DC sucks in general, so it probably does.

just saw it,

its a meh.

Ben Affleck trying his best to sabotage the movie but the rest of the Justice League crew is actually pretty good, especially Aquaman.

Just don't like Zack Snyder movies, and this is a classic Zack Snyder movie for better and for worse.

5.5/10

i don't think it was as bad as they're saying it was. Affleck took a step back from BVS but still wasn't that bad, Mamoa was decent gadot was decent flash was decent bordering on meh. Cyborg had a story arc. I'd say the movie was worth it.

DCEU really needs someone with a real long term vision, like Kevin Feige for MCU, spearheading their projects.

They already fucked up by skipping the solo movies for Batfleck, Flash and Cyborg and jumping straight to a team up. These solo movie for Batman and Flash didn't even have to be origin stories since the Nolan trilogy and the TV show already gave them a base for the casuals. This would've helped Suicide Squad as well, since those baddies would've could've been used in the solo movies before having them eventually team up in SS. This would've added more depth to their characters. Instead, WB basically threw a hail mary on their first play desperately hoping for a 20pt TD so they can catch up to MCU.

Fortunately the upcoming Flash Point movie gives them a chance to fix a lot of their issues. But this is Warner Bros, so they'll inevitably make it worse.

Why John Jones the Martian Manhunter gets no love? Hell, his stuff was always stuck in the back of a Superman or Batman, all 4/5 pages.

He did belong to the legit JLA with Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Arrow, Aquaman, Green Lantern, Superman, Batman. He was actually only inferior to Superman in powers.

This flick diesn't rev my engines at all, and I am a fantasy, sword & sorcery, comic book hero fan.

Lin Carter's...Thongor...saga and the Elric of Melniborne (Albino with a vampire blade Stormbringer) epic by Brit Michael Moorcock, would be perfect for the big screen.

Rassler Roman Reigns (shave beard) would make the perfect Conan.

Man wtf happened to Snyder
I enjoyed tha fuck outta 300, and I thought Sucker Punch was underrated. Now he's a flopping joke.
10 years to go from one of the best up and comers to a total joke. Smh.

Wasn't great, wasn't necessarily bad either. One those "there are much worse ways to spend an afternoon" movies. If you are a casual fan of the genre you will get what you are looking for.

Saw Thor this weekend. I felt like I was watching a live comic book. They were cracking jokes the whole time and had a bit of an 80s sci-fi vibe too. It was a good time watching this flick.

All the DC movies are so serious. They need to lighten up a ton.

They actually did lighten up JL because all of the DC movies are so edgy and dark...that being said, I agree with benefactor, it wasnt great, but it wasnt terrible. if you were looking for a way to kill an afternoon with your girl/family/whatever, not a bad movie to see imo

In most cases, a box-office debut approaching $100 million in North America would be cause for celebration.

But at Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment, no one was popping open the champagne to toast*Justice League, the big-budget superhero mashup that opened domestically*to a sobering $96 million over the weekend*after once having grand ambitions of matching rival Marvel's*The Avengers*series....

Was Sucker Punch good, really? I've watched it three times and every time I come off entertained with the action but the lack of an actual plot is pretty glaring.

300 holds up pretty well, but the second one is trash- I thought that when I saw it in theaters.

Watchmen, Man of Steel, and Batman Vs. Superman all have good action scenes but he movies are all meh for me.

If that is their idea of a light DCU movie then that's a pretty bad attempt, not very funny and the Flash got repetitive after a while. Aquaman was surprisingly good but the movie was mediocre.

Even some of the the darker MCU movies like Captain American 2 & 3 still have subtle humor mixed into the seriousness that doesn't seem like desperate attempts at laughter.

Thought Thor was fucking great tbh. 4th on my comic book rankings behind Captain American Winter Soldier, Captain American- Civil War & Logan

Thor was awesome. Maybe top 5 on my MCU list.

I had a few minor problems with it, like how loki is just a lame street magician compared to Strange, why the big funeral for Thor mom but not dad or fighting buddies, where's lady Sith (?), and what happened to the eternal flame?

Here's my thing; most movies suck on DVD. You go to the theater for the big screen and surround sound that enhances these otherwise shitty movies. That said, would anyone still not recommend seeing Justice League for under $10?

Also, more people are telling me Thor is better. Thoughts?

Fuck that movie.. as soon as I saw Batman's little "ears" or whatever the fuck they are I was done

I thought it was decent. Entertaining. CGI could have been better.

Whenever I watch a DC movie I try not to compare it to the Marvel stuff too much because Marvel obviously are light years ahead.

No Deadpool? That was a great one.

Though Deadpool is a Marvel character, he isn't part of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) which is why I didn't include it. Instead of Disney/Marvel, I believe Fox owns the film rights to characters such as Deadpool, Wolverine, the X-Men and Fantastic Four. But I agree, it was a fun movie.
