  • The Flash is the DCEU's adaptation of the Flashpoint Comic Book Arc. The Flashpoint Comic Book has been adapted into The Flash TV Show aswell as a Flash Animated Movie "The Flashpoint Paradox" and a recent Live Action Movie "The Flash".
    And in this versus video we are going to take both DC films and see which one did the Flashpoint story arc better.
    This is one of the last DCEU movies before James Gunn and Peter Safran come in with their own new DCU, which will properly start off with Superman Legacy.

    I’m pretty sure they kept his time alteration a secret in The Flashpoint Paradox because as soon as he knows what needs to be fixed, he’ll do it. If he knew what he had to do, but spent the whole movie trying to find a different way of saving the world, it would’ve just felt like a waste of time. His allies would be like, “What are you doing? You’re just wasting time and letting more people die!” It was kinda the same in the comics. But at least in the comics, he went back to talk to his mother before restoring the timeline.
    Flashpoint is still better than Flash 2023, IMO.

  • @thabreez456
    @thabreez456 9 місяців тому +24

    My main problem with the arc in The flash movie is that Barry learns to leave the past alone and not to mess with it because he saw what the timeline became when he tried to save his mom. So he lets his mom die without interfering in the past. But then immediately messes with time to make sure his dad is let off in the present. That single decision angered me to no end.

      And that's why, from an emotional standpoint, the cw adaptation is weirdly the best (I'm only talking from emotional standpoilt, not story or action because that was quite underwhelming considering how short the flashpoint story was). It happens after barry's father dies, which is more impactful than just his appeal being rejected or a taunt. We see him save his mother. And then, to end the flashpoint, he doesn't just have to prevent himself from saving her, he has to let the reverse flash free so that he can kill his mother to bring things back to normal. And he is there while she dies to comfort her

  • @rcbmmines4579
    @rcbmmines4579 9 місяців тому +7

    Don't forget how Flashpoint Paradox actually uses real Flash villains. Professor Zoom/Reverse Flash is the biggest one but there's the Rogues in the beginning too. I also disagree that he he doesn't have an emotional arc. It's not as prominent but it's there with the flashbacks to his mother and the lesson he needed to learn. It unfortunately didn't keep the scene from the comic where he says goodbye to his mother. Otherwise, the impact of the altered timeline and everyone else was better too.
    Also, yeah the CW show, while becoming worse over time, did do a lot of what the film did but better. Barry's emotional arc with his mother, having an alternate evil future self created from Flashpoint (Savitar), and the Multiverse.

There was really one scene I thought was missing involving an interaction between (POTENTIAL SPOILERS) Barry and his mother at the end.

    In terms of Barry's mom death in the movie we never actually know if he saved his actual mother in his original timeline he just creates a new one with a completely different backstory and Barry so reverse flash could have still killed his mom. For the villains I think the movie takes it cause it makes more sense and feels more deeper related to the flash himself as making him the villain.

I'd put those three either on par if not above Flashpoint Paradox for sure. Speaking of, all three of them would be good in VS videos since they have a lot of similar counterparts. Specifically: Death and Return vs Superman Doomsday vs BvS, Man of Tomorrow vs Man of Steel and The Batman vs The Long Halloween.

    I was not expecting this video to go down the way it did. Color me surprised. While I enjoyed The Flash slightly less than you did (the closing moments of the film + it's post credits scene really soured my love for the story), I thought it was creatively directed, superbly acted and surprisingly emotional. The movie perfectly encapsulated what the DCEU could've been under proper guidance and it was glorious, albeit short-lived.

    There’s a lot of things you said about both movies I was hoping for. I think they should’ve delayed the whole movie, Blue Beetle and Aquaman 2 just to let everyone calm down about everything in DC. I’m surprised that you didn’t use music from either movies. Well, the soundtracks from both movies are pretty quiet. Even on a loud volume. Lol. But if The Flash was given more time, and Walter Hamada had an intelligence behind his universe, despite the flaws, it would’ve been a better experience. I didn’t want the Flash to be a Copy and Paste of Flashpoint Paradox because I wanted it to do its own thing. But with Henry Cavill Fired and all his scenes were cut from the movie, we don’t have a movie that can give a goodbye to him. Ben Affleck’s suit looked kinda cool in concept, but I wish the costume designers had a better execution to the costume. The new Keaton Suit was a revolutionary design over the course of 30 years. But if more members of the league were in the movie, then I think it should’ve been a Justice League movie, but in Barry’s perspective and his side of the story. Like Paradox movie. And the last great DC animated movie I loved was Gods and Monsters animated movie. Thanks for setting it all straight for us Eric! If only more people would listen to you!

      Hey buddy. No I haven't seen the movie yet. It was originally intended to be a streaming movie so I will watch it once it hits streaming.
      As for the character himself, I REALLY enjoyed him in Young Justice Season 2.
      Going by the trailer though, it's a shame that the movie doesn't seem to be following that.

    My issue with the flash movie is that Berry didn’t learn his lesson which was suppose to be that messing with the time line even something simple like moving the can of tomatoes isn’t worth it. But in the end he still messed with the time line by again moving the tomatoes. I would have liked him to actually let things happen hope they are suppose to. And focus on finding the actual killer.

I myself tried to do a versus video like this just for fun, but damn, it's not easy and I gave up. In that regard, you are great. Also, I like how you focus more quality over quantity, whereas other film critics out there just release videos for the sake of releasing them, you take time to analyse the movies and make these amazing videos.
