So, the running theory on Weasel is that he actually never ate those children. Something else got them, and the town that he was in discovered him and blamed him. Again, this is just a theory, but I feel like that's where his story is going to go
I think he didn't, Weasel is feral and deranged looking but aside from he pouncing at Waller in the start of the episode, we've yet to really see him in a fight or go all 'King Shark', it wouldn't be a stretch to say Weasel was just in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

Fun fact: The Sons of Themeyscira are actually in the comics. However in the comic they actually are the sons of themyscira, who were thrown in the ocean and rescued by Hephaestus when they were born and discovered to be men.
I was very skeptical about the cast list when I heard it was star studded. I've seen a few animated series where their talents don't translate to voice work, but I'm happy to say this cast is really working for me, the voices are a standout whilst also not being overly recognizable as the actor voicing them.
All of them are under appreciated actors & actresses who have been in a lot but never get much of a front and center role compared to other big names. The only exception would maybe be David Harbour who has become more well known now but even before his popularity rose up with Stranger Things he was very overlooked in previous performances he did.
FINALLY. For the first time so many people will be able to jump into a cinematic universe from the big 2 from the beginning. The last time was with Man of Steel, and the internet is very different than it was 11 years ago.
just saw it moments ago, I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. it's abrasive, it's humor is crude, and it's got plenty of over the top violence and action sequences, basically my kind of show. but behind all that is heart and character. looking forward to future episodes.
In a strange twist of fate the DCU now shares it's canon style with the current DC comics. That being "Schrodinger's Canon", all the previous content is simultaneously canon and non-canon until someone mentions it and it solidifies into canon.
It should probably be noted that this was already in the works BEFORE Gunn took the big job (I believe) so yes it's technically the beginning of the DCU but it wasn't at least conceptualized with that in mind. Not sure how far along in production it was before Gunn and Safran were given command of the studio. That said, the world building for what's to come in this universe is fascinating. I'm here for it.
You know I've always been a fan of the Bride of Frankenstein in general. (Even the Fran Drescher one) I guess because my mom kind of show me the Universal Monster movies when I was in like highschool. My favorite Univeral Monster is actually the Invisible Man. But seeing this version of the Bride just blew my mind. To quote Reginald the Koala of Anerican Dad: "I respect this bitch, I love this bitch!" BTWs the actual Bride of Frankenstein's hair color was actually dark red but because it was a black and white movie, people just automatically assume that it was black. Edit: I also wanted to show my mom this because she loves DC movies and shows. Her favorite movies are the Aquaman (mainly because of Jason Momoa) and the Wonderwoman movies but her favorite show are Peacemaker (her favorite member of Suicide Squad), Doom Patrol, and the OG WonderWoman show. When I told her that this show had the Bride of Frankenstein in it, she was like "OK, I'll watch it tomorrow" and then I told her that David Harbour was in it as the Monster she was like "Let's watch it right now!!!!" She likes David Harbour almost as much she likes Jason Momoa. Edit 3: Yes I just told my mom that Jason Momoa is going to be playing Lobo. Well she kind of heard me say, "Fucccck!!!!" because that not who I imagined my favorite character would be played by. I got over it eventually.
I think the best way to think about the DCU Lore Canon question is the same as when disney bought lucasfilm. Everything that came before is now 'Legends' and they can draw from it as they will to tell new stories. that way everything in Suicide Squad and who was there can be more fluid.
I have always been a fan or Eastern European Armoires and this show just wanna go on an armoire tour of Europe someday. They don’t make them of that quality much anymore so I want to experience as many of them as I can 😁😈😈
I'm glad to see everyone seems to be liking this show, but man it really didn't do it for me. I'm hoping I come around to it eventually since I've loved every other James Gunn thing I've seen, but oof, it really bums me out how much I did not like this. I was really looking forward to it, I'm hoping l like the next episodes more.
Meh.. I am not impressed at all. It is the same as the Suicide Squad.. Oh wow.. they aren't human.. big deal, it is the same thing. Same feel. Nothing original here. Same old Gunn stuff. If this is the start of the DCU.. I'm not the target audience I guess.
I'm gonna give it another shot at some point, but i couldnt even make it through the first episode. From the same suicide squad formula, to the janky Invincible-style animation to the "try hard" feel i got when i first started the Harley Quinn cartoon...it just didnt do anything for me..
EVERYONE can watch the Full Length Reaction HERE: blindwave.com/video/creature-commandos-1x01-full/
I can’t believe we are gonna see blind wave react to a whole arc of a cinematic universe, from beginning to end!!!
This seems ominous

I hope they don't wait for digital releases just to react to them on their channel.
@@Braddley05you do know this is a reaction channel right?
They explained whats canon so quickly and seamlessly. Nowhere near as complicated as some made out it would be
So, what's canon? Suicide Squad, The Suicide Squad, and Peacemaker? Is Birds of Prey canon?
It's almost like people overreact about everything 😑

This show just gave me even more faith in Lanterns tv show, hyped!
That it will be crap

Trailer seemed to imply he was trying to save them from a fire but failed and was blamed for directly killing them.
Damn I honestly wished he did but I like this😂
Sorta like john from green mile
I remember reading that Gunn said that one of the episodes has a story that was very sad and depressing, maybe that's it.
I think he didn't, Weasel is feral and deranged looking but aside from he pouncing at Waller in the start of the episode, we've yet to really see him in a fight or go all 'King Shark', it wouldn't be a stretch to say Weasel was just in the wrong place, at the wrong time.
James Gunn definitely has a formula but it’s a formula that works.
even his early work has humor and some dark shit in it.
It’s not gonna be long lasting though

Frank Grillo is also appearing as Rick Flagg, Sr. in Season Two of "Peacemaker" live-action.
I hear Superman as well.
@@DaVeO52 yup there are leaked photos
Rick Flag Sr. is also going to appear in Peacemaker Season 2. Things could get interesting if he learns that Peacemaker is the one who killed his son.
And he'll be in Superman as well!
I smiled during the whole episode. When I saw the phone wallpaper with Zac Efron I LOLed.
If this is the "quality" of the storytelling going forward with DC and the DCU, I'm very excited
Absolutely outstanding start. Can’t wait for next week!
Welcome to the beginning of the DCU.
This show delivered so far, looking forward for the rest of the dcu
Me too.
Cool that the actors doing the voices are also going appear in live action as the characters
Fun fact: The Sons of Themeyscira are actually in the comics. However in the comic they actually are the sons of themyscira, who were thrown in the ocean and rescued by Hephaestus when they were born and discovered to be men.
They are not actually in the comics

Sort of. CC was just a concept he wrote a few weeks before he was hired as head of the studio. The final scripts were always the start of the DCU
What James Gunn is doing with this new DCU, is that he's world building, instead of story building like what Marvel does.
Gi robot is actually hilarious
please drop the second episode soon!!

See what happens when you have a plan of how things are suppose to work out. Definitely intrigued with this show & hope it stays good
I really enjoyed both episodes, James did a great job on this series.
Yay thanks wasn’t expecting it this fast i liked the first 2 episodes excited for the rest of the season
After watching the first two episodes, I'm definitely cautiously optimistic! I've enjoyed the show quite a bit so far.
Technically The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker are part of the new continuity
Love from a Airier and Vaush fan!

Never heard of this show till I saw you guys reacting to it...I quickly watched it and now watching reaction!
Interesting show..I enjoy it so far
Let's go Bocaaaaaaa!!!!!
He did end up being Dick Flag! 😂 Richard (Dick)
5:00 DALE DALE DALE DALE DALE BOCA
Esa música es venezolana
So much fun 🤘🏽💀🤘🏽
Fun fact - Pokol means Hell in Hungarian, so the country would basically be Hell-istan XD
i love gi robot
The Bride speaks the local lingo. I don't think the Queen was mumbling what the Princess said she was mumbling every time.....
God they are reacting to this immediately.
The voice actors will be portraying their live-action versions of their characters as well!
Makes me hope they all survive but wellllll that's not gonna happen
Nice video
Yasss Lets go! ❤
Ay!
Shout out to Viola Davis for returning as Waller. She's great!
9:05 You'll find out. Oh will you find out
If the 40K universe ever kicks off at Amazon and Blind Wave react.Then Eric unfortunately will be left destitute trying to buy all the awesome figures
DAAAAAAALEEEEEEE BOOOOOOOOOCAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Jamie Kennedy is going to be Robin in The Batman Returns.
If I'm right rick flag sr may go after peacemaker since he did killed his son
So is James Gunns Suicide Squad Cannon to the DCU?
Yes
The second I heard Jamie Kennedy’s name, I got 10 times more excited for their reaction lol
@ it was a really out of place joke in the last season of Superman and Lois as well.
I have always been a fan or Eastern European Armoires and this show just wanna go on an armoire tour of Europe someday. They don’t make them of that quality much anymore so I want to experience as many of them as I can 😁😈😈
I was glad to hear Gogol Bordello
You're gonna love episode two. Their best song, plus a CAMEO.
9:48 Nice try, but Basil needs to do a bit more then just the blonde hair and accent to fool me.
🎉🎉🎉🎉
At last they realized it's Rick Flag's dad
Wait I just learned about this, didn't realize some canon DCU would be animated holy shit
The Arrowverse and the DCEU is dead! Long Live the DCU!
Unfortunately in Canada it hasn’t realsed yet hopefully it does soon
Id forget about the Ayer Suicide Squad. Just treat 2021 The Suicide Squad as the start of the events
classic WB not having this show available in the UK this is all i got ffs
He stopped killing Nazis in 1950?
he visited Argentina ig
It's pronounced "Sir-See"
I think they're saying it wrong as a joke
BOCAAAAAAAAA BOOOCAAAAAA

Do you think it's because it's animated or what is it about it you're not enjoying?
I'm liking it a lot but WOW this is a weird start for the DCU.
He was already writing it before he became the new CEO.

and thus perhaps the beginning of the end for DC altogether
I don't know what makes you think that would be the case. DC is in it's most promising spot since like 2016
The end?
This is a glorious beginning and nothing else
these first two episodes have been crap. Lets not forget Gunn`s The Suicide Squad was a massive flop
Nah they don't
if it's not your thing fair enough but don't point out just because The Suicide Squad flopped that makes a difference
