This week on The First Run, Matt and Chris bear witness to the last desperate gasps before the death rattle of the DCEU with ‘Blue Beetle’. Is this the definitive entry of the DCEU, the yardstick in which all the other entries are measured against? Maybe, maybe not, who gives a shit at this point. As always, they run down the big releases on physical media, give you their straight to dvd and streaming picks of the week then wrap up this episode with their five favorite legacy superheroes. It’ll make sense at the time, I promise. Let’s fire up the DCEU franchise for its penultimate entry with Blue Beetle.
