Some of this stuff has been hinted at before. Also in theory we’re seeing a culmination of a storyline that started with the Timm/McDuffie era movies if not the TV series. This Flash has rebooted his universe twice from the Timm universe to Flashpoint to the Darkseid War to this current universe and jumped between realities a few times and now we’re here.Part 1 was probably the closest in tone and vibes we've had to the Timm/McDuffie JLU of the early 2000s. It was a solid somewhat self-contained Flash story, but the intended crowd-pleasing moments with the larger cast of DC characters felt inorganic and empty. Like if Infinity War premiered without the 10 years of character investment.
i.e. What they attempted with Batman, Huntress, and Nightwing fell flat bc we don't know nor care about these specific versions. The Batman(s) we've known have always had Nightwing/Robin.
Stewart and Shayera meeting up was a nice intended nod to us fans from 20 years ago... but it's been 20 years. DC never bothered to cash in on their popularity so seeing that thrown in for 2 whole seconds was meh. Other examples too like Superman/WW, etc but i digress.
Similar with the recent trailer for part 2; a lot going on about the stakes but my emotional stake in these characters were at an all-time low.
