Production Hell - The Entire DCEU

The expression: “Slow and steady wins the race!” is a cautionary tale for a reason and the DCEU is a perfect example of what happens when you try and rush things to catch up to your rivals.

A time when marvel used to be good. Their competitors actually crashed and burned trying to copy them. Man how irony truly works over time.

This shows to me how much of a miracle that first decade of the MCU was. They weren't always the best films but that they were all competently put together, and worked as a shared universe is a feat that's probably not going to be repeated in our lifetimes. Heck, even the MCU itself seems to have finally run out of steam.

It takes talent to mess up a Cinematic Universe when the rival company already drew the road map and you have the top 2 most recognizable heroes ever with tons and tons of comics to guide your character work, world building etc

"One can only imagine the delights of Nic Cage teaming up with the campiest Batman since Adam West". You got that right, mate.

What's kind of funny is that Zack Snyder did have a hand in the original WW filmed by Patty Jenkins (especially in terms of fight choreography and stunt work). So when they got rid of Snyder and gave her full control, it was a disaster waiting to happen

And even after all that, dear Drinker, you failed to mention the biggest super villain of all: Ezra Miller

The DCEU feels like that essay you write a few minutes before it's due.
