The Flash - July 2022

The first Thor was pretty good, people seem to forget that.

Ragnarok was silly and mostly forgettable. I'm not a huge Thor fan so seeing him silly is fine with me. But as a film, as a story, it was just janky all over. Cartoon comes to mind; and you know how I feel about those.

I didn't bother to see Thor 4 so I can't speak on it.

I liked the first Thor. Dark World came out and it caught me off guard, the MCU is capable of making something I hate. They upped that hate with Ragnarok, truly awful. The trailers for Love and Thunder looked like Ragnarok but worse so I never bothered with it. The huge success of the MCU meant they could release some very poor movies but keep on rolling. It's only now it's becoming a problem.

That's a good snapshot of where I believe they're trying to take DC now. Away from the bleak and angst ridden Snyderverse to, I guess Gunnville.

Wait, is that still actually from the movie? I take it Batman helps Flash #2 piece together his suit? That looks utterly ridiculous, so probably the next HT release. I'm in!

That flash 2 suit is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen .

Well tbh I forgot most of this crap after seeing the movie.

So Superman doesn’t exist in the Keaton verse huh? Bummer . Thought donner Superman and him were in the same universe

Metropolis gets a mention in Batman Forever which I always placed in the Burtonverse cos it was originally intended as a Burton movie (plus it has the same Alfred and Gordon).

But lately I've discovered people keep the Burtonverse and Schumacherverse separate.

I could never really accept they were the same universe. Separating them fits better with me.

Tbf Craigs Bond kept the same M and that was a different interpretation.

Same. I’m not sure which movie this clip is from.

What in the name of ever-loving ****????

This is real? This is in the movie? She ******* "Force teleports" an object across time and space??

So glad I never actually watched this pile of horse droppings. That's definitely exponentially stupider than Flash wearing the Batman Returns armor.

What if he grabbed the laser part lol

So is this, or Leia’s space Mary Poppins, more ridiculous?

Good god. An entire trilogy based on space Mary Poppins would be less ridiculous than this movie just deciding "Well....shoot man....if you have the Force, you can just teleport stuff. Billions and billions of light years across the vast universe? No problem! Just close your eyes and make a grunty face and boom! Instantaneous teleportation. Why didn't we think of that before? Just teleport a stapler directly into Vader's brain...or....teleport C-3PO right into the exhaust port of the Death Star VI....hell, teleport yourself! No more need for spaceships! Man, this just opens up a whole new world of possibilities!"

Space Mary Poppins shouldn't have even existed based on this new logic. The second the bridge was hit, she could have teleported herself to the beach on Space Miami that Andor was banging that broad on.

Disney Star Wars is gonna give me an aneurysm. Make it stop.

Teleporting yourself makes you die though... so it could be considered the "Holdo maneuver" of Force abilities.

As did I. I've still only seen TROS once. I urge Otomofan to keep up the good work of never watching it at all.

In the running for the stupidest Star Wars thing ever...

WTF is that? Is that space horses filing out of a cargo carrier to run on the surface of a Star Destroyer....IN SPACE?

Don't worry a-dev, I will never, ever watch this movie. Just seeing clips on youtube and hearing descriptions has already dropped me a few dozen IQ points.

Oh boy.... Is that really from the movie? The Space horse scene I've read about??

I've never soon TROS either, and hopefully never will.

It took me waaaaaaay too long to get over TLJ and to forget that monstrosity SW destroying movie ever happened. Not about to do that again by watching TROS. I've also avoided D+ Kenobi for the same reason. I screen everything in advance from now on...

Yes, because after 40 of Star Wars, we all know that the universe has been set up to expect a charging cavalry of 'horses' onboard an Imperial Cruiser.
