I love comic book superheroes. I love movies. I love both Marvel and DC which is why it pains me to see the oncoming suck that is the DC Cinematic Universe. For years I have been waiting to see the iconic Justice League together on screen kicking a$$ in all their rightful glory but, what we're getting is a group of ingredients that are just spelling disappointment. Let's start off with the reasons why they are failing.
1.They Clearly Don't Have A Plan
From the ending of the very first Iron Man it was evident Marvel was planning something big. Having Nick Fury show up at the end to confirm the inevitable appearance of The Avengers. They spent years building up a team of characters and introducing them all to the movie going public with time and care. Making a cohesive cinematic universe like comic books which has never been done before in the history of cinema.
The Avengers was basically just a movie that was their celebration party. And a fun one at that.
"Hard day of partying calls for shawarma"
WB and DC on the other hand planned on using Man of Stool *cough* sorry, Man of Steel as the launch pad for the DC cinematic universe. Now Man of Steel just became an abysmal Superman flick and not the best start.
It was a movie that was so poorly done that Superman himself is barely established as the hero the movie wanted you to see him as. With poor writing and also a poorly structured story this movie was just.....eww. Failing to grasp Superman on just about every level and an insult to everything he stands for.
"Never thought I'd see the day where Godzilla caused less destruction that Superman"
But besides that, it's what they decided to do next that really shows how little they are looking down the road. Well, clearly they decided to just play it safe. I mean, you know, DC just has hundreds of heroes they aren't even bothering to touch really so resort to Batman! We CLEARLY have not gotten enough of him.
But hey, BATMAN AND SUPERMAN!
Aaaaaaaaand wait a minute......Wonder Woman? Cyborg? um....
"Hey guys, I just found out there's like, more than two guys in the Justice Team"
And that d0uchebag Goyer (more on his idiotic self later ESPECIALLY when it comes to recent events) even went on saying that the people at DC have not been discussing it properly. Vague conversations only.
2. The People Who Are Making These Comic Book Movies Are Pretty Bad And Kinda Don't Like Or Understand their source material.
You see this man?
He. Is. An. A$$hole. And a terrible writer.

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/new...ter-Comments-Are-Why-DC-Cant-Have-Nice-Things
For the man supposedly being attached to everything DC movie related he sure is a complete d!ckhead and his knowledge of the DC comic films he is suppose to have is not even there. Wonder Woman is in great hands if it's left in the hands of this guy. I mean, just look at his comments on She-Hulk.
Oh yea, and not knowing Martian Manhunter's backstory and turning it just in to your generic alien vision all while resorting to outdated stereotypes IN FRONT OF YOUR CORE VIEWING AUDIENCE is sure to calm anyone who loves these franchises minds.
To quote Mr. Goyer "How many of you heard of Martian Manhunter?" people raised hands, "How many of those hands raised have gotten laid?"
Your writer for Justice League ladies and gentleman! *slow clap*
He is also the guy responsible for writing such stinkers as Crow:City of Angels, Ghost Rider 2, Blade Trinity, etc. All pile of poop.
And who is our director for these?
"I make fetish films and slow motion films because that's also my fetish. I've only got a couple of saving graces but other than that I'm almost knocking on Michael Bay's clubhouse"
"It's doomed"
You know, at least Disney knows more than two people in Hollywood work on movies.
3. The terrible Casting Choices
You know, Ben Affleck as Batman is actually the best thing this film has going for it.
"Someone believes in me? I mean, I only earned two Oscars and did a complete 180 of my career over the last decade proving to everyone that I'm not only a good actor but a badass director and writer."
Yes. I believe in Batfleck. And it seriously won't be that hard to do better than f#cking throat cancer over here.
*hearing voice* "I thought my jokes were bad."
"It.......wasn't a joke......."
Anyway, Wonder Woman appears on the big screen for the first time ever! Who will play the mighty Amazonian warrior?!
The eye candy from those Fast Car movies?
And Lex Luthor is......
Superman's ultimate nemesis is going to be played by the twig from Zombieland? If you're gonna be anyone in Superman, it's gonna be Jimmy Olsen.
"He looks like someone I need to give charity to, not Lex Luthor."
Yea, after the crappy Man of Steel painting the vision of the direction these movies are going in and a bunch of factors of sh!ttyness in play, this turd is smelling already years away.
"Least we got your back in theaters"
