My wife and I watch THE FLASH for the FIRST time || Movie Reaction 

Love how Holden does like the Leonardo Decaprio meme where he points when Michael Keaton said the “you wanna get nuts, let’s get nuts” line.😂

Jen's face during the babies falling scene is peak mother-face lmao.

This film is also the final time we get to see Batfleck, as production for Joss Whedon's Justice League drove him to drink heavily, as he said in interviews that "he didn't have a fun experience, it was very depressing", and that his alcoholism, his stints in rehab, and his divorce from Jennifer Garner took it's toll.

The director claimed the CGI was that bad as a stylistic choice. One of the VFX artists said something along the lines of “If it looks like it was done in a week, it was.” Other VFX artists confirmed they were asked to do scenes from scratch a couple weeks before release. Another example and possibly the worst example of underpaid and overworked VFX artists who must’ve been working 20 hours a day for a couple weeks straight to get something release ready.

I actually really enjoyed this one. Sure some of the CGI isn’t the best, but the only time it really took me out of the movie was with the CGI babies in the beginning. I thought this was pretty good and despite Ezra Miller’s schemes, he still played a pretty damn good Barry Allen. Some of the ending cameos I didn’t think were needed, but it was cool to see some classic characters again.

Everyone watched this movie for Batman and all the other cameos. As cool as those were, I honestly found the storyline between Barry and his mother to be the far more interesting part of the film

In the original cut, Michael Keaton was supposed to show up again in the end but after Barry went back to his apartment, Ben Affleck was trying to reach out to Barry through a transmission and asking him "What did you do?!"

Fun fact: the reason ezra runs like he’s ice skating is because if he were running normally he’d destroy everything in his path, in one on of the scenes where u see him save that women, before, he barely slid on the ground and it destroyed the ground, he has to run like that, also the lightning passing through him he’s gotta let it flow a certain way somehow 😂

"They couldn't put a real baby in the microwave" might be my new favourite out of context quote.

Apparently you can see Doomsday on one of the rings on the green planet from Nic Cages Superman. Also there were plans to have more cameos like Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman and Grant's Flash, but for some reason they cut it. When it comes to the inevitable intersection, the CW TV show Legends of Tomorrow explain it a lot better, I believe during it's final season. Season 7 episode 10.

Personally I don't think the movie is as bad as people say it is but I can't lie that all the bad promo around it with Ezra Miller's criminal activities, the movie itself being in production hell for a while, the whole DCU reboot, the bad CGI and the potential the movie could have had overall definitely gives the movie a bad image

from what i understand there were 3 different post credit scenes one with supergirl and keatons batman, superman and afflecks batman, and then the one with clooney. i think the one with clooney was shot after the ezra drama as a joke to have him in the batnips universe

If you guys wanna see what a good Batman movie with Ben Affleck would’ve been like, react to The Accountant. It’s a great thriller. Also Affleck’s portrayal as a character with autism is pretty good.

I actually thought this movie was pretty alright definitely over hated although the animated flashpoint film is a masterpiece honestly

I hope they bring Sasha Calle back as Supergirl but if not this was a standout one-time appearance (-_^ ) Never seeing her and Henry Cavill's Superman interact is a true loss for yet another perfect casting of the Kryptonian cousins much like Christopher Reeve and Helen Slater though kinda digitally done dirty here.

The TV series Continuum was premised on time travel. It was eventually revealed that time travel was something like time travel in Flash, where each time you go back you end up on a branched reality, not on your original time line, though history up to that point of your arrival was still the same. She had something of a crisis when she realized that it was impossible for her to get back to the reality she knew. It was a really good series, and I'd love to see someone react to it, but it's probably too obscure to ever make it on anyone's radar.

I’m going to assume the reason they didn’t create a whole new strand of spaghetti when they stopped Bruce and Kara dying is because they only went back a few minutes, compared to Barry going back a decade to save his mom. So the further you go back, the more you change.

You're right, terrible PR was what sunk this movie's financial performance BUT while Miller was the biggest part of it no doubt, the state of the DCEU overall, and this was right after the whole mess with Dwayne Johnson and Black Adam, the failure of Shazam 2 as well as the changing of hands with James Gunn, really REALLY hurt this movie. That it was also poised, after so many woes, as the movie meant to reboot the DCEU, I think put a lot of people off.

This film was announced around the same time that the Flash tv show started. It just finished its ninth and last season

Glad that they Picked This Too Shall Pass as the Song at the End. It Symbolizes the meaning of Letting Go of the Past and that a New Era of DC is coming.

Lmfaooo Holden doing the Leo DiCaprio when Keaton said i’m batman, what a legend 😂

Glad that Holden and Jen Enjoyed the Movie! ONE OF THE BEST DC MOVIES!

Haha, I love that Jen wore an Avengers hoodie to watch DC’s The Flash 😂 Holden - what were you spoiled on?? I unwittingly learned of the Nic Cage cameo ☹️

Supergirl was Helen Slater. Helen later played Supergirl's stepmother in the CW TV series. Her stepfather was Dean Cain

Cool info: The costume department knew that the original Keaton Batman costume was very rigid and wasn't very flexible in the neck/head area, so before he showed up for fitting, they redesigned his suit with a more flexible rubber alternative. When he arrived, they told him of the improvement... but he insisted they go back to the original style as he had all the mannerisms all worked out according to the original suit's accommodations.

congrats on the baby guys! i can’t remember the last time i saw a video from you guys but damn this just took me back like 3 years almost

I too enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would. Best comedy I've seen in years. :)

That opening sequence with Batman is the Bats I think we need

When the other barry died a friend I saw the movie with said "that's a way to kill yourself". Also he actually didn't go back to another universe when he time traveled it just changes the timeline more than it should

glad u guys enjoyed it! i really enjoyed this movie more than i expected. i’m the last few years even movies i’ve looked forward too & really enjoyed like no way home i haven’t gon back to watch but this movie i’ve seen twice already & i’d watch it again. i honestly hope it gets a sequel despite the ezra mlller drama. i really liked this movie.

That was Helen Slater who played the 1980s supergirl. She also played Supergirls adapted mother in the tv show

Think about it in terms of a videogame Barry was essentially savescumming in the final battle. Just far enough to go back where he needs to but not back far enough to actually change anything else

After everything Miller has done, it's fitting that his version The Flash has been banished to the Foreververse.

27:05 it does make sense, because they are going back in time and staying there, not moving forward after changing something. Like flash did in the beginning with his mom. The timeline doesnt change until you move forward after the fact

I gota say, even tho Ezra did bad things IRL his acting playing two different characters was really good! Also great seeing all the timelines was amazing! If you get the chance watch Flashpoint the animated movie and you will see a lot of elements in this movie.

I enjoyed this movie more than i thought i would, I've always loved Michael Keatons Batman and seeing him return was great. Although his call back lines felt a little forced but i know others love them. I wish the old DC tribute cameos were more Flash related but i know there will be more movies and opportunities to do that, even if it wont be in the super near future with the universe reset

I was annoyed too by past Barry but I understood why he was like that. Makes sense because that Barry never experienced loss the way present Barry did.

This movie is so under appreciated I feel like most people just talked smack about it because of Ezra but as far as a super hero movie goes I really enjoyed this one

JEN'S FACE IS PRICELESS!

The best things about this movie was Michael Keaton's Batman and Supergirl. I really do hope we see Sasha Calle as Supergirl again because i think she did a great job! Other than that, I thought the movie was horrible. I knew it wasnt going to happen but I was really really hoping that since the DCEU was gonna be rebooted they would take this opportunity and make it so that Grant Gustin would end up becoming our new Flash because of the timeline being messed up. Wishful thing😅

We need a Micheal Keaton Batman Beyond movie

Helen Slater was the actress from the 80's Supergirl. She was in Legend of Billie Jean and City Slickers

Lol that baby scene is totally the perfect scene to watch after becoming parents! 🤣😂 (Jens reaction to that got a chuckle out of me;)

Honestly production complications aside, I had a good time w this movie. 2/3s of this movie to me is great, the 1st half of the 1st and 3rd act kinda drop the ball, but the entire midsection I loved. Kara and Keaton were amazing to see on the big screen, and I felt like Ezra did a great job of playing two versions of the same character, that also felt like separate people w the separate lives they lived. There was never a moment where I confused the two Barry’s. Zod and especially Faora were super under-utilised (I mean Faora didn’t even speak a word and she was one of the best parts of Man Of Steel) A pretty messy but fitting conclusion to the DCEU, w it centering around Man of Steel given it was also the first movie of this universe. A big mixed bag, not amazing but truly had some good moments.

Loved the Avengers shirt while watching The Flash. I wore a Superman shirt to a Marvel movie last year.

Yeah it's a alternate timeline when Barry went back to save his mom. When he returns from the past he returns into a completely new timeline. It's loosely based off the flashpoint paradox. It had it's good moments but for me seeing Keaton again was one of the best parts. I grew up with Keaton I love that he told the costume designer to keep the cowl the way it was in 89 and returns. That was something he created and it wouldn't be his Batman. Also why didn't they used the voice modulator for Affleck Batman like in the others. Anyone could tell who that Batman is.

Who else is mad Holden didn’t notice the batwing in the moon shot in 18:41

I'm not sure if you're familiar with the flashpoint storyline but I highly recommend watching the DC animated film the flashpoint paradox. It's terrific. Also in The flash TV show, the villain in the fifth season I believe is named Savitar and that's actually a future version of Barry who kept on trying to change the past. His suit was somewhat similar to this Berry with a bunch of metallic spikes.

Re them going back to save Keaton’s Batman towards the end, and not being in another universe again, I think it was tried to explain that it’s only at critical points/events when something is changed it leads to a different universe, as opposed to slight changes to the timeline. Possibly also because it was just a recent moment so it hadn’t been cemented as a critical point yet so going back only a short time might avoid that issue until he goes back far enough and changes something

I think timeline wise, I think it works. If his mom dying is the junction point, then we he goes back 5 mins and not back to her, he is in the same timeline. It doesn’t drastically change again til he goes back to say goodbye to his mom. Then we get Clooney.

It should be noted that during the last weeks of post-production for The Flash movie, James Gunn got involved and changed many things, especially the ending because he didn't want the Snyderverse to continue and disrupt his version of upcoming DCU movies.

hey Holden, i don't know if you have heard of this but Andy Muschietti, the director of this is also directing The Brave and the Bold, the DCU's introduction to Batman. and Superman is being played by David Corenswet

Happy you both enjoyed the film, it’s a lot of fun especially if you’re in you’re mid 30’s 😂 Keaton Batman and the theme was handled very well, check out the deleted scenes! There very much worth watching! Cheers guys

You went into this with the right mindset - turn your brain off and enjoy the show. it's not great but if you just look at it for 2.5 hours of entertainment, it does it's job, like a Michael Bay movie. Like you also, I enjoyed everyone that wasn't the flash. I would love a Kara movie, the Nick Cage superman with the Peters Giant spider was fantastic, Michael Keaton Batman....... i don't know the number of times i saw Batman and Batman Returns as a kid. I loved that Michael Keaton was willing to come back and do this, it made the movie for me.

I Wish that they Kept the Original Ending with Keaton Batman, Supergirl, Wonder Woman and Superman appearing at the End!

Well it makes sense in terms of DC as in flashpoint comics/animation movie when Barry saved his mom he changed the timeline completely events before his moms death were also changed and as thawne explained that a time boom causes ripples of distortion across the timeline whenever you change something hence the ripples change everything in past and future...

All three seasons of the CW Flash were pretty good. It's unfortunate they never made any more after the third...

It's a great day when Holden and Corridor Crew upload Flash content

it seems there was a plan to do a live action batman beyond, with Keaton as the older batman , but it was dependent on how well this one did. as for the cg my thoughts are they had a limited budget to finish the effects on the film when the studio switched hands, so they made the design choice to make it more uniform,

I give it a 5.5 maybe a 6. You guys should watch Flashpoint Paradox although it’s animated, it is great as the comic event and changes. Pretty much what this movie was based on from that premise, and not only Flashpoint rebooted the DC comics to The New 52, but the DCAU…. Highly recommend it and hope others agree.

Jenn should've just pointed to her hoodie when Holden asked "how you feeling going into this"

You are correct, the 3d-ish time dome effect was made intentionally like as an allegory to the Justice League animated series opening

When They Made This Movie When They Were Making The Bat Suit For Michael Keaton They Were Going Make It Where He Can Turn His Head And Actually Can Move But He Told Them Noo Keep It How It Was In The Tim Burton Films

Fun fact: Nicolas Cage lives Superman so much, his firstborn son is named Kal-El.

27:15 it does make sense cause they haven't changed anything yet. In order for a new timeline to be created you have to change something in the old

Honestly, I’ve seen Shazam 2, guardians, Oppenheimer, Barbie, Blue Beatle, and Antman so far this year; Tbe Flash was undoubtedly the best. Ezra Millers acting was absolutely great in all three roles they played in the movie. Sasha Calle was great was supergirl. Too bad we won’t see her beside Henry Cavill. Onto the Ezra Miller stuff, legitimately look up the “news” articles about them. All click bait Hollywood tabloid websites. No actual news websites. Obviously at one point Ezra Miller’s mental health went really down hill when doubt their mental health went down when they broke into their friends house. But Celebrities like RDJ have done much worse and been for given. The child grooming accusations have gone absolutely no where, no charges ever filed. No actual evidence. In fact since the movie came out, Ezra Miller put out an instagram statement said they were going to be taking action against the accusers for misusing the court system to attack them.

I wish they had done a end credits scene where Bruce is chatting with Barry and introduced his friend....Terry McGuiness( I know I misspelled it) in full BATMAN BEYOND gear.

15:32 in the comics apparently when you do a Flashpoint you just being there causes everything to shift and in this universe I'm guessing the can of tomatoes had a big impact on everything.

The end scene outside the court is an actual real spot...in London UK

It is hilarious how Jen talking about how she is not super eager to watch this DCEU movie, while wearing an Avengers hoodie. 😂

18:27 the passenger seats were for Robin and Batgirl…

My guess is that either they are re-entering different realities of that moment, or when going back to the past, the other Flash knocked him into another one. He can go back through time without changing anything, but got knocked into an alternate one instead.

So odd how this my wife watches comes out the same day as the Corredor crew videos on this very movie! Hahahah. They mention that baby scene. 😂😂

I was there for Michael Keaton too! He was the reason I watched this movie.

A kid losses his mom his dad is framed for the murder and he become an orphan in one night. He grows up and obtains the power to travel through time. He doesn't want to take over the world. He doe snot want to obtain power or money. The only thing he wants to do is save is mother and father. He does it and finds out by doing so he dooms the world. So he has to make the decision to go back and let her die. I do not know about you but that would be like tearing my heart apart. That is why this story means so much to me. The tragedy of Barry Allen is that his mother dying is a fixed point in time and has to happen or the world will fall.

“This cinematic universe is going to be dismantled anyways” legit about to watch the movie that dismantles it

5:49 e-trade baby. 6:50 he has some kind of armor over his suit so he would be able to slide on the asphalt. I love the whole lasso of truth scene with Batman & the Flash. 9:55 If you’ve seen “Shawshank Redemption” you should recognize the poster on the wall he phases through. 7:57 Billy Crudup was supposed to but filming schedule caused them to have to recast him with Ron Livingston. 16:03 I like how they hide his face until the reveal. I think it makes it better. 17:05 this is the Bruce Wayne that Barry needed to start with. He said things Barry needed to hear. 17:24 it’s what Commissioner Gordon finds on Jokers body in 89. 18:18 fun fact about his suit is they tried to make his suit more flexible and he said it needed to be stiffer cause of how it was in 89 & 92. He had to turn his whole body so this suit had to be the same. 19:30 a Michael Keaton “Batman Beyond” movie. That’s what DC needs to do next. 25:43 as Keaton Batman said that was Barry created a timeline mess like the cooked pasta the timeline was no longer straight. 27:21 unless cause they didn’t go back so far in time they were still in the same universe. 28:48 I like how the red paint falls off his suit as he keeps going back in time showing him changing to evil (in a way). 30:51 I think they decided to do the Superman Returns with Brandon Routh instead. 33:32 Jason Momoa must have had a blast filming this end credit scene.

...."he's in the MCU now." That got me lol

The flash is one of the most OP characters, endless power

2:05 okay, so. The CliffNotes version is: Ezra Miller has been causing people actual headaches off-camera, up to and including barging into people’s hotel rooms and smashing up personal property. There was a statement supposedly put out by them (by which I mean Ezra; Ezra uses they/them pronouns) that was an apology but it felt more like a prepared statement from their agent or publicist or whoever.

As a fan of Ben Affleck Batman, he didn’t use a voice changer like the past movies but his Batman voice was amazing. Much better than Christian Bale in all aspects

When can I get Jen's hoodie?? Love it

Now you gotta show Jen The Flash TV Show

Yeah I have to say I kind of loved this movie. I just watched it this weekend, I put it off until it was cheap because of the terrible reviews, but ended up really enjoying it. The CGI was generally bad, but was just "fine" enough for me that it did not pull me out of the movie. Maybe because the movie as a whole was more silly, and not trying to be super real. I thought Miller was excellent, very funny and played both versions of him well. All of the cameos and nods to other universes was very fun. I thought Supergirl very good, she had very limited screen time so hard to say for sure, but I liked the look and feel of the character, I hope they keep her and don't recast or just drop the character. The main thing I did not like, was how they never resolved Supergirl's story. I assume in the new timeline there's a good chance she is still held captive in Russia. I was hoping Barry would at least say he has to check or save her even if he does not do it in this movie. The other thing was I thought "Evil Flash" was too easy to see coming, and was way too easy to resolve. But overall this is one of my top 3 or 4 DCEU movies.

In Clooney's defense, he wasn't a bad Batman. He was in a bad Batman movie

I would honestly love to see Holdan and Jen watch The Flash tv show on the channel it’s honestly one of my favorite flash shows as the suit gets more comic accurate as the show goes on.

Re Clooney returning for a cameo, I’m pretty sure they tried to get Bale back but he wasn’t interested. They previewed the movie early and it didn’t show him at all, just had Ezra’s ‘who the f**k is this?’ Like and then cut to credits. It seems this movie had a LOT of delays and reshoots, I think people in charge at WB & DC at the time wanted rid of all Snyder’s versions of the characters and intended to end the movie with Keaton permanently in place as the current Batman so then the now cancelled Batwoman movie that had already been filmed with Keaton in it and also with JK Simmons (reprising his role of Gordon from Justice League) could make sense. When David Zaslov took over WB when the Discovery takeover took place, I think he decided to try and right the ship while saving costs and clearing up the audience confusion from too many different versions, and then James Gunn was put in charge to reboot the DCU, so I think they decided to do a throwaway joke at the end with Clooney. To be honest, it’s a perfect analogy for how sh**ty they’ve treated the franchises and the fans IMO.

You need to see "The Death of Superman Lives, What Happened?" by Jon Schnepp, who unfortuanetly passed away a few years ago, but this was his dream project and he made it happen. It features Tim Burton, Kevin Smith and producer Jon Peters among many other faces and interviews. It's awesome. You won't regret watching this.

according to this and ZSJL, going back seconds doesn't change the timeline

I absolutely loved this movie!

Jen are you serious? You don't even look like you just had a baby. Way to bounce back girl!

More than the Ezra's controversy, it's knowing that this universe was being scrapped made people lose interest in this. They claimed that they will use this movie to explain away their reboot. But a lot of fans loved Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot and Jason Momoa in their roles and aren't quite ready to give them up yet. I just hope whatever they end up doing works out in the end. If this too blows up DCEU is never gonna recover.

I love this film The Flash OMG Michael Keaton as Batman my childhood is back, George Reeves as Superman from 1950's tv series, Christopher Reeve as Superman from Superman films 1978-1987, Helen Slater as Supergirl (1984) Adam West as Batman from the 1960's tv series and George Clooney as Batman from Batman & Robin 1997. "la vida te da sorpresa sorpresa te da la vida ay dios" that lyrics is from the classic song Pedro Navaja performed by the actor and singer Rubén Blades.

The CGI in the film was absolutely a stylized choice. Its supposed to look like a comic book.

The george clooney Batman was the first Batman movie i had ever seen in theaters when i was a little kid. That bit at the end with him was so funny lol

I like how Jen is wearing a Marvel sweater

Came outa the theatre and just thought "meh" But with each second that passes, I've liked this movie less and less...

It blows my mind how good the live action One Piece was. I hope you'll do it on the channel. No familiarity with the original series needed at all. It's so, so good.

The People who did the CGI said they have 1 week to done them and that is the reason for the bad CGI.

I found it to be better then people said it was . Fun fact they shot three endings or this film .
