DC Animated Original Movies Discussion

[Last Son of Krypton]

Oh wait, are they picking up Batman straight from the Long Halloween post-credit scene!?

Crisis part 1 will have the JL becoming an official team. Maybe there's a recap of how we got there?

[Last Son of Krypton]

[Frontier]

Looks like the movie isn't in chronological order, jumping from different points in Barry's timeline.

[Morgoth]

Yep, it's basically Barry's story with some, well, pretty much expected twist.

All just standing around.

NPCs of the DCU. (fun to see Star Sapphire amongst the heroes - I don't see any villains around)

[Primal Slayer]

I'm watching it....

It's definitely Barrys story with Superman/Batman coming in 2nd.

Everyone else is just there to add bodies to the screen.

The fact that they could've focused on each earth for 10min to set up the characters.....

I'm wondering if Part 1 is Flash focused, Part 2 is Supergirl focused, and Part 3 is Superman focused.

Movie has some good stuff, but it's another disjointed tale with highs but also some "multitasking segments," if you know what I mean.

For better or for worse, I think it's one of those movies that requires "homework," i.e. I feel like I need to rewatch some of the other movies in order for me to understand this one better. That would be all well and good if some of the prior movies were more memorable or commanded enough interest to spur rewatches. Overall, not bad, but lacking polish like many other movies in this continuity.

[Morgoth]

It's really weird movie.
Though, as a Flash story, it was actually... Pretty good, which is surprising. spoilers:

DCAMU connection was pretty much expected, I hope sequels will reveal, what exactly happened after Barry reset the timeline and what he and Constantine did to make it crumble.

end of spoilers
Pacing is weird. And, well, it's even cheaper than previous projects. I guess that's why they didn't even bring spoilers:

Matt Ryan for Constantine.

Well, much like Superman: Man of Tomorrow, this movie is pretty boring.

Also, i really, really want a gif of the heroes celebrating at the end. It's like two or three frames, it's hilariously bad.

The only part I found really boring about MoT was the final fight against Parasite.

"Watch Superman get batted around by Parasite and do nothing but lose his powers!"

Although I guess it sounds like this really is the end of the Tomorrow-verse because they've basically been running out of budget for these films .

[Batgrayson]

I wasn't expecting anything, and maybe for that, I really liked it.

It's not really a CoIE movie, it's a

1. Flash movie

-a big gap-


2.A JL origin movie

3.A CoIE movie introduction.

Even Iris and spoilers:

Amazo

end of spoilers are more important that Superman or Batman.

Just like The Death of Superman, I liked CoIE Part 1 for adding a more personal touch to the story, but I also know this could have been better having more previous movies to know better these characters. I mean, this is just Barry's second appearence on this universe (plus the cameo on Long Haloween)

I wonder if spoilers:

Spectre is Hal, but they were voiced by different people

"Watch Superman get batted around by Parasite and do nothing but lose his powers!"

Oh, then you're in for a treat!

[Frontier]

It's kind of funny how they won't do a straightforward Flash movie so we get Flash movies mixed in with other stuff (JL in Flashpoint which was probably the most "Flash" movie), JSA in JSA:WW2, and now CoIE.

Oh, then you're in for a treat!

The only thing more consistent than them turning established heroes into bad guys .
