ill try it
Watched this cartoon yesterday. Just, so sad. I feel bad for the actors - they could have been good but the universe set up around them has been a bad joke. I hope they were well compensated on pay-day.
Seems kinda silly that the Justice League had to get together to battle Steppenwolf. If they'd had Superman from the start he'd have posed no problem....in fact I don't see why Wonder-Woman couldn't take him down by herself. The stakes seemed much higher in Man of Steel - Superman against multiple Kryptonians AND 2 world engine machines, Metropolis got ****ing wiped out, countless lives lost. Christ the DCCU really did this arseways.
I don't think audience reactions to MOS or BVS were wrong. But the course corrections they took were just so jarring. If you start off your universe with a grim and serious tone and relatively realistic visuals then shift to video-game cut scene visuals and comedy further in - when surely things should have been getting more serious as threats (theoretically) got more serious....sigh..as I said, utterly backwards. They just didn't have a clue. I say drop the whole thing. Full reboot or give it a break for a few years.
