They all knew there was nothing they could do and theyre planet was doomed, so instead of giving up and running they just did what they always do and tried to fight it. Respect
That's what I like about THIS Crime Syndicate, they didn't cower, they didn’t try to bargain, they were Rulers, Warriors, and they were going to die like them, fighting with all they had with no fear, even if theyknew there was no stopping it, it didn't mean they wouldn't fight the inevitable
I mean if Ultraman has Superman’s powers. Punching the wall of anti-matter and it working would not be the most ridiculous thing Superman’s powers have achieved.
"My plan? My *plan* is I'm gonna punch that anti-matter wall so hard it shatters into a million pieces." Know what? Despite how incredibly dumb that is, it's also so ballsy that I can't help but respect it. You go, Ultraman.
He's not entirely evil , he only follows the syndicate when it applies to him , and he truly cares about the general public other than himself in some situations.

I think the reason Evil Flash was so different from the others on Earth 3 is that he's characteristically built like the Flash's own Rouge's Gallery, who aren't really evil, just greedy.
Y'know, when the Monitor said that the Anti-Matter wave always starts at the Earths of different universes, I wonder if evacuating those Earths to another planet within the universe would've spared them more time. I assume once all the Earths were destroyed, so too would be the rest of their universes.
Can you imagine the logistics to pull a worldly evacuation off?, it is hard to evacuate a building, even more a city in cases of extreme disasters, now, consider this on a waaaay larger scale, it stops being just a matter of intelect and resources, it becomes time consuming, exausthing for all of those involved, probably it could be pulled off, but at the end?, might generating triple if not quadriple the problems. All of those people that lost their earth?, their home?, bank accounts?, belongings?, memories?, yeah, they are now on another planet with possibily duplicates of them that aren't them and have different lifes, believes and many more. Anarchy might begin, a new spree of villains showing up on this world, It, would, be, Chaos. Now, lets say that for this matter, they take an 'undeveloped' earth, an earth that human life never came and it is all there for the taking, all the resources at 100%, the clean air of any trace of polution ; We are still talking about accomodating (2*X) billion people of our modern worlds into that place. What happens for those that need medication?, you cannot medicate all, it would be impossible, there would be no resources for everyone that needs it. Also, adapting back to the bronze-iron age?, with this numbers?, it would be hell on earth, but doable. At the end, it could be a good thing, because i'm sure that 1/4 of all the humans brough would die on the first month, this would at least give the rest more resources. [They would die of lack of medication, exploring new fauna and flora that they never saw before or simple, diseases that cannot be treated because they are from another, totally new stream of evolution], but the rest of the humanity could and would adapt, even with this absurd numbers [After all, the count of 2 billion per earth is very wrong, but i have to consider that probably this is the bare minimun in some earths, probably and they can easily surpass 10 billion depending on the tech of the earth] Sooooo, yeah... TLDR : Don't think that it is a good idea, but it could be a good story.
The thing is, at best, you would get maybe a city's worth of people to safety in time. The reason being that people may be smart, but in groups, they are prone to groupthink and collective stupidity and stubborness. Let's say you see the wave coming and know that it is two planets away from the world you are trying to save (not your homeworld). You would have to get there via teleportation if you want to have any meaningful impact, and then have the task of convincing the population that what you are saying isn't total BS and do so on a global scale, likely through utilizing broadcasting networks. Next comes choosing and creating an evacuation site, let's say teleportation pad(s) so you either set up a massive single one or multiple smaller ones. Problem solved right? Yes, but the next problem is how many can they take at a time? Dozens per teleport, or hundreds, thousands if it is big enough? Let's say thousands, but people can't take anything but the clothes on their back, how do you convince people to part with all they've worked for upto now? How do you stop the inevatible conflict that arises at the entrance when the less-morally-good folks or even supervillains show up - will you teleport an evil joker to safety if he promises to stay on good behaviour? How do you stop criminal eements from trying to pull one last heist by taking over the towers and charging people for "safe passage" to another world, and even if you can, will the heroes of your world accept having to manage them on the other side?
A wall of light consuming all matter that spans across the world. Crime Syndicate Members, except Johnny: “Aight imma throw some cars, make some buildings, punch it with my bare hands, and try to detonate a nuke at it.” At least Owlman’s idea isn’t as far-fetched as the rest of them.
Owl man’s idea is still kind of the same, but it has some proper range and power behind it compared to the other’s. Flying his plane into it however not the best idea. I’m sure he could have had more nukes than the ones on that one plane. Probably would have still been useless, but it at least would give him more time to throw more power at the anti-matter wall.
@@HusKrWolf I reckon you’re continuing to miss the point. I’m so curious as to what its like to go through life consuming media while completely lacking even the most basic media literacy.
Launching missiles, punching and throwing mere vehicles at an advancing anti matter wall that can disintegrate anything in its path? Even if had thrown my logic out the window I wouldn't do that as a superhero, I would run 😂😂😂
@@Raximus3000They can’t. Flash asked Johnny quick to come *with* him, because he was also a speedster and might be able to make the run with him. The others don’t have the speedforce. How do you expect them to run with Flash? You think Owlman can run between earths? Lmfao
@@Raximus3000 How? How do you know they could of? “They could of made smthn” obviously not lmfao. “Hold on guys, can you ask the antimatter wall *really* nicely to stop consuming our reality for a few months while I go do some R&D?” Crazy ironic how the people calling the crime syndicate dumb are the ones struggling to find two braincells to rub together.
I find it interesting how Superwoman kinda just gave up at the end there, realizing the futility of it all and decided to just let it happen. Wonder Woman would never stop fighting.
I get the impression that this crime syndicate was suffering from boredom. As Ultraman said, they had nothing else to do, maybe even robbing the bank at the beginning was a theater that they created to feel something and Superwoman probably suffered apathy.... it wasn't until Flash arrived that he injected some blood into everyone's veins. When they saw that the wave could not be stopped with conventional means, they knew it was the end. Superwoman, Batman and Johnny didn't give up or let themselves be killed, they were just tired
"Wonder Woman would never stop fighting." * eyeroll * Sure, honey, and what would that accomplish, excelt being another empty futile gesture? Oh please.
I do admit I gotta give the Tomorrowverse credit in doing their own take on Crisis on infinite earths even know it felt a little early to do the story well the comic counterpart worked more due to years of story building and the fact Kids growing up at the time in the 80's had to read the story seeing it as their own Avengers Endgame storyline and the fact we Got Superboy-prime out of it as well
Say whatever you say from thid kvoir, but this must be my favourite Crime Syndicate so far Even though they're villains, they try to save their world even though they know there's literally no hope left. Its sad that Johnny Quick died knowing he could've been something different, something better in another world
@@motodin4210 He's a nihilist. If someone gets into his plane, figures out the code, and blows it up, it doesn't matter as he can make a new one. Or if it blows up with him in it, oh well that's life. The plane isn't all that valuable to him either. Also if someone gets the drop on him he figures he doesn't deserve to live.
You know I actually do love it when super smart characters like owl man here agree that often the most blunt thing to do is the best thing to do. I hate it when the super smart characters always try to complicate the situation even more
This just happened in front of them and they had no plan or device to stop it. The only options left are to A. Give up and wait for death B. Run away to no avail Or C. Try literally anything and die swinging. Yeah it wasn’t the best ideas, but with only super strength, super speed, and weapons being their only options what else were they to do?
I hate it whenever DC talks about the Speed force as if it's a limited supply that a single guy could hog. You never hear about people hogging time or gravity. It's always used as contrivance to nerf speedsters because speedsters are broken as hell.
Except the speed force isn’t real and as far as the comics go you hog jog the speed force lmao. What are you complaining about? The fact a fictional property doesn’t obey the physics of very different things that actually exist lol. Certain users taking up more or less of the speed for isn’t new nor is it inconsistent. Also objects “hog” gravity literally all the time lmao. Did you pass third grade. You as an individual have some pull against other objects on earth, but the earth “hogs” all the gravity around it that people don’t get pulled toward you.
@@dmoneyswagg64except you do not "hog" gravity. You passively produce it relative to your density and size and whoever has the greater pull is just the equivalent of a weak magner vs a strong magnet The speed force hogging thing has and always was kinda hokey and dumb, speed force does everything and does nothing all at once. Quit sucking the rod in this one. People can have criticisms.

Actually he was the dumbest. He ran away knowing there wasn’t enough Speed Force energy, and it resulted in him getting hit in the face with rocks, impaled, and smashed by a car. The others knew they would die no matter what, there was no escape, they just wanted to die fighting.
@@YesOh-vf2bs no, it was a plot point, they couldn’t travel to the other universe because they didn’t have enough power. With the both of them there, they were using too much, they didn’t have enough to both make the jump.
For those of you who said "Owl man didn't say "this doesn't matter " obviously didn't read between the lines, batman would of given eveything and then some, but Owl man after knowing already what Barry told him AND after seeing how his missiles were ineffective he Immediately started to activate his last plan the 'It doesn't matter plan' and its a testament to his catchphrase because he definitely knows it doesn't matter since you can see zero hesitation at him activating a NUKE self destruction switch, I never seen someone who in movies not care about activating a Nuke, they stammer or maybe hesitate while hitting the button with a tear or some b.s but Owlmans actions were so fluid it's as he was hitting a light switch in his room 😂 batman would of definitely rather die than that option. And this is exactly why i love Owlman and am such a big fan of him more than batman I realize and after seeing this fresh clip it proves to me what he believes is true nothing matters in the end.
Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I love how they all just accepted the inevitable. Owlman abandoning all logic, the expressions of the rest just saying “it doesn’t matter how much we resist, we’re going to die” and Johnny Quick realising that no matter how fast he is, it won’t be enough. He could’ve dodged that car despite his condition, but didn’t because he knew he would die anyway, and giving Barry more of the speed force in the process was his method of acceptance.
The sheer dumbassery of this Crime Syndicate is ridiculous...punch anti matter? throw cars at it??. Even the comic book version of Owlman and Ultramanresigned himself to their fates
What people don't really see when they watch this is that the Crime Syndicate don't collectively make a plan, because they've never done that, they've always brute forced their world into submission, its all they know how to do, and its the last thing they can think to try
A lot of people are saying it would’ve been cooler if Owlman had said “It doesn’t matter” before his death but I think that kinda goes against his character here. If he truly believed that, instead of flying into the antimatter wall in a “stupid, useless gesture” he would’ve just stood where he was and waited for it to kill him
Nobody has a keener instinct for self preservation than veteran criminals. If their first plan was to throw themselves into a knowingly futile last stand... then you know the situation is grim.
I want a Universe where there is a Good Guy Owlman, who teams up with Batman to defeat Bad guy Batman, who also teamed with an Evil Owlman. I think it would be interesting.
The best part is, Owlman is actually Thomas Jr, Batman's brother. And yet, we barely had interactions between the two of them. In Crisis on Two Earths they didn't even know who they where under the mask.
Love how Johnny Quick told Flash to run instead of just trying to save himself.

Now, lets say that for this matter, they take an 'undeveloped' earth, an earth that human life never came and it is all there for the taking, all the resources at 100%, the clean air of any trace of polution ; We are still talking about accomodating (2*X) billion people of our modern worlds into that place. What happens for those that need medication?, you cannot medicate all, it would be impossible, there would be no resources for everyone that needs it. Also, adapting back to the bronze-iron age?, with this numbers?, it would be hell on earth, but doable.
At the end, it could be a good thing, because i'm sure that 1/4 of all the humans brough would die on the first month, this would at least give the rest more resources. [They would die of lack of medication, exploring new fauna and flora that they never saw before or simple, diseases that cannot be treated because they are from another, totally new stream of evolution], but the rest of the humanity could and would adapt, even with this absurd numbers [After all, the count of 2 billion per earth is very wrong, but i have to consider that probably this is the bare minimun in some earths, probably and they can easily surpass 10 billion depending on the tech of the earth]
Sooooo, yeah...
TLDR : Don't think that it is a good idea, but it could be a good story.
The thing is, at best, you would get maybe a city's worth of people to safety in time. The reason being that people may be smart, but in groups, they are prone to groupthink and collective stupidity and stubborness.
Let's say you see the wave coming and know that it is two planets away from the world you are trying to save (not your homeworld). You would have to get there via teleportation if you want to have any meaningful impact, and then have the task of convincing the population that what you are saying isn't total BS and do so on a global scale, likely through utilizing broadcasting networks.
Next comes choosing and creating an evacuation site, let's say teleportation pad(s) so you either set up a massive single one or multiple smaller ones. Problem solved right?
Yes, but the next problem is how many can they take at a time? Dozens per teleport, or hundreds, thousands if it is big enough? Let's say thousands, but people can't take anything but the clothes on their back, how do you convince people to part with all they've worked for upto now? How do you stop the inevatible conflict that arises at the entrance when the less-morally-good folks or even supervillains show up - will you teleport an evil joker to safety if he promises to stay on good behaviour?
How do you stop criminal eements from trying to pull one last heist by taking over the towers and charging people for "safe passage" to another world, and even if you can, will the heroes of your world accept having to manage them on the other side?
@@zerotohero884 someone does that. Can't remember marvel or DC but they find multiple earths to take in Refugees.
A wall of light consuming all matter that spans across the world.
Crime Syndicate Members, except Johnny: “Aight imma throw some cars, make some buildings, punch it with my bare hands, and try to detonate a nuke at it.”
At least Owlman’s idea isn’t as far-fetched as the rest of them.
Owl man’s idea is still kind of the same, but it has some proper range and power behind it compared to the other’s. Flying his plane into it however not the best idea. I’m sure he could have had more nukes than the ones on that one plane. Probably would have still been useless, but it at least would give him more time to throw more power at the anti-matter wall.
They thought it was a wall...
I reckon you somehow managed to miss the point
@@dkcsi9256 it’s still measly attempt
@@HusKrWolf I reckon you’re continuing to miss the point.
I’m so curious as to what its like to go through life consuming media while completely lacking even the most basic media literacy.
Launching missiles, punching and throwing mere vehicles at an advancing anti matter wall that can disintegrate anything in its path? Even if had thrown my logic out the window I wouldn't do that as a superhero, I would run 😂😂😂
They knew that they can’t do anything to stop it, so at least just go down in stylish way, because that’s the last thing they could do
@@tuanbom008
Except the Flash can travel through dimensions. Normaly you'd expect them to just try that.
@@Raximus3000They can’t. Flash asked Johnny quick to come *with* him, because he was also a speedster and might be able to make the run with him.
The others don’t have the speedforce. How do you expect them to run with Flash?
You think Owlman can run between earths? Lmfao
@@dkcsi9256
...They could have made smth that could allow them to piggy back on him or replicate the proccess rather than effectively giving up.
@@Raximus3000 How? How do you know they could of?
“They could of made smthn” obviously not lmfao.
“Hold on guys, can you ask the antimatter wall *really* nicely to stop consuming our reality for a few months while I go do some R&D?”
Crazy ironic how the people calling the crime syndicate dumb are the ones struggling to find two braincells to rub together.
I find it interesting how Superwoman kinda just gave up at the end there, realizing the futility of it all and decided to just let it happen. Wonder Woman would never stop fighting.
I get the impression that this crime syndicate was suffering from boredom.
As Ultraman said, they had nothing else to do, maybe even robbing the bank at the beginning was a theater that they created to feel something and Superwoman probably suffered apathy.... it wasn't until Flash arrived that he injected some blood into everyone's veins.
When they saw that the wave could not be stopped with conventional means, they knew it was the end. Superwoman, Batman and Johnny didn't give up or let themselves be killed, they were just tired
Technically, Superwoman isn't even Diana's alter. She's Mary Batson's.
@@Brasswatchmani thought this was the Lois Lane one?....
"Wonder Woman would never stop fighting."
* eyeroll * Sure, honey, and what would that accomplish, excelt being another empty futile gesture? Oh please.
@@someindoboi4655 superwoman have a lot of characters use the name. Some are female superman and others are wonder Woman
I do admit I gotta give the Tomorrowverse credit in doing their own take on Crisis on infinite earths even know it felt a little early to do the story well the comic counterpart worked more due to years of story building and the fact Kids growing up at the time in the 80's had to read the story seeing it as their own Avengers Endgame storyline and the fact we Got Superboy-prime out of it as well
"This planet might suck, but it's ours." Ultraman just became the most relatable villain to me.
Say whatever you say from thid kvoir, but this must be my favourite Crime Syndicate so far
Even though they're villains, they try to save their world even though they know there's literally no hope left. Its sad that Johnny Quick died knowing he could've been something different, something better in another world
0:23 I understood that reference.
What was it?
2:19 his nuclear code is 3 digits
He's not so bright, is he ?
@@motodin4210 maybe he thinks it doesn’t really matter.
And it contains the first three numbers
@@motodin4210 He's a nihilist. If someone gets into his plane, figures out the code, and blows it up, it doesn't matter as he can make a new one. Or if it blows up with him in it, oh well that's life. The plane isn't all that valuable to him either. Also if someone gets the drop on him he figures he doesn't deserve to live.
It doesn't matter
You know I actually do love it when super smart characters like owl man here agree that often the most blunt thing to do is the best thing to do. I hate it when the super smart characters always try to complicate the situation even more
I agree.
I respect intelligent people and characters but I hate when they complicate things.
He was smart enough to know there was nothing they can do to stop it and decided to die fighting.
Spock in Galileo 7. Except it works.
“Lucky you “ hit hard
To Owlman if you're going to die. Always go down fighting.
What is it with Owlman and killing himself?! 😂😂😂
The other woman from justice league crisis on two earths was crazy 😂
With explosives no less!
Isn't Owlman like a nihilist or something? Doesn't he view life as meaningless?
because it doesn't matter
This just happened in front of them and they had no plan or device to stop it.
The only options left are to
A. Give up and wait for death
B. Run away to no avail
Or C. Try literally anything and die swinging.
Yeah it wasn’t the best ideas, but with only super strength, super speed, and weapons being their only options what else were they to do?
I hate it whenever DC talks about the Speed force as if it's a limited supply that a single guy could hog. You never hear about people hogging time or gravity. It's always used as contrivance to nerf speedsters because speedsters are broken as hell.
Except the speed force isn’t real and as far as the comics go you hog jog the speed force lmao. What are you complaining about? The fact a fictional property doesn’t obey the physics of very different things that actually exist lol. Certain users taking up more or less of the speed for isn’t new nor is it inconsistent. Also objects “hog” gravity literally all the time lmao. Did you pass third grade. You as an individual have some pull against other objects on earth, but the earth “hogs” all the gravity around it that people don’t get pulled toward you.
@@dmoneyswagg64except you do not "hog" gravity. You passively produce it relative to your density and size and whoever has the greater pull is just the equivalent of a weak magner vs a strong magnet
The speed force hogging thing has and always was kinda hokey and dumb, speed force does everything and does nothing all at once.
Quit sucking the rod in this one. People can have criticisms.

Flash always manages to somehow bring out the best in people.
Just look at the justice lords (justice league unlimited) without the Flash they became tyrants.
We love the flash
I would like to see a Stand alone DC animated film of the Crime Syndicates. This team is so cool, even for a bunch of Villains!
Only Johnny quick used his brain 😂
I thought owlman was the smartest
Actually he was the dumbest. He ran away knowing there wasn’t enough Speed Force energy, and it resulted in him getting hit in the face with rocks, impaled, and smashed by a car.
The others knew they would die no matter what, there was no escape, they just wanted to die fighting.
@@brandenmarcum430 if none of the stuff didn’t hit him he prob would have made it with flash
@@YesOh-vf2bs no, it was a plot point, they couldn’t travel to the other universe because they didn’t have enough power. With the both of them there, they were using too much, they didn’t have enough to both make the jump.
@@brandenmarcum430your channel description is idiotic
If you ever feel useless, remember Superwoman tried stopping this wave by throwing cars at it; the same wave that's eating entire landscapes.
I love how even the "evil" version of Flash is still a good guy, he really is the earth of the Justice League.
3:00 this reminds me of the flash traveled back in time to save everyone from Vandal Savage in Legends of yesterday: Arrow 4x08
Who the hell in their right mind thinks to punch antimatter? Ultraman lmfao
You don’t understand this scene.
They all knew they were going to die. They just wanted to go down fighting instead of standing there doing nothing.
He thought he was Superboy Prime
Well, he tried, but he's no Superboy Prime.
I mean it worked for superboy prime when he did it
@@brandenmarcum430 That's still stupid, JQ could've worked with the Flash and run the CS to another universe.
For those of you who said "Owl man didn't say "this doesn't matter " obviously didn't read between the lines, batman would of given eveything and then some, but Owl man after knowing already what Barry told him AND after seeing how his missiles were ineffective he Immediately started to activate his last plan the 'It doesn't matter plan' and its a testament to his catchphrase because he definitely knows it doesn't matter since you can see zero hesitation at him activating a NUKE self destruction switch, I never seen someone who in movies not care about activating a Nuke, they stammer or maybe hesitate while hitting the button with a tear or some b.s but Owlmans actions were so fluid it's as he was hitting a light switch in his room 😂 batman would of definitely rather die than that option. And this is exactly why i love Owlman and am such a big fan of him more than batman I realize and after seeing this fresh clip it proves to me what he believes is true nothing matters in the end.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
They may have been villains but they went on their own terms and protect the planet.
Ultra man is voiced by Matt Lanter who voiced Anakin Skywalker. How ironic 😆
Lou Diamond Phillips as Owlman-doesn’t even sound like Phillips.
Now i can’t unhear his anakin voice in ultraman 😂
I do have to admit Matt lanter's voice for ultraman was pretty good in this movie.
Owlman dope af... 💯
...
"Perhaps... the time comes when the most logical course of action is a stupid useless gesture"
when the syndicate tried to kill flash and johnny intervened, that said all about his character...a good man doing bad things
1:40 i dont get why she thought throwing a car would do anything xD
I guess she thought one of those cars had an antimatter nullifier in their trunks
I mean, she gave up almost instantly
She's cute xD
The whole crime syndicate is cute in that in face of certain death, they're willing to go out "fighting".
"Fight like hell" based af
Trump😂😂
The best part was Ultraman pushing the building the other way. Who saves lives ?? Lmao 😂
@@midnightxtalewhat are you on about?
That guy's face when he thought Ultraman was going to save them. Brutal!
Huh never seen anyone but Hal as Power Ring before, this is a new one.
Most unrealistic part of this is Owlman trying to resist instead of just saying "oh finally, take me sweet death"
Agreed.
2:15 Owlman, always going out with a bang/nuke! Oh well, it doesn't matter...
I love how they all just accepted the inevitable. Owlman abandoning all logic, the expressions of the rest just saying “it doesn’t matter how much we resist, we’re going to die” and Johnny Quick realising that no matter how fast he is, it won’t be enough. He could’ve dodged that car despite his condition, but didn’t because he knew he would die anyway, and giving Barry more of the speed force in the process was his method of acceptance.
> is LITERALLY called the *ANTI-MATTER* wall.
> Ultraman: "I'm gonna punch it!!!! 👊"
1:54 Not gonna lie, she looks really good in this lighting. 😍
The sheer dumbassery of this Crime Syndicate is ridiculous...punch anti matter? throw cars at it??. Even the comic book version of Owlman and Ultramanresigned himself to their fates
Thats the point. Theres nothing they can do escape it, nothing they can do to stop it. But they try anyways. Because its all they have. Hope
Damn they really took all their brain cells when it came to these characters
They ain't gonna go out like bitches
Kinda preferred James Woods’ Owlman.
Lol
the look on superwoman's face broke me. she really accepted her fate
Power Ring is powered by his own fear. Based on how stoic he acts I see why he failed.
What people don't really see when they watch this is that the Crime Syndicate don't collectively make a plan, because they've never done that, they've always brute forced their world into submission, its all they know how to do, and its the last thing they can think to try
A lot of people are saying it would’ve been cooler if Owlman had said “It doesn’t matter” before his death but I think that kinda goes against his character here. If he truly believed that, instead of flying into the antimatter wall in a “stupid, useless gesture” he would’ve just stood where he was and waited for it to kill him
0:37 His smile reminds me of villain guys in Dragon Balls
Great movie and I'm grateful Crime Syndicate is back.
Nobody has a keener instinct for self preservation than veteran criminals. If their first plan was to throw themselves into a knowingly futile last stand... then you know the situation is grim.
Damn Superwoman be looking bad af.
You could say the same for the entire crime syndicate, they're literally the evil justice league.
Whats ironic is that Ultraman was the only one that probably could've stopped it
The whole time i saw ultra man against the wave i thought you ain't superboy prime
Hey, that's an antimatter wall... lets try to break it with matter. That's gonna work for sure.
It’s like that one time I jumped at a tornado with just a shotgun and my cunning.
this will take a portion of my cunning....NO!! no,all my cunning! 😆
They could never imagine that force wasn't the answer. All their lives force was always the answer.
Man these anti matter waves are terrifying than the ones in cw.
To be fair, a Superman punching a universal wall of anti-matter out of existence doesn’t seem all that far-fetched.
When the evil version of flash is still a good guy
This just shows Crime syndicate is a bunch of brutes and bullies. Their only logical choice was to just attack something they don’t understand.
Is Johnny quick always fated to be the only nice crime syndicate member who dies tragically
Owl “An irrational reaction to an irrational situation is a rational reaction” Man.
Why does this look like it was animated for Newgrounds?
If i had a nickle for every time, Owlman got blown up by some kind of nuke. I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.
I want a Universe where there is a Good Guy Owlman, who teams up with Batman to defeat Bad guy Batman, who also teamed with an Evil Owlman. I think it would be interesting.
I agree
The best part is, Owlman is actually Thomas Jr, Batman's brother. And yet, we barely had interactions between the two of them. In Crisis on Two Earths they didn't even know who they where under the mask.
That film was before the new 52 and now Owlman in the comics isn't Bruce brother anymore@@marygonzalez2472
Johnny Quick once again being the best bro you could ever ask for
Anti-matter wall destorying a city
"I'ma throw some cars at it"
Owlman literally said there was nothing they could do. Fighting was the only option left
Man, I did not expect to feel bad for the Crime Syndicate, holy fuck. Just the look of defeat and sadness.
A giant laser is coming and their best plan is to punch, throw cars and bomb it, man these guys are chump syndicate XD
Missing the whole point of the story, they couldn’t do anything so went out fighting
what were they supposed to do? they didnt have time to come up with anything else
Inside Owlman wanted to say "it doesn't matter"
The logic “it’s so stupid it just might work” did not apply here
it's more so the stupid decision is the only logical one left since there is nothing they can do
Nobody thought about flying off the planet
It would have delayed the inevitable
