It was good to hear mike booth ninja again. Although he was a bit left and right in guards to trailers. If they don’t spoil you or effect your wanting to see a film then why look at the ground in the theatre. Maybe trailers effect your movie watching experience, hull catching ironman in the avengers trailer perhaps.
I think I said it, I am not sure why I am not watching trailers because it never negatively impacted a movie experience for me. But It has made movies more enjoyable, nothing has been spoiled for me and all I have is excitement for up coming movies instead of picking apart trailers and getting angry over this or that, but I don’t tend to do that either, lol. I am not sure why I am not watching trailers, maybe simply for the challenge?

The Flash movie will most likely follow a lot of The Rebirth comic mixed in with some of the original Barry Allen origin. The show is already doing that to a point so they may end up telling very similar stories. Flashpiont would make a better sequel than a first movie though. You need to establish the lore and origin of the new cinematic Flash first before you get to having a movie about an alternate Earth.
I could see that.
Possibly, like I said I am not too familiar with Flash stories that would make for compelling movies other than Flashpoint. Also I didn’t think Flashpoint was about alternate earths (keep in mid I have only seen the animated Flashpoint Paradox and loved it) so much as it was about time lines ala Marty losing the Almanac in BTTF2.
But I digress, a few reasons I suggest Flashpoint,
1: the cast is pretty much complete
2: Flash is rumored to be in Batman V Superman, though just a cameo, so fans will know the character
3: DC seems to be going with a lived in world rather than doing origin tales which I think is great, only evidence of this is their treatment of batman characters (A Robin is dead and Commissioner Gordon is also dead, I personally also think Lex Luthor Sr is also dead)
4: The Flash is coming after Batman V Superman and after Justice League Part 1 so they could do Flashpoint since audiences will again know who he is.
5: While Suicide Squad has been confirmed to take place between Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, it’s obviously hitting theaters AFTER BvS so WB clearly doesn’t mind releasing movies out of order. My guess there will be some lines here or there that places the movies chronologically but ultimately they will be movies unto themselves.
But mostly I just want to see a live action Flashpoint Paradox because Jeffery Dean Morgan as Thomas Wayne? COME ON MAN!!!
Based on a lot of the released on Wonder Woman I am not positive that is not your typical origin story or at least relies a lot on flashbacks.
JDM as Thomas Wayne would be great. The issue with that though is the aging doesn’t work. Affleck is already playing a rather old Batman so Thomas Wayne would have to be REALLY old for the Flashpoint story. Also JDM is only six years older than Affleck and based on what we have seen on him in the trailers he appears to be playing his normal age. Yes you could have Flash show up earlier in time so Thomas Wayne would be younger. Then how do you bring in other characters who would now be too young.
The simplest action is just to age JDM. It could be done. I’ll let hollywood work out the details, lol. They aged his up fairly well in the Watchmen if I recall correctly.
I mean it wouldn’t be the most unrealistic thing to happen. There is a line or two you could throw out to make it work. I was pointing the age out more so to show if Flashpiont is the plan I don’t know if the plan is to make JDM Thomas Wayne. I could be wrong. Or they could have no idea what they are going to do at this point and just do a Fox X-Men and make things up as they go no matter how little it makes sense. Oh this character died. No he didn’t. And that’s the end of that story. And with time travel all bets are off.
You make a great points. I would LOVE to see it happen and LOVE to see Jeffery Dean Morgan as Thomas Wayne Batman. I mean how many actors can pull off Negan and Batman.
