Excuse me, Looper. The Flash movie has canonized the Snydet Cut of Justice League, not Joss Whedon's cut

[@screenwriterjohn]

Yeah, none of this makes sense anymore.

[@yudhazacharias9377]

@@screenwriterjohn The Flash movie established that Barry cannot speed people away, just like in the Snyder Cut, and not Whedon's cut. There's also an easter egg of Aquaman pointing at Barry in the Chronobowl, that very scene happened in the Snyder Cut

[@jaydenscott1451]

​​@@yudhazacharias9377ot just that Iris made a mention of them meeting a few years ago which only happened in the Snyder cut and also when Barry talked to Bruce about going back in time they mentioned the city in Russia where he went back a minute in the Snyder cut.

1st rule of a cinematic universe: "You do NOT tell everyone that you're making a cinematic universe." 2nd rule of a cinematic universe: "You do NOT imitate the MCU."

[@jorgealexandergazcolem160]

Agree

[@sweafcat]

@@jorgealexandergazcolem160 i second that since universal dark monster verse planned too far ahead vs the Kaiju verse that led to gorilla vs kong wasn't planned too far ahead to the public and has done well with world building, Sony lost site of that as well till probably recently where marvel was like "hold my not beer and watch how to do real world building "

[@NIDELLANEUM]

What I like about the Monsterverse is that it took its sweet time to develop a world in which it made sense for Godzilla and King Kong to coexist and fight each other. If it was another attempt of a cinematic universe, they would have rushed everything by having Monarch just infodump everything about King Kong's existence, and just making movies that were 2 hours of "hey wink wink we have multiple kaijus in this universe wink wink"@@sweafcat

[@sweafcat]

@@NIDELLANEUM very true, which may be where they did imitate the MCU in the sense like any good story, you don't rush/ drop the whole list at once. Black Adam had an example of this that James Gunn I am curious may slip up... establishing a hero team in a universe he is trying to create before its explained how long its been around. JSA was that example where Gunn could be messing up the JLA with too many characters for the first of a "new" era movie in his superman movie.

[@Differ85]

They forgot that this Batman (Batfleck) lost Robin to Jared Leto's Joker.

[@Wobinator45]

They need to redo this video or at least update it. They ignored ZSJL and it bothers me because people will be mislead on the full story

[@NA-bn9er]

And this video was uploaded 2 days ago lol

[@shahanajbegum1743]

You missed four detailsthe darkseid conquiring earth, cyborgs origin, peacemakers story,and gathering justice society members in black adam

[@NoonMight]

I think when Billy split his power with his siblings in the first movie, it took 4/5th or 5/6th of his total power away, and that’s why he wasn’t as powerful in gods of fury

[@bharatsharma871]

Thanks for this

[@CApt-NinJA]

Thank you 🙌🏻

[@Callumdevan17]

The wizard's didn't strip Adam of his power, if that were the case, he would have been mortal and no need for imprisonment. I think once the wizard's give a person their power's, their powers cannot be stripped. The imprisonment was the only way that Adam could be beaten.

[@ToDCoD]

cool thank you!

[@Phrankytee]

Thanks!

[@josedias5978]

[@karelmarcellino3538]

C'mon, continue the DC universe timeline until Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, by including Zack Snyder's Justice League and Peacemaker season 1

[@chookiemunster]

A timeline that does not matter anymore 😂

[@ericthompson4655]

Man, wish @looper went with the Zack Snyder’s Justice League cut instead of the Steppenwolf version.

[@KGBSpyGeorgeCostanza]

This is a whole video I gotta drink on, I can still pay attention despite being a bit ehh

[@gakabler]

And you thought that the MCU timeline was confusing.

[@lebogangphasha5246]

If this Universe in about 1999 could have had a Proper 10 year planning and Zack Synder was given a full Co-ownership of Leading this Universe without Interference, could have been miles ahead of MCU and respected. Movies like Batman Begins, Watchmen and Batman 2019 could have not appeared Unfortunately but 2 Dark Knights Movie should have been an Opening start of DCEU in 2009 and 2011 followed by Man of Steel in 2013, and Zack Synder given a platform to direct 3 movies and just like Man of Steel assisted by Christopher Nolan in all 3 movies. We could have had a proper Green lantern Hal Jordan movie as well and 2019 Joker could been part of DCEU. Zack Synder and DCEU deserved 20year Streak.

[@certifiedchaos4643]

I think Dr fate should have been in in both Wonder Woman films and I think Wonder Woman should have been in blac Adam instead of cyclone and atom

[@HeatherNickless-vt8zr]

Corto Maltese was mentioned in the Tim Burton "Batman" film, I think this should be a clue that the DCEU is the original timeline of the altered timeline of the Batman Legacy films; I suspect that the reason why the Batman Forever Batman was skipped over because I am inclined to believe that the Affleck Batman was meant to be the older version of the Kilmer Batman, while Clooney's Batman was actually meant to be the older altered version of Michael Keaton's Batman, which is why Clooney had to look older than Keaton; on the other hand, it was more meant as an end joke than part of the actual timeline thing.

[@ChiTownMade]

I wish the presentation of Cassandra Kane, huntress and black canary was better in birds of prey.

[@TheOutcastKaiju]

You forgot peacemaker show

[@sriramsahu1996]

Now, make another video where Snydercut is Canon... because technically... The Flash takes place in Snyderverse...

[@mellogic]

your time line is messed up, bruce is older than clark, his parents were killed before superman was born

[@Zombiesnyder13]

I hope James Gunn helps DC to take over this decade Because I'm sick of the MCU And I hope that he takes it seriously too, because I'll be damned if it has the same comedic tone of the MCU

[@ocarragher7857]

so does smallville, green arrow, flash, JSA, teen titans not count as cannon or?

[@arsenjovicic5204]

The 2017 justice league was erased by the flash … cool video but the most important thing was messed up in this

[@karelmarcellino3538]

The Looper summarizes the DCEU's story based on the theatrical versions of all the films. So it doesn't concern the Snyder cut and the Peacemaker series here, because those are all story expansions that were dumped onto the HBO MAX streaming service. So please appreciate the exposure this channel has created.

[@NA-bn9er]

Steppenwolf and his crew fighting the ancient war was not canon, that was Whedon's version. The canon version is Darkseid and his crew. Steppenwold wasn't involved yet till JL 2021

[@emzonik8851]

Yeah, the Flash canonised ZSJL

[@NA-bn9er]

@@emzonik8851 the Flash actually screwed that up by going back to 2013 and reshaping what happened, which would make The Flash separate entirely from everything after Man of Steel and not as canon

[@Arlington20082]

You guys are wrong. The Flash references Zack Snyder's Justice League as canon, not Josstice League.

[@doctornico1759]

Good video, but a few things bother me : - you used the Joss Whedon version of Justice League, even though you perfectly know that everybody hates it, instead of the Snyder version, which was canonized by The Flash (the black girl directly mentioned a scene from that specific version) - You didn't mention the past adventures of the Justice Society, which inspired the Justice League, and the mental powers that urge the world to forget about them, and why they split. When all of this has been explained in the Black Adams comics tie in. - You didn't mention how the whole world forgot the worldwide events of Wonder Woman 2 - You didn't mention how Joker and Harley Quinn killing Robin is the main reason why Batman was so nasty in Batman v Superman - You didn't show the origins of Cyborg - You totally forgot the Peacemaker series

[@hogscattle7877]

Rebooting is still a slap in the face to all DC fans. It's pretty hard to have a optimistic outlook on the soon to be GunnVerse

[@NIDELLANEUM]

Someone might ask "... what DC fans?" I mean, ever since Aquaman in 2018, *every* DCEU movie has been a box office bomb. The reason why Shazam still made profit was that it had such a lower budget that its grossing broke even. They rebooted things because they got the hint that *nobody cared about DCEU movies*

[@hogscattle7877]

@@NIDELLANEUM Everyone knows the movie will stream in a month so nobody comes out to the theater. Warner has bad marketing tactics along with a toxic work environment . Aqua man did well at the theaters. Over 1 billion worldwide. Don’t for get the new restrictions after 2020 with releasing movies to the Asian market also affected profit They missed capitalizing on the momentum from the Snyder cut and everything after that was a flop. Also, the fiasco with managing HBOmax which is now MAX
