Just got back from an advance screening. To be frank, it's bad, worse than MoS. I can't even name all the problems, so in no particular order, here goes:
>CGI is trash
>Barry Allen is supposed to be the awkward comic relief but falls incredibly flat
>Cyborg is broody and uninteresting
>Aquaman's catchphrase is literally "awwriiight"
>no character arcs whatsoever
>action cuts far too much, Snyder should be ashamed
>cyborg says "booyah" but it's not satisfying because of how they changed his character/demeanor

it's astonishing how cringeworthy this movie was. Any time something moved through the air, it looked incredibly fake. Steppenwolf looked like the bad guy in commercial that uses video games to appeal to kids but isn't actually for a video game. On top of that, he is worse than literally any marvel villain except for maybe the bad guy from GotG.
There were positive moments, involving the newly formed team talking about morals and whatnot. Gal Gadot was beautiful and her acting and action were comparatively good. The special effects/cgi for the flash looked cool. Jason Momoa is ripped and sexy. Superman moves and fights in an awesomely powerful way, it's fun to watch. (unfortunately he is absent from 90% of the movie.)
There's no way you can defend this pile of trash. DC needs to wait a year and reboot their cinematic universe with new talent in all fields. I'd be ok with keeping Gal Gadot because she is great. but that's it.

what are the odds of a "no JL was good you just didn't get it" meme forming?

>I'd be ok with keeping Gal Gadot because she is great. but that's it.

bruh look at this dude

It's a certainty

Show your ticket stub faggot. Otherwise stfu Mouse shill

>Gal Gadot was beautiful and her acting and action were comparatively good.
Fake review

But MoS was the best capeshit ever made. Literal fag.

Barry Allen isn't even a comic relief character, he's supposed to be a nerd. the CW show got his characterization right. even that Axel Braun porn parody got his characterization right which is fucking ridiculous.

None. I'm a long tkme DC fanboy and I can say that Marvel won. Its over for us. Just bury it. Marvel won. Maybe in the next 50 years DC can make a comeback, but not this decade

I work at a movie theater, they don't print tickets for employee advance screenings.
"Comparatively" being the operative word
so it shouldn't be hard to be worse than it, should it?

uhuh suuuuuuureeeeeeeeeee

If you work there then how the fuck did you get the access keys for the film early?

my theater allows employees to obtain 2 free tickets for any movie after it comes out. employees were taking up seats in movies that could have been potential customers. Now, the theater allows any employee to watch the movie the day before the first screening if they want to show up at the theater after closing time. I watched the movie with all my coworkers and managers.

And exposed. You Marlel poojeets are sad. Seriously.

marvel is bad, DC is worse.
for example, in the latest thor movie. They use the immigrant song by Led Zeppelin to set the tone for Thor to whoop ass and be cool. It's cheesy as hell but at least fun. not at all intelligent film.
in justice league, they start playing Icky Thump while aquaman starts to maybe do something cool, but ten seconds later it's over. There's not even a cheesy action sequence.
Anything DC does is a cheap imitation of the shit that Marvel produces.

Ok but still, since the films are all digital now they are encrypted and require keys to play, how did you get them to be valid this early (assuming you use DCPs)?

Only if you don't like Superman

>Anything DC does is a cheap imitation of the shit that Marvel produces.
isnt it crazy to think that at one point in comics history it was the other way around

The movie's keys release on Thursday.

It's been Thursday for a while, depending on where you are in the world.

dc wins again baby

that's what makes these DC films so monumentally disappointing to me. Superman and Batman are undeniably more iconic than Marvel's heroes. Spiderman is the only one who can compete. But the movies would tell you a different story. DC has had it's time in the sun, I guess. It's sad to watch them fail.

Dude I have no idea how the managers played the film early, all I know is that I saw it. I do know that they can't show us star wars in advance because Disney has that shit on lock. My guess is this: Justice League comes out on the 17th technically. Theaters don't do midnight screenings ever since that guy shot up a theater. Instead, they show the movie at 7 and 9 PM the day before. I guess the logic is that by the time the movie ends, it will technically be release day. So, the keys or whatever get released at midnight on wednesday, which is why I got to see it tonight.

Don't know what it is but marvel movies just feel more comfy. Can't put my finger on it

Maybe it's the quips

I mean, the Nolan batman was going strong against the "first phase" of the MCU. They started around the same time yeah?.

It's just after Avengers, WB was just in so much a hurry to catch up, missing the 4+ years of movies and god knows how much longer planning. Like, everything post MOS felt like them trying to rush to this film as fast as possible, and when they finally reached their avengers, they're still rushing for the future movies.

It's designed to be easily digestible entertainment. It's kind of the point.

...

How fast was flash?

MCU Quicksilver tier? Season 1 Flash tier? Anywhere close to X Men Quicksilver?

Sheldon dressed up as The Flash -tier.
BAZINGA!

Then this film should have been good. You know, since it has more quips than any Marvel film has... well. Ever.

Don't believe me? Count the quips.

Bonus Round: Try not to laugh at the PS1 FMV graphics on Cyborg, Aquamans jump or Wonder Womans '''acting''''.

The movie actually does a good job of showing how fast he is, and he has some of the better special effects, but he never gets a scene to showcase his skills, like DoFP Quicksilver. He's mostly just there for the quips.

Give us the plot rundown

his quips are autistic as hell

>pet cemetary

That is not really Barry Allen. It is a lame effeminate Bart Alen.

>Batman forms team
>Go rez Superman
>Superman comes back evil and you think there will be a major fight
>3 mins of hilarious-but-not-meant-to-be scenes (KAH-ELL. NOH!)
>saved by a STOP, MY INVINCIBLE SON MARRRFAAAAAA tier event
>They go and collect all the Motherboxes, but for some reason leave one of them completely unattended as they go do some other shit; Steppenwolf steals it
>Steppenwolf does his evil shit in Russia or some shit and the gang stop him, whilst saving civilians
>Steppenwolf is killed by the paradaemons
>literally ends with a Freeze frame of Superman racing Flash
>Oh no it was Darksied all along TO BE CONTINUED

Thanks for ruining the movie asshole

I'm just laughing so hard. $300m and it looked awful. Beyond shit. Gal cannot act. Aquamans eyes are all fucked up. There's more quips than any Marvel film ever. The editing is awful. There's obvious shit reshoots. Special effects are awful (bar maybe Speed Force). Flash is used as nothing more than the timid quipper, while Aquaman is the confident quipper. Batman and Superman quip at each other, each trying to outdo each other. KAH-ELL, NOH! is just god awful.

DCucks cannot say they're better than Marvel because 'they don't do quips' (they always did do quips, but it was a shitposters defence) now because this is the so quippy that I think even Marvel fans will be put off.

>PET CEMETERY?
>HE DON'T LOOK RIGHT
>YUP, I DEFINITELY BROKE SOMETHING
>DON'T MAKE ME DO THIS!
>DO YOU BLEED?
>I'M RICH

I'll be as concise as possible
>Batman knows bad shit is going to happen
>decides to recruit a "team" to fight
>Knows about Flash and Cyborg and Aquaman because he's Batman
>Steppenwolf arrives inexplicably via bifrost

>supes flies off, obviously to come back later
>Steppenwolf steals magic square in the commotion
>the team goes to fight Steppenwolf
>they start to lose
>suprise Superman shows up and tilts the odds in the team's favor
>they win
>the end
no character development whatsoever
unmemorable music
rough cgi
bastardization of characters
offensive all around

Jokes on you, I've not even seen it. I'm just guessing. It's capeshit. DC brand capeshit. Which means it's even easier to predict than cookie cutter Marvel.

How does Batman know he can revive Supes?
Why is supes pissed?

>rough cgi
Mate, this wasn't rough CGI, this was brutal gang rape in a cramped Detroit ally on top of broken glass rough.

>reading a thread about some user who has seen a movie early

>is buttblasted when he reads spoilers

>YOU WON'T LET ME LIVE. YOU WON'T LET ME DIE.

That's why. See link.

The use the kryptonian ship, but instead of using AIDs blood like in BvS they drop a motherbox in that Flash charges the second it hits the water

>streamable.com/2qkut

Holy shit, everything about that was awful.

How does Batman know that?
Why does Supes get angry?
This is so dumb

never explained how batman knows it will work, its portrayed as an educated guess

its implied that supes has some short term memory loss and that hes still mad at batman for the BvS shit, as soon as he rezes he grabs batman and says "do you bleed?"

Why didn't Batman bring along some kryptonite in case something went wrong?

Why does Afflek stoop to shit like this? The paycheque? Does he really need/want more money?

It's embarrassing.

Because if there was even a 1% chance of nothing going wrong they had to treat it as an absolute certainty.

oh yeah, nearly forgot. There was a trailer for a movie adaptation of the arcade game RAMPAGE
featuring Dwayne Johnson and an albino gorilla
thought that was noteworthy

They imply Cyborg know this because he’s “2SMART4U” but that’s about it

literally in the scene before he's rezzed, Batman asks Alfred to "bring the big guns"

its later revealed that the "big guns" are Louis.
Yes, you read that correctly, he only brings Louis despite knowing somehow that Supes will flip out.

its a shit movie

I liked the pet sematary quip. That's about it.

>Louis

>worse than MoS
of course its gonna be worse than the best capekino ever made

>Supes had to watch him jerk off once
>Has PTSD about it

Probabably a better plot than what's there.

Can't believe they kept him in the movie after everything thats happened.

It was so bad, a coworker walked out. This guy liked Murder on the Orient Express but walked out of Justice League.

Like, so bad that the thing I was most excited about after the movie were the potential memes I would find here in the coming days

>AAAHHH CYBORG SAVE ME
I see.

Go to the catalog and you'll easily spot marvelpajeet shill threads. saged.

oh shit, they get to make a King Kong movie, and a Godzilla movie, but for a fraction of the license costs

that's pretty genius.

>he saged my thread

I don't even get half the quips
what is "pet cemetery" supposed to mean?

.

To people who have already seen it, I think I've misheard one line in the movie. Did Barry's father tell him: "Don't be gay!" while he was getting dragged away during Barry's first prison visit?

a reference to the movie "Pet Cemetery" which involves bringing a dead cat back to life but it;s evil

BvS was pretty good. The people and critics wanted more funny fun and light-hearted movie, and they've got it with JL

It's this Stephen King story where you could bury dead things in an old Indian Burial ground and they'd come back to life, only evil because Stephen King.

Is Momoa trying to emulate Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise?

Yeah man. That's why I ignore these initial threads about DC films and come back in 3 months or so for real discussion

Guys I enjoyed this film. It's by no means perfect but it's the closest superman has been to his comic portrayal since donner and aquaman is cool

I'll miss Zack Snyder, and the BvS style. The JL film have:

>no good dialogues
>only one good fight scene
>bad ass batman is far away from the BvS version
>horrible cameras and bad choice of filters
>generic villain

The absence of Snyder is highly felt

The CGI was bad too, I know that the cgi of Doomsday is equally bad but at least about the others scenes was pretty convicent in general

Doomsday wasn’t as visibly bad with the ok lighting, this is just sad in Justice League

thanks for the godziller lad

>>Knows about Flash and Cyborg and Aquaman because
Gal Gadot sent him a video about them that she stole from Lex' database.

>Count the quips
THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF DKEKS

>Do you bleed?
>WOO YEAH CLAP CLAP CLAP

This is gonna do really well with audiences isn't it?

oh god i cant even imagine how they will butcher the new batman film if they even make one

>I want a car. Chicks dig the car.
>This is why Superman works alone.
>COOL PARTY
You know how it will turn out. You've seen it before.

>my name is Barry Allen and I am the faster quipper alive

The only character interaction I really gave two shits about at all in this film was at the very beginning between Barry and his dad, iunno that shit got me good almost immediately. Anyone else feel this way?

>autistic as hell
Then again it is established as soon as we meet him that he is literally, and I mean literally, autistic

The dialogue seemed like it was ripped straight out of the CW universe.
I'm not critiquing it's quality of writing here, but they actually plagiarised it.

It's good dialogue.

Actor playing Barry's dad has the same look and even performance as CW dad flash.

So when Batsy will fuck Wonder Woman's pussy that dont see a dick more than one hundred years?

>How does Batman know he can revive Supes?
It's just movie technobabble mumbo jumbo. It's actually something that's really beginning to piss me off in film. They just make things happen for no legitimate reason, they just say words. Something about superman having more power than a planet so he can survive the motherbox, we need to charge the motherbox though the ship doesn't have enough power to do it, Flash goes I can build up a charge by running, you have to touch it right when it hits the liquid. None of this shit makes any real, intuitive sense to me. It honestly might as well be magic.

Why do you want the poor girl to be fucked by a rich fat guy?

JESUS CHRIST KEK

Because she wants the D and if you watched the film will notice the sexual tension

>despite knowing somehow that Supes will flip out.
I thought that was the most contrived bullshit ever.

Why is he fighting them if he recognizes them and knows whats going on? It wasn't like he lost his mind or was temporarily insane, it honestly just felt like Zack wanted Supes to fight them cuz he wanted a fight.

>hey you know how Hulk is always punching the other Avengers?
>SUPERMAN IS OUR HULK
>LET'S DO THAT
I guess.

god the "threats" in these movies never feel like their meaningful in any way despite their talking up. it's shit thats over and done with in a few days or a week. i know you gotta fit it all in a single movie but there has to be a better way to go about it.

fucking how?

if you think not being funny fun was the only reason bvs was panned by critics, you need to watch that steaming pile again.

some of the jokes were funny but a lot of it felt out of place and character. batman saying something is definitely bleeding just felt so wrong coming from him, same with the fish jokes but worse.

iunno if this is a valid complaint but i kinda hate how obnoxiously robotic everyone behaves, they just all take everything completely in stride with zero reaction. commisioner gordon sees a robot man, wonder woman, flash and aquaman just appear out of nowhere and he doesnt comment on it, doesnt give it a seconds thought, just okay this is happening.

Did you want him to quip?

He deals with batman villains on a daily basis.

>minions feed on fear

Did Scientology help fund this movie?
