Well, the clear negative bias for DC movies is real. What does fun but flawed mean? This is what every CBM does including the almighty Marvel. I can't yet predict the rotten score but I feel WB has done more harm than good by reducing the overall screen time to 2 hours, at least from the twitter reactions I've seen. There seem to have been an extreme editing process for Justice League as directed by WB.

I just checked up this harsh comment from Mashable and I wasn't surprised that this same Josh Dickey wrote this silly article some days ago.

SMUAG:
I SEE JL SCORING 35%-65% ON RT.... I DID SOME DIGGINGS AND FIND OUT THAT JL'S REACTIONS WASN'T REALLY BETTER THAN MOS'S REACTIONS AND MOS SCORED 55% SO I FEEL JL WONT SCORE MUCH BETTER. THOUGH, AM NOT BASING MY PERCEPTION ON ANY ONE'S CRITIQUE

bro u should've kn0wn by n0w. Its a snyder film, critics w0n't praise it. 25% score top.

THAT'S THE RESULT YOU GET WHEN YOU HAVE AN ID**t AS YOUR BOSS WHO KEEPS MEDDLING WITH YOUR WORK.
F**k WB CEO FOR CHOPPING OFF GREAT AMOUNT OF JL'S TIME.
I STILL HOPE TO SEE ZACK'S CUT SOMEDAY.....

wait till critics release their review, and watch these guys go into hiding.

Rotten Tomatoes reviews won't be released until Thursday right after WB embargo on Wednesday. Metacritic should release theirs before RT.

In another news, Zack and Deborah Snyder will be involved in creative roles for Wonder Woman 2.

Jesse Eisenberg and Joe Manganiello will appear in justice league in after credit scenes. There's a leak video flying around since yesterday though.

Detail is very important in movies. There are always specific about weight, height, facial resemblance and even language accents when selecting actors for movie roles.

I still think the review for JL would be good, am just being optimistic about this irrespective of how critics had reacted to former DCEU movies. But above all, judging from d trailers and clips, I believe for a fact that this movie is gonna be EPIC and AWESOME...as for me am ALL IN.

i hope its good. Bt the 2hr runtime isn't doing it for me.

You wanna hear spoilers?

Mostly great reviews from pre screening... People said superman has a lot to offer,more than what we expected( just coming in in the last battle) ..I'm really excited about that... There also talk about a cameo from one other superheroe ( not giving any spoilers here )

Attention seekers everywhere

Metacritic - 48%

Rotten Tomatoes should be plus or minus 10 points of Metacritic. This is a lost battle.

what? Its a snyder film bro. Were u expecting a 65% rating? 48 is a little bit too generous.

TonySpike:

come on bro, just a tiny winy little bit [winks, then releases an mischievous grin]

Some of the reviews were attacking Snyder as usual...lol. I'm not surprised though.

52/100 on metacritic

Kingrapha:
like I said it sounded generic and star warsish but I'll wait till I see the film......and Rupert gregson Williams did a remarkable job with ww... And only 15% of people remember themes, I saw ragnarok a week ago I can't remember any track.....so it's a staple to the overall film but it's not that big of a deal....DC fans react excessively over everything, you should see the comments

Well, I'm one of those 15% and IMO, if u can't remember any track from a movie's score, then A.) You really don't appreciate soundtracks
And/Or B.) The composer fvcked up.
Tracks are very, very important to a movie

Kingrapha:
zimmer retired from cbm and don't know about junkie but there has to be a reason why he was replaced.....elfman is lacking fresh ideas but that's not disputing the the fact that he's among (imo) the top 5 in the business, but once you've done so many films for so many years....you tend to get rusty..... But can we just keep the Hype train going....I feel like whenever there's one thing to be hyped about, fans find 3 things to b!tch about.... It's either Cyborg looks like megatron or Ezra looks like a power ranger or joss dumbed down the movie or steppenwolf's cgi is crappy or 2 hr runtime is stupid


. SMH

@ bolded

Guys, seriously I still can't understand how critics praised thor ragnarok and wonder woman yet bash justice league. I was right, they were easier on w0nder w0man because of the feminism thing it had going with it. But ragnarok? I can understand them praising spiderboy h0mec0ming, but ragnarok Come on!

Now I know and can testify the bias is real

The bias is sooo real, I was going through some reviews and couldn't even single out a clear reason why the movie is a let-down

Am Batman!!!!

Lets not cry wolf yet. Lets wait and see the movie before we start crying of bias. .

For a movie that has two different directors, a lot of people backing out and been fired in mid production, a whole lot of scenes and characters been cut, many reshoots, script changes and some other problems. It is difficult for me to anticipate a really good movie with all these. Truth is you can't keep changing things anyhow in any industry and expect to come up with a coherent product. Instead you'll end up creating a disaster.


I must say that either Warner Bros doesn't learn or they learn very late.
It takes months or sometimes years to develop a movie script.. Now after this, WB will start changing aspects of the plot, removing and adding characters, doing reshoots - at the end of this, you only end up with a big gaping hole in your plot. WB should allow directors develop the script as it is. No meddling is needed.
This thing plagued Batman vs Superman and Suicide squad, but they still did it in JL which means they never learnt anything.


In essence what I'm saying is that I'm expecting an average movie here. It will be fun visually because of the colours and actions, but I'm also expecting some pieces of the jigsaw to be missing because a lot have been removed or changed from the original idea of the movie.. As for the villain, I'm not even expecting a good one, cause CGI villains have always been complete rubbish irrespective of who produces it whether marvel or WB (look at Ultron from avengers 2, Apocalypse from Xmen or even or very own Enchantress and Doomsday. .. You can't compare them with human villains like Bucky from Captain America or even Ras Al Ghul from Batman Begins)
Steppenwolf in this film is just your average villain, just created to come, fight and die. He would have nothing remarkable to offer
