Too many bad reviews now. I'm starting to fear those early fan reactions were faked. Or they were just caught up in the hype of seeing the movie early.

Edit- To be fair general consensus seems to be the movie is "meh" not bad.

Like I’ve said, early reception from previews are almost always positive because they are fanboys caught up in the hype.

🙁

No surprise there. If they do reboot they should wait several years at least.

And making WW a standalone is probably a good idea. I’ve heard she is one of the best things of the film so, if they do reboot, the could still make a WW trilogy or something in the interim.

I thought you didn't like comic sites like that. 😂

Anyway, this wouldn't be bad news. Nolan AND Miller as producers? That would be pretty cool and in line with what was reported earlier.

I've seen some scenes, and got the whole movie spoiled.

😂

Also Batman sounds awesome but he in no way is Batman. This sounds like the origin of the Crime Syndicate as opposed to the Justice League.

I'm not sure if they will go that route since JL starts shooting NEXT month and they just hired JK Simmons as Gordan. If they DO replace Snyder it won't be until JL part 2.

Apart from the last one that's all good news tbh.

Justice League should be pulled back, and Snyder should go. Push The Flash movie forward. Lighten the tone for that, build the Universe organically.

This can still work but they have to listen and make changes.

But please don't just finish the DCEU and reboot in 5-10 years.

If this movie doesn't perform financially then trust me, they're not shooting JL next month.

They certainly won't make a decision based on J K Simmons schedule.

Yeah, no real issues with the first three if this move shit to meh.

Now that's an idea.

Or, you know, they postpone shooting or cancel it entirely.

I can’t imagine they would go forward with a Snyder directed JL if the film bombs or is hated by fans.

I am hearing Batman rakes up a pretty decent death count in this.

So WB/DC gets it spot on again.

Well, after hearing what they did with Batman and Superman, I'm all for Snyder going the way of the dino. He is clearly an idiot that cares little for the characters and the years of history they have. He'd rather have big cgi cluster****s and less heart and soul. Good riddance to Snyder imo.

Hey, I'm all for a Miller/Nolan Justice League. That team (along with Yates) sounds bad ass on PAPER.

BTW, I seriously doubt they would get NOLAN again. Just seems to good to be true. Although, I hope I'm wrong. He's obviously a stronger storyteller/director than Snyder.

Didn't this movie sound bad ass too? You defended every single part of this movie, now it's just on to the next one?

I still might end up liking it. I defended Affleck a LOT and it's pretty much the consensus that he's the BEST Batman to date.

There was a very simple way to make this movie enjoyable as f*ck.

Having Batman beating the living shit out of Superman. Like, breaking his bones, crushing his organs, removing his penis, that kind of stuff. People from all countries all over the world would love it --- except for only SOME Americans.

Affleck was never in doubt for me. I was happy with his casting and even though I hate the Batman that he represents in the movie; I'm sure HIS ACTING is good. He cannot help the portrayal that Snyder forces down his throat. The real problems with the film that you defended are Eisenburg and Doomsday. And the critics consensus on both is that they're not good; definitely not highlights.

Easy to imagine how terrible Jessie and DDay were.

One looks and acts nothing like Lex Luthor. The other one got kidnapped from Moria.
