Current Events > There are actually people that don't even know there was a Justice League movie

(+) Yeah! (+)

and many of these watched the MCU films. Like wtf.

I was asking this person before who planned to watch WW84 if she had watched Batman v Superman. Apparently she didnt even know what that movie was about.

From what I can see, WB has only done an absolutely horrendous job in building their DCCU. The problem is the individual movies like Aquaman and WW were hardly relevant to the wider movies like BvS and Justice League. If they had included camero appearances or made other DC characters involved (eg. Spider-man Homecoming), it would have helped raised audience's awareness of the wider DCCU

my brother is close to one. he knows the movie exists but he forgets the name of it and never saw it. He has only seen like 1 of the DCEU movies I think. Man of Steel or maybe BvS. but anyway the other day I was talking to him and he was trying to mention Justice League but couldn't think of the name and he ended up calling something like "Batman League" or something like that. he doesn't really know much about comics outside the movies. I keep telling him Shazam is the best one and for him and my nephew to watch it. but he doesn't believe me

oh btw, yea you are right they suck at building their universe. they seem to have abandoned that plan anyway. WW 84 takes place decades before Justice League and BvS, but it retcons some things.

in WW84, Diana learns how to fly, but she doesn't fly in BvS and Justice League. I think they are just saying "fuck it" and doing whatever they feel like now

Aquaman and WW needed none of this since they were origin stories but could use them in the next movies

I don't blame him. Or any of them.

DC just made their movies too damn convoluted. Like how the hell do they expect people to follow when you keep changing actors... keep making prequels and sequels across diff parts of the timeline...

Aquaman was set after JL yet it was hardly obvious. WW was set before JL. WW84 again set before JL... And now a Batman movie set in IDK when and with Ben Affleck replaced.

they removed Snyder, who was the key person building the DCCU and keeping things together. MCCU had that guy (forgot his name) that was equally responsible for the MCCU.
Without Snyder at least serving as producer on WW84 and future DCCU movies, the whole thing is gonna tear itself apart with other directors jumping the gun and adding other canon-breaking s***

they should have still added more DCCU references to make audiences aware of the wider universe.

I think what ultimately cemented the MCCU was the number of subsequent Avengers movies produced. The first Avengers movie was like a wakeup call to casual movie-goers to make them realize...'hey, these movies are all connected!'. WB trying to fast forward and do Justice League instead is really a bad move.

Also lastly, I blame the film critics. They just loved dissing on Snyder and they're also very much responsible for each failure of the early DC movies like Man of Steel to Justice Leage
