Lately, you've been coming across as an envious fellow.. Hope it's paying off for you..
seriously i d0n't understand what u guys mean by envy. Is it envy if u point out the bias critics have against s0me products when reviewing it? If it was, then i guess envy made martin luther or malcolm x fight for blacks' rights in america. These critics favor s0me products bt if other products produce s0mething different, they bash it and wish they made it like the favoured product. And if they did the exact thing, they trash it despite having praised the former for same fault. These are c0mm0n tropes that need to be pointed out so people will kn0w their view is what matterz instead of the views of opini0n leaderz. Envy is when i start hating the avengers or a product cos of the m0ney it makes. Am n0t envious, and bro drop this marvel/dc thingy, i d0n't do such. You needn't reply me when i gave my review of JL, rather u drop ur alternative opini0n of it. I stated mine, u weren't forced to accept it.

lol. Aside the cgi mustache thingy, i really enjoyed Henry cavill's portrayal of supes in JL. He smiled when situati0n called for it. I guess any0ne would be happy waking up to meet his hot girlfriend by his side after m0nths of been away or dead. The thought of even going back to bang her after the stress would make any0ne happy. If i was supes, and my 1st sight after rising fr0m the dead with n0 weight on my shoulderz was Lois Lane, i'd be happy. Supes indeed had reas0ns to be happy in JL unlike what people wanted in MOS and BvS with0ut caring if the story called for it.

Looks like WB is dumping Joss Whedon following rum0rs he w0n't be directing batgirl. Seriously, do we need a batgirl film? Sorry to the feminists in the house [am also a feminist] but we d0n't need one.

Just watched Jleague, story felt a bit rushed- straight to the point, no dilly dalling around. Stephenwolf looked good to me until the final battle (superman did a number on him). And superman finally looked liked a beacon of hope he was meant to be. Overall enjoyable- resurrection part was hands down the best scene in the movie. I wish some scenes weren't cut from the final version. 7.5/10 for me.

I concur. The resurrection and subsequent fight scenes between the League was awesome.

Critics: DC films are too slow, dark and depressive, no one wants to watch them.

Enters WB: We'll make it lighter and humorous

Critics: Justice league is flawed fun. Tries to be funny but not as funny as Thor Ragnarok.

Synder certainly has more fans than assumed. Someone wrote that WB course-corrected DCEU at the expense of their actual fan base and got an opening weekend financial turd. The real hard core DCEU fans go for multiple viewings at the cinema and are now asking for the full movie in protest.

About 99,000 fans have signed the petition the last time I checked, as for Warner Bros they don't really care what the fans want they just wanted to appease the critics and make money not thinking it would backfire

Just saw JL and the movie was great. Steppenwolf bossed it and he was easily beaten because obviously he didn't have the backing of the entire apokolips and Darkseid. Superman's battle with the Justice League squad was mad, if not for Louis he would have killed them all. Amazing he could catch up with flash, his relationship with flash best part of the movie. Overall I'll give it 8/10.

jealous of ir0n man 2 villain? Why would i be jealous? Its a m0vie man n0t like my life depends on it or anything. I aint being paid self so why would i envy any c0mpany? What i pointed out in my short review is the level of critical backlash facing DC films by critics whereas other films are given the soft spot. Look at the ghostbusters female film, whiplash in ir0n man 2 and tell me those films deserve the level of praise they got. They make these films lo0k like they are disasters when there are s0me that are outrightly bad but given a pass. Drop this marvel/dc thingy, do u think steppenwolf or jl deserved the bashing it got?
it didn't steppenwolf was a good villain and fit for uniting the league, critics just have it out for Snyder

DC just need to decide on what side they want to stick to, either to the critics or vision of their directors. But, I'm sure if they keep up with their vision, critics will one day succumb to it.

Honestly, I am shocked that an old and well-established movie organisation like Warner Bros can fail this simple test. All they care about is money, money and money! They fail to realise that branding a product takes a lot of time, resources and pain.

this movie tanking so hard...
Justice League has the lowest domestic opening weekend of the entire DCEU, and the lowest domestic opening weekend of any live-action superhero movie..
$300m spent making this movie.
will be lucky if it makes $1bn.
marvel truly are the kings of box offices...Thor ragnarok has already made close to $800m against a budget of 180m...
I can't imagine how much infinity war will make...I'm predicting close to $2b.

Justice league is looking like a movie that's about to blow up at the box office. I firmly believe that more than 300 million was spent on production, yet look at how it's struggling. Even batman vs superman made more money in its first weekend than justice league has made so far. .

Right now the 1billion target is really far fetched

I seriously can't understand what is wrong with the justice league movie. DC has a lot of fans whom I thought will lap up the justice league movie but the reverse is the case.
It seems like people judged the movie harshly even before seeing it.

Stepphenwolf actually had more scenes but these were cut to accommodate the movie time. Thanks to WB.

"JUST THE ACTUAL REALITY FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS BETTER"

You know, there comes a time in life where you believe something great is going to happen, you are so sure of it, and then when it comes around you get entirely dismayed and disappointed. This is one of of those times for dc and warner bros. (and the third time in two years). Justice league was supposed to be their ultimate movie of the year, the movie everyone would remember and the movie, most importantly, that would bring in the big bucks. Nothing could stop it, nothing was powerful enough to block the dream, nothing, except of course, rotten tomatoes (…and kevin tsujihara, that meddling motherfucker). Rotten tomatoes to warner bros. is like your 3-year old step-son, that thing you own only 30% of, and yet can mess really shitty with your work, and it doesn’t help the fact that rotten tomatoes was going to show the rating of their big film in the midnight of the day that big film was going to premiere through a facebook show no one needed in an effort to rake in viewers, something they did with even a Bad Mom’s Christmas, and yet did nothing when speculations were running around saying it was Warner bros.’s doing to delay the ratings of justice league, which not only tarnished the image of warner bros., but also the image of justice league after the ratings came out.

Rotten tomatoes’ influence is something no one should ignore. While it is only a platform for opinions expressed by critics, many people see it as a legit platform used to actually rate if movies are good or bad. RT itself knows this very well, and while some reports say RT doesn’t affect a movie’s box office reciepts, we know that’s not entirely true. Batman vs superman was a movie poised to make a billion in box office, surely we all know that it was RT that made it not to, and then look at justice league, 93.8 mill domestically and 185 mill foreign, the movie had the lowest opening weekend of a DCEU movie, and I am pretty sure it wasn’t because of danny elfman’s soundtrack that it made that low (not entirely sure but 80% sure, that’s solid, right?). Now most may say 93.8 mill is much, they would be right, but they forget that Justice league is not only a superhero movie ( a genre that is already too big to fail), but it is an ensemble of the most iconic superheroes, avengers made 200 mill domestically, you see the difference.CA22

Now RT screwed justice league big time with all their shenanigans and made it worse when they rated justice league at 46%( it is now at 37%, mind you). But that wasn’t the end, as if they were waiting, many critic blogs, after the rating’s release, came out bashing the movie, saying it was ridiculous, CGI was terrible, acting was terrible, gal gadot couldn’t save it and shit like that. Before the rating was released, however, many blogs said all it had were CGI, narration and villain problems and it was overall a good film to watch, before RT it’s IMDb ratings was 8.5/10, after RT, it dropped to 7.9/10 and is now currently at 7.4/10 (mind you, wonder woman has a 7.6/10, so does logan and they both have 92% rating on RT, which makes you wonder how justice league was given a 46% rating and only for that number to drop) which shows you how much influence RT has not only on audiences but also critics. RT knows about this influence, and they just don’t know about it, they outright exploit it. I watched the see it/skip it show, and as a critic platform, instead of them to talk about the good and bad sides of a movie and say it’s overall stance, they emphasized ( and exaggerated) only on the bad side of Justice league, even accusing the film of sexualising wonder woman because it showed a scene of her butt ( a scene, mind you about her quacking a man behind her, which inevitably means they will have to show her butt, but i guess that’s offensive to Jacqueline, segun and RT) and marvel shows butt scenes of superheroines all the time, but i guess that’s a no problem for them. For those thinking disney and marvel are behind, they are not, they have nothing to loose if dc has great movies, it’s all RT’s intention to exert their influence and unfortunately for warner bros. ( partly because they didn’t do it right and early the first time), the DCEU has been chosen as a scapegoat.

Character development for Stephenwolf was poor; his motivations for stealing the mother boxes wasn't fully explored and so I didn't feel like the world was at stake. The resurrection of Superman in justice league totally negates the scene in BvS at his funeral where the sands were levitating on the coffin- I wished they referenced it when the mother box was used on him. The movie was enjoyable no doubt but it could've been better with a longer runtime.
P.s feminists aren't dealing too well with wonder woman having a hard time with superman. I mean he's superman for f**ks sake, and that's just a glimpse of his overpowered nature if he were to go dark.
