Flashpoint Paradox

Well that leak didn't take long to spread. I'm a tad worried about Warner Brothers/DC's reaction to the leak, so I'm posting about it in an f-locked entry here rather than at Tumblr -- although eventually I'll post this there too

Pretty much my reaction to it. Though I'd expected the Rogues to start fighting Zoom once the whole bomb thing came out (or at least start threatening until he told them that the bombs would go off if they attacked him

Yeah, the Rogues turning hapless once Thawne showed up was one of my chief complaints. They don't know how to get themselves out of the fix, and are really rather passive. It would have been nice for them to show some initiative and smarts, even if they couldn't solve the problem on their own.

I think most of the films are set in different universes, so I don't think they have to worry about continuity between this movie and future films. They obviously hint at the New 52 with Barry's new costume, but he's still with Iris and we don't see any of the universe-merging with Pandora. I'd expect most of the films in the future to be based on the New 52, though, and it sure seems like the next one is based on the first Justice League story arc in the Newe 52
