Do you think it´s possible that this version of Batman is (just like in the comic) actually Thomas Wayne? Keaton acts mysterious every time they call him Bruce but stops short of actually correcting them, and I noticed that when he touches the pictures, he very specifically traces over the forms of the mother AND the son, leaving out the father....

You also didn't catch when Barry & Barry are going down to the batcave, the little musical score is the same whimsical notes from The Goonies when they're exploring caverns, find the bottom of the well and just as Mikey walks through the water. While the scores are different in each movie, at these points, you hear a series of notes and it's these same notes in each movie. I can only imagine Muschietti having watched The Goonies countless times in his life and probably again several more times in looking for inspiration for IT Chapter 1.

[@yudhazacharias9377]

​​​@@silverloveguns barry talked to Bruce about how he first time travel was on Pozharnov, a Russian abandoned city where Steppenwolf set up the motherboxes in ZSJL.. Barry said he went back just for 1 second, and in this movie he went back for a full day

​@@silverlovegunsBarry's initial pitch to Affleck's Bruce. Bruce says Barry isn't capable to go back, and Barrg mentions when he reversed the moment the motherbox trinity formed in the Russian city during JUSTICE LEAGUE. The only version Barry ever reverses the trinity is in Zack's version of the film.

[@yudhazacharias9377]

​@@silverlovegunsYes it does, brother. You see that Aquaman cameo in the Chronobowl? Aquaman is pointing at Barry. That happened in the Snyder cut, when Barry tripped and collided with Aquaman. Secondly, this movie establishes that Barry can't speed people away, and the Snyder cut established the same thing

​@@silverlovegunsDon't be so sure of your self.

[@michaeldipaola1313]

He’s not untangling them, he was tangling them to prevent them from falling in the water.

[@mrf.7528]

The tooth falling was symbolic, for the mistake Barry made (the timeline), but instead of accepting it he tried to super-glue it (find a quick solution), and of course that would not work. So it fell when we, along with Barry, realized that the timeline was not right, and the mistake was not really fixed. Just a clever detail that worked both as a gag and a symbolic thing

[@TTSFabrication]

There’s no way anyone else than Reverse Flash killed Nora. Even if it wasn’t shown, just like a Spider-Man’s spider bite.

[@joaobueno450]

Don’t know if that comparison makes sense, Barry’s origins had nothing to do with his parents’ death or Reverse for decades. It was a retcon made in like, mid-to-late 2000s. Lots of stories told without it

[@kadegetslaid634]

Not at all, Barry's parents didn't even die until very recently in the comics

[@whitegenome22]

​@João Bueno what was his origins back then?

[@generalilbis]

​@whitegenome22 Similar to how the 90s TV series handled it and how the Arrowverse Flash series hinted at the OG timeline that Thawne meddled with: Barry was still a CSI that was working in the police lab when a lightning strike caused an accident that doused him in chemicals and electrified him simultaneously....but his parents were still alive and in his life.

[@thiswontworkatall]

Bruce's hands aren't bruised from crime-fighting, he's long given that up since Gotham is one of the safest cities in the world. It's paint from his paintings that Barry comments on as he walks through the living room of Bruce's mansion.

[@isaacbeeks4637]

@@dandreelovelace6969Which was a good choice, Pattinson is the best Batman we’ve had for a very long time.

[@Sam-hp4hb]

My biggest complaint about the film (other than the weird choices with cgi) is how it doesn’t seem like Barry didn’t learn from his mistake of changing the past. He goes back and removes the tomatos from his moms cart but then changes the location of them on the shelf WHICH STILL is a change in the past that affects his timeline. Like everything had led up to him making the choice to let his mom die to restore the true timeline but then decides to change it again anyway. It just doesn’t sit right with me

[@phoenixfunny4517]

It was a subtle change that would result in most of history being the same until Wayne tech could fix the distorted footage to reveal what they couldn't decades earlier. While it still changes it, it does so in a way that would keep most of his past the same

[@VogtTD]

No. The change isn't noticed until the present, so it only changes events from the present forward.

0:35 Actually, the film opens by taking us through an evolution of the WB and DC logos through history. Like the opening of Back to the Future 3 with the Universal Logos.

I think the “ bruised fingers “ is actually paint. Because you can see he had several paintings inside the Wayne manor. He accomplished and had saved his city as Batman in his versions Gotham, so him training that hard wouldn’t make sense at all. - Brainstorming.

George Clooney can be a great Batman if he gets a good script.

[@PermanentHigh]

I agree

[@lionshistoryandgeography]

Assuming he’s coming back

[@Kiobas99]

me and my friend have this back and forward thing of gifting meme stuff from Nic Cage on our birthdays, so seeing him in Theater had us crying in laughter

[@theworm7156]

10:41 when I saw that, I was thinking of peter b’s line from spider verse: “It’s not about saving a city, it’s about saving one person”

[@4hotpink10]

that was even in the Josstice League when he didn’t know what to do, Batman told him to save one person

[@rickybalmain8854]

I think Barry losing his powers would have been a nice way to bring static shock into the story line

I kinda dislike how dark flash died exactly the same as the Reverse Flash in the CW Flash season 1.

How else was he going to be stopped nd it’s not like that’s not a thing in the comics nd just in the flash cw

Savitar is a time remnant that Barry created. Dark flash is young Barry gone insane

This movie was so good. I went to HS with "Gary", Sean Rogers. Honestly cant believe he was cast for a movie of this caliber. So happy to see he made it in Hollywood. Congrats Sean!!

23:35 the tooth that falls out here isn't the tooth that he lost in the scene where young Barry gets powers. his left tooth gets knocked out, but in the end his right one falls out um nevermind guys🙄

[@k3rmithydahfrog]

He was looking at a mirror dummy when he glued the tooth back on so he’s it was that scene when he got his powers

Something I had to Google because I saw him thanked in the credits... the person young Barry steals food from when he 1st tries out his speed powers was Nicholaj Coster-Waldau.

Been waiting for this!!!!!

[@Enterthedarkness23]

It was very clever writing for Batman in this movie. Every action that's changed in a timeline causes a different Batman to appear. Affleck ---> Keaton -----> Clooney.

[@hasunkhan]

This movie with its flaws was still great but I wish Keaton's Batman had been tweaked a bit. Him dying under such easily avoidable circumstances made no sense. He's been batman longer than any other batman we've ever met so either he's completely forgotten any of the bouts he's had in the past or was just seeking out an excuse to die. Batman is supposed to be the strongest strategist in the justice league so for him to be so shortsighted didn't make sense. My second tweak would be to play up the parental role Batman represents. He has moments where he feeds barry instead of himself, shields Barry after he's been shot, holds the hatch open for everyone else before himself (nearly dying) - this should drive home that this batman has a warm heart even with all that he's lost. I would have Keaton's batman start from a place of even deeper disillusionment and apathy. Keaton's batman should instead always die because he chooses to save Barry over anything else including maybe showing an empathic understanding of dark flash.

[@VogtTD]

This is a different Batman and there was no Justice League in that timeline.

[@tchaikovskychampion7929]

Right!!

[@rapidzmyrapidz]

He had no prep time

[@Awedanansi]

How is no one talking about the moment flash 1 gets his powers back because flash 2 touches him giving him his direct connection to the speedforce again??!?!?!

[@ms.bubs4fun506]

It was like Michaelangelo’s God and Adam painting

[@Real_DvD]

I think grant gustin (the tv flash) actually did that once, somewhere in season 2 he did it

[@christophblak7330]

There’s a Mars Attacks poster on Barry’s wall. Mars Attacks was directed by Tim Burton.

[@jessejfr3723]

His hands aren’t bruised, it’s oil paint 🖌️

[@3n3r-g14]

I think that the explanation of how the timeline and branches work in this movie is probably one of the best explanations for it…because the more and more you think about it…it just makes a lot more sense…it’s like they took what the MCU did but made it different but a lot more interesting

I liked the movie. Some of the things people had a problem with, I really didn’t have a problem with, or as much. I was entertained from beginning to end. I thought it was an 8/10 film 🤙

[@TobyFoxOkay]

I legit thought it was Savitar at first time dark flash was on screen, I was losing it in the cinema lmao

[@nicholasfalzone2104]

Another nod to the ‘89 Batman was when both Barry’s ask Bruce if he wants to join their team and Bruce passes. I think it was young Barry that asks, while slamming the spaghetti down his throat, “Pass? Like pass the salt?” Just like how Vicki Vale ask, shouting if Bruce could pass the salt in the room that Bruce has never been in. Both Barry’s also visit that same room too.
