Oh and about that concern in the beginning. The Flashpoint Paradox marked a reboot in dc comics so the movie ends in a new timeline to the viewers and War is the new intro to the team. When Barry lets his mom die at the end to fix time, the present isn’t fully how he left it (think how you chip a teacup and you can put the chip back but the crack is still there, the cup isn’t the exact same as before).

[@AndrewRuth7]

Don’t want to be that guy lol but this might help clarify some things: by this time, all the heroes are brand new, and haven’t been active for more than a year. So Clark just became Superman and he’s in his early twenties , hence the immaturity and increased aggression. They wanted to show how he became the Superman we know and love. The same goes for the rest of the heroes hence the slightly different characterizations. by the end they all don’t seem like a team because they aren’t, they all still just met each other and aren’t friends yet. With this run, they decided to play the long game with character arcs but unfortunately, a lot of the fans weren’t happy with it,( Superman not being a Boy Scout at first) I personally loved it because it showed that characters have their flaws and they did not start off as these Godlike figures, they become them. Love the videos, enjoy the ride!

[@cptbabyface9804]

In many of the continuities the Joker is created when Batman accidentally knocks a man named Jack Napier (The original Red Hood) into a vat of acid when their heist escape took them on a detour through Ace Chemicals. The only time in film or animation history where the Joker existed before the death of Bruce's parents was in the Joker movie with Joaquin Phoenix. In the flashpoint universe Martha becomes the Joker after the traumatic death of her son Bruce but the Joker never existed prior to that event. Hope that cleared up any of the confusion.

[@vanguarddude3833]

The greatest explanation about the flash fixing the timeliness is from the flash show. Even though flash went back and fixed time things aren't exactly the same. If you chip a cup that's going back in time and when you want to fix what you changed you put the piece back but a Crack will remain meaning the changes to the timeline.

[@DocuzanQuitomos]

"It doesn't feel exactly like a team..." That was the general idea of the New 52 (among other changes). The reboot (both in comics, and that translated to film) tried to make the superheroes we know more interesting by making them "less perfect" and experienced. In this new continuity, the first superheroes came public to the world kind of recently (instead of being a familiar presence for more decades), that's why some are pretty reckless and careless in several things. If you can, eventually, check the other animated films about Batman and the Justice League; they are nice adaptations of comic storylines (just like these) and also provide some elements to understand other character that (since then) haven't got stand alone films (like Wonder Woman or Green Lantern, the second animated Green Lantern movie shows in good detail the extent of the Green Lantern Corps); while they belong to other continuities pre-Flashpoint, the general ideas of what those characters are and how they fit into the DC canon were not rebooted (and they are still a quick reference to several events that happen in more modern versions). Still, you are in for a ride just with this continuity. Nice reaction and see you in the next one.

[@dungeonmaster16]

3:00 yeah flashpoint comic event retconned dc comic universe and formed New 52 which lasted from 2011-2016.

[@Dannieboy215]

So it's kind of interesting once flash did flash point (the flashpoint movie) and he fixes everything and comes back to his time he wakes up in the universe he is in now (the movies you are watching now) everyone may look different from before and act different but its them the flashpoint is like a reset button for the universe so that's why everyone looks different then the last movie also with the flash himself he does remember doing the flash point but its like the flashpoint movie his memories are changing with the new timeline he created so that's why he doesn't really mention it

[@localhobo5362]

yes and no. This movies takes BEFORE Barry gave Bruce the letter. It shows how Justice League was formed in this new timeline Barry created (5 years prio to the letter moment), that's why they both dont remember each other, because letter moment didnt happen yet. Many people think that Barry just undid his mistake of saving his mother, but in reality he created whole new timeline or alternative universe. Because even one change "sends" ripples across the universe essentially changing everyhting. Sorry for being a nerd

Fun fact: At the end of Flashpoint, Barry DID NOT RETURN TO HIS REALITY OR UNIVERSE, he returned to this New 52, ​​which are the movies they are watching, what they don't explain and why we all got confused the first time, is that that scene happens a lot time after Justice League War, since it more or less happens around the eighth movie of this new universe. And this is confirmed, with a certain scene that happens in the last film of this DC saga. I won't say anything else because of spoilers.

[@jimmyphelps6037]

I was wondering why Flash didn’t know Batman was real cause at the end of Flashpoint he brings Bruce that letter from Thomas i was trying to come up with an explanation and figured maybe after giving him the letter the change in the timeline caught up with him and everyone else had new memories and in the universe he wasn’t supposed to know Batman at that point so he forgot that whole interaction.

Okay so basically, so you’re not confused, the end of flashpoint when flash comes back and gives Batman the letter is somewhere towards the end of this timeline of movies.

This movie is the beginning of the timeline set up by flashpoint and everyone is still relatively new at this. look forward to some character development

As far as how it fits i to the last movie, this acts as the introduction of the new timeline where all the characters first meet and at some point the new timeline barry will have his memory of the original timeline restored and give Bruce the note at the end of flashpoint.

[@localhobo5362]

You know the fun part? That moment with the letter at the end of Flashpoint happens in the future relative to this movie. In the comics, the war arc takes place five years before the point where Flash returned. Shortly after his return, Flash's memories start to "adapt" to the new timeline, causing him to forget everything about the previous timeline and Flashpoint. So, it's actually the reverse of what you said. He won't regain his memories. When he stopped himself from saving his mother, the changes echoed both into the future and the past, essentially creating a new timeline. It wouldn't make sense if the events in this new timeline only started happening after Barry returned. I hope Iit makes sense, because it's very confusing part.

Seeing as one of the main origins for the Joker is that he was a stand up comic, who not only was forced to become a small time criminal by gangsters but also forced to wear a red hood who then got knocked into a vat of acid when fleeing Bruce Wayne's Batman. Then in a universe where Bruce doesn't become the bat the original joker never gets knocked into the vat. So flashpoint would have a different joker

It's a great watch that is sadly overlooked by newcomers. The animation is stunning, characterisation on point, has a great story and most surprisingly good music. It was made during a time when Warner Bros had bigger budgets for their animated movies and it definitely shows. The biggest selling point of the movie to me however is that it actually felt like a cinematic movie, not some extended episode like the newer ones tend to be. It had a gripping cold open, good buildup, fantastic climax and a satisfying ending. Just throwing it out there in case you ever wanna check out any animated movies with a different flavour seeing that it was made in 2010, before the MCU set the bar for superhero movies and everyone else wanted to copy them by making everything a shared universe.

Yeah I wasn't crazy about how Superman was treated at first. But you learn that he was fresh as being Superman. Don't worry they all get better.

On Superman and how he acts: in the new 52 timeline Clark’s parents died in an accident when he was I think 15-16 years old. So with dad and mom out of his life then teachings is mildly altered. He still uses his powers for good o help ppl, but he is more cocky about it.

If the context is helpful at all, the DCAMU movies are based on the reboot DC did for their comics in 2011 called the New 52. Attempting to give a fresh take on the characters, DC gave the characters slight personality and design changes.

Superman does seem a bit like Batman here: Very serious, closed off, brooding and violent against competition rather than trying to be friends first

Green Lantern Emerald Knights or Green Lantern First Flight should be next on the list just so Jen can get a little more familiar with Green Lanterns.
