpowered Robin. If I remember correctly a good Batman had to team up with his joker to defeat him seeing that the Batman who laughs is the brilliant mind of Batman with the brutality and insanity of the joker Sorry for the Ted talk just dc puts so much damn info into what is essentially what if stories it’s hard to shorten it without leaving out a shit ton of info
Yes, but also no. He generated a tiny tornado in his hand. Since lightning is generated by the friction between air particles, him hitting it with the tiny tornado basically was a insanely precise storm cloud impacting it and electrocuting it at the same time.
Watching order of the DC Animated Universe Justice League: The Flashpoint paradox New 52 universe: Justice League:War Son of batman Justice League: Throne of Atlantis Batman vs. Robin Batman: Bad Blood Justice League vs. Teen Titans Justice League Dark Teen Titans: The Judas Contract Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay The Death of Superman Constantine: City of Demons Reign of the Supermen Batman: Hush Wonder Woman: Bloodlines Justice League Dark: Apokolips War New timeline universe: Nightwing and Robin Constantine: The House of Mystery
Those who are only mildly familiar with the DC universe will, very reasonable, tell you that Superman is the most powerful character. Those people do not know the Flash. He is about as broken as you can get. In a good way.
I did watch the ending scene. My reaction to it is in the middle of my rant in the end of the video, for those who want to see it.
Also I love how this film shows how powerful speedsters are. Barry Allen could literally destroy the entire world if he wanted. As they've shown us here. He's definitely top 3 superheros for me just from this film. He feels like such a down to earth superhero, who makes mistakes and is vulnerable. He's definitely relatable..
Anyways, thanks for watching.
Next in the timeline is Justice League War
If you want to see Flashs dad hes in The Flash movie. As a die hard DC fan its a solid 8/10 movie. Don’t believe the critics, you be your own judge. Plus Michael Keatons Batman is in the movie so thats epic. Its the same plot as Flashpoint Paradox, so no surprises except for Barrys dad’s canon backstory
Justice League Flashpoint Paradox started the DCAMU( DC Animated Movies Universe) and ended with Justice League Dark Apokolypes War. Next movie after Flashpoint Paradox is Justice League War check it out, it's awesome.
Skip the Live Action Flashpoint film it is not good.
@@kermitgotthesickkicks4265 How much you want to bet he will give it a 7/10 or over? Its easy to say something is bad. But at least give constructive criticism. Im mot saying its the best movie but besides some CGI the story was pretty solid. And thats what matters most is the backstory. Especially the cameos not trying to spoil it, but the earths hit right in the feels. Since i grew up with late 80s and 90s DC
You have no idea how petty Eobard Thawne/Reverse Flash is. He may be one of the biggest haters in fiction.
"IT WAS ME BARRY" meme is embodiment of him XD
This man is sitting comfortably on the mount Rushmore of haters in fiction, the only other one that comes close to to be as petty as him is Dio from Jojo's bizarre adventure 😂😂😂
Dio brando
@@Her0the_1dio is based on him
13:16
"He got his mom back, but he lost his girl"
Perfect summary of the most hated Spider-Man comic of all time.
Sounds like a country song.
"Whoa, this guy is like an Anti-Flash"
You could say... he's the REVERSE!👀
Flash's dad doesn't show up in this movie. But his dad was framed for the murder of barrys mom and sent to prison. It inspired Barry to become a forensic scientist in homicide to solve the murder!
It didn’t technically inspire him to do that. Even before Eobard went back and changed history, Barry still became a forensic scientist and still became a hero when he got his powers.
You know sometimes not coming back with the milk is a good thing.
Reverse flash is a petty mf. Some things he has done are go back in time and
-Push flash down a flight of stairs
-Making him fuck up during a baseball match
-Make him drop his books and losing his homework
-Leave his door open so his dog would run out and get run over by a car
-Remove his childhood best friend from the timeline so Barry would spend it alone
And in live action Eobard literally made himself The Flash and turned Barry’s own team against him.
The Rouge’s have rules: No killing women and children, no drugs and never ever kill a speedster.
So they are sexists and ageist too🤣
So they are s exists and ageists too 😂😂
@@devilaasura3827 no? they know if they break those rules, itll just get someone way worse than flash on their backs. theyre smart villains who know not to press their luck
@@starlepus9437yeah and what’s way worse then the flash: Superman and Wonder Woman.
@@starlepus9437Plus they have respect for both The Flash(Wally or Barry) and understand their just doing their jobs
All of The Flash's most popular villains (Who don't have super speed, and are not Gorillas) are called "The Rouges". Trust me, when you get to know them better you'll love them.
They're pretty likable bad guys xD
"Make Batman cry". An impossible task, but Flash did it!
In the comics, Barry's mother was murdered by Thawne and his father got framed for it
Thawne is an obsessed Flash fan from the 25th century who later become his greatest enemy
Him killing Barry's mother was retconed in 2009. I'm so glad the time of Geoff Johns constantly retconing everything in the past.
@@The_Phantasm I usually never like retcons. It just makes things unnecessarily confusing. Dc and Marvel are kings of confusing comic book readers.
There's already a bunch of comments talking about it, but this is important.
This movie is the beginning of the DCAMU (DC Animated MOVIE Universe), which takes heavy influence from the controversial "New 52" DC comics reboot.
Don't get it confused with the DCAU (DC Animated Universe) The beloved interconnected universe of shows and movies.
I just found out there was a series of comic that tells what happened after dcau ended. What batman did in those comics really disgust me. No wonder nightwing never show up in the batman beyond series as he hated bruce.
@@hoyinleung7668 yeah they kinda character assassinated him in some of the DCAU comics. Especially anything to do with Bruce x Barbara aka the worst ship in DC
The group of villains at the beginning are called The Rogues. They're pretty fun characters. They treat villainy like its blue-collar work. They also have a fun frenemy relationship with flash. Often teaming up with flash to defeat a more powerful villain.
Just so you know, Eobard Thawne who is the Reverse Flash/Professor Zoom (he's gone by both names) was the one who killed Barry's mother.
You should definitely watch this whole universe, the order is
1. Flaspoint paradox
2. Justice League war
3. Son of batman
4. Justice League throne of atlantis
5. Batman vs Robin
6. Batman Bad Blood
7. Justice League vs Teen Titans
8. Justice League Dark
9. Teen Titans The Judas Contract
10. Suicide Squad Hell To Pay
11. The Death of superman
12. Constantine city of demons
13. Reign of the supermen
14. Batman Hush
15: Wonder Woman Bloodlines
16. Justice League Dark Apokolips War
HOLY SHEEsh
rhx 4 recomendation bro
I helluve love DC universe )
House of mystery after
I don’t blame you for thinking the villians are a little lame at a glance but mirror guy depending on how many of his weapons he got he’s REALLLY dangerous. Got his own lil mirror dimension n allat lol
(At 16:08) No, that's his racist little half brother Orm or his villain name, "Ocean Master". The two kids behind Ocean Master are Aquaman's apprentices that go by Aqualad (Yes, one is black and one is white).
The "white" Aqualad in blue is Garth.
The "black" Aqualad in red is Kaldur'ahm.
Kaldur'ahm is also Black Manta's son.
Garth is also one of the 4 founders of the Teen Titans.
When it comes to the Lanterns there are different colors each representing something different: Red:Anger,Yellow: Fear, Green:Willpower, Orange: Greed, Indigo: Compassion, Blue:Hope,Pink:Love,White:Life,Black:Death. They also each have a different oath.
People really forget that Aquaman is a big part of the Justice League for a reason, bro is super strong, is able to heal and gets stronger with liquid, like the blood from the cerberus that he came out of, and he has power over, I'm not a 100% on this one, any creature that is considered aquatic or at least from the ocean, like those microbes for example, with the added plus that because he's king of Atlantis he's able to use a magic trident and has the atlantean army backing him that has some advanced atlantean tech and a whole lot of magic, he's an actual menace, as long as there's liquid around of course, so he mostly stays out of fighting the more flight required or space battles, which are the more popular Justice League fights but tbh, when you live on a place where ocean covers most of the planet you're probably better off capitalizing on how much of a buff it is to anyway.
based
just one of cool sigmas B-)
Plus everu member of the Justice Keague - helluva powerfull and cool hero
and there are a lot of them
Thawn was a fanboy of Flash from the future, his admiration was so great that he even underwent surgery to look like Barry Allen and even replicated Flash's accident on himself, later he would obtain the "Cosmic Treadmill" an artifact that Flash used to travel in time or other universes in a controlled manner. He traveled to Flash's time but discovered that he himself would become "Professor Zoom" AKA Reverse Flash, this made him angry with Flash and he swore to ruin his life every chance he could.
Barry's one of 3 Flashes.
The first is Jay Garrick, he was the OG and ran from the 30's-70's along with the OG Justice League (Justice Society/Guild at the time), Barry Allen is the 2nd (And unfortunately current) and had his run from the 70's-90's, and finally there's Wally West who was Barry's sidekick before getting promoted and was the main from the 90's-mid 10's.
But there's a bunch of drama there. Basically the exec in charge of the Arrowverse shows hated Wally and loved Barry, so he made him the MC of The Flash show, which got super popular, leading to DC to bring Barry back from the dead and making him the lead Flash while Wally got demoted to a backup/deuteragonist despite being the headliner for over 20 years.
Actually, Barry Allen Flash first appeared in 1956.
thawne is basically on par of joker in terms of psycotic and being a great villian
They later reconed the Flashpoint timeline into an alternate universe. that’s why Flashpoint Batman comes back in later comics.
The alternate version of Batman where his father becomes Batman and uses guns and is an alcoholic really shows just how insanely amazing Bruce as Batman is. All the pain, and darkness and he never breaks. He doesn't kill, he doesn't succumb to substance addiction. Really shows that there can only ever be one true Batman, and that's Bruce.
If you want to actually get into reading comics, what you need to find out is what do you value the most.
1. Do you just love one character? Look up that characters best stories.
2. Do you like a certain writer's style? Find out what else they've written.
3. Is everything for you about the art style? (I personally will read anything that Alex Ross did the artwork for.)
4. For a lot of people it's just about genre. Certain superheroes typically stick to certain genres. ("Team books" like Justice League, Teen Titans, X-Men, or Avengers are a special genre of their own. That's my preference)
You will enjoy the DCAMU and the development shown through the 16 films in the continuity.
I know this movie is overwhelming and not explaining much, so here's bit of explaination on characters:
- Barry Allen/The Flash. Was a normal kid until he found out his mom was killed and police putting a charge on his father Henry Allen. Determined to free his dad from the prison, he decided to solve the mysteey of that night by becoming a forensic scientist. Until one day he was near shelf of chemicals when the lightning struct him. He later obtained the Speedforce, a cosmic energy existing beyond space and time. Along with speed he obtained fast regeneration, metabolism and brain processing.
- Reverse Flash/Professor Zoom. Real name Eobard Thawne. Was born in far future (23 century I belive) and was a big fan of the Barry Allen's Flash to the point he recreated the event that gave the powers. He came back in time to become a hero along with the Flash, but he was creating more chaos than help to the point that Flash had to stop him. Now, all you gotta know about Thawne that he's the pittiest man in universe. After being stopped by Barry, he started to hate him, so he came back in time again and was actually the one that killed Barry's mom. But after that, he could not return back into his age. He became a paradox and was forced to stay in 21st century, which he hated a lot due to how underdeveloped it is. But he then decided to keep torturing Barry by trying as hard as possible to make his life miserable.
The Rogues - the group of Flash enemies that collectively go against the Flash. The members change time to time, but it mostly contains Captain Cold, Captain Boomerang and Mirror Master. But their main train is that they vowed to not kill while doing crimes, because they know that if Flash captures them, they are going to trial and it's better to be trialed for robberry than for murder. But lately Boomerang in DC media is the exception of that rule and he's quite unhinged overall.
Now, I'm not a super expert on the Flash lore, so some slight fact I misremembered or didn't mentioned, like the fact that Thawne uses Negative Speedforce instead of usual one. But how he got it - I don't remember, all I know that it is artificial.
Also, there's different people who act as the Flash. Like Jay Garrick (in comics he was the first ever Flash until Barry was created as the character) and Wally West (who is mostly known to be The Kid Flash as part of the Teen Titans team). And he's brother of Iris West, Barry's wife.
So yeah, here's "entry level" info dump on The Flash.
The demon Etrigan has a long history. Like thousands of years lol. It's pretty good.
In comics Barrys mother was un alive and the dad got blamed sent to prison for first degree in the last few iterations of the origin it was reverse flash who was the culprit . The girl next to him was his girlfriend Iris West and aunt of sidekick Wally West Barrys successor.
Reverse Flash is basically an obsessive petty psycho fanboy he’s from the future and worked in the Flash museum idolized him to where he decided to recreate and infuse himself with the powers he got the same flash powers but but working from a negative version of the speed force the extra dimensional force of kinetic energy that gives flashes there powers. However he had the benefit of moving through time with his speed so he traveled back git desilusión and angry with Barry seeing he was a big part of his life discovered he was gonna be his archenemy and decided to embrace it doing all he could with his speed and time travel powers to make Barrys life as miserable as possible since childhood out of petty revenge making sure he was relevant to him as his greatest enemy.
DC animated movies always hit
They haven't for years.
@@The_Phantasm true
@@The_PhantasmJustice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths animated movie was pretty good.
They haven't been good since under the red hood
That's actually just false@@rolandspears4595
Aquaman is probably the only league member who can match Diana and Superman in strength. I don't say that to say he is as strong as them but nearly. So many people do not realize how much of a powerhouse he is
plus he is ocean man and water everYwhere on this freakin Planet lol
I always knew that he is cool dude
and there so many League of Justice members
Hal, Superman, Batman, Cyborg, Wonderwoman, Flash, Martian ManHunter - just top of iceberg
true bros and heroes
@@gregdrowned9873 ya absolutely. I always hated when the Jason MaMoa aquaman came out and everyone was like "finally they made aquaman cool" and it's like did none of you grow up with the justice league or comic books at all? The aquaman from the justice league cartoon was KING in every aspect of the word and carried himself as such. Gave no sh*ts for anyone. One scene I remember is when Cadmus tried to take a cloned superhero from the justice leagues custody and superman and aquaman were the two to get between longshadow and the cadmus soldiers as a way of saying these are the two power houses of the JL and you cannot fight them.
Honestly Batman The Brave and The Bold is what made aquaman cool to me nothing else.
@@kermitgotthesickkicks4265 to each their own. I never watched it. Found it to be too silver age for me. Too silly. Justice league will always be goated
@@illam9500 I love Silver Age stuff it's great it's got modern adaption with Silver Age camp. It's just fun.
Blaze, I'll be honest, even the lamest version of Aquaman could kick your ass.
xD
Wonder is insanely powerful in comics.. and she is highly skilled too ..
I 100% think you should watch young justice! Its so good and has a lot of the hero's of dc (practically all of them)
- Flash Villains: Top, Mirror Master, Heatwave, Captain Cold, Captain Boomerang, Gorilla Grodd and Reverse-Flash (Eobard Thawne)
Comic pop is a great channel to watch individual story lines from comics explained in like a conversational setting. The best way to get into comics in my experience is to pick up a few random single issues from a few different series and stick with what grabs you. Get a mix of marvel and dc. Brand loyalty is for chumps. The spice of life is variety after all.
To clarify, the character Zoom or Reverse Flash is known as one of the most vengeful villains in history, causing misfortune in Barry's life from a young age. Eobard Thawne, the man beneath the mask, hailed from the 25th century and had an intense fixation on Barry Allen, the Flash. Thawne underwent a procedure to resemble Barry and replicated the accident that granted Barry super speed, gaining powers of his own. However, Thawne uncovered a grim truth: he was fated to become Barry's archenemy, the Reverse Flash. This realization drove him to insanity, prompting him to travel back in time to meet his idol. Yet, his erratic behavior and foreknowledge of events tipped Barry off to his true intentions. Thawne's animosity towards Barry intensified, leading him to transform into the Reverse-Flash and using his speed and future knowledge to torment Barry and those close to him.
IT WAS ME BARRY
you should watch batman: assault on arkham. it's a good suicide squad movie that is cannon to the rocksteady batman: arkham games
Finally, the DCAU starting from this flashpoint movie are all must see. If you can watch them in order, that'd be great too. I'm sure they'll do well for the channel in general. They're all bangers
I'm glad somebody likes those movies. I didn't enjoy any of the movies that are inspired by "The New 52"
This is Not called the DCAU (DC Animated Universe) That is the universe that starts with Batman The Animated Series and ends with Justice League Unlimited. This boring and underwhelming universe is called the DCAMU (DC Animated Movie Universe).
This is the DCAMU not the DCAU bro. DCAMU is based off the new 52.
The Flash is one of my favorite heroes! There's been a few heroes to carry the mantle of Flash. Barry Allen and Wally West are my favorites. There's also the golden age Flash Jay Garrick who is pretty great.
Jay Garrick deserves all the respect.
He sure does!
Flashpoint Joker/Martha Wayne accidentally killed herself when she found out that her son would become the Batman, she had a mental meltdown and ran away without thinking then fell down to her death in the Batcave
Eobard Thawne when he was young was called professor zoom and worked at the flash museum doing tours and fanboying hardcore over Barry Allen. He learned all about things like the speed force and other speedsters through our history. Then, he decided to try a little cosplay and utilized different time travel methods to visit his hero. But when he set foot in nearish out time he found a world where Barry sacrificed himself to save the universe. He did however meet Barry and Iris' nephew Wally West, the modern flash. The cosplay worked a little too well and he pretended he was Barry, to impart wisdom to flash's protege. But then he learned his history, that the world only new him as a man called the reverse flash. This sent him back to his home time only to find now he wasn't a professional author of many histories of the flash, he was a janitor at the flash museum in this time. He ran back to Barry's younger flash and embraced the villain to make a better flash, a better him. Twisted by things like the negative speed force, greed, and delusional aspirations he spend his time fucking over Barry Wally Jay and even Barry's grand kids. In a move that upset the balance of space and time, he also murdered Barry's mother.
"Dead grandma" Mirror master
DARK KNIGHT RETURNS!
DC is goated. I look forward to your New 52 Animated Universe reactions. Great reaction! Oh and Barry’s father is in prison. He was framed for Barry’s moms murder
I don't dislike Barry Allen as a character but he has never been my favourite Flash and one of my least favourite things about him is that since his resurrection in the 2000s (before that he had been gone for about 25 years) they implemented a lot of elements from Wally West (Barry's nephew who was his sidekick Kid Flash and became Flash after Barry died in the comics) and pretended like it was Barry's. The speed force wasn't introduced in the comics untill the 90's when Wally was the Flash and believe me Wally West is the GREATEST Flash. Thankfully Wally is again the currently the mainline Flash in the comics.
You’re one of my favorites to watch on RUclips, I’m hoping to start making videos this year.
The beginning of the movie when his mom tells him about having strength courage and wisdom is actually the "serenity prayer" used in Alcoholics/narcotics/etc. Anonymous. I go to a few meetings a week so I hear it all the time.
This and Under the Red Hood are my 2 favorite DC movies
Loved watching you play the Arkham games a few months back, glad o found this reaction channel excited to see your thoughts and reactions
I HIGHLY recommend you check out the rest of the animated universe. The universe they build up and the stories they tell are amazing (and in the case of a couple of movies, better than the source material). It'll make you fall in love with the DC Universe for sure
Lets go im so glad your starting the DCAMU it has some flaws but it also has really stromg moments Im particularly looking forward to some specific reactions cant wait
Ok crazy thing about thawne is if I remember correctly he is immortal because he’s from the future way into the future and he got his powers by replicating the same thing that happened to the flash because he wanted to be him he ended up being the opposite of the flash aka reverse flash so thawne can’t kill Barry otherwise he wouldn’t have got his super powers so every reverse flash regardless if he dies or not will just come back
I really hope you continue to watch the rest of the movies in this series! They are so good!
Of course! Son of Batman reaction should be up in a day or 2
I had no idea that you're 30. You look really good (not that 30 is old or anything). I'll be 26 in a month, and I thought you were younger than me.
Aww thank you
@@blaze3309 You're welcome! I'm also really enjoying watching your journey so far. I just watched your history of Batman video, you're Flashpoint video, and your JL War video back to back. They're all really good.
If you're looks for a good standalone animated Superman movie. I highly recommend Superman vs The Elite, it's peak Supes.
DC animated movies were the best and they’ve slowly dwindled over time after this movie.
Reverse-Flash, also known as Eobard Thawne, gained his powers by replicating the Flash's Speed Force accident in the 25th century. A scientist and Flash fanatic, Thawne recreated the conditions to become a speedster himself. His obsession turned to hatred, leading him to use his speed to become the Flash's archenemy.
Jumping into a Justice League movie can be a little overwhelming. If you ever wanted to get aclaimated to all the characters individually I recommend:
Superman vs The Elite
All-Star Superman
Green Lantern First Flight
Wonder Woman 2007
Wonder Woman Bloodlines
Superman/Shazam
For other fun JL stories I recommend:
The New Frontier
Crisis on Two Earths
Superman/Batman Public Enemies
You should check out All-Star Superman. Another direct adaptation to a comic book and James Gunn has said the new Superman movie will be heavily influenced by that comic.
9:23 he basically threw air at him the flash is seen using his speed to manipulate the air around him like if he spins his arm's fast enough he can cause tornadoes.
3:58 his dad got blamed for his mother's death hence why the flash because a detective to find find the really killer and to eventually find evidence to set his father free.
Comic books have collected books just like manga does. They're not all in order but certain stories and runs are. You don't have to buy single issues. I'm not sure if you were aware of that or not but most people still seem to assume that.
Thawne aka Zoom is the one who killed Barry’s mom in comics. He’s responsible for every bad thing that happened to Barry. He was originally Barry’s fan in the future who replicated his powers to be the new Flash, but went insane when he learned that history dictated he’s actually Barry’s archenemy, believing that Barry rejected him entirely.
The fact is that Reverse Flash tried to kill Barry in his childhood, but realized it would erased him. Technically, he can't kill Barry until he gets famous. Because, he was fan of him in the 25th century. Thats why, Reverse Flash messed with Barry's childhood. He erased his best friend from school and killed her mother. And some other stuff.
I recommend Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It's WAY better than it should be
HIGHLY recommend you check out the shows The dark knight returns part 1 and 2, they explore a story of batman having to come back out of retirement, he's now in his 50s and the story of the batman has been reduced to no more than a local legend, real struggle, dark and interesting story with good development and really nice resolution, you'll love it!
14:15 steve trover is actually wonder womans love intrest
Well if you're interested in aquaman you should watch his 2 dceu movies. And if you're interested in Hal Jordan green lantern you should watch the animated movie : Green lantern first flight
Good work blaze..😌♥
Fun fact: Cyborg in this movie was voiced by Michael B JORDAN.
9:24 The Flash can throw lightning.
When u have time read the Flashpoint Beyond. Thomas Wayne is back as Flashpoint universe Batman and he don't know why. The story continues and some of the characters including new ones are introduced.
You should watch the 2 aquaman movies bro there do good and visually amazing.
Batman Assault on Arkham is an animation u should watch bro.
Eobard Thawne is a speedster from the 22nd century. He used to be a big admirer of The Flash. But when Thawne recreated Barry’s powers and was just about to reveal himself to the world but Flash showed up and saved the day instead. So a pissed off Eobard Thawne made a trip back in time to see what he did wrong only to find out that he was meant to be the reverse of everything Barry is and came up with the name Reverse Flash. After years of fighting Thawne learned Flash’s real identity Barry Allen, Eobard then came up with the idea to kill Barry as a kid to make sure that The Flash never existed. But future Flash followers Thawne and manage to save his child self. Thawne who was pissed that young Barry got away got a different idea what if Barry went though a tragedy so that he never becomes The Flash, so Thawne end up killing Nora Allen Barry’s mom and his father Henry Allen got blamed for her murder. Thawne then realized that he cannot return to his own time because his speed was almost gone. He realizes that the only way to get back to his own time was The Flash but his Flash was already erased from the timeline. The next 15 Barry came to live with Joe and Iris West and becomes a CSI at the Central City Police Department to find out who or what really killed his mother. As for what Thawne did, he changed his appearance and name to build STAR Labs and a Particle Accelerator to so that he could blow it up and create a lightning storm that on December 11th 2013 would hit Barry in his lab at the CCPD and get him in a coma for nine months and wake up with the incredible ability to move at superspeed. But of course Barry wasn’t the only one affected by the Accelerator explosion. Barry then spends the next year being trained by his new friends Cisco Ramone who would eventually become Vibe and Caitlin Snow who would eventually become Killer Frost. And unknowingly by all of them Barry was also trained by the man who killed his mother Harrison Wells aka Eobard Thawne aka The Reverse Flash. Barry eventually defeated Thawne and spends his next 9 years saving his city, the world and sometimes the multiverse, alongside his team, Green Arrow and his team, Supergirl and her team, The Legends, Batwoman, Superman, Black Lightning, and John Constantine. With Arrow ending with 8 seasons, Flash ended with 9 seasons, Supergirl ended with 6, Legends of Tomorrow got cancelled after 7, Constantine got cancelled after 1 season, Batwoman got cancelled after 3 seasons, Stargirl ended/ got cancelled after 3 seasons and Superman & Lois is about to drop its 4th and final season in 3 months.
Glad to finally revisit your content! Love your DC reactions!
I agree with many recommendations throughout the comment sections, but I wanna throw one of my personal favorites: The Snyderverse.
Man of Steel(My favorite movie of all time and a great introduction to Superman), Batman V. Superman Dawn of Justice Ultimate Edition(Specifically this version. The shorter theatrical cut removed a lot of important scenes leading to a worse story), Wonder Woman(Overrated but still a great movie in my opinion. Good intro to her character aswell), Suicide Squad(We never got the true version of this movie cuz WB sucks, but it's still fun enough and pays of in the next movie), and Zack Snyder's Justice League(A masterpiece that highlights Darkseid, Steppenwolf, Aquaman, Flash, and especially Cyborg. A fitting and emotional conclusion if you stop here and move on to other things afterwards!)
Hopefully you'll tackle them, plus all the awesome stuff people suggested already!
16:55, more like Mr. Crisp.
Run Barry Run !!!
8:30 this film will show you just how fkin broken aqua man is guy always gets slept on.
Yes dc excels with their elseworld content (basically what if comic runs)
Most of which either creating really interesting matchups like having different villains teaming with hero’s or having hero’s origins stories completely changed of have them go bad.
They also had a talent where sometime they are able to write these elseworlds into cannon like the flashpoint paradox storyline or the crisis of 2 earths plot being able to pull these interesting mashups into the main cannon.
If you stay of the dcau film track it will run you through a few of these else worlds even semi carrying over into the new future film run which canonically takes place after the dcau timeline.
2 of my favorite elseworlds are justice league gods and monsters and the dark knights metal/the Batman who laughs run.
Gods and monsters is a full twist on the justice leagues origins. Superman is now the some of Zodd who was raised by Mexican immigrants, Batman is now Kirk" Langstrom better know in cannon as manbat who instead became a full fledged vampire due to his experiments. And wonderwoman had an arranged marriage with the son of darkseid . But it was a lie by her ppl to get darkseid guard down to kill his entire family. The problem was that they actually did fall in love but him alongside him whole family was slaughtered cause wonderwoman to resent her ppl.
Needless to say their justice league Is a lot more brutal and does not care to kill anyone in their way.
Dark knights of the otherhand is so much worse. Dark knight metal a comic run revolving around the dark multiverse dc world set to fall into chaos and be destroyed. It revolves around a group called the dark knights, a group of corrupt versions of Batman who were recruited and saved from their dying world by the bat god of the dark multiverse to destroy the main dc multiverse.
You’ve got,
The Red Death, an older batman who forcefully fused himself with flash to continue to fight crime
The Drowned, a gender swapped dc universe where batgirl augmented her body to be able to fight and survive underwater after aqua girl sunk gotham
The Dawnbreaker, a teenage Batman who was chosen by the green lantern ring, then proceeded to use his will to break and corrupt the ring kill the man who murdered his parent and becoming an antihero who kills criminals.
The Murder Machine, after Alfred’s death batman made an ai version of him from cyborgs technology which eventually went crazy absorbing Bruce into it and killed all criminals
The Merciless, batman whom was drove insane by the helmet of Ares killing his lover wonderwoman and taking over his world
Devastator, a world where Superman went crazy killing his own wife Lois, in a last ditch effort bruce infected himself with the doomsday virus to defeat Superman. But the virus spread turning his entire world into doomsday monsters
The grim knight, he’s not on the team much seeing that he is the most unoriginal but he’s just Batman with guns. Just think of the punisher.
Finally we have the ringleader of this merry band
The Batman who Laughs.
This is a version of Batman who was finally broken by the joker. The joker captured Batman and hundreds of families lining them down crime alley and proceed to continuously reenact the murder of Bruce’s parents with them.
Bruce finally lost in and broke Jokers neck which the joker planned for releasing a potent joker toxin into Batman.
The children were also infected and put under care while Superman and Batman are discussing them Superman said that one of the kids tried to rip the throat out of a therapist causing Batman to smirk.
Later Batman gathers the bat family telling them that he was infected and that they would have to stop him if he could find a cure, what they didn’t know was he was already too far gone pulling out machine guns and gunning down the bat family.
He then proceed to wipe out the justice league taking the hundreds of kids that joker infected as his new robins and infecting Superman and his son with black kryponite cussing them to kill Lois then dying due to the side effects of the stone.
After he destroyed his world he is recruited by the bat god to recruit a team to destroy the main multiverse.
He even goes as far as infecting Shazam with the joker toxin making him into his superpowered Robin.
If I remember correctly a good Batman had to team up with his joker to defeat him seeing that the Batman who laughs is the brilliant mind of Batman with the brutality and insanity of the joker
Sorry for the Ted talk just dc puts so much damn info into what is essentially what if stories it’s hard to shorten it without leaving out a shit ton of info
You should check out Justice league crisis on two earths, and Justice league doom
Wonder Woman became Anakin for a second there 😂
Hell yeah! Ain’t even started and I know a banger when I see one!
Hopefully you get to the original Justice League show at some point! One of the best DC shows ever made
Dope channel dude
Superman can bench press the Moon with his neck, damn!
The thing that you are talking about in the beginning with the comics online is DC Universe Infinite.
If you want to get started into Superman, I suggest watching All-Star Supeman, that film just sparks hope!
It was me barry
This is a very good adaptation of the comic.
React to the Dark Knight Returns as well. Another great adaptation of a graphic novel.
You should watch My Adventures with Superman. It came out last year and is very influenced by anime. I feel like the show is right up your alley.
good movie, many consider it even better than the comic, I also recommend "Batman/Superman: Public Enemies" and "All-Star Superman"
Gal Gadot is actually a very lore accurate Wonder Woman if you take into account the child slaughter from this movie
28:12 Look that part is very complicated. Just watch the video about Reverse Flash from Comicstorian.
5:50 Their the rogues some of Barry's none speedster villains their pretty damn cool once you get to know em.
9:20 He generated electricity and threw it at the bomb.
Yes, but also no. He generated a tiny tornado in his hand. Since lightning is generated by the friction between air particles, him hitting it with the tiny tornado basically was a insanely precise storm cloud impacting it and electrocuting it at the same time.
Yeah everything about the flash is sped up. excluding aging of course. Bro needs to refuel on snacks constantly.
Yeah DCAU also free comic book day is coming soon.
Watching order of the DC Animated Universe

I have a subscription to DC Infinite, but I still collect physical copies. I’m happy to give recommendations of story lines to check out if you want.
Those who are only mildly familiar with the DC universe will, very reasonable, tell you that Superman is the most powerful character. Those people do not know the Flash. He is about as broken as you can get. In a good way.
