[@kenm.a.d.7196]

Kind of sucks to get invested in a whole universe just for everyone to die and get erased in the end…

[@bennymac6618]

Yeah I am in the middle of realizing that is the ending after watching all of them in order, shit kind of pisses me off

[@chriskraucunas8720]

All stories must end for new ones to be told. It's sort of like, "If you don't come back you haven't gone to get ice cream. You've just gone to where the ice cream is."

[@kenm.a.d.7196]

@@bennymac6618 Damn, yeah that sucks.

[@nathaliaquintero4498]

For me, I'm just gonna imagine that after Constantine told flash to go for it for one last time so the timeline can be fixed, I know is not like that but that make me feel better 😢😭😭

[@UCeddWhat]

Well thats where the the tomorrowverse comes into play…. its a completely new timeline

[@khumarchauhan1231]

Dude the fact that we could have had something like this in live action with the Snyderverse is something I can honestly never forgive. Sure it would have been a dark ending but I honestly believe that it would have cemented it as one of the greatest franchises ever

[@tylerharris4392]

You overate synder

[@Cantthinkofname-rp3iw]

It woulda been shit

[@cooleybeboolin]

This in live action would’ve been game changing.

[@mandarinduck]

I dunno man, I feel like Snyder was going in a different direction. You can see the differences when they cover similar territory. Death of Superman was such a good movie and it really hits hard. The fight with Doomsday in that movie had such higher stakes, with Superman trying to save people while stopping the monster at the same time because he's the only one who can. And then the ending, when Ma and Pa Kent aren't even allowed to attend his funeral? Heartbreaking. Meanwhile BvS's Doomsday battle was a big CGI slam fest on an abandoned island.

[@thegamersconclave8709]

DC is well known for Bittersweet Endings. Yeah, the good guys win, but at what cost?

[@Makaveli5136]

I loved this new 52 version of dc animated! To me this was on par with the MCU! I wish it didn’t end!😢

[@jitroglennwcmandagi]

The New 52 ending is a paving way to Rebirth.

[@T_janie]

DC Animation were in their bag when they made these movies. But they struggle to replicate the same quality in their live action movies😢

[@jay2k965]

so deep in their bag I miss it🫤🫤

[@gameratwork2143]

I dont care what movie is best. It always tugs on my heartstrings to see raven and Damian fall in love over the course of these movies

[@saffronjuice]

I feel like the flashpoint paradox is still probably the best movie of them. But i really enjoyed SS:Hell to Pay. Somehow I missed all the Constantine stories (not a fan of the dark magic stuff) and seems he played a big role

[@justinsterling1of1]

his role was massive throughout the whole thing. all the apocalypse war stuff was single handedly a direct consequence of all of john constantines sins / personal choices.

[@cooleybeboolin]

I held off on Constantine too thinking that it wouldn’t be that good and I came to regret it, I enjoyed them more than most of the other ones.

[@assassinmaya8286]

I don't know for many of you but for me this line of DC animated cinema is not over. Seriously, I don't want to get into any kind of popular debate, but this universe left a lot of things that didn't end up being resolved. And, honestly, a certain ending they gave it was more clearly seen as a kind of purge unfairly set up with the intention of using it as an excuse to reassemble a new universe that would give them more money and bigger profits from, what we could call: fan interest. An interest that would drive the fans crazy; those who were completely unaware of DC animation, and would guarantee them more fans who didn't bother to see a single installment of this universe, and after seeing a new movie (Superman man of tomorrow) would open up a new wave of fanboy madness that would bring them more hype and less numbers in low sales and interest. Especially, the kids. Well, I don't think it's working. Because the new universe is NOT bringing much hype at all, and truth be told, eliminating this universe was the worst decision they made in the entire history of superhero animated entertainment. There may be those who like the new DC Animation installments, but you have to see the reality of things to bring awareness and understanding to the terrible thing that is happening with these movies. Phil Bourassa should not have been fired. His proposals and his designs are unique, and enriched all of DC Animation. They need to bring him back. There's a reason Kevin Feige has always said, "Don't fix what's done right."

[@joshwells7752]

Yeah I was not a fan of how they ended the new 52 universe and when are they going to start the new universe and what is it going to be called

[@BasaltLeone]

I totally agree with you

[@alijahguerra7022]

@@joshwells7752 it’s called the Tomorrow Universe

[@SpartanS1ayer195]

Isn't the tomorrow verse movies a continuation?

[@apothecide.1]

Phil Bourassa was fired? When did that happen? Anyway, that explains the inconsistent art style shift after Justice League Dark

[@NiceLegitContent]

I rewatch the entire series of these movies nd bro great animation, amazing story lines, great character choices, the voice acting was on point; my favorite voice actor was for captain boomerang; and the final Justice league movie the ending had me sad but in a good way.

[@drazoblacko]

I hope they come back to this, legendary era

[@UCeddWhat]

Did you see how they were at the end? Shit was depressing lol they’re long gone 😂

[@Mr.Z2011]

What I really wished for was a Red Hood film right after Teen Titans the Judas Contract, if they put Robin (Damian) and Nightwing then why not Red Hood. I’d just imagine what Jason would look like in this universe plus he would help a lot in Justice League Dark Apokolips War. Maybe even in Judas Contract, to make the film more lengthy Nightwing would’ve actually gotten shot and Red Hood picked him up, talked with him, and when the Titans were losing to Brother Blood, Nightwing and Red Hood would make an entrance and save the day

[@jitroglennwcmandagi]

The original timeline in comics is called "New Earth", then came the "Flashpoint" timeline, and later the DCAMU universe or in comics are called "Prime Earth".

[@ajtoofly7315]

The biggest crime with all these movies is that they are no longer all on one platform so you can’t watch all the “New 52” movies in the same place, in order, and mainly FOR FREE.

[@ivanbluecool]

I really liked the dark apokolips timeline for the most part. Sure it wasn't perfect as a few plotlines just dropped like a rock and some of the major enemies get killed off screen like joker and Amanda waller but overall it's a fun ride Wish we got some cartoon episodes in between as we needed it with wonder girl and super boy not having any development after their movie or at all and

[@jxyvsn5630]

I agree same with kid flash they only showed him twice. one in a flash back in the judas contract where he was white and then the one in dark apollo ops war where he was black. We know nothing about the character at all

[@swampfireian41]

@@jxyvsn5630Those are two separate Kid Flashes.

[@jxyvsn5630]

@@swampfireian41 oh still wish they would’ve gave some background information

[@ivanbluecool]

Dcau with justice league unlimited has one of the most tight timelines of them all. All the cartoons remembering small details from batman tas superman tas all the way to batman beyond was incredible to see. From lex getting shot by brainiac to Hamiltons betrayal all being set up years in advance. Season 2 of jlu with the Cadmus arc is the best one where everything comes together. The movies are probably the only thing I don't enjoy as those plotlines need more than an hour and a half to flesh out especially meggan who just appears while martian manhunter was said to be the last martian and their enemies aren't white martians in that universe

[@J__T]

I'm actually really interested in Original Timeline Batman because it doesn't seem that he has a Robin since Flash doesn't bring up the idea to Thomas Wayne yet this OT Batman wears blue which you'd think he would only wear if he had or has a Robin. Makes me wonder why they chose a different uniform color instead of just a different design. We will likely never get this version of Batman despite Tomorrowverse's Crisis movies; I still find myself being really interested.

[@GabrielRodriguez-ey7kt]

I liked most of the movies. They did leave alot unanswered but i guess they left it that way cuz they felt like the fans could fill in the blanks ourselves. The tomorrowverse has been ok so far. I missed the supergirl movie though. But even that universe is still leaving alot out

[@J0sh00]

Thanks so much for this list and vid

[@Peachymommy2004]

good to have you back.

[@bobjones828]

Great video and welcome back. You should do an evolution of Red Hood or the Death of Superman

[@moviehoarder8382]

My favorite DC Animated Movies so far are: Son Of Batman, Batman Vs Robin, Batman: Bad Blood, Batman Hush, The Death Of Superman and Reign Of The Supermen!!!

[@RareRacks]

Basically anything with damian

[@ajmene]

​@@RareRackswell he didnt mention titans and apocalypse war so

Man this Movie Universe was shorter than my entire High School career. Funny how Wonder Woman finally got her own film literally RIGHT before the damn reset.

Great video man. Long live DC.

[@GabrielOlivares123]

They really like the Batman side with these animated movies. 😅☺👌🦇

[@HectorLugo]

I like the current style, but the most recent movie clearly had a very cut budget because there was little by way of facial animation. Super Sons looked great.

[@DeathByZombieGames]

Flashpoint is 100% my favorite by far

[@knightfall5125]

Why DC animated is so good than their live action counterpart. Same goes for Marvel, their live action movies are good (Infinity Saga) than their animated movies.

[@AAAshield]

It’s so surprising every movie in that universe was good

[@Godlinegamingstudios]

Can you make an updated version with the new Crysis on infinite earths

[@moviehoarder8382]

Justice League: Apocalypse War is also my favorite!!!

[@gamechaser94]

They should play these in theaters

[@fathi6313]

I love your video renash😎 this video is make me so much nostalgic

Thanks, much appreciated 🙏

[@moviehoarder8382]

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox is also my favorite!!!

[@ItsjustLuka]

IT WAS ME BARRY

[@waheedabdullah6371]

After seeing the Scooby-Doo and Krypto Too movie that got leaked online, can your next poll be an evolution of either Krypto, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, Lex Luthor, Solomon Grundy, or Green Kryptonite?

[@user-dm8se5vk1s]

I know that everyone wants a live action of these movies but I think the DC animated universe is just perfect I don't think it needs to be turned into a live action.

[@nevillebatomene]

Will you make a video about the evolution of the Tomorrowverse

[@thetcgpulse]

All those movies just to lose in the end….

[@Minetic]

While some of these movies were misses, I enjoyed this universe (way more than the live action)

[@stupidcat9591]

awesome

[@Idonotlikepeanutbutter832]

I saw Legion of Superheroes 2023 Movie and thought what if you made a poll to include an evolution of Supergirl, Braniac, S.T.A.R. Labs, or Kryptonite?

[@StopSpiderMan]

I watched Batman: The Doom That Came to Gotham; and maybe you could do an evolution of either Green Arrow, Commissioner Gordon, Two-Face, or Jason Blood/Etrigan the Demon Maybe you could also do an evolution of Batman having superpowers or Batman Transformations

[@user-so1lg7rb2h]

So no one gonna ask if justice league war really took place months before or years before because they would’ve known about Batman and everyone of the titans had been together for years

[@cookiedrak3]

OLD IS GOLD 🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@anythinganytime4321]

And i just realized i have watched shit ton of DCAMU MOVIES i mean i have watched all of these movies and want more

[@obrikidivine7973]

Can’t imagine 13:50 the pain reverse flash has to go through by vibrating his particles constantly

[@priam2882]

So is Young Justice the new timeline or the original timeline

[@MyNameBeeKayy]

I was today years old when i realized Crisis on Infinite Earths Pt 2 will be DC's "New 52" official animated universe installatment. Trippy 😅😊

[@UCeddWhat]

*sigh* I miss it

[@Jay-yv3pu]

Im pretty sure the 'universe' at the end of house of mysters is the anti monitor

[@tuievans]

I think the best movies in my opinion are JL War, Throne of Atlantis & Son of Batman. I thought flashpoint was kinda less of a justice league movie and more of a Flash movie. And Dark Apokolips War was good but hurt to watch cause of how fucking dark the movie was.

[@thebeatlesloveisallyouneed]

the Justice League cartoon universe was the best! But to be honest this DC animated universe could definitely rival it and the live action marvel movies! Batman voice actor in Justice League was the best but for the first time since Justice League, these animated DC movies got it just about perfect with Batman again! Voice acting is amazing in this DC cartoon universe! If only they still continued it!

[@Infamously_]

It was me Barryyy

[@princetristinlee8315]

The wrong date for flashpoint because it says it released 2016

[@desiderium3243]

Honestly, I think apocalypse war or WW bloodlines was the best in my opinion. Kind of hard to pick favorites because they all have their little role in the series, but I think it’s kind of a complicated timeline to follow because it’s not really a timeline. It’s three.

[@valeriemandallaz341]

Flashpoint paradox and apocalypse war

[@NM-io3bk]

One thing I’ve been wondering is does this mean Constantine is dead dead or is it possible he can come back? I also wasn’t sure if what consumed him was the anti monitor and that a crisis is coming or not

[@Vindog962]

Vc

[@CinemaSongscovers]

The only thing I don't like about Flashpoint Paradox is how none of the heroes, aside from Flash, look the same as the rest of the series. You could argue that it's the different timelines, but I think that's pushing it.

[@Prince_171]

Yeah, i agree

[@Its_Random123]

Hey I have 2 questions. First is what happened to John in the final movie after the universe price thingy? And second is the tomorrowverse a direct recreation of the DCAMU like you know the new timeline or universe flash created after the second flashpoint?

[@UncannyBeagle]

My takeaway was that Constantine is now in like eternal damnation or something like that. As for the Tomorrowverse, I think it's a new timeline, because I don't remember Man of Tomorrow having any similarities to the DCAU.

[@GabrielRodriguez-ey7kt]

When did Nightwing and robin come out?

[@Hawty_Hans]

Man I just knew that this all had a timeline and correct watch order I mostly just had a feeling about it that's why I haven't seen almost any of these cuz it feels weird to just watch one and not the rest of them and definitely not in order

[@oliverlangrall2014]

I've seen them all and I don't think you need to see them in order. All the stories are pretty much self contained.

[@akiraevangelionultimateali5199]

1:18 better CGI than the flash, live action 2023

[@akiraevangelionultimateali5199]

I would’ve liked to see forever evil get adapted so he can wheeled the yellow Lantern ring

[@KR-P]

Death of Superman chef kiss 👌

[@voi8169]

That's why I like flash

[@dustinmeehan5810]

Alright almost time! 1:10 left!

[@DarthKamui]

Everyone knows/thinks that the Tomorrowverse is just the rebooted DCAMU, but there's actually no evidence to support this. Nothing in-universe has even hinted to this and nobody involved in the making of the films have confirmed this to be true. For now, the Tomorrowverse should just be considered a newer continuity succeeding the original DCAMU.

[@DarthKamui]

@@ColdShoulder131 What part specifically? I re-watched it and it's the same until the very end.

[@chriskraucunas8720]

Ummm. That IS a rebooted universe. "Time Boom, Barry. All those ripples, expanding from whatever you changed." Though personally, I like to think that Barry accidentally stuck them all in a recursive temporal loop, spanning from FPP to JLDAW over and over an you get the idea. Perhaps a future Elseworlds movie could revisit it a la S:TNGs episode 'Cause and Effect'.

[@DarthKamui]

@@chriskraucunas8720 I meant that the Tomorrowverse hasn't officially been indicated to be the second Flashpoint that Barry created.

[@chriskraucunas8720]

@DarthBetton that's just it though, it doesn't need to be official. The DCAMU is finished, and Tomorrowverse is what we have now. For better or for worse.

[@whatevervideos3716]

​@DarthBetton, it is if you've seen the constantine short movie house of Mystery

[@andrewe.8321]

See, I like this, but I’d also like to see a return to form. I like classic the Batman and Superman adventures, so it’d be good to see more contained stories.

[@Leo-hf9wo]

Best looking animated verse, with what we have right now young justice has better animation

[@samanthamorris9369]

My favorite Son of Batman Batman vs Robin Batman bad blood Nightwing and Robin short clip

[@Arceus4k]

So everytime flash makes a new timeline what happens to the previous?

Justice League Dark was my favorite, this overall was my favorite timeline, I don't like the 1950s style of the tomorrowverse

[@decembrys]

why there is no RED Hood ?

[@parkpix9230]

My headcanon is that the original timeline was the New 52 timeline.

[@joadarium9605]

Since Young Justice technically is a part of this universe, where does it fit?

Ah i didn't know that, thx@@Renash30videos

[@jonjonboi3701]

I think justice league crisis on two earths and justice league doom take place before flashpoint so it is part of the DCAMU

Nope! This was the correct order stated by the directors & animators (look it up)
