>As it turns out, super-powered people live just like us. Sharp-eyed Redditor HT42LP caught something familiar hiding in the background of the scene when Bruce Wayne introduces himself to The Flash after waiting creepily for the guy to get home: an episode of Rick and Morty.
>The scene begins around the 1:17 mark. Bruce throws a Batarang at Barry Allen’s head, time slows to an aching crawl, lighting crashes inside the room as Barry grabs the projectile out of thick air, Bruce says, “So you’re fast,” with frozen intensity, and ‘roided-out Rick and Summer beat the absolute crap out of the Devil to a DMX song on a TV in the background.
DCEU Flash is shaping up to the the most reddit-bait "How do you do, fellow kids" superhero movie ever.
Sup Forums is going to have a field day.

What's wrong with Rick and Morty?

>people on Sup Forums point this out the day the trailer drops >people say "oh neat" or something similar or just don't care
>nerdist and reddit talk about it >REDDIT TIER, IT'S GONNA BE SHIT, FUCK THIS FLASH
Jeremiah Mitchell
I think that ship has sailed.
Adam Sullivan
It's almost as if these two shows are owned by the same company or something.
Makes ya think sometimes.
Isaiah Lee
Nice projection.
James Bennett
what?
Hudson Gutierrez
Exactly.
Christopher Gonzalez
>Scene is about batman recruiting Barry to fight a giant devil entity
>In the background Summer and Rick team up to fight Satan
BRAVO SNYDER
Isaiah White
Not that user but that's literally what happened
Nolan Anderson
No way..... WE LANDED ON THE MOON!
Carson Bailey
I'm sorry. How does Rick and Morty qualify as Reddit?
Tyler Wilson
>Most likely just something they wanted to play in the background to give you a feel of what Barry Allan is like. Time Warner not wanting to pay royalties to put another entertainment network's show that isn't part of their fold for in a scene that's irrelevant & not to mention out of focus anyway
How Sup Forums responds >REEEEE REDDIT & MORTY! WB EXECS SO DESPERATE! CROSS PROMOTIONING!
It's literally okay when Spider-Man does it, apparently.
Nathaniel Stewart
>How does Rick and Morty qualify as Reddit?
How does anything qualify as Reddit, honestly? It's basically saying something is for normies and you don't like it.
Carson Cook
It's popular. If something becomes popular Sup Forums deems it as "reddit" or "tumblr".
Noah Turner
quality tard board
Christian Jenkins
If you got salty over an out of focus shot of Rick & Morty on a television, you must've been inflamed when Spider-Man referenced Empire Strikes Back.
Jason Williams
Empire is old and withstood the test of time though. Gotta be angry about new stuff because it's weird and scary to Old Man Sup Forums.
Luke Green
Projection of what?
It literally is happening in this thread
Alexander Taylor
>"Let's pay Fox & CBS millions in licensing royalties to have episodes of Twilight Zone & Futurama play in the off focus background when we can actually use Rick & Morty, Looney Tunes, & Babylon 5 can portray the same message we wanted to convey for free." said the fired armchair exec posting on Sup Forums.
Gabriel James
>Twilight Zone >Babylon 5
>Implying people would give a shit.
Hell, you'd be pushing it with Looney Tunes at this point unless it was fucking Space Jam.
Ryan Williams
>R&M is a popular show for the teenagers to twenty-somethings >Barry is a twenty-something loner
While I lost interested in the show during the second season, that doesn't mean it isn't the popular thing.
>OP is being a faggot once more.
Luke Hernandez
>implying people give a shit now. Well except for the raging autistic who gets angry over simple business moves.
Bentley Baker
Problem isn't that he watches R&M, it's just that he is an autistic spaz who will crack embarrassing jokes every second. But he's not the Barry Allen kind of nerd; calm, awkward and down to earth. He's a spaz who hasn't a fucking "2nd favorite chair"
He's going to talk non stop and fast the whole fucking movie. He will be something kind of Bart Allen except that he is supposed to be in his mid twenties.
If they want to appeal to "nerds" stop making fictional needs who acts like spazs. No one is like that in real life, any no one would like someone like that.
Bentley James
Dan
Andrew Young
Because its subreddit has one of the largest userbases on reddit
Jordan Peterson
It's still a stupid tie-in that's only there because WB owns Cartoon Network.
Liam Gonzalez
I wonder if Rick will start shitting all over the DCU in season 4?
Isaac Thompson
And?
Leo Phillips
it got popular...
Christian Lee
Would you all rather him have been a tumblrina or a fellow 4chanon who spouts neonazi propaganda he read on Sup Forums ?
Ayden Morris
It's Sup Forums posters. The popularity of live action comic adaptions have killed this board. I miss season 1 Rick and morty threads before the hard influx of off board shitposting courtesy of Sup Forums and Sup Forums
