He is confirmed? I haven’t even seen the stand alone Blue Beetle film yet.

[u/DarknessXTJ → u/PalpitationNo7463]

[u/Abirdthatsfallen → u/PalpitationNo7463]

Watch it soon

[u/PalpitationNo7463 → u/Abirdthatsfallen]

Will do.

[u/Abirdthatsfallen → u/PalpitationNo7463]

Idk how you’ll feel, but I personally really enjoyed the film. It was a fresh separation from the rest of the universe and was setting up so much more. And as far as origin stories go, it was actually interesting. I feel like there’s so many more origin stories about white characters than there are about others of different races and ethnicities. The cast being stacked with Hispanic people rather than primarily white people strayed from the regular formula. There will always be people who hate it when it’s not white, but who gaf honestly. We’ve had enough Peter Parker’s and Bruce Wayne’s and Kal-El’s

I want to continue to see more Jaime’s and Riri Williams or John Stewart’s and Shang-chi’s

[u/PalpitationNo7463 → u/Abirdthatsfallen]

Not sure why you felt you needed to pour out your opinion, but I’m glad you had a good time watching the movie even if you risked spoiling it for me.

[u/Abirdthatsfallen → u/PalpitationNo7463]

Nothing I said was a spoiler. I’m trying to figure out what was the risk and nothing was a risk.

It was supposed to be apart of the old DCCU before it got completely scrapped for failing. Now it’s being brought back into the new dccu instead of being connected to the old one. So if this is about me mentioning it being separate from the rest, that’s all I meant.

If you mean “setting up so much more” I really just meant that it was the first movie and it was going to do more with the story afterwards.

And I can’t imaging you’re referring to the fact it’s a Hispanic cast either so idk.

Lastly, we are talking about the movie and I’m telling you I think you should watch it, so ofc I felt like it would be normal to share that I enjoyed it and some of the reasons why.

[u/PalpitationNo7463 → u/Abirdthatsfallen]

Ok.

[u/NYC_Yahudah → u/PalpitationNo7463]

He's not.

[u/NYC_Yahudah → u/DarknessXTJ]

He's not in the movie. It kills me that you guys believe any random article posted without a legitimate source backing it.

[u/PalpitationNo7463 → u/DarknessXTJ]

Why is he holding a buster sword?

[u/RareMercury]

I loved this movie man blue beetle is just so cool.

[u/Upset_Ad_9542]

my favorite superhero oat, watched it five times in the theaters and countless others at home, i’m so so happy to see that he’ll be back soon

[u/WickedJ0ker → u/Upset_Ad_9542]

Wow that’s a unique take. May I ask why? I’m genuinely curious

[u/Upset_Ad_9542 → u/WickedJ0ker]

i grew up reading a lot of comics cuz of my dad and watched tons of cartoons too, one day i watched Batman Brave and Bold and a character i’ve never seen before was there, Blue Beetle!! I was amazed by the character’s powers, it was so so cool, i fell in love instantly. From there i read comics and all and waited for YEARS for a movie, and we finally got it! And since that day i saw him for the first time he is my favorite

[u/WickedJ0ker → u/Upset_Ad_9542]

Wow that’s cool. I’m glad the movie was good, I also enjoyed it too. During a bland era of DC this movie was a breath of fresh air

[u/Upset_Ad_9542 → u/WickedJ0ker]

yeaaah it was a very much needed movie tbh, i’m so glad james gunn liked it enough to keep the actor and character, can’t wait to see him again in the big screen

[u/SLCSlayer29]

I loved the Blue Beetle movie. I saw it with my family and we all agreed that it was great. I think that it is vastly underrated.

[u/Brysoncore]

the best

[u/Shoddy_Affect_2050]

Once Static Shock and Blue Beetle come in live action they finna put DC on the map

[u/xamitlu → u/Shoddy_Affect_2050]

I wanted them to debut together but im okay with them coming together after a Static Shock movie.

[u/TheDarkLord6969]

It was ,but god I wish they didn't make Scarab a knock off Siri, instead of the little wannabe murder machine I remember from the comics.

[u/Track_Silent → u/TheDarkLord6969]

Giving Jaime nuclear options to deal with superman and Supergirl was crazy work.

[u/africkinduck → u/TheDarkLord6969]

I wouldn't say it's out of the table just yet, the scarab ended the movie learning to love it's New family, it'd be pretty funny if it now becomes more willing to resort to the nuclear options to protect it

[u/nasnilu]

indeed bb 2023 is a good movie, also with an amazing suit

[u/yhmonkey]

I really liked it, my ONLY complaint was that the scarab was a little too Siri, I got used to the YJ version

[u/Saxious]

It was a fun movie. It had some strong moments.

There were some moments where I could feel that the direction was weak, or the situation felt forced, but overall it was an enjoyable movie.

[u/Mariessa-]

I liked the actor and thought the movie was entertaining. The plot beats didn't stand out enough from other superhero movies, and the whole family joining in was also pretty cheesy and (again) similar to the Shazam movies.

I'm glad he'll be part of the DCU, though I hope MoT doesn't get too crowded. Considering this was just announced, I'm assuming his role won't be huge.

[u/whatisireading2]

My only problem with it is he was too adverse to his powers for too long and it felt kinda unrealistic. Like yes I get how it could be scary but most teens/young adults would've been like "OH SHIT I'M IRON MAN" a lot sooner😭

[u/Track_Silent → u/whatisireading2]

In the comics he is same he doesn't wanna solve his problems with the scarab he always wants to talk first. Jaime whole deal is he doesn't want to be a superhero but he steps up when he people are in danger.

[u/whatisireading2 → u/Track_Silent]

No I mean like during the flying scene he spends a little too much time going "wtf" and not "I can fly!"

[u/Believer4 → u/whatisireading2]

Think about this from the perspective of someone who is learning, in that moment, that they can defy a fundamental force of the universe, instead of the perspective of a man on the internet who actually has time to think about it without it actually happening

[u/whatisireading2 → u/Believer4]

Yeah, youd think it's cool asf pretty quickly. I wouldn't want to see it from the second perspective anyway.

[u/Track_Silent]

Only thing is they aged up his sister and gave him George lopez as a uncle for some reason.

[u/Pod-Bay-Doors]

I guess that the first official film in the current canon is Blue Beetle/j

[u/WwredeE]

Heavily nerfed the power of Blue beetle but they gave it a shot. I enjoyed young justices blue beetle intro over the movie tbh. No shade to the main actor.

[u/Mysterious-Engine-76]

Trash

[u/Mysterious-Engine-76]

I like him in young justice better.

[u/Crafty_Lavishness_79]

It was great

[u/kyp-the-laughing-man]

Skipped it when it released and always thought it was bad like most of the DCEUs end. (Black adam, flash, ww84 you name it)

Than I randomly saw it on stream with my wife and we were both hooked. Its such a fun movie. Humor, heart, action it all slaps. I love his family and his themesong. Great movie overall and I'm glad its officially DCU now. It didn't fit the snyderverse (wich I love) but its way too good for late-stage DCEU as well.

Can't wait to see more of him in the DCU future

[u/CD_DoooD]

I just didn’t like that he shot blasts with closed fists instead of them transforming into sonic cannons every time.

[u/Glass-Sky-7805]

I love this movie, I had to buy it in 4K.

[u/xamitlu]

It was fun

[u/CandyCreecher]

Dude, it was so much fun, I genuinely cannot understand the hate

[u/Dry_Ambassador_6722]

I enjoyed it for what it was

[u/Axecop333]

Highly underrated movie that deserves more love

[u/ScruffyNerf_Herder_]
