It's sad, really. The Flash is one of my favourite DC characters, but I just can't summon any kind of enthusiasm for this film. Not after how utterly obnoxious and incompetent I found him to be in Justice League, as well as the overall quality of the DCEU films. When CW Iris has a more impressive feat than he does (the tidal wave) you know there is a problem.
Flash was the only weak link out of the JL hero cast in the end, at least for me. Everyone else I was able to enjoy in some shape or form, tho I went into the movie with little to no expectations for the source material by that point, so that helped. For all of JL’s flaws (Flash being a glaring one), movie was still far more salvageable than what we got in 2016.
They should cancel this film, and go back to the drawing board to do an actual Flash solo/origin film.
But thats the problem with messing up a shared universe. You either have to reboot all of it, or stick with all of it. Case in point- rebooting Flash would mean giving up this massively successful Wonder Woman franchise, which they obviously wont want to do.
Sounds like this movie is going to start filming later this year:

Change of director again if anyones interested:

This film has just become an ongoing joke.
So apparently theyre still sticking with this Flashpoint nonsense:
