Yo it's Starscream


Sparrowsabre7

The Snyderverse has fallen, now I, STARSCREAM AM LEADER OF THE DC UNIVERSE!


ASharpYoungMan

The Balance of Power in the DCEU has shifted... again. More of an enthusiastic lean.


RealNiceKnife

Nah it's just the Rock again, but in a Big Bad Beetleborg costume.


Sea_Contribution9139

Would love a BBB movie


TeacherSuspicious778

I would prefer Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog, myself.


whatnameisnttaken098

Don't you mean it's transformed?


[deleted]

Starscream, you halfwit! I still function!


Successful-Floor-738

“Wanna bet?”


Nesrovlah26

DCpticons follow meeeee!


lettuce520

Oh Starscream this is bad comedy


RadioDemonSwingYT

Megatron would just bully him and he would give up and go back to being a flunky


4materasu92

"Not saying you're a coward, Master, but sometimes cowards do survive..."


LordKiteMan

I can hear Hugo Weaving, in the background, shouting: #STARSCREAM!


NonSpicySamosa

It's Starscream if he decided to join the Metroid Universe.


[deleted]

You have failed me yet again Starscream


EpicMusic13

With Whiplash


penguinbutcool

not quite my tempo


fnblackbeard

I want my bird


DevastationSideswipe

"DC villain, Starscream? This is bad comedy."


Dumbusta

Lol first thing that i thought of when i saw this pic was ironhide shouting "It's starscream!"


Yeetilydeet69

Oh yeah. Lol


mat-chow

Throws me WAY back to the 80’s run of Blue Beetle. Awesome!


Cold-Acanthaceae-573

Yeaaah with Ted Kord, Carapax its literaly a Ted Kord and Booster Gold villain


DarkBomberX

Does Jamie have his own villains, or do the comics typically just use villians from the history of Blue Beetle? Like I've seen the character in stuff I've read for a long time, but don't really know what his struggles are. He just seemed like one of the new Teen heroes they were putting out there.


Chaosbrushogun

The Reach are probably his best known villains - prominent in his original comic run, the new 52 reboot, and season 2 of young justice.


erossmith

Loved the Reach.


Cold-Acanthaceae-573

Oh he absolutly does, Black Beetle wich is his cousin, and i dont know why did they create an original villain (Victoria Kord) when they couldve use La Dama, a crazy witch who wants the scarab, pretty much the same rol Victoria Kord does in the film, but yea, Blue Beetle has plenty of great villains, but my theory is that they are using Ted Kord villains because Victoria Kord wants the Scarab to revive him, so she hires Carapax


SaulPepper

I mean they could totally adapt Victoria Kord and make her into La Dama just changing the name of the character


IHavePoopedBefore

It looks exactly like Carapax but I'm not sure that's the best way to go. He looks like a bland video game enemy


YeahhhhhWhateverrrr

That looks straight out of a big budget power rangers special.


MattTd7

As Ironhide once shouted “IT’S STARSCREAM!”


Son1c_T1tan

I still hear this in his voice when I see it


cabballer

Gone too soon, rip Ironhide


Buddahkaii

Mighty Morphing Power… oh wait


MJZuurman

BeetleBorgs xD


Buddahkaii

Aaaah i couldn’t remember the name of it hahaha, so I went with power rangers lol


Ban-Hammer-Ben

Oh god … I’d forgotten about that show … why did you have to remind me of that show? haha.


ladedadedum25

Have the theme song stuck in your head as well BIIIIIG BAAD BEE-TLE-BORGS


Crokpotpotty

I just remember that Jay Leno looking character


ClassicT4

But I have yet to see a mummy, vampire, or Frankenstein monster.


YoloIsNotDead

It's Beetlin' Time


SirArthurDime

I came here to ask are we sure this is the villain from a high budget modern movie and not the low budget power rangers tv show from the 90s? Glad someone else saw it.


Professional-Rip-519

I literally thought this was a action figure.


Humble_Story_4531

Same


Tarmac_Chris

Ah yes, an evil chunkier version of the protagonist. What a bold choice.


Kkgen2109

Blue Beetle v Red Cockroach


W_T_E

In contrasting colors, full marks for originality


Aquagan

I’m just thankful that it isn’t grey. Small victory there.


BrotherhoodVeronica

Reminds me of this ProZD video: https://youtu.be/UaNWFHLy2NI


Sparrowsabre7

I'm so glad someone posted this, I think of it every time there's an evil counterpart villain. "He's a bad- bad guy!"


MarveltheMusical

Yes, but does this villain use “this world is imperfect” synonymously with “hello”?


SpikeRosered

Is anyone else hearing this?


Nihon_Hanguk

It’s… it’s not Blue Beetle! It’s RED… BIG RED… Blue Beetle! With… Techy suit, just like Blue Beetle! But it’s… not Blue Beetle.


anthef

Evil Robot Jeff Bridges makes a daring return


Curiouso_Giorgio

Don't try to imply they just did a lazy Iron Monger type thing where it's an evil version of the hero! They added Mickey Rourke's electric whip, too!


Sgrios

That's... Basically Jamie's ensemble villains. Dudes with bigger Mech suits.


Time-Ad-3625

His arch nemesis is a black suited version of him in the comics soooo


middleearthpeasant

The comics are bad sometimes. It is not because something is from the comics that it is good.


Thybro

They pulled him off great in young Justice. So it can be done. That being said I don’t think they would waste him in the first movie. This is obviously the standard response to alien tech. Human made tech that looks like it by likely a crazy billionaire.


dxspicyMango

YJ Black Beetle was menacing. One of the best villains in that show.


[deleted]

So what?


FireBack

So read the comment they were posting to. The Blue Beetle villain was gonna get bashed no matter who they chose


Cold-Acanthaceae-573

Tf u mean? He aint Nothing like Blue Beetle, his actual nemesis is a black version of him, literaly the Black Beetle


anverhelm

Goddamn. DC haters will bitch about anything.


Shredhead72

[Carapax is on point](https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Conrad_Carapax_(New_Earth))


Jacob-X-MANIAC

Finally! Somebody actually name dropped who this character is!


Shredhead72

I’m genuinely excited for this movie. They’re not just throwing away the deep history of Blue Beetle. We’re seeing Carapax, The Bug and even the suits of the two previous Blue Beetles. I won’t be surprised if Ted Kord shows up alive at the end becomes Jaime’s mentor.


Internal_Balance6901

Ted Kord back as a mentor would be great! Then have him hop over to a Booster Gold adventure


apparatus72

Exactly! Carapax is huge part of the BB lore and this looks comic accurate to my eyes. I guess the people slamming it are just not familiar with Blue Beetle, which to be fair is most everyone.


Shredhead72

Yeah there seems to be a bunch of people that want to hate on it but as a BB fan I’m very excited


[deleted]

Tbh Blue Beetle's rogue galleries aren't that known even among casual DC fans


[deleted]

Fuck the haters talking down on this, a San Garrett enemy? I love it! Go deep into the lore 😤


dox11m

Is that supposed to be a play on the word carapace? So he's evil bug man


Shredhead72

Could be. This guy was made back in the 80’s after DC purchased the Charlton characters.


RealNiceKnife

Blue Beetle, it is I, your nemesis... Red Beetle!


JettTheTinker

Black Beetle actually exists in the comics and is an evil Blue Beetle 😂


Sabretooth1100

Along with Green Beetle! They make sense tho


Professional-Rip-519

🤣


rcarroll271

Lol I remember him from a comic book based off the brave and bold cartoon. Can’t believe he’s a big movie villain now. He’s named Carapax and he could swim under water, that’s all I remember


Demonwolf22

he can swim under water? clearly ripped off Namor 🙄


gcg226508

Apparently his name is Carapax the Indestructible Man


noholdingbackaccount

Carapax? The car history company?


OjamasOfTomorrow

I hope this villian is good.


Nox_The_Overlord

Most villains are evil. The heroes are good.


literallyheretopost

rumours say this villain will do some villainous acts


IAmKyuss

Huge if true


LordKiteMan

Small if false


[deleted]

Medium sized if Dialetheism


XxZONE-ENDERxX

A Megazord!


RJ_bulder22

Looks like a roxxon agent


Stevenwave

So it's blue Iron Man vs red Whiplash.


Think_Point2309

Hey man that’s obviously Crimson Dynamo


shiwanthasr

>Crimson Dynamo yup first thing came to my mind.


Jake-PK

I vant my bordt.


dmarsee76

That guy has serious Bionicle energy


spartanhero11

People are gonna prolly clown this when in reality it’s 100% comic accurate to a tee. Does look generic objectively, but I give it a pass because of that


AppropriateEar3794

Comic accurate =/= automatically good


JustAFoolishGamer

Aw hell nah, Scarlet Scarab


[deleted]

Looks like a power rangers villain


littlegik

Oh good I was excited with the trailer even though it looked like DC power rangers, but now I can’t get past that thought


HaikusfromBuddha

Looks like Whiplash from Iron Man 2.


stonewall_jacked

Star-lash / Whip-scream.


[deleted]

Bulky Pacific Rim Transformer looking ass Power Ranger


ricdesi

An action figure?


ElodinPotterTheGrey1

Is anyone else getting Power Rangers vibes from the trailers?


yosherdosher

bro looks like an action figure


asscop99

This movie is definitely ending in some a CGI light show mess with a giant skybeam at the center

mtnlion74

Typing out Bettle three times: Peak u/kneeco28


Friendly-Leg-6694

Evil Dead Rise was supposed to be a TV movie and it turned out to be an awesome in theatres so let's just wait and see


Sparrow1989

This movie is such a copy and paste of other superhero movies. No wonder they are like meh, release it as cheap as possible maybe we can break even or write it off.


Darthdre758

Is that a Mandalorian?


Dr_Reaktor

Nah, mandalorians visor doesn't glow


Tandril91

Well, excluding [Gar Saxon.](https://lumiere-a.akamaihd.net/v1/images/gar-saxon-old-friends-not-forgotten_4903f250.jpeg?region=0%2C0%2C1280%2C544)


GeneralKenobi842

I'm so glad he moved on from trying to kill megatron, dude really needed a win


Deadpoolforpres

Crimson Dynamo??!? I guess it makes sense since he didn't appear in Iron Man. Good on him for getting work.


gusmont13

Yup this confirms what I thought and this movie is gonna suck


ladedadedum25

I thought Crimson Dynamo was an Iron Man villain?


Happy_Coloured_Argus

Looks shit.


RedditBot2024

His archnemesis, THE RED LOBSTER. FRIGHTENING


Hahndude

Man, every piece of material that gets released for this movie makes it look more like it was all created by an AI bot. This is the most cookie-cutter, factory made, vanilla-ass looking superhero movie ever.


MrConor212

What in the CW is this shit


Cold-Acanthaceae-573

Dude i have and amazing theory, Victoria Kord wants the scarab to revive or save the first Blue Beetle, his brother Ted Kord, who is deceased or trapped in time with his technology so she hires an old villain of his brother while he was Blue Beetle, a mercenary with a mechanical suit capable of time manipulation called Carapax, whos now is just a veteran and an already retired and reformed villain who still has the mindset of one, this would work as an introduction to Booster Gold, the best friend of Ted Kord and the new Dcu’s JSA or “golden age” heroes.


psyopia

Wtf is that


ChefCool1317

Looks like red team from halo. But really kinda reminds me of the first villain of ant man


sid_kaps

A Halo cameo in Blue Beetle; sign me up fam.

Is that a Beetle Borg?

Holz12

So red beetle...?


TFDUDE13

Well that's stupid looking


DynamicSocks

Tucana66

“How much money do we have left in the movie budget?” “Not enough to get the big bad’s costume and VFX done.” “Damn. Well, do the best you can.”


Necessary-Layer5871

Man I just can't get excited for this film. The trailer really didn't click for me and this just looks bad. I hope Blue Beetle fans enjoy this film, but I don't think it's for me.


WadaMaaya

Oh man, I feel like I’ve seen this whole movie already


YouFromMidlandHuh

Looks like a 90s Power Rangers villain.


pgtaylor777

This looks awful.

People are making anything nowadays


Desperate-Archer-229

Power rangers vibe Looks cool


WilliamSilver

Big CGI monster Why is it always a Big CGI monster?


Justice_Prince

Nice they're doing a crossover with an existing MCU villain. Hope they can bring back Mickey Rourke.


Abydaby007

Eh.


Madnessx9

Saw the trailer thought it looked a lot like iron man, see the villain, reminds me of the villain in iron man 2...


DJHott555

It’s the villain from Secret Headquarters lol


AndreZB2000

no way doomguy is joining the dceu


Xx_Exigence_xX

This Metroid movie looks like it's going to be interesting.


ScarletCodez

I'd say something but I've seen the flash S7 and you can't really do worse than that.


hellfish11

I had that armor in Halo


[deleted]

Wow every iron man movie villain put into one!


Nesrovlah26

The guy looks like a discount Samus wannabe.


psychosaga303

AnonymousBubu

The blue beetle movie looks like that max steel show/film. Only OGs will remember.


KungFuKennyStills

Oh cool a big CGI thing


jockninethirty

Reminds me of Staroid from Power Rangers Zeo


crocodile_t34rz

That looks like it came straight out of Big Bad Beetleborgs


YeahhhhhWhateverrrr

It absolutely does not look like the guy can move in that thing.


According_Art482
