She does have inside sources. Especially with Warner Brothers. Heck, I think she may have a full-on business relationship with them. They invite her to all their important events. Sometimes they even pay her way. When Injustice 2 was about to come out, WB invited her to a special event for it and they paid just about all of her expenses, including air fare.
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Yeah, I watch her videos semi-regularly and she does seem to have quite a few connections in the biz. She's not always 100% accurate, but I do believe her on this scoop.
Not sure how to feel about it, though. I wish they had shoehorned Flashpoint into a different movie rather than taking the most popular character's, but it could be interesting to see nonetheless. I wonder how this affects Cheetah and other aspects of the movie.
God, I hope she's mistaken with this. I don't see how hijacking this movie to do a soft reboot is in any way a good idea. Focusing on quality self contained movies is all they need to be doing.
IIRC, she didn't exactly take Cavill's side when that whole fiasco was going on either. So it wouldn't surprise me if she has some kind of actual business relationship with them. Plus, she did say she was "sworn to secrecy". If this is an inside source, that would make some sense. But if this is what she's telling us, what is she keeping secret?

It's not about 'deserve' it's about what you believe. And I believe in Love.

A lot of this makes sense.
The world of this movie already looks different from the world we've seen in BvS? Maybe that's because Diana saved Steve and changed everything. They don't even need to explain and lay out all the changes in this movie. Play the long game. Reveal changes in subsequent movies.
If the MCU has taught us anything, it's that the modern audience is willing to sit through multiple movies for a big payoff. All this movie needs to establish is that Diana saved Steve and the world changed. They can flesh out the details later.

I thought it was obvious the Flashpoint mention was mainly them rebooting and not literally Flashpoint itself. However changing an entire movie to put this in is scary in terms of quality. However i'm here for a reboot.
I haven't watched the YouTube videos, but it seems odd to use Wonder Woman to "reboot" the DCEU, potentially wiping Batman and Superman, at least as played by Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill, from existence.
Especially when they have a character like the Flash who is known for his time travelling shenanigans and mishaps and they're purportedly still planning on releasing a Flash movie.
It would seem easiest and more logical to let the Flash do the heavy lifting in creating a "soft" reboot of the DCEU. The film could open with an "older" Flash travelling back in time to a pre-Justice League Flash to let him know that *something* went wrong and that he needs to "fix" the future leading to changes in the timeline, both past and future.
All that typed, I've pretty much given up guessing WB / DC's plan for their films or trying to second guess their logic!
