Starting point is 00:00:00 This episode is brought to you by Adidas. When the frustration grows and the doubts start to creep in, we all need someone who has our back. To tell us, we'll be okay, to remind us of our ability, to believe, because their belief in us transfers to self-belief and reminds us of all that we're capable of. We all need someone to make us believe. Hashtag, you got this.
Starting point is 00:00:22 There is the froie habitual, and there is the froude Montagne Blue. The Frois at his summit. Coos Light. T'envue in a fashion responsible. You have to have
Starting point is 00:00:33 the legal to consume the alcohol. Thank you to Huell for sponsoring this video. More on them in just a bit. Now we should watch it. In three, two, infinite. All right.
Starting point is 00:00:52 That was a lot. was a lot. Good golly. I'm going to definitely need to watch this again. I don't know. Clock all of the people in the back at all the time. So much density. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:01:05 It's been through so much. Patreon questions and dive in. Let's do patron questions. And then we'll dive on in gang. If it's your first time back with us for these DC animated joints. One thing we're doing across the channel is to guide our discussion. We check in with the patrons and see what they have to ask
Starting point is 00:01:26 with their most curious abute and also I want to say a big thanks to Prepper for chopping these highlights together if you would be so kind as to leave a like on the video subscribe, hit the notification bill, all that good stuff.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Press all the YouTube buttons. All the buttons. Also in the comments, let us know what else. Obviously we're going to watch part two next but in the future what else I saw some public enemies love. I saw some,
Starting point is 00:01:50 a lot of comments wanting certain things. So please keep comments in those. Absolutely. Vodka, as they say. All right, we're going to jump into some docs as soon as I can get it to do the right documents. Anytime we got docs. Thomas Doherty.
Starting point is 00:02:11 Thank you for starting us off. Does this part one portray the comic event it's adapting well or is it completely different? Would you recommend viewers to read the crisis on Infinite Earth's event. I feel like this is probably the... I think it's the John question. Especially in a video I am in
Starting point is 00:02:30 regarding this subject matter. This is what you want to hear about and I don't blame you because I got major thoughts. All right. But it wouldn't be fair of me to go into all that and not give you anything to speak upon.
Starting point is 00:02:42 So why don't you tell me what your impression as a newcomer to this universe? Who are... Batman? Is that the guy's names? Batman? I'm not, don't do, you can't trick me into God carrying you through this video, all right.
Starting point is 00:02:56 In brief, I haven't read Crisis, the, the original crisis since, man, I want to say that early 2000s, so about 20 years ago, I think it was last time I read Crisis, and the beats I remember were here. But that's what's tricky about an adaptation is the things I remember are the big impactful moments, which is what has to be. So I really couldn't tell you as far as, like, the details. and stuff but like the moments I remember and like the energy and flow and stuff like it looks like part three is covering the elements that I remember most but what was cool for me
Starting point is 00:03:31 is I know these characters a lot better now than I knew in 2000 like early 2000s I was raised you know Spider-Man X-Men Batman and such as I've gotten older I've liked the DC universe more so I know way more characters than I did when I read it which was fun because I think now if I read it, I'd be way more attached
Starting point is 00:03:53 to supporting characters that I didn't even know then. They would just be like, oh, that guy's costume or I'll be that kind of cool beat. Whereas now, like, I didn't know our man in the early 2000s. I didn't know the metal men. So now it would be really cool to have a little bit more context. So that was cool in watching this.
Starting point is 00:04:10 So to answer your question, I believe, but it's been 20, almost five years. Wow. Since I've read it. So that was when this was being published or just when you would have first been picking it up? I want to say it was published way earlier. I figured that this would be like a, what, like an 80s or 90s event?
Starting point is 00:04:29 Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I was going to say, how could you go more than 50 years worth of comics without doing something along these lines? I want to say it was 83, 85. Okay. And it was Marv Wolfman and George Perez. George Perez got that honorarium at the end there. But yes, what I remember, and like 80, it ran from 85 to 87. I remember beats that were present
Starting point is 00:04:53 and actually really I'm looking forward to I'm probably going to read this after part three because that was a fun journey to not remember kind of like All-Star Superman but I read that much more recently but I am enjoying this little journey of comic after adaptation This certainly lives up to the impression I've gotten from the outside so far yeah I can't comment at all on how much of a
Starting point is 00:05:12 faithful adaptation this is shaping up to be but I really did appreciate the overwhelming sort of cataclysmic nature of things and from hearing about people get excited about the recent again cw crisis and just hearing people talk about you know the importance of this storyline in general yeah like i i can definitely feel the sort of like breadth of like it's this is fun to me because it suggests this is probably like a thick arc right oh huge yeah and and everything led to this right it's it's you need to read a lot to get to this and read it yeah absolutely
Starting point is 00:05:50 And so this feels like, on the one hand, like, damn, substantial, you know, first chapter, what on earth are the next couple going to be like? And you already feel like, at least, again, from my experience, you have this, again, this anti-matter wave that seems so insurmountable. And yet here we are at the end of that, you know, first major, you know, joint effort across time and space to stop it. And then we get sort of a, you know, I'm sure, Infinity War and other things like it are borrowing, from an event like this when you close out a chapter and you're like oh damn we i guess we didn't win you know and now you know there are two more of these movies worth of story for this so it feels at least to me appropriately like a big event and uh you know a very circumstance uh not circumstantial a very sort of um uh oh what's the word i'm looking for it looks like it's going to be a very
Starting point is 00:06:45 sort of important crossover it's going to like have a lot of effect on the universe and the surrounding you know details yeah so so far it's at least living up to the you know scale i'm expecting out of this but i would have read it in 2003 because it was followed by infinite crisis and i remember reading it when i believe they announced infinite crisis so i think that's the timeline so 22 years okay it's been some time appreciate you thomas doherty sci-fi extremist has this to say thank you for stoking the fires of reflection i have have mixed feelings on these films but who wants to be negative
Starting point is 00:07:24 right yeah all who was a character that appeared that you were surprised to see and who's someone you want to see in the sequels or even just someone you hope gets more screen time question guy definitely need more of the question dude you dig the question especially his old
Starting point is 00:07:40 like 60 stuff he's a weird like a weird Steve Dicko character he's old delight well actually I don't have the most vast lexicon on inspector but i was actually uh having seen some of the comics and stuff like that and just the image of and and some of the vague amount i know about the backstory like i was like oh cool this is a character i've been interested in checking out and now i'm gonna get to check him out you know
Starting point is 00:08:04 just my virtue of this i assume especially since he showed up at the end and brought major portents you know i imagine he'll be back i am always excited to see my boy michael holt Mr. Terrific showing up made me happy. Well, and he had stuff to say. He was doing stuff. He was doing terrific things. And I've only become a more, a bigger Mr. Terrific fan over the year. So I don't know how invested I was in him in the early 2000s.
Starting point is 00:08:32 I was surprised most by Psycho Pirate. I think of Psycho Pirate as a bad guy. So seeing him with the heroes, I wasn't even sure I was right into being him because I was so shocked. Sure. So I would say, Psycho Pirate surprised me. Psycho Pirate, Kessay. I'm trying to scrub to the part where we get like the big yeah like everybody's here Davey Crockett
Starting point is 00:08:53 I'm like I don't know who Davey Crockett was and like this half zombie surprise me Hawk and then metamorpho here All right Oh that's not a zombie aquaman I thought it was like a zombie aquaman Firestorm with Davey Crockett Ooh yeah Who's this got piecemaker made an appearance
Starting point is 00:09:13 Hey John Sina you almost didn't see him but yeah did see him. There's so many people. I'm just trying to clock the ones I can here. I was going to say, very proud of playing this game and doing like, you know, 80% odds. Damn, that is peacemaker. Holy crap. Blinkin, you'll miss it, Peacemaker. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Let me check that other flash looking guy, that like older flash looking guy. This is cool. Oh, man. Yeah, I was surprised by a lot of these characters. You know, there's a lot of Legionnaires. I don't know as well. There's a lot of obscure silver and golden age before my time comic characters. I'm sure I'm not clocking.
Starting point is 00:09:46 but a lot of them I know now. And that's exciting because I would love to reread this and be like, I have an association with 30 years more lore. Yeah, I just like that this Shazam they conjured in as like an old chubby dude. He's vibing. He's out here. He's doing his best.
Starting point is 00:09:59 And who's that cowboy guy with the bird on his chest? Yeah, I don't know him or Davy Crockett. I think those might have been like OGDC, like, you know, 40s, 50s. And is this Aquaman really a Nazi? This Aquaman is a very strong-willed borderline fascist. Okay. oh god he made the cut i suppose you know doing doing her best work uh yeah this was like super fun though just all these different characters showing up and stuff like that and you know part of the fun of any
Starting point is 00:10:26 of these arcs is that you know is the sort of like oh my god point i hope we uh zatana is in the background of a few of these too it would be some actual zitana action uh and then kevby um if you were suddenly thrown and thank you for chiming in into uh around in time let me start this again if you were suddenly thrown around in time like Barry Allen in this movie. Is there a specific moment from your own life you want to go back to or maybe even change and how do you think that one change could affect
Starting point is 00:10:55 everything else in your life? That's a tricky one. I don't think I've seen too many movies. I don't think I'd change the thing. I would want it. There's so many, that's the thing is like there's so many things I would be tempted to change and at the end of the day I have seen too many movies and I'm just like I don't want
Starting point is 00:11:13 to destroy. the timeline completely. I saw what happened when Homer sat on that fish. Yep, that happens. But like I wouldn't have met my fiance if I didn't become a host, so I'd want to do like everything that led to all the acting that led to the hosting that led to the stunt work that led back to the hosting
Starting point is 00:11:29 that led to the fiance. Yeah. You know, like there's just too many things that I love in my present that I'd be afraid of risking. But I would like to go back to I think like the early 90s and just experience pre-interested.
Starting point is 00:11:45 Koi oh he was happy yeah I'd like to see like the innocent freedom of like not having infinite knowledge and connectivity your fingertips I think it'd be cool to see an era where like the lights go out at six and you got to get home like that that era like but riding bikes to this day when I got a Burning Man and ride bikes it reminds me in my childhood and that's like a freedom because there's no cell service out in the desert and it's all lights and like wonder and awe and that feels like childhood so I would want to go back and see that That's a good call. I'm trying to think of, yeah, where I would want to...
Starting point is 00:12:17 Not witness and change it, just witness and... Part of me is, yeah, now I'm having the bargain in my mind of like, I don't know if I would go back and force a change on something, but I might go back and try and what I would be in greater danger of actually taking the opportunity to do is to go back and, like, plant pieces of advice for myself. Oh, that I would love to do, but I know better. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:39 It's like, what if I don't change a specific thing? I just change my own attitude in the timeline. It's worth it. Like, you know, you get an ego and you're an asshole now. Yeah. I mean, there are so many, I'm trying to think if there's, like, any one moment that I would want to go back to and revisit. I feel like that, you know, I would probably, yeah, take that opportunity to maybe just go back to some particularly joyous times or peaceful times. And, yeah, just observe and just be like, oh, man, this was a really great trip.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Yeah. Oh, man, that, that, you know, time I played the guitar in front of the school and I hit the piece and it was all good. you know, like, there's a moment. Yeah, I might go back and just stock up on moments of joy. Yeah, exactly. I don't want a lot, like a deepen the repertoire. Yeah, go back and peer back in on a particularly good date or something. I'd pop into Hall H all the time.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Hosting Hall H is like the greatest rush. You know what I would do? I would go back in time to like places I can't eat anymore and I would just go eat at those places. Dude, I'd get Dunkicino's every day I had the power to. Hey. Dunkinio up for days. I miss Dunkinacchino's. IP Dunkinco.

I love nostalgia just traveling home to the east,
Starting point is 00:15:46 so I can't even imagine time traveling. Like, I always go to the same ice cream place. I always get the same pizza. I do that with time travel. Oh, I know what I would do. I would go visit. I figured it out, Koi. I would go back in time and I would go to there was an old haunted house.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Oh. It was a home haunt by people who, I can't remember. They were like in the business. They, like, I think they worked in effect. So they had the ability to like make really beautiful optical illusions and pull out every kind of like, again, haunted house trick. And it was set up this thing in their front yard and it just gained so much notoriety and people would just show up and walk through it. It was just like a free thing. It was a free labor of love. And it would go up their driveway and
Starting point is 00:16:21 they would have like these archways and like the Disney faces that would follow you. And then you go up on the porch and like in one bedroom there's like a little, you know, like child's room thing that's eerie. And then in the front room there's like a ghost pianist and harpist who show up at these instruments like Pepper's Ghost style. There's so much stuff. And it had so much vibe and atmosphere and it was like a thing that we would go to when I was like a tiny child and it played a huge role in me like I used to love it and then I got scared of it and then I overcame that fear and loved it again and it like fueled I think it was also something that would only happen around Halloween time so like it fueled my lifelong love of horror things and haunted houses
Starting point is 00:17:00 and spooky performance and decor and all that stuff so I would go back there and I would go just walk through and bask in the vibes again one last thing yeah Arkley I'd go to Arclight. I would go to Arclight. I would go back to a bunch of concerts that I saw. Oh, yeah, yeah, totally. But yeah. Let's talk about it.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Let's do it. Crisis and Infinite Earth's Part 1. The beginning of quite a journey and quite a chunky boy for a part one. I was very curious where this was going to stop. And again, I haven't touched this book in quite some time. So I don't know what part two will stop at either because it's interesting. It's an act one, but it's so big that it doesn't feel like an act one. But yeah, they did a really good job, in my opinion, capturing the special effects and making it feel really cinematic.
Starting point is 00:17:49 I love the immersion between worlds. I think the thing that matters most in this story, the two things that matter most to me in the story are Barry's relationship with the Justice League, but more importantly, Barry's relationship with Iris. And I think they captured both those things really well because you need to immediately understand his relationship with the heroes, but you really need to be anchored to his relationship with Iris. And I love Iris West, like, as a character. So I really was, I felt that love in the writing and the performances and everything here. And so the special effects got to be like icing on the cake that it felt so cinematic. But the anchor of heart was so good. Yeah, I think that's the thing that always catches me off guard.
Starting point is 00:18:26 And I, you know, Flashpoint left a huge impression. And that's a kind of big collision event as well. And I'm curious as to how, like, that story seems like way more personal to specifically this is about the flash and circumstances. related to the flash and it affects everybody else but it's like he's the nucleus and here i was surprised to find that it's like a similar idea in that you encounter flash careening through the speed force you know encountering these different earths and different moments and stuff like that but it does feel like a way more broadly scopic thing just with flash to ground it to kind of be something of an eye line and i like this universe's iteration of flash very kind of affable and relatable and
Starting point is 00:19:08 a good, again, for all these powered characters in this I liked him as the eyeline and I think, yeah, him and Iris West. I thought that was really charming because you see so many moments in their relationship, you know, to see their first meeting or at least an early meeting of theirs and then, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:24 their wedding and them growing old together. And that was like such a thing that, yeah, like without it feeling like I'm watching a, I'm reading a Flash comic. It felt like this really lovely wraparound that is, yeah, like just all about the character of the Flash, who I've red precious little of on the page
Starting point is 00:19:40 as compared to certain characters like a Batman or Superman or other characters like that. That said, I will say that those two anchors that I'm saying are important or are only necessarily for the beginning. I believe that. I would expect not to have that necessarily be as important going forward.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Oh no, yeah, yeah, yeah. For like everything that happened here. I was afraid I'm like, wait, am I teasing incorrect? No, no, no. Because I mean, too, you know, they're young, they, you know, get married, they grow old, she dies. See a lot of flash, perhaps other characters. characters come to probably. Yeah, part of me wonders if there's going to be some kind of motif
Starting point is 00:20:12 of a different character takes up the eye line or will the next ones be more forefront ensembley. This is certainly an ensemble, but again, yeah, like I'm not given the events and given the life cycle that we go through and given the fact that I think this is a slightly longer movie for these. Oh yeah, we should an hour. This was a full feature
Starting point is 00:20:30 and a half. And so this felt like we took the Barry story for this arc to its conclusion and now, yeah, I'm more curious is, you know, are, yeah, is chunk two, is act two going to focus on another relationship in a similar way, or is it going to be a totally different thing? But I'm not expecting this to carry you. Okay. Yeah, it just seemed like a nice, you know, again, oh, this is kind of familiar, but different. Yeah. And it does have flashpoint vibes. I get that. And yeah, and in a
Starting point is 00:20:57 sense for me, it is kind of neat to do that too, because again, it sort of speaks to the vastness of all of this lore and all of the kinds of, you know, twists and turns that a comic book story goes on. But yeah, I really like the way that this was disorienting and the way that they animated the lurch of like you're in the middle of a moment. Now you're being sucked out of the moment. Yeah. And when he runs, sometimes it's just running.
Starting point is 00:21:22 But other times you're like, go on there. Yeah. It's like he's being pulled. Sometimes, yeah, he's choosing when to leave. And other times it seems like he's just like primordially thrust out of one reality into another reality. so like the tangibility was cool and then yeah
Starting point is 00:21:36 the slow buildup of like okay we're cutting to different earths and at first it's just like a bunch of stuff is whooshing at you and then you start to realize okay we're cutting back to a few of these specific ones to kind of watch the effects that are probably happening on every single earth but obviously you can't get to all of them
Starting point is 00:21:51 so yeah this felt huge and I liked the I thought the think tank was really fun and kind of charming in a way of like are they are they as self-aware in the actual comics when it's like, oh my God, you've literally just pulled us into a big think tank. Like, it's, it's cheeky, but probably not like the meta level of cheeky because there are, you know, a cabal of smart characters.
Starting point is 00:22:14 There are strength and like brains and brawn those elements, but it is a, I think it's a little heightened here. Sure. Okay. But like, I personally really love that strength and, and intelligence are so highlighted in the big two. Like Marvel and DC really make sure that intelligence is a superpower. and I feel like that's integral to this story. Like, thinking your way through problems and problem solving
Starting point is 00:22:37 and science and all those things are part of why I love comics and it's a huge reason I love, it's terrific. So I love that that is front and center here, even with the supernatural element of flash, there's still intelligence to get through the story. And I really liked that it didn't feel
Starting point is 00:22:53 bloated when you had the think tank and when you had them all just kind of spread out. It didn't suddenly get like cacophonous. There wasn't like a hundred voices talking and, like, stress, it just flowed through that version of the story that we're going to evolve and flow into another take and part of the story. And I'm hoping it stays just as smooth because I thought this was really efficient. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, you know, you would know the smoothness and efficiency better than I do,
Starting point is 00:23:18 but it felt, again, kind of like a whole piece, even though there is this sort of challenging motif about it in that it is disorienting. And also, it does feel a bit staggering and overwhelming at least for right now in like the way you want to be overwhelmed by a multiversal event or a big you know again crashing together of the world's type of event so yeah for me is more of a of a newb
Starting point is 00:23:44 to this story like I feel like I'm the right amount of overwhelmed and disoriented I also think it's a story that if you're in love with it and beholden to the original then it can be like oh they miss this beat they miss this beat because you can't translate every page on the screen if it's this big of a story.
Starting point is 00:24:02 And that's why I would like with All Star, I didn't want to reread it before and because I've now, you know, looked through some of my favorite beats of All Star. I'm not going to reread it until after the movie. But I would have been like, that's missing. So I actually stopped looking through All Star again, again until after the movie.
Starting point is 00:24:17 So this, I think people that don't like it might be missing pieces they love, which is hard. And I get that. Sure. I'm very curious. I'm still trying to find out who some of these voices are. Jeffrey Arend was Psycho Pirate. that's fun the guy from devil from or super troopers yeah both got different is he in devil i feel
Starting point is 00:24:36 like he's in the spooky elevator movie you know he's also in five days of summer underrated spooker yeah he's state super troopers yeah there you go there you go shnazberries tastes like shnauzberries once upon a time like ages and ages and age one of my most rewashed comedies of all time i was going to say maybe we should do a right that i love over here on the channel okay so i'm reading the cast now i'm seeing too much because i now i'm seeing too much because i now know some people are in this i'm done don't read the part two cast i just i just click cast and now it's given me ashley birch wasn't in this why she listed i don't know thank you oh night she was briefly in this yes actually birch is uh the light she's on uh mythic quest oh
Starting point is 00:25:13 all right hell yeah uh but yeah i i feel like um this is one of those reviews where it's like when we get to part three we can really talk about it yeah um but that's kind of why we love the patron questions to guide us so uh please sending questions part two and then we'll probably deep deep deep deep Deep dive, part three. I don't have to, yeah. Yeah, because that's going to be a total. We'll watch the next two and then rewatch them all in between
Starting point is 00:25:37 the break, between finishing the movie and shooting the actual reviews so I can be like, okay, I get everything. All the time in the world to experience a crisis. Actually, I'll have a crisis. We're spending the five hours trying to navigate this crisis. I really like the Amazo stuff.
Starting point is 00:25:50 I thought the Amazo stuff was very cool. And then, yeah, like for that character to go on such a journey over this one chapter of the story. And you really care about Amazo. Yeah, and you really feel for the manipulation and the dismay of that. And, yeah, like, there's so much about, like, oh, AI and the prime directive of, like, you know, to improve life and to make things better. And that sort of going sinister somehow.
Starting point is 00:26:12 But I like that it came out as, like, an earnest human thing of, like, I was manipulated. I was overpowered by this guy's code. But also, yeah, I'm so upset. Like, I want to fulfill my purpose now that I've done the opposite. And, you know, how can I help in this? you know, world-rending scenario and, yeah, to have it come back around that it's him and Barry and he's got to plug him in, it's like a huge part of the final last-ditch attempt at, you know, phasing us through the barrier or whatever, through the wall of antimatter.
Starting point is 00:26:43 The last thing I want to speak to is in that same vein of the meso, I love that multiversal content is so prevalent now and AI is obviously present. This is fascinating that it was written 40 years ago. This was written in 1985. Marvolfen and George Perez made this 40 years ago. It's incredible how prescient and how topical and also how pop culture caught up to this. Like, it's really insane that we live where this is being adapted at all times. This movie's from last year, but multiversal stuff like quantum theory was explained in Spiderverse that kids could understand it.
Starting point is 00:27:18 And now we're like, but 40 years ago, AI was, you know, being discussed on these things. So I just think from that standpoint from like a humans, zoom out, you know, what is reality standpoint and what is what is it we're leaving behind? Fascinating. Because these are our myths. These are our Greek myths of today. So they were way ahead of the curve. But yeah, that
Starting point is 00:27:38 is going to do it for this experience of crisis on infinite of part. Biddle, for Justice Leach, Christ is it on Invinters part one. Clearly, we have to stop because I've lost the ability to speak. We're phasing right now. I'm going to a universe where I had better speech. I just woke up from a different video into this video. Oh, we're not
Starting point is 00:27:54 running man? We're about to watch. Demolition Man for the first time. We're about to watch Deep Blue Sea right now. Your hat is like a shark's fan. Are we going to watch Karate Kid? We're about to watch Karate Kid and Robocop and every movie we've, all the DC animated movies. We're starting with the first one.
Starting point is 00:28:13 We're going back to the decamu. You know what actually I would also do? I'd rewatch movies for the first time. Oh my God. I'd love to see The Matrix and Fight Club for the first time again and amongst others. That's what I would do with this power is go to the movie theater to see movies I never of them are in the theater yeah yeah yeah and then we were because we can react here and then we could go see him and then in this reality we haven't seen him react honestly that's the
Starting point is 00:28:37 oh my god yes right react here and then you go back in time I can go see sinners on the full frame IMAs that's what we'd use the power for that's what we would use movie watching all right I have no better place to end it than that appreciate each and everyone you reject nation we'll see you soon for part two please like please comment please thank prepper we appreciate to subscribe if you haven't already two hours into the video you like it press the button all right we'll see you soon by guys cheers
