And from the reviewers I usually follow, the film has consistently received âitâs fun and better than some other super hero moviesâ reviews.

YâALL. It seems like nobody here has read a blue beetle comic or seen the movie, and youâre already shitting on it? Come on. This is the beginning of the new DCU, and any blue beetle fan can see from the trailer theyâre going to be doing some interesting stuff in this movie. Be nice.

I was surprised at the oblique Dan Garret references and the EXTENSIVE Ted Kord references, complete with a Ted Kord mid credit stinger.
I did NOT expect OMAC. Thatâs a deep fucking cut out of left field. I can see why James Gunn wants to keep this

No, itâs the second to last film of the DCEU. If it does well a sequel may find its way into DCU, but DCU does not officially begin until 2025.

James Gunn has said itâs part of the DCU but does not consider it the first DCU film.

BB also has references to Man of Steel, so no, itâs the second to last film of the DCEU
jordanlund@lemmy.one â¨10⊠â¨months⊠ago
Gunn has confirmed that BB is the first character of the rebooted universe, for which Superman will be the first film.

I can see why, itâs well done, fun, and has multiple deep cuts to comics history.
