The Flash
Travel through the multiverse with Popcorn Pals and content creator Jayden Rodrigues, as they go all out with a SPOILER review of the DCEU's most anticipated film of the year, The Flash. Starring Ezra Miller, Michael Keaton and Sasha Calle, The Flash sees worlds collide when Barry Allen (Miller) uses his superpowers to travel back in time in order to change the events of the past. But when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry must save the world that he is in and return to the future that he knows. Tim and Jay discuss whether the film lives up to its lofty expectations, how the story connects past and present DC characters and if the special effects really are as bad as a PS2 game. Is this finally a hit for DC? Listen and find out in an episode you will not want to miss.
