It's his joint from the future, his main suit will be the classic piff
Whatever the case is, he isnt recognizable as the flash.

I heard people in the theater asking who he was. If I didn't know he was gonna be in the movie and didn't notice the bolt on his chest, I would have been confused too.

Some breh in this thread asked if he was booster gold. He looked like a cross between iron man and shazam to me.

Horrible that they have a hit show with the flash, with that character popularity blowing up and they made him unrecognizable in the movie.

There should be no confusion as to who he was, the entire theater should have stood up when he appeared. nikkas couldn't even tell who he was.

I'm not sure we were supposed to recognize him.

Yes we were breh, that scene only works if you know that it's the flash, and him being red with the bolt on his chest shows that they meant for people to know that he was the flash. We were supposed to get excited to see the flash appear in this movie, that scene was supposed to get a reaction. It didn't because he wasn't identifiable to most casuals.

If we weren't supposed to know who he was then he shouldn't have been wearing a suit at all. And they damn sure wouldn't have put the bolt on his chest.

They fukked up the suit trying to make it look too advanced.

That's Zack Snyder for you :yeshrug:

Tbh, that scene could've been cut and it wouldn't have affected the movie at all.

You right.

As is, that scene is useless.

It should have been
:gladbron:

"Holy shyt, that's the flash"



Instead people were like

:dahell:

"Who the fukk is this?"




That scene isn't needed unless people knew it was flash, and it only makes sense if the viewer knows it's the flash and understands his power.

Horrible job with that costume
:snoop:

Flash is a very recognizable and highly popular character. No reason anyone should question who that was.

I took that Flash scene as intentionaly confusing for the average viewer (who see it from Bruce's perspective) mixed with a wink to the comic book fans who know about the Flash.
There was nothing intentional about it. That was most definitely their take on the characters costume.

shyt was obviously supposed to be flash. The bolt on his chest lid up like they wanted the viewer to notice it. The viewer didn't tho because the shyt looked more like iron man than the flash.

The reason for the warning may have been intentionally confusion, but I don't think the viewer not recognizing him as the flash was intentional at all.

That scene was meant to get an excited reaction from the crowd but all it did was cause confusion on what just happened.

I thought lex figured out supes from the ship :yeshrug:

I didn't even realize he knew Batman's identity tho, when did he say his name?

Maybe its possible he figured it out from the ship also, I mean it did know a shyt load about the universe :wow:

He implied knowing Batman's identity by telling Superman that he was the one that was sending those return checks to Bruce....

why would she run back in for the spear? she didnt know what doomsday was, that the spear would hurt him, none of that, but superman and batman did....and the first thing superman asked batman was 'you find the spear yet', which shows he was thinking about it....and one of sup's powers (although its barely used depending on whose writing him) is telepathy....so it wouldnt surprise me if he was the one that got her to go look for the spear...cause it would also explain why he he didnt go directly for the spear at first and fought doomsday, cause he knew she was looking for it...also, how he knew where she was and what she was doing during the doomsday fight...

...i'm not saying that's a fact, but it wouldnt surprise me if that wasnt lil hint they dropped in the movie...

You never heard of intuition? Just maybe if there's another alien beast that emerged after witnessing other aliens from before that maybe using the thing that can kill previous aliens could work? I mean sometimes intuition and common educated guessing works.

Do yall think that this script was written to end with an overall plan in mind for upcoming movies?

Or is it the case that they just pulled a Matrix 2 and 3 and didn't know how to put together a coherent script? Basically just throwing stuff out there hoping it would work?

There's a definite plan breh. They start filming justice League in less than a month,suicide squad comes out in Aug and wonder woman is filming.

That's actually one of the things people have against this film, a good chunk of the film is set up for the next films.
