Can this scene ever be topped? (Justice League Spoilers)

Everything bar the spoiler is correct, I've been on the planet long enough to know this scene is why Cinema was created.
This scene was definitely the highlight of the movie for me. The Snyder Cut still has a lot of issues but it is such a massive improvement over the original. The entire last act is SO much better, it's absurd.
It's a good scene and one of the best in the movie, but every emotional scene where I am invested in the characters is obviously much better. I don't really care about any of the DCU characters and that was always the biggest flaw of Justice League.
Yup it looks silly and the slowmo is obnoxious. I get why they try to do it but quicksilver's version in X-men was MUCH more well executed. And what kinda nonsense is it to run to fast in one direction you reverse time in only a single location? Silly af
It's better than the lackluster Cap lifts hammer moment... at any rate...
Watching the scene I'm genuinely wondering if this is a serious or a sarcastic thread. To each his own, I guess.
Haven't watched the movie, but wasn't expecting it to seem that much like a CW show (with a higher CGI budget), cheese and all. The acting especially is just...wow.
It's alright. I didn't feel like that moment was really earned so it ended up feeling a bit cheesy.
Also, get that framerate interpolation the fuck outta here.
Edit: I see this was already turned into a MCU vs DCEU thread, so I don't feel guilty mentioning that MCU alone has many, many better scenes.

As far as reflective scenes in superhero comics go it's up there. Not surprising given it's the same director (for all of his faults) that brought us the similarly dreamlike (and much longer) Dr Manhattan soliloquy from Watchmen.
I got two ideas from scenes that I think are much stronger.
I feel that scene from the cartoon show where he runs so fast he goes around the globe several times has something extra this one is missing: distance. Imagine combining that with time travel, something similar to Superman in 78 going back in time.
Another thing is that he is a lone speedster, imagine if he had to run faster than someone else, a villain with his powers like Zoom. The template for the best possible showcase of racing for a Flash movie where he has to run faster than someone else already exist, it is the final lap from Speed Racer ( why have Barry talking to himself when you could have the voice of his father talking to him?). Copy Speed Racer and you top this scene.

It's a top tier superhero moment for me. Struggling to think of something better. I hope it's utilized in future flash movies.
I haven't seen the movie, so I don't want to say too much, but yeah, I agree. What's with the silly talking to himself? And the slow motion is dragging the scene out to the point of excrutiation.
