The Flash (2023)
1 question
Directed by: Andy Muschietti
Starring: Ben Affleck, Ezra Miller, Sasha Calle
Continuity mistake: During the fight in the desert, after Flash creates a tornado, the background behind Flash-original-suit changes: the corpses lying on the ground change number and position, and several tanks suddenly appear everywhere.
Wonder Woman: Nice suit. Looking good, Flash.
Flash: Oh, uh thank you.
Wonder Woman: [To Batman] And you are welcome.
Batman: My ego's far too big to say "thank you" to someone else. I developed this all powerful persona to compensate for my childhood trauma.
Al Falcone: I too have childhood trauma.
Wonder Woman: The Lasso of Truth. Never gets old.
Batman: [Struggling to get the Lasso off] I'd do a lot better just giving all my money away. If I really wanted to end crime, I should end poverty.
Flash: [Helping with the Lasso] I know sex exists. But, I've just never experienced it.
Trivia: Director Andy Muschietti has a cameo as the guy who is about to eat the hot dog outside the courthouse.
Answer: Some possible reasons gleaned from the Internet: Filmmakers wanted a different vision of Supergirl to reflect a darker, grittier personality and to show her refugee-like experience. Her dark short hair symbolizes her harsher journey from her home world. Also, it gives her a more androgynous look, reflecting both her feminine and masculine traits. Those are all possible reasons, but adopting a radically different look for an established character generates more attention and interest in the film.
