And yeah, the movie was pretty ok. Course the entire DCAMU has been pretty iffy so far so being ok seems like a good point to leave it at, shame we won't be getting more TT though because they had the most consistently pleasant stories and characters out of all of them.
1. I've always thought that DC did animation better than Marvel with the same gulf in quality as the MCU and the DCEU. Though a lot of that is down to Bruce Timm. There's a sort of radius, how close to Bruce Timm the animated movie is correlates to its quality.
2. Marvel animated movies that I've seen so far have been pretty abysmal. Except I think it was Ultimate Avengers...and that's mostly down to a single moment. After The Big Fight Hulk won't calm down so Pym goes giant man and tries to palm big green who of course punches his hand open and then jumps onto his jugular and squeezes. Maybe it was because I was watching it with a crowd, but that was hilarious. But I seem to remember Planet Hulk being almost unwatchable. Or some Hulk movie.

1. Eh, it depends. DC movies before Flashpoint were consistently great and only getting better, but post-Flashpoint saw the creation of the DCAMU (A movie series based off of the shitty New 52 comics) and the departure of main directors who wanted to go work on other DC projects, as well as the hiring of Jay Oliva to be a director who...
2. … Was responsible for the creation of the shitty Marvel animated movies like Doctor Strange or the Avengers movies. Jay's a good writer and storyboard artist, but a director he is much more iffy on (He's much better at direct adaptations like TDKR, and not based on or inspired by adaptations like the New 52 comics), and he's been the main person in charge of the DCAMU for the past couple of years.
Also, Bruce Timm is great at TV, but a bit iffy with movies. (Return of the Joker=Great, The Killing Joke=Not so great)

This Killing Joke made me uncomfortable, not for the Joker's savagery but for the weird added sexual stuff...like it was a conservative (not politically) 19 year old in their first sexual relationship over enthusiasm or something. Like watching Batgirl and Batman get down I was going, "Did...did they think this is what I wanted? Do I need this weird pornhub/shipping thing in my Batman story? Isn't he like 20 years older than she is and friends with her dad? This is weird."

Bruce is a hardcore Batman/Batgirl shipper.
No no, I'm serious.

Then we could get a Godzilla vs American Kaiju.

I also forgot what the fuck happened last season. Apparently some Legends of Tomorrow shit where they have to chase time travelers through time making it even more incompatible with the wider MCU and it's rules of time travel.

The ways I see it, there are two ways to do time travel in a story. Either make it so incredibly restrictive such that it doesn't create massive plot holes
such as inStar Wars Rebels
or make it so that canon is basically irrelevant, go wild, and have fun with it, like Doctor Who.
It's why I'm not keen on it in the MCU, because it can be neither of those things. Maybe due in part to the Marvel Comic multiverse being already so prevalent.

There are three different angles for time travel now in the MCU by having the Marvel Entertainment properties loosely tied in. Probably why they were so keen to put them under Fiege.
The Runaways had a team member come back from the future to try and kill. I can't remember how they dealt with the Dreaded Paradox issue in time travel.
AoS did preventive time travel in season 5 and now Legends of Tomorrow style time travel in season 7.
Though in AoS's case they're covering in this season a bit in that they're really just guessing how time travel works in regards to ramifications. They guessed that it's the time stream theory, little changes won't matter. Big ones will. But they acknowledge the multiverse possibility.

I've been meaning to watch the Runaways actually. I've heard some good things. Just don't happen to have Hulu unfortunately.
I'm sure I'll get around to it one way or another.

Wait, maybe the AoS timeline is one where Coulson was brought back and the movie-timeline is one where he wasn't? After all, there's a Loki running around with a Space Stone at the time where Coulson was killed due to Endgame.

To be fair, Dr Strange was in a dimension without time (how can the Stone work there anyway, I guess it's not bound to its own dimension?) and he and Thanos were using the Time Stone itself and not a time machine.Forsher wrote:Change the future in the MCU... we have seen it several times in Doctor Strange and once in Infinity War.
