Ezra Miller...? Give us a break. "It" looks like an anorexic Dylan
Mulvaney before a shave.

�The Flash,� a superhero adventure starring Ezra Miller, emerged
victorious over Pixar�s �Elemental� in a battle of box office
lightweights.

This weekend�s two new releases were once expected to ignite the summer
blockbuster season; instead, both entirely missed the mark. �The Flash�
stumbled with $55 million and �Elemental� collected just $29.5 million in
their respective debuts. Both films fell short of already-low
expectations. Worse, they were pricy endeavors, costing $200 million to
make and roughly $100 million to market, so they are shaping up to be huge
disappointments in their theatrical runs.

In the lead-up to �The Flash,� executives at Warner Bros. worked hard to
convince the public that the film is �one of the greatest superhero movies
ever made,� per newly minted DC Studios co-chief James Gunn. Directed by
Andy Muschietti, the story picks up as Miller�s Barry Allen a.k.a The
Flash travels back in time to prevent his mother�s murder and
inadvertently cracks open the DC multiverse. (Cameos abound!)

But a tepid �B� CinemaScore from opening weekend crowds suggests that the
moviegoing masses didn�t entirely agree with the lavish praise bestowed on
the film by the people who made it. Without positive audience scores or
strong word-of-mouth, �The Flash� will struggle to rebound in the coming
weeks, especially as summer season heats up with the release of �Indiana
Jones and the Dial of Destiny� on June 30, �Mission: Impossible � Dead
Reckoning Part One� on July 12 and Christopher Nolan�s �Oppenheimer� on
July 21.

�This is a weak three-day opening for a superhero [film],� says David A.
Gross, who runs the movie consulting firm Franchise Entertainment
Research. �There have been similar openings that grew into big numbers,�
he adds, referring to 2015�s �Ant-Man,� which opened to $57 million and
ended with $519 million worldwide, as well as 2018�s �Aquaman,� which
debuted to $67.4 million and finished at $1.15 billion globally. �But we
do not see that here.�

But it had NU! NU! NU! appearances by Adam West, Christopher Reeve, George Reeves, Helen Slater, and Nicolas Cage! I expect this to lead to a Justice League Legacy movie with all of these actors and actresses reprising their roles.

You might be happy to know that a new DC hero, Former Guy, is coming soon too.
