Piracy of movies has always been a major concern for studios and it appearsThe Flashtoo isn’t immune to it, even though the film is still in its second week. Twitter user @BriYoshFR, whose account has been suspended now, recently leaked the entire 2 Hours 24 Minutes Movie on Twitter, as a result of the perks of having a Twitter Blue subscription. Although the film was entirely taken down, considering that it was uploaded in the early hours of Sunday, it managed to pull around 1.7M views throughout its span of 8 hours.
Reflecting on the situation and the movie’s poor box office performance, fans haven’t stopped taking jabs at the film while joking about the entire fiasco.

The future forThe Flashsequel doesn’t appear bright
BeforeThe Flashmade its initial debut at the box office with an underwhelming $55M opening, there were reports of a sequel being in the talks. However, in order to greenlight a sequel for the scarlet-speedster, the movie had to make big numbers at the box office likeThe Batman‘s collection of $771 million. But with the film struggling to compete againstSpider-Man: Across the Spider-Verseand currently sitting at $210.9 million, the future of the sequel seems to be washing off.

Although the current box-office numbers are a bit worrying for a sequel to the Miller-led film, at least the film was able to conclude the struggling DCEU in a great manner. And despite some of its flaws and controversies around its lead, the film did provide a great experience and is definitely one of the better films to come out of this universe.
The Flashis currently running in theatres.
