DC Animated Movie Universe - Timeline

Why would it be set in the same year as Beware My Power? I take it that when there is no timeline indication it is in the year of release.

I usually look at it like this: Unless the films explicitly reveal a time jump, then they are the same year until evidence shows otherwise.
 
Can you please explain this reasoning?

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox
Chapter 8 (1:14:42 - 1:17:47)
 
Hey everyone, new to this forum. First time watching all these great DC animated movies... I'm currently in the middle if "Justice League Dark".

The amount of work that was put into creating the timeline is admirable and appreciated greatly! That being said, I've also used the timeline from a user from another forum (https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-r...share=c598475f&srid=u4lOhr&target_type=answer) but this is just one user (Alex Din) where in this forum, besides the magnificent work of DIrishB, various users added important additions to the timeline.

I decided (as best and clumsy as I can) to "merge" both and would greatly appreciate your opinion and any modifications that you would suggest.

Wow, nice work! I actually did something similar myself. I like what you've done here. Check mine out and let me know if you have any questions. I'd be happy to help!

Are these Earth #s canon?

I didn't really finish the list. I have to confess that I haven't seen most of the DC animated movies, so I just wanted to watch them first and then update the list with more knowledge, but I keep forgetting about them.
 
This Crisis movie could be incredible IF done properly. It needs to take it's time, be multiple films, each at 3 hours a piece. The references and cameos need to be full meaty appearances from the various DC animated series and movies and not crappy three second member-berry moments...I'm not holding my breath. I'm expecting a single 75 min movie that mainly features the current DTV League with a few small nods, winks and references to other existing universes similar to what we saw in "The Flash" movie.

Yeah, It could be amazing if they "connect" every animated universe like the Live Action Crisis of the Arrowverse did
 
I think it'll probably be a DCAMU/Tomorrowverse crossover. It seemed like Constantine: House of Mystery was teasing something, so John is probably acting as Pariah perhaps.
 
Are these Earth #s canon?
Yes and no.

Earth-1 - Tomorrowverse
Reasoning: Flash calls it Earth-1.

Earth-2 - Justice Society: World War II
Reasoning: Flash calls it Earth-2.

Earth-3 - Crime Syndicate Universe
Reasoning: Comic Multiverse counterpart is Earth-3.

Earth-12 - DC Animated Universe
Reasoning: Comic Multiverse counterpart is Earth-12.

Earth-16 - Young Justice
Reasoning: Confirmed Earth-16, though supposedly in one of the comic multiverses - certain things make this seem questionable though.

Earth-23 - Batman: The Brave and the Bold
Reasoning: Confirmed Earth-23.

Earth-31 - Year One/The Dark Knight Returns
Reasoning: Comic Multiverse counterpart is Earth-31.

Earth-50 - Justice Lords Universe
Reasoning: Comic Multiverse counterpart is Earth-50.

Earth-66 - Return of the Caped Crusaders/vs. Two-Face
Reasoning: Earth-66 in the DC Live-Action Multiverse.

Earth-AD - Kamandi: The Last Boy on Earth!
Reasoning: Comic Multiverse counterpart is Earth-AD.

Earth-Prime - DC Animated Movie Universe
Reasoning: Comic Multiverse counterpart is Prime Earth.

5th Dimension - Teen Titans Go!
Reasoning: Fan Theory on how this ties into various multiverses and contradicts itself.
 
Why would it be set in the same year as Beware My Power? I take it that when there is no timeline indication it is in the year of release.
Do we know how much time is set between Beware My Power And Legion Of Superheroes? I just feel like unless a time jump is explicitly revealed, it's safer to assume the films are closer together.
 
To follow up on this, I don't think placing a film in it's year of release is entirely accurate. I believe Legion could absolutely be placed in 2022 soon after Green Lantern. I haven't seen Warworld yet so not sure if there are any timeline references.
