This movie was made way before he was handed the reigns. some changes were made but those involved removing aquaman and wonder woman so let's not start giving him credit when he hasn't done a damn thing I saw some of the reaction videos where folks were say, "Thank you James Gunn!" Like he had set this all up years ago. jsilverjanet, taro90 and theCapraAegagrus 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axelrod Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I looked up the answer to my own question. "We're figuring it out..." https://movieweb.com/supergirl-sasha-calle-future-figuring-it-out/ I suppose they could be waiting to see how this actress gets received in the Flash before making a final decision. Or, they might very well know already, but don't want to say she's out before the movie even opens, because that might leave a bad taste in some people's mouths.

And I thought I read somewhere that Cavill filmed a cameo for this around the same time as Black Adam, but his was also cut. Any truth to that? Can't imagine why they would be ok to keep Affleck in the film, but go out of their way to delete the others (esp. Momoa's Aquaman, who seems to be part of the going-forward plans-- at least near term). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Commissioner Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I wish there was more consistency with DC movies (as many of you have pointed out above). But after watching the trailer, this movie actually looks pretty good. You can never have enough Batman IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does look really good though and if it does a good job explaining the transition from the DCEU then the timing couldn't be better.

Broke as a Joke Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 So I take it Flash couldn't carry his own movie so they just added as much Batman as possible. Whatever works... The Commissioner and Gatsby77 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

media_junkie Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Also just as an FYI, my sister (who is not a comic book person but does watch most, not all, but most of the films) just asked my why DC copied the last Spiderman movie. I laughed, because to the "lay person" I'm sure it looks like that. I guess that is what happens when you announce a movie then take like a decade to get it to the theaters.

I think what it comes down to is Batman played a key part of the Flashpoint story. Which is why even in the animated movie, we had Thomas Wayne as a different form of the Batman story. Not that I meant to disrupt anyone's questioning of the movie influences. Edited February 13, 2023 by Bosco685 jsilverjanet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I am aware that Batman was a big part of Flashpoint, I still think they are trying to distract us from "Flash" in a Flash movie. jsilverjanet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theCapraAegagrus Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 It was dumb to remove Superman, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman from this. Partially, because it'd be amazing to see even just a glimpse of Atlantis vs Themyscira. The trailer looks damn good, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though at that time the hurdle was the WB Studios leadership. But seeing Shannon, True, Affleck, Keaton in what appears to be the wrap-up of the DCEU story for now does look intense. I was not expecting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually very enthusiastic with this movie but you’re right… The meme levels are high. I wonder if that’s deliberate, because there’s no way they wouldn’t think that a head on shot of him in the cowl wouldn’t look silly. It looks silly from this… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
