I wasn’t interested in the first one and didn’t watch it, and would’ve done the same this time around but, like I said, Namor.

I did like Namor being in there until I saw how he will look and I found it to be underwhelming. Still I thought I give it a chance he was ok not too good not too bad...

Anyway looks like Gunn is cleaning house and might just be rebooting the whole thing:

the whole thing just needs a better direction which i hope Gunn is the one to do so.

DC just doesn't learn. A film like this could have kind of worked if they built up to it with some of the other characters. But instead they all just end up being silly.

they didn't build up any of those character's.

Got done watching this and it was definitely one of the best pure superhero blockbusters since The Avengers. All of the characters were great (as were the actors who played them), the powers were awesome, the villain was threatening, great discussions about superhero ethics, the score and cinematography were all on point, and the jokes were funny but didn't ruin the tension. All in all a solid 8/10 movie. My only gripe was [SPOILER - highlight to read]: that it seemed foolish that they didn't free Adam before fighting Sabbac. How the phuck did they think they would win that battle without him? It unfortunately reduced the impact of Dr. Fate's sacrifice to a slight extent. Besides that, a practically perfect superhero film. And of course, the [SPOILER - highlight to read]: post credit scene with the return of Cavill Superman (and the cameo appearance of the Peacemaker sidekick lady (Although I thought that showed sucked major ass)) had me hyped AF. I do legit wonder if they can do a DCEU Multiverse with a team-up of Affleck AND Pattinson Batman and Leto AND Phoenix's Joker, since they seem to be progressing forward with the DCEU. Can't wait to see what's planned!

^^^Good point.
I think maybe it (GoTG) worked because the writers managed to get in at -least- one scene for each character to humanize them, either visually, via dialogue, or both. Rocket’s scars, Drax’s family, Gamora’s planet, and how hated she was in the prison…

This movie didn’t really do that, or didn’t do it very well at any rate.

We got to see Atom Smasher’s uncle (the Fonz).
Cyclone mentioned being kidnapped by a villain.
Hawkman and Fate alluded to a long friendship.

All those things fell flat for me though.

The closest for me was Fate talking about his long life, and that worked mostly because of Pierce Brosnan’s delivery.

My "gripe" was actually explained in the film upon rewatch. As far as nuking the DCEU, that really sucks because THIS MOVIE ESPECIALLY WITH THE CAVILL SUPERMAN RETURN P.E.R.F.E.C.T.L.Y. sets up the DCEU for more stories including more Ben Affleck Batman (WHO D.E.S.P.E.R.A.T.E.L.Y. NEEDS HIS OWN SOLO FILM WHERE HE FACES OFF AGAINST JARED LETO JOKER AND WE CAN SEE THE FULL EXTENT OF THEIR AWESOMENESS WITHOUT RUSHED WRITING) and Gal Gadot Wonder Woman (which if people didn't like WW84, you don't QUIT, you just find a better supervillain and make a better movie. The Amazonians should be the DCEU's version of Wakanda but instead Wonder Woman 3 is getting CANCELLED????? IF WW3 gets cancelled, then it will TRULY BE WARNER BROTHERS SELF-DESTRUCTIVE WWIII) so I hope they think about possibly reversing that decision.....

*And actually giving just due to the entire DC MULTIVERSAL landscape by tying together the HBO Titans and Doom Patrol shows and FOX's Gotham, and the CW Arrowverse/Smallvilleverse, and OBVIOUSLY THE DCAU, WHERE YOU GUYS SHOULD BE JUST BE ADAPTING THOSE JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED EPISODES INTO LIVE ACTION MOVIES AND YOU WOULD HAVE INSTANT $xBILLION-BOX-OFFICE-OPENING-WEEKEND SALES. WHY ARE YA'LL FLOUNDERING? YA'LL SHOULD BE COMPETING WITH THE MCU HEAD-TO-HEAD LIKE THE OLD WCW-VS-WWE FEUD, CULMINATING IN A LIVE ACTION MULTIVERSE FILM IN WHICH WE SEE ROBERT DOWNEY JR. TONY STARK AND CHRIS HEMSWORTH THOR FISTFIGHT BEN AFFLECK BATMAN AND HENRY CAVILL SUPERMAN, WITH PIERCE BROSNAN DR FATE FIGHTING BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH DR STRANGE, LETITIA WRIGHT SHURI BLACK PANTHER FIGHTING GAL GADOT WONDER WOMAN, AND MARK RUFFALO HULK AMD TATIANA Madeleine SHE-HULK FIGHTING DWAYNE "THE ROCK" JOHNSON BLACK ADAM AND ALDIS "AGE OF THE GEEK BABY ALEC HARDISON THE WORLD'S GREATEST TECHNOPATH" HODGE HAWKMAN, AND CYCLONE AND ATOM SMASHER FIGHTING DAISY JOHNSON AND ANT-MAN IN THE FOREGROUND. AFTER THE MULTIVERSAL BRAWL-FOR-IT-ALL, THEY MUST DEFEAT A THANOS DARKSEID ANTIMONITOR-CELESTIAL-EGO-PLANET-DORMAMMU-TRIGON HYBRID. The projected release date SHOULD be no later than 2025 if you Warner Brothers © producers know wtf you're doin. DO YA¿?!¿?!
