The Flash is DC's multiverse movie to go up against the MCU and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse, in which Barry Allen travels back in time to meet a younger version of himself and get in a whole lot of trouble (General Zod is back.) The issue is that, even though The Flash has a lot of good stuff in it, all of it ultimately ends up frustrating and dissatisfying the audience. And the result is that The Flash is the biggest superhero flop of all time, losing around 200 million dollars. In today's Anatomy of a Failure, let's dig into that. Why is The Flash so frustrating and why didn't people want to go see it more?

Important reasons why the flash movie failed. It failed not because of this movie's bad CGI, bad script writing, bad scenes which made nonsense and disrespecting the legends. It failed because of Erza Miller, the greed/ immorality/ arrogance/corruption of Warner Bros & new president of WB Discovery David & James Gunn of DCU Studios. Before the movie release, Erza Miller committed crimes, choked a woman on raw camera in foreign country(Iceland), arrested multiple times, facing disturbing & disgusting allegations of bad things he did. What did WB do? WB protected him instead & tried to cover up his crimes and make sure this didn't go on media but it's too late. WB bribed the couple Erza threaten with, to drop restraining order against him. WB defended him not because of positive testings but because he is part of the normalized cults(LGBTQ, woke culture, non-binary,pronouns) they don't want to offend. The same normalized cults & drag queens allowed by US Government under Biden Administration to deceive, indoctrinate, brainwash & corrupt underage children with gay agenda, nudity, pedophilia, adult & child pornography & manipulate them into transition (surgercial mutilation to turn innocent children & teens into transgender) those who transit willingly & unwillingly faced mentalnproblems, committed suicide, etc. America is messed up. WB & Andy director of Flash helped Erza Miller evade the police while filming the reshoots of the flash movie. The police were after him because he avoided the court order to stay away from the native American teenager he was accused of abusing her sexually, physically, emotionally, mentally & influencing & manipulating her since she was 12 years old. One of the fools in WB wrote in twitter that this movie will make you forget Erza's crimes. Thanks to him, everyone searched him online and jhis crimes are exposed. Want to make a good superhero movie & make the audience happy, fire the bad actor, replaced him with another actor, hired a different talent director to correct mistakes, changed the script & reshoot the scenes and remove the original scenes like this in this bad movie BUT NO, Warner Bros didn't do the right thing & chose to make bad business decision. WB don't care what Erza Miller did especially if he was responsible for the disappearance of his girlfriend and her children - the one crime Erza Miller committed and noone is talking about due to arrogance of WB(old & regime along with VFX guy, Andy director, Jamesi Gunn & David of WBD) protecting the criminal below. In case noone(especially you) knows, Erza miller is involved in missing persons case (his new girlfriend & her children) last year, Her family haven't heard from her since they were living with Erza Miller in the barn. All signs point to him due to evidence of domestic violence and child neglect. This disappearnce happened after Erza Miller was arrested for breaking in & burglary, . Law enforcement & child protective services came in the barn looking for them. Their belongings of the mother & children were there but not in the house. Erza denied(lied) to the police he hasn't seen them in months. Does it make sense for the mother and children to leave their stuff & leave? His bail was paid & have no evidence against him. See proof below www.google.com/search?q=ezra+miller,+missing+girlfriend+and+missing+children&tbm=nws&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjI49PVkdH_AhWeUaQEHchqAm4Q0pQJegQIDBAB&biw=360&bih=610&dpr=2 duckduckgo.com/?va=v&t=ha&q=ezra+miller+missing+family&ia=web duckduckgo.com/?va=v&t=ha&q=ezra+miller+missing+family&iax=videos&ia=videos www.bing.com/search?q=erza+miller%2C+missing+girlfriend+and+missing+children&form=QBLH&sp=-1&lq=1&pq=erza+miller%2C+missing+girlfriend+and+missing+children&sc=0-52&qs=n&sk=&cvid=227B4271039D4DD98F8768F7DBA8D489&ghsh=0&ghacc=0&ghpl= search.aol.com/aol/search;_ylt=AwrFdDUgPZFk1LsMUoR8CWVH;_ylc=X0kDZEhwS1lERXdMaklfLjlJWVN6T3ZpUVVsTkRFdU1nQUFBQUFxLkdpSwRfUwMxMTk3ODAzOTAwBF9yAzIEYWN0bgNjbGsEY3NyY3B2aWQDZEhwS1lERXdMaklfLjlJWVN6T3ZpUVVsTkRFdU1nQUFBQUFxLkdpSwRmcgNuYQRmcjIDc2EtZ3AEZ3ByaWQDZnZhWTVMM3VRVFdSRmdwZWFwZzN3QQRuX3JzbHQDMARuX3N1Z2cDNARvcmlnaW4Dc2VhcmNoLmFvbC5jb20EcG9zAzEEcHFzdHIDZXpyYSBtaWxsZXIgbWlzc2luZyAEcHFzdHJsAzIwBHFzdHJsAzI2BHF1ZXJ5A2V6cmElMjBtaWxsZXIlMjBtaXNzaW5nJTIwZmFtaWx5BHNlYwNzZWFyY2gEc2xrA2Fzc2lzdAR0MgNzZWFyY2gEdDQDYXNzaXN0BHRfc3RtcAMxNjg3MjM5OTc1BHZ0ZXN0aWQD?pvid=dHpKYDEwLjI_.9IYSzOviQUlNDEuMgAAAAAq.GiK&ei=UTF-8&v_t=na&gprid=&s_it=sb-top&fr2=sa-gp&q=ezra+miller+missing+family duckduckgo.com/?q=erza+miller+choking+fan+and+arreste+footage&va=v&t=ha&iar=videos&iax=videos&ia=videos Erza Miller was arrested multiple times for assault & intentionally assault the young woman with the chair(nearly killing her - she has one inch cut on her forehead) , threaten to kill the couple, caught on camera choking the female fan, etc and the disturbing allegations of pedophilia, sex cult leader, liar & manipulator sociopath & psychopath, assaulting & acting creepy around women & children, etc - the things he was accused of before he was cast into Fantastic Beasts. A person capable of violence & the allegations he is accused of above is also capable of murder, hiding bodies, getting away with murder with or without the help. Some allegations he was accused of turned out to be true., etc. You better pray & hope the missing mother and her missing children are falive & ound safe. If they're found deceased & evidence points to Erza, Erza will be arrested & won't getaway this time, this is the DCEU legacy, Zack Snyder & whoever chose to cast Erza will get blamed, & brutal end lawsuits will destroyed WB & demise of WB for choosing to defend & make the movie in stead of morally doing the thing like fire Erza & replace him but no Defend this movie all you want, you chose to support the criminal(& possible murderer) & the corrupted film studio WB who turn the blind eye & support him, made him make fake apology, bribed the couple to drop restraining order against him & hid Erza from the police in order to do reshoots of the Flash. Ignorance is not the Same as Innocent. ru-vid.com/group/PLyXviVu3m5Ch1lgGinC6MiDSJS_Nx4NE4 Is this the legacy you want for young fans to remember the superhero movie starring the man who assaults people, nearly killed two women and is responsible for the disappearance of his new girlfriend and her children?

@RandomPerson-tz7wk 10 месяцев назад
Correction: this is what happens when executives keep changing their mind. The writer completes the script and was not kept for rewrite or scene change. Executive hire a lesser writer to do rewrite. Repeat until production began and move away from the script because directors, actors, and other higher suits demand scene change without taking into consideration of the whole story. And they bring a new writer who was barely given enough time to read through the initial script and made change that is requested to satisfy everyone involved. You end up with a zombie script made by many people input without a solid story structure.

@@ClarksonNo1 That's your opinion and I respect it but I feel it's an atrocious movie and there is a reason it bombed on such an epic level. If you think about it Batman serves no purpose. Yes he helps them find Supergirl but she also serves no purpose. They could both be removed and the plot of the movie doesn't change. I loved Faorah in Man of Steel but as he said in the video what a waste here. I'm not even sure that's the real actress who played her. It looks more CGI than anything. Even Zod feels pointless. Barry's mom died when he was a child so Barry could've went to any time after that but somehow ends up right as Zod shows up? Pretty convenient. It all feels so forced. The cameos are garbage CGI fan service. Batman and Supergirl's death are so unemotional. It feels like fans have been conditioned to like trash. The bar has been lowered so much now that when a movie is average you have fans calling it amazing. Pretty CGI and explosions seems to be what the typical super hero fan cares about now. Or a cameo of their favorite character. You said you felt the movie was good. Would you mind saying why you feel it's good? Cause whenever I see people say 'It was great/good' I never see them say why.

They do not have to be passive to fall into this category. Any female character whose role is to die in order to move the plot and/or male characters involvement forward is considered fridging. Supergirl was killed over and over for Barry to try and change the timeline. That is literally what fridging is. While it might not be as bad as old comics, it still falls in this trope.

4:00 Them fumbling the conclusion of the mom's death drove me the most nuts. At the end Barry went back and altered time to save his father, but didn't even bother with a passive peak to find out who really murdered his mother. Even if he couldn't stop the murder, he could find out who did it and prosecute them later in the future. As to the purpose and ultimate death of Super Girl, you could argue that it was trying to show how the loss of women in their lives negatively affects the Barrys. Old Barry loses his mother and sets up the circumstances of the movie, New Barry loses Super Girl and kicks off the movie's actual events. Except that New Barry and Super Girl have zero screen time to develop anything resembling a meaningful relationship, or really a relationship in any way. He wasn't even the one that rescued her from the Soviets.

Indeed. At this point, much like with Static Shock or modern Square Enix and a Final Fantasy VI remake, I'd much rather the source material be left alone than risk the unholy violations that would undoubtedly be visited upon the source material. Especially given that we were tragically robbed of the potential for Kevin Conroy to reprise his role anyway. Also, considering they already brought back a dead actor to prop up for *this* movie, it'd be easy to imagine WB ghoulishly propping up some macabe CGI replica of Conroy with a hollow A.I. generated voice speaking lines written by people trying to capture his essence in a cynical attempt to appeal to nostalgia without so much as an ounce of effort to actually pay tribute. Compared to that genuinely horrifying prospect, a reality bereft of a live-action Batman Beyond/Static Shock feature production seems whimsical, warm, and fuzzy.

And it carried the horror of watching your mom die, watching yourself try to stop it only for yourself to stop yourself, watching yourself it happen, and knowing you probably did stop it but something went wrong to make yourself go back to stop yourself.

I fully agree with everything you said in the video. I think a better way of doing the multiverse scene if they REALLY wanted to showcase the cameos would be old barry and new barry running while fighting through the multiverse. For example, old Barry could try to run back in time to let his mom die while new Barry chases him trying to stop him. They would be punching each other into different universes. This would also be a really good call back to the actual Flashpoint comicbook/animated movie where an older barry allen runs back in time to stop his past self from saving his mom.

I’m reading a book right now about how to write fantasy, and she actually mentions the idea of “balancing plates”. Every scene you juggle up plates to keep the audience interested, and you set down plates once they are satisfied. Each plate is a narrative line. If you throw up plates and never bring them down, or just drop them ungracefully, your audience will be frustrated. You need to set up plates, and then bring them down with the same flare you juggled them up with.

About half of these issues are a result of trying and failing to adapt Flashpoint; Superman's rescue meant something in Flashpoint because everything after the escape was different, plus it tied into the US Government stuff with Cyborg who is GONE (wonder why). "Dark Speedster" was Reverse Flash in Flashpoint, a character who's already been long-running in other media and is motivated to make Barry's life worse, also providing a good excuse for plotholes; good old Eobard did it! The circumstances were so grim that Flash was taking things more seriously, so he worked as a serious protagonist. Other villains are completely secondary, so they're novelty characters; evil variants of Aquaman and Wonder Woman who exist for cool action and take up little "screentime" while Reverse Flash handles the character stuff.

Then again the lore of the Flash, while appearing whimsical on the surface, is extremely convoluted so I might be wrong.

Instead of a showdown against Eobard Thawne while the universe is dying, there's just Zod and nothing else. Instead of Barry getting his powers back being a big thing and a huge plot event, he just gets lifted by supergurl and thats it. And so on, and so on.

He's such an interesting villain, because he's a perfect foil to Barry Allen. And them not even bothering to have one of the most well known, infamous comic book villains of all time in this movie (which would have been the perfect time to do so) is straight-up retarded.

Expensive nostalgia machines like this need to hit you in the FEELS with something poignant - Andrew Garfield catching MJ got me teary. Maybe having Henry Cavill be there for Flash, because he also couldn’t save his Dad in Man of Steel might have hit the feels button. DC just doesn’t know how to craft something that makes a fan feel anything; saw End Game on the opening weekend, this dude screamed when Cap was holding Mjolnir. Straight up shrieked with joy. Imagine having an old, half broken Bruce Wayne use Green Lantern’s power ring or something. DC has all these huge open goals to kick and they just keep missing…

I think this is the problem with multiverse concept stories. They end up being inconsequential because there's always another universe with the same characters.
@BiggieTrismegistus
@BiggieTrismegistus 10 месяцев назад
DC's multiverse in the comics is interesting because there are only 52 universes in "the local multiverse" and they're radically different from each other for the most part. They might have a "Superman" and a "Batman" but the characters from one aren't interchangeable with characters from another. The "Superman" from Earth-4 is actually Captain Atom. The Superman from Earth-23 is a Kal-El from Krypton but he's black and happens to also be the president of the US. The Superman of Earth-3 is also a Kal-El of Krypton but he's evil and calls himself Ultraman. DC's 52 multiverse is more to explore how the characters as archetypes work in different settings and can be used to tell some entertaining stories.

In my humble opinion, I would love to see the overarching narrative of "let it go, accept the past" done right/ shown from your perspective of how it could be done right and present examples of such themes done right in other movie. That would make this video a 10/10 perfect. It's close, though. I've been watching you for a while, and you keep getting better. 🎉

Nicolas Cage as Superman killing the giant spider that Kevin Smith infamously ranted about in *"An Evening with Kevin Smith"* was glorious. Cage named one of his sons Kal-El, he's earned the right to play him at least once, even if it's for 5 seconds. *"Superman Lives"* would have probably sucked, but I'm still a bit sad that we didn't get to see Nic Cage as Bizarro in the episode of HBO Max *Strange Adventures* that Kevin Smith was supposed to write. That's one cancellation that actually upset me, but hey, we got a fantastic Bizarro in the show *Superman & Lois* , so I'm not all that broken up about it anymore.

Just to point out. The lightning having to happen twice is part of Flashpoint, the story this was based on. He fails then, tries again... A fundamental part of the story. The main difference being that in the Comic Barry gets struck before they can re set up the process. But he is meant to lose powers, try to get them back, fail, then successfully regaining powers.

_"Unless I missed something"_ Umm...well, actually... you clearly did. Like most of the ppl hating on the movie. 🤦‍♂ That cut was made with an alien kryptonian alloy. That's why he wasn't able to recover from his injuries. And that's also why he was able to "collect" all those different shards throughout his body and become "Dark Flash" without them somehow falling out of his body due to his healing factor. So again... it seems most ppl, like you, didn't had a clue about what the movie was about or why certain things happened the way they did and are now bashing on the film like it's hot garbage when in fact it isn't (don't get me wrong, it isn't perfect either). It was sadly a movie FOR DC FANS and that's why it failed. You can't aim at "fans only" when making these kind of movies. That's exactly why Warner has their animated division. That was their biggest mistake here imo.

I agree. She was criminally underused. Even in the comic, Superman survived the final battle, only dying with everyone else when the atom exploded. I did agree, Zod would have easily beat her up, as she never used her powers, assuredly spending years in red light. In truth, it’s more understandable than the way Zod seemed to be a match for Clark, having lived his entire life supercharged by solar radiation, and aware of his powers. Powers Zod automatically mastered. It was one of my main issues with MoS…. I would have liked to see her as Kara Zor-El, or even recast as an elseworld’s supergirl- child of Clark and Lois, or better still, Clark and Diana…
