Recently I have been catching up on Flash and the Arrow. So far I have to wait until Flash put the new episodes on Netflix and second WTF Arrow? Yes I did fast forward four seasons because I wanted to see how they ended The Green Arrow and right now its previewing what he was trying to do to save the universe. My question is….this part of them phasing the t.v shows out for the movie franchises??? I’m a comic book fan( mostly DC but now Marvel) who grew up on the cartoon versions of these shows. Batman was my favorite hero then and I wanted to be Poison Ivy( even though that movie sucked). At the end of the day hearing that the CW was going into DC territory. I was ecstatic. When I found out Green Arrow and Flash I started to question them. It was pretty obvious to me that Batman and Superman were not going to be doing a t.v series( DC has to catch up to Marvel). For them to put two people who are obviously part of the justice league on t.v was where my outrage began. If The Justice League is going to be compete with the Avengers they don’t need to have two members of the Justice League on t.v. Then Again lets be honest…how many origin stories do we really want to sit through on the big screen? I wasn’t happy about but then again I was tired of watching origin stories on the big screen so I gave it a try. The Green Arrow was pretty good but I was mostly impressed by the Flash. First and foremost I am impressed by the casting of Barry Allen and second the class was all inclusive in a not so invasive way( love the fact that the hero love interest is black). Anyway I was feeling this whole set up. Every summer I looked forward to a new season of both the Arrow and Flash all the way up to season five with the Arrow( which is the season I stopped at) and season 6 with the Flash. When they started adding Supergirl and the Legends came about that was when thing became overkill for me. I don’t care what Supergirl is doing but the legends were pretty new but I didn’t give them a try because…yeah. Now with Batgirl and a bunch of series on HBO Max. When they decided to not only come out with a Juctice League movie but to add a different Flash that was when I realize that Hollywood is not paying attention to quality. They are trying to outdo Marvel( which at this point DC looses). I hated this for DC but with all them damn batman movies. You would think that DC would have done a Justice League movie a million years ago. There have been one thousand batmans and five supermans already but no Justice League movie YET. It feels like creativity has been missing but politics is heavily there when it comes making films. My suggestion is that DC need to fix their mess instead of compete with Marvel and give Grant Gustin Ezra Miller’s job as the Flash.
