DC has just released a new trailer for The Flash, and it is packed with Easter eggs from the DCEU. We bet you might have missed a few.

No sweat, we will break them all down for you.

#5 The Iconic "I'm Batman " Line

We all know that Michael Keaton has reprised his role as Batman for the first time in 31 years in the highly anticipated movie!

Keaton played the legendary character in 1989's Batman and 1992's Batman Returns, and he is famous for his "I'm Batman!" line from the first movie.

Turns out, Keaton will get to say it in The Flash too! Frankly, we got chills from that very obvious moment in the trailer, but still, we wouldn't have forgiven the writers if they hadn't given Keaton his time to shine once again.

#4 General Zod's Consistency

If there is one thing we know about General Zod, it is that his ideas are downright dumb. In 2013's Man of Steel, he wants to terraform Earth into Krypton 2.0.

In a now-controversial move, Superman simply snaps his neck to stop him, but that is still better than Zod's ill-conceived plan.

In the trailer, Flash encounters the newly-restored Zod in an alternate reality, and guess what he is trying to do.

Sure enough, he is still aiming to destroy Earth. Couldn't you think of something new to do in 10 years, Zod?

#3 "S" Still Means Hope

This underrated moment from Man of Steel is certainly making a comeback. Back in 2013, Lois Lane asked Clark Kent what the "S" symbol on his suit stood for, and he explained that in his world, it symbolized hope.

The trailer brings that quote back (and we can't handle it). Supergirl asks The Flash if he knows what the "S" means, and he reluctantly gives her the right answer. This is just too much!

#2 Let's Get Nuts, Shall We?

Second place goes to this awesome line from 1989's Batman. Keaton delivered it so flawlessly that we still can't get over it.

It is only fair that Batman is the one who says it in The Flash. This movie is going to be just a nostalgic rollercoaster ride, isn't it?

#1 Nobody Dies or Everybody Dies?

Issue #54 of The Flash introduces an important rule that the character seems to follow – nobody dies. Simple enough, right? Also, pretty standard for the superhero genre and refreshing at the same time.

Well, this rule is echoed in the new trailer where The Flash seems to be arguing with himself and says, "Nobody dies!" Judging by the overly dramatic trailer, we are honestly not sure if Barry is going to be able to follow his own rule…
