The Flash (Andy Muschietti, June 16, 2023) Movie • Page 9

@Zilla are you able to comment on whether or not there is a really gross deepfake cameo of a dead actor? There was talk of that recently that grossed me out; hope it was actually just archive footage (or bullshit) instead of deepfake.

 

In the context of it, it didn’t really gross me out. It came off to me as archival footage like with Leia in “Rogue One.” I think the most offensive part is the CGI for it is atrocious.

 

Was Leia in Rogue One archival footage? I don't think that she was?

 

Oh yeah. You’re right. It’s like a CGI rendering with his face on a CG body. I don’t recall him saying anything. He’s literally there for like 15 seconds. It’s not like he’s an actual character. It’s a cameo as it explores the other realities intersecting.

 

Ehhhhhh.

 

did they show the complete version of the film?

 

As far as I know, they did. It felt pretty complete. But guess I won’t really know until next week.

 

i want to assume you’re right, seeing as there are already reviews out there. but it’s also screening again on tuesdayish

 

this has its ups and downs but i guess i lean towards liking it. could’ve been a lot better without it being cameo city at multiple points, or if it lost 20 minutes give or take. ezra is solid but it’s not like they’re the only one who could pull this character off. keaton and calle are great too, with a nice showcase for the latter

it’s maybe better than i’m suggesting since i’ve seen this pretty much right after having watched across the spider verse multiple times, which does some similar things much more seamlessly, so there’s definitely a certain amount of wind being taken out of its sales. but it’s still pretty good, just not without some of the bullshit you’d find in a few too many of todays blockbusters

 

To be fair, in the article he calls "The Flash" a "sophisticated story", but it wasn't "his story". It sounds like he's more down about his role in the movie not having much meat to it and not the movie as a whole.

 

He looks sedated.

 

I heard about the scene where Michael Keaton Batman 9/11's a Kryptonian spaceship with the Batplane and oh my god lol

 

I can’t wait to see what the people that talked shit on Ant-man’s CGI (it was bad) will have to say about this movie. I watched some leaks and the CGI is Scorpion King in The Mummy 2 levels of bad.

 

Would love a scene that involves Shannon’s Zod saying “it’s time for the urn!” to Miller’s Flash

 

both can be bad and I will shit talk both accordingly

 

The CGI in this is definitely worse than Quantumania.

 

nvm the movie is supposed to look like shit

 

okay, andy

 

“It Chapter Two” was also supposed to be like that (Very bad).

 

This was very good all things considered. Holy lol at some of the CGI

 

This is such a weird comparison. This has happened in a thousand different action movies

 

That was the way I heard it described lol
