  • - Did you catch the crazy Justice League cameo

  • in the Crisis on Infinite Earths finale?

  • All right pop quiz everyone,

  • what is the greatest crossover of all time?

  • Did you answer Avengers End Game.

  • Well, a good answer but you might be wrong

  • because after this week DC TV pulled out all the stops

  • for their Crisis on Infinite Earths event series

  • and they may have just taken that title from Marvel Studios.

  • Now Tuesday nights of the end of this event series

  • that seemingly connected every past and present DC property.

  • Giving us cameos from Smallville,

  • easter eggs from Tim Burton's 1989 Batman flick

  • and letting legendary Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy

  • finally played Bruce Wayne IRL.

  • But it was a secret cameo in Tuesday's finale

  • that left fan shocked

  • and had everyone buzzing about what it could mean

  • for the DC Universe moving forward.

  • Now before we get into all of this,

  • we want to give you a spoiler warning

  • because we're going to be breaking down

  • the Crisis on Infinite Earths finale.

  • So heed our warning and turn away now

  • or be subjected to spoilers.

  • Or I don't know, stay and give us a like and subscribe.

  • We prefer the second option,

  • but just live your life.

  • So what happened?

  • Well in broad strokes or death strokes if you're nasty

  • at the end of the episode while traveling through

  • the speed force TVs Flash played by Grant Gustin

  • comes across the version of the Flash

  • from the film's played by Ezra Miller.

  • That's right The DC Cinematic Universe's Flash

  • aka the DC extended universe

  • or DC EU if you're thorough.

  • And this means that the DC EU

  • with the likes of my man, Aqua man

  • and Ben Affleck's whiskey porn Batman

  • are now officially canon within the arrowverse.

  • Or maybe it means that the arrowversus is now canon

  • within the DC EU it's all very confusing.

  • It's almost as confusing as meeting a version of yourself

  • from a different universe that looks completely different

  • than you, super weird.

  • But back to that epic moment

  • in the scene Ezra Miller's Barry thinks

  • the other Barry is a cosplaying fan who just wants a selfie.

  • Gustins Barry muses that that meeting another Flash

  • shouldn't even be possible since

  • the crisis event destroyed the multiverse as we knew it.

  • And I don't know about you

  • but that definitely seems like a setup

  • for some future Flash problems.

  • Now after the two

  • collectively complement each other's costumes.

  • Miller's being safe

  • while Gust'n's being comfy and breathable.

  • The meeting ends with Miller's Flash fading away

  • with the line, "I told Victor this was possible."

  • An obvious call out to Victor Stone,

  • aka the Flash's Justice League buddy, Cyborg.

  • - Buya.

  • - (chuckles) Buya indeed.

  • As for what this means

  • there are four major takeaways from this scene

  • and no,

  • we aren't referring to British people getting takeout food.

  • Have your cheeky Nandos on your own time.

  • The first is it's so good to see Ezra Miller

  • as the Flash again,

  • he clearly loves playing this character

  • and obviously wants to continue playing the character

  • and I think fans collectively want that as well.

  • The Flash solo film was seemingly dashed on the rocks

  • of development hell for a long time.

  • I mean,

  • this movie has been in the works since 2015

  • and was delayed time and time again.

  • With many directors joining and leaving the project.

  • It was like a Crisis on Infinite scripts

  • but with the current addition of it director Andy Muchieti

  • helming this project and with Ezra Miller popping up here,

  • it gives us hope that the Flash is gonna stick

  • to his 2022 release date.

  • Second, did anybody realized

  • the DC EU's Flash didn't have a superhero name yet?

  • Because one of the funniest parts of this meeting

  • of the Barrys was Ezra Miller,

  • not knowing that he's called the Flash

  • and good news,

  • he likes the name.

  • And this opens up a whole other can of worms

  • because if the Flash gets his name from the Flash,

  • does that mean?

  • No, you know what,

  • I'm not eve gonna try to trace the causality in the logic

  • of this because there's not enough aspirin in the world.

  • Third, this possibly gives us a lot more context for

  • that scene in Batman v Superman,

  • Dawn of Justice,

  • when the Flash pops in from the future

  • to give Bruce a warning.

  • Especially with the Flash's line in crisis,

  • "I told Victor this was possible."

  • Now maybe they can use this arrowverse pop in

  • to finally explain how that scene worked.

  • And last but not least,

  • this begs the question,

  • will we see any of the arrowverse characters pop up

  • in the upcoming Flash movie

  • or in any other DC movies?

  • Now normally we'd think no.

  • But with the popularity of this crossover among fans

  • and the fact that the Flash solo film is allegedly gonna be

  • a take on the comic book event Flashpoint.

  • Well, anything is possible.

  • Even if nothing comes from this,

  • this little pop in by Ezra Miller's Flash is a great way

  • to see crisis pay ohmage to all of their many, many versions

  • of DC characters.

  • But most importantly,

  • it really points out that it's been an absolute crime

  • how little we've seen of Miller's Flash on the big screen.

  • Is it 2022 yet?

  • No, no, it's not.

  • But what do you folks think?

  • What did you think of the meeting of the Barrys?

  • And do you think we could see any other arrowverse

  • characters in the DC EU?

  • Also isn't Ezra Miller's Flash just the best?

  • - Stop right there, I'm in.

  • - Let's discuss.
