i then started thinking about that more and there is no way that alt-barry could know the connection with Louis.

I know it is hard to come up with SFX showing speed but I felt the scenes of running really fast were a cross for the Flash cw series and taking from x-men. Specifically the opening save at the hospital.

Stunned that they actually put the baby save scene in the movie that's supposed to reset the DCU. Fucking awful.

I get they were going for the Quicksilver kitchen scene vibe but they should have just cut it from the movie.

I too will miss Bat-fleck. His size made him the most menacing version of Batman.

Sasha Calle. Dayum. We need more of her.

Yes, many of the effects were shit, but i just rolled with it.

Loved seeing Keaton kickin ass again.

Barry and his mom....felt that.

And the post credit: As far as I know, he's the only one stayin in the new DCU, so, just a nod to that.

An hour left of this now. While multiverse plotlines are not my favorite, I think this movie has been a lot of fun so far. Great seeing Keaton back as Batman.

there was a better movie until Gunn kinda fucked it up at the end almost on purpose...specially at the ending.
Spoiler: show
the inclusion of Clooney doesnt make sense. its just a wink and a way to say, this whole thing is over. I kinda feel bad for Wan and Momoa with the new movie coming

I did become a bit much at the end, and the Clooney scene was just bleh. I agree. Yet, overall it was a decent movie. Had a good time watching it.

Better than I was lead to believe, but the babies and the Chromosphere are so bad that DC should stop making movies AND comics.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
