Though the movie has favorable reviews, it seems WB is struggling to capitalize on DC fans. Perhaps, betraying the fact that DC fans support the DC Universe but only Snyder fans actually watch the movies.
Nonetheless, we think the marketing and Ezra Miller’s legal issues doomed the movie. Moreover, the fact that the movie adapts the fans’ favorite Flashpoint in recent years in order to unimpressively reboot its universe instead of as part of an over-arching story does not work.
Perhaps, shared universes worked for Marvel because Marvel heroes for the most part live either in New York or in space and have well-defined universes. For DC heroes, the characters are so big that having them align with each other and so powerful only works with a very overwhelming threat like Darkseid in Final Crisis.
Marvel heroes are for entertainment and pop corn, but DC heroes are archetypes that raise philosophical questions. Certainly, we must say that the DC Universe cannot follow Marvel’s shared universe formula without first introducing the multiverse. Perhaps, Flash of Two Worlds would have worked better.
