When they tried to make a joke it was just the most cookie-cutter attempt at humor possible. For example ~~When Superman and Cyborg manage to stop the cube~~ they get knocked back and are laughing at how much pain they're in and Wonder Woman goes "Children. I am working with children". She might as well have looked at the camera, shrugged her shoulders, and gave the "What are you going to do" face.

AlisLandale 05/01/18 9:04:10 AM #15:	Justice League wasnt terrible, but it can feel schizophrenic with how forced the Whedon bits are. Not that they're bad. I appreciate most of the stuff he added, but it doesnt flow naturally with Snyder's vision. People rag on Steppenwolf but he wasnt any more or less interesting than any other superhero movie villain. Like, he's easily on par with 80% Marvel villains. And the lore his presence creates was interesting. Tbh, as much as I hate Snyders take on Superman, the opening about the worlds reaction to his death was great. I think theres potential for a great DCEU with Snyder's involvement, but he needs to be limited to like, cinematography or something. --- Story Lovers Welcome! https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/1443-writers-cafe http://i.imgtc.com/YQId2Bz.png <cite>AlisLandale posted [p:900613477] in What made ...

I'd argue a lot of it actually doesn't work. Drax is funny but that bullshit they were doing where Steve Rogers gets more shit from the team for his language than Tony does for creating a genocidal robot was not funny and contributed to the overall suck of the movie. Drax is even more ridiculous in the comics. The movies are getting oversaturated. It's no real surprise that a lot of people have Winter soldier or black panther as their favorite or top tier.

EnragedSlith 05/02/18 12:04:03 AM #28:	Synder is not fit for these movies. Like, no hate, he has a unique style, but I havent seen a single movie in which it worked. If they decide to do a live action adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns, then hes a great choice, but the whole setup for the Justice League didnt leave Whedon much to work with. Im also not a big fan of Whedon. DC also tried to rush everything to compete with Marvel. Marvel, to its credit, has been goddamn methodical and patient with setting all of this up. DC was behind the curve and ran with a rushed product that lacked any payoff. On top of this, Marvel adapts better to film because its far more Saturday cartoon friendly. Superman is a difficult character to work into a rote story because hes basically infinitely powerful and completely sweeps the rest of the JL. WW and Aquaman are boring. Flash is best goofin with his relatively benign rogues gallery. That goes double for Green Arrow and Batman. Green Lantern and the Martian Manhunter are weird space guys. Im aware that not all of these heroes were represented in the movie. What may have worked better is a more grounded team with Batman, Flash, Cyborg, Green Arrow, and Black Canary. Then you introduce one of the otherworldly heroes as a major plot point to the movie. I think Id really just like to see Batman rub shoulders with the Green Arrow and Canary combo. --- ultimate milf hunter https://i.imgur.com/lCEdce6.gifv https://i.imgur.com/2N1Ezia.gifv https://i.imgur.com/ukJ6sPJ.jpg https://youtu.be/IDYaHvDiTr4 <cite>EnragedSlith posted [p:900657905] in What made ...

Wonder Woman was nice as a novelty but doesn't have longevity, and Flash/Sea Dude/Cyborg were barely characters. I disagree. I think she could easily have a trilogy of her own. She needs some better competition though. <cite>Skye Reynolds posted [p:900658279] in What made ...

Darmik 05/02/18 12:14:04 AM #34:	It's a bit of a mess but it was okay. The biggest issue is that the bar has been raised so high these days and this was supposed to be their big movie that justifies their cinematic universe. It overall failed at this goal. A lot of that is due to decisions made before and around this film. As a movie that's standalone? It's a flawed but entertaining enough experience. At least this one didn't butcher any of the characters they were adapting. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:900658324] in What made ...

Superman was his most likeable in Justice League. Like if he was in the spirit of this character from the start things might have been different. But unfortunately thanks to the previous two movies it wasn't earned and felt pretty jarring. On top of that you have weird CGI face Superman in Justice League. Biggest issues can all be traced back to BvS really. That's the moment the DCEU shit its pants. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:900658552] in What made ...

Shuto-uke 05/02/18 12:22:53 AM #42:	The biggest issue I see is that it's a clusterfuck. Hulk had his movies. Thor had his movies. Captain America had his movies Ironman had his movies. To think that marvel would eventually make these 4 successful franchises (ok, Hulk wasn't that successful, but still) parts of a single movie was mind blowing, but it was very smart. You did not have to wrestle with giving them a back story or character arch in the original avengers, we know exactly what they're about. We even knew the villain (Loki) They can simply add black widow, which is easy (Boobs!) and hawkeye, which at that point were like almost secondary, anyway. This mean the entire avengers movie can be about its own plot, action sequences and arch. Justice League tried to introduce the flash, cyborg, aquaman and wonder woman, while Batman never really had a proper introduction (he is not Christian Bale's Batman, and Batman vs Superman was not a proper Batman movie), Superman was the only guy with a proper character introduction and character arch, and he is supposed to be dead at first, anyway, so reviving him is sort of like an origin story too, distracting from the main plot, action sequences and arch. You can't have the "D.C. Avengers" without first having a proper Batman movie, a proper wonder woman movie (which we had later), a proper flash movie, a proper cyborg movie and a proper aquaman movie. Having said that, I didn't think it was bad. <cite>Shuto-uke posted [p:900658649] in What made ... [t:76566637]...</cite> <quote>The biggest issue I see is that it's a clusterfuck.
