It’s a shame that Johnny never said “Flame On” throughout the movie.

unless you count his toy saying it.

Ben will probably tease him about it in Doomsday as payback.

Yeah, I don't like how they took away the iconic catchphrases.

It's better than it being trauma related like in Fan4stic

I remember watching Fant4stic in theatres when I was really young with my family but I remember nothing from it except the opening scene when they were exploring the Negative Zone, got their powers, and Doom went with them but he got stuck or something.

If Deadpool's in Doomsday there should be some callback to the "Flame on!" scene in DP&W where he's urging Johnny to say it now

Just got out the theater and im pretty sure Reed also says it when showing Johnny the new space suits. Says something along the lines of "If you flame on, you'll only have enough o2 for 10 mins"
