I honestly don't see how it'll absolutely flop though.
Its got Keaton's return going for it...something that'll even bring casual movie-goers back.
Its a Flash movie...a character who general audiences are well aware of thanks to the JL movie(s), the cartoons and the CW show. The Flash is arguably better established in the popular consciousness now than Aquaman was before his movie (jokes and memes notwithstanding).
Everyone will know its about the multiverse and alternate realities, an idea which is now gaining mainstream traction (not least because Marvel is going to be pursuing it as well).
Granted, if the definition of a 'flop' is a superhero film making under a billion, then yeah, I guess it could flop...
If it flops
Gal gadot and mamoa’s trilogy’s will be concluded
The breaks will be slammed on everything
And they will be a truckload of money waiting outside of Coates and Matt reeves house to repurpose their respective movies to be the new DCEU with suicide squad as the only survivor of the canon purge

If it flops than Reeve's Batman-verse becomes the mainstream movie-verse. So depending on how badly you want that may decide whether or not you see this movie. I see the current DCEU ending anyway without a Batman and Cavill's return looking less and less likely.

For when my rants on the forums just aren’t enough: https://thevindicativevordan.tumblr.com/
I don't know what universe this Supergirl is from or where she ends up, but if WB as any sense of planning, she'll share a verse with this new Leslie Grace Batgirl they just casted.
I do not want that ~ I am excited for The Batman and don't want to see it muddled to make a new shared cinematic universe. Just give me a nice Batman trilogy that's separate from everything like the Nolan films were.
I also want the same from Superman. Really just...the MCU has the universe angle covered, DC can just do good not-a-universe movies.
I don't get how DC keeps screwing up the whole shared universe thing so badly.

Because they'd be forcing a shared universe onto a film trilogy that was designed and intended to stand alone. Because WB powers that be are incompetent. Because experience basically points to that being the most likely outcome.
It's the same reason why we got off pretty lucky that MoS and the DCEU wasn't tacked on to Nolan's The Dark Knight trilogy.
