DC Extended Universe / DC Universe - Timeline

Clearly Flash was surprised by George Clooney Batman, so who's to say he didn't go back and try to fix things? I feel that, at the very least, the flashpoint was originally intended to create the DCU, but since it's clearly different in The Flash, he could've just gone back to try and fix things after Escape the Midnight Circus. He could've also lost his powers at some point trying to fix this, leading to a different Flash in the DCU. It's advertised as a soft reboot to the DCEU, so time travel shenanigans seem like the most likely option to me, if at the very least done by any time traveller - not just Flash
 
I think the Clooney thing was put in specifically so that it wasn't a tease for the future and they could start their reboot with a clean slate.

I feel they were clearly trying to establish a new universe with slight changes with that scene, which by definition is the DCU - but agree to disagree
 
Can we all agree that Aquaman: King of Atlantis is a branched DCEU branched timeline, a bit like Justice League (2017)? I've seen the whole thing before, it's really wild. They confirmed it's not canon and, well, Ocean Master's history is quite a bit different to what we see in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (assuming no timeline shenanigans fucked things up).

I mean, it works as an insanely silly, outlandish out-of-continuity sequel to Aquaman. I do think that Aquaman is a bit stronger in that universe though... uh... he holds the planet together? XD

I like to head-canon all the non-canon DCEU content like Justice League, Aquaman: King of Atlantis and Black Adam Precursor Part 1-2 as the Knightmare timeline just so that it has somewhere to go. Admittedly, it'd be pretty weird if someone watched the DCEU for the first time and started with Justice League. Obviously completely made up though, there's no relation.

personally i view josstice league as pre-arrowverse crisis dceu and zsjl as post-crisis, and i do view koa as a branch follow-up to the first aquaman; i guess it can fit in the knightmare timeline?

Pretty sure on @Pro Bot 's watch order for the DCEU/Conjuring (posted in the Slasherverse thread) they put it in the Knightmare timeline, yeah
