The 42cast Episode 197: Flash Burns
Manage episode 408739258 series 1341211
The Flash film was announced back in 2014. Originally slated to release early in 2018 many were impressed at DC’s confidence in announcing so many films so far in the future. Over the the intervening decade, The Flash production would be placed on hold multiple times as the script faced an almost infinite amount of rewrites, directors came and went, and various reshoots occurred. Eventually, the film finally saw the light of day in June of 2023. In this episode we take a deep dive on the Flash film. We discuss the plot, the adaptation of Flashpoint, and how it uses the established DCEU mythology and the Batman ’89 legacy. We also talk about the controversies around Ezra Miller and how that was juxtaposed against hype for Michael Keaton. We also get into how all this stacked against the upcoming DCU and why we think this movie flopped as greatly as it did.
Due to time constraints this episode does not have a five-minute controversy.
This week Ryan; Daviorr; Nate; and the World’s Foremost Flash Fan, Shaun, join the cast.
Show Notes:
Michael Keaton 10 appearances as Batman announcement article
Tom Cruise Flash Praise
