Pretty hard agree on all these but I honestly feel the 2md Suicide Squad movie is 100 percent worth a watch. It's hilarious and Cena's Peacemaker is great. His spin off show is great as well.

    I only saw five of these, but here are my reviews:

    • Man of Steel - dumb and gray
    • Batman v Superman - awful
    • Wonder Woman - okay, until the very end, where the writers decided to throw away every theme they've been building and just have superheroes hit each other
    • Aquaman (genuinely don't remember which one) - awful
    • Birds of Prey - dumb, but kinda fun ngl

    Batman v Superman was insane. They tried to stuff like seven movies into one, and because there was no thematic consistency throughout the entire thing, it was just a hot garbled mess.

    Why would you shoehorn the death of Superman into the ending of a Batman v Superman movie?

    I liked Shazam, but not as a superhero film.

    Every time I see Heard, all I can think is, "She shits on beds! Who does that?!"

    Zionist war criminal

    Is she? I'm no fan of her and not trying to defend her in any way but that's quite the claim to out on someone's feet; there better be some evidence. Het having been in the IDF is not evidence of war crimes, that is probably even unavoidable when growing up there.

    so anyone got a link about what exactly she did?

    Joke's on you. I've been complaining about her acting since I found out everyone who played an amazon had to fake an Israeli accent because Gal Gadot, a professional actress who gets literally hundreds of thousands of dollars per movie, couldn't hide her own.

    Birds of Prey definitely started some shit online, but it was primarily the already vocal assholes of reddit and x flinging shit at each other. I heard a lot from both sides and ended up avoiding the movie completely.

    You're forgetting OP of the greentext is a 4chan regular so their social circle is probably entirely comprised of vocal assholes of reddit and x flinging shit at each other.

    Unironically used the term "chimped out"

    Either a born and bred 4chan native or a very dedicated method actor.

    You say that but I am confident nobody in this thread has seen Blue Beetle, myself included

    Haha, sorry to ruin your day, but I did see it!

    Having watched young justice (and some other DC shows) I was familiar with the hero so checked it out. It was a decently fun movie for a somewhat lesser known hero. I think the weakest part was that, like most superhero movies, the big bad was a carbon copy of blue beetle (can't recall if it was his arch nemesis Black Beetle or some other iteration).

    I'd say of the DCEU movies I've watched, it was one of the better ones.

    Birds of Prey, 'triggered a culture war,"
    

    Never heard of this in my life. And i was spending 24h a day online during covid, lol. I’m guessing anon just didn’t want to break the post’s pattern. I know the feeling.

    Personally I heard that Birds of Prey and THE Suicide Squad were amazing.

    Twitter people lied and said the Sonic movie was homophobic in order to drum up support for the Birds of Prey movie.

    Man of Steel is legit the worst Superman Movie, would rather watch Superman IV again

    I will always remember the Mauler's review of the Snyder cut. And how people keep praising the Snyder cut, even though it was actually worse.

    That made me thinking that people forget what they were watching when movies get too long. And that perhaps that's why even shows get such long episodes - Stranger things last episode of season 4: TWO hours twenty minutes??

    It's just useless shit for the sake of being there, while adding nothing important. And I hate that people respond positively to watering down the media even more.

    The Snyder cut feels less disjointed than the theatrical cut, which is all I wanted. Some movies keep their cohesion through reshoots, like fantastic four, but others do not, like red hulk and this.

    I’m never rewatching it, but I didn’t come out feeling like I just wandered through a dream sequence

    Blue Beetle is actually good. There was no marketing for it because the decision to shut down the DCEU had already been made.

    A very hot take. I'll allow it!

    Look, I was a DC stan from way back into my youth. I was so excited for the DCEU. There were nuggets of good here and there, but there were far more missed opportunities than successes due to a wild number of people who straight up did not understand the source material or the wants of the movie going public. Combined with factors that were outside of DCs control (COVID, wars, actors turning out to be pieces of shit, etc), it just did not work.

    Having said all that, James Gunn is here to save DC and give us something worthy of the source material.

    Perfect encapsulation of a shit show. I think they should of added green lantern and Ryan Reynolds cluster fuck causing him to join the MCU

    The Flash It's story wasn't an adaptation of Flashpoint but just some shitty random bullshit

    There are a lot of problems with the film, but it absolutely was an adaptation of Flashpoint. They didn't change things as wildly and focused more on the DCEU mythos, but the core story is there with a focus on Flash and his mother which was heartfelt and well done.

    Get the film out earlier, improve the CG budget, and somehow make Ezra Miller a decent person and I think it's one of the best rated DCEU films, might have even "saved" the DCEU.

    We're in a better timeline now, but what could have been.
