Justice League

2017 was a great year for movies ... most of the time. Here were a few notable, terrible exceptions.

It seemed inevitable that something would have to give behind the scenes in the DCEU, and with the recent success of Wonder Woman, the hiring of Matt Reeves to helm The Batman, and Ben Affleck’s heavily-rumored departure — among other things — a major change felt imminent. That change has come, as a new report reveals that a huge shakeup is underway with the DCEU, with the head of the comic book film production division leaving his post, while the role of DC chief creative officer Geoff Johns will become “more advisory in nature.”

An insider from the studio details what went wrong behind the scenes of ‘Justice League,’ from directors with clashing visions to studio shakeups.

Justice League was supposed to be the chosen one. Instead, it’s almost singlehandedly put the future of the DCEU in jeopardy.

Left confused by some of the weird plot holes and continuity errors in the latest DC movie? So were we.

It’s no secret that Wonder Woman was such a hit that Warner Bros. (very wisely) pushed Gal Gadot’s DC superhero front and center in the marketing for Justice League. Unfortunately, fans hoping for a worthy follow-up to the Amazon warrior’s solo film may be fairly disappointed — not by her presence, which is understandably somewhat limited though always welcome, but by the way Diana Prince is presented in comparison to her masculine super-peers.

Given the reaction to ‘Justice League’ from the first batch of reviews, the movie’s Rotten Tomatoes score doesn’t come as much of a surprise.

The DCEU is embracing standalone movies more than aiming for continuity across its cinematic universe.

It won’t be hard for this fall to beat the worst summer box office in more than ten years, but it’s gearing up to blow the past few months out of the water. Fall — that is, Thanksgiving, a.k.a. all-the-kids-are-home-from-school-and-looking-for-something-to-do season — is almost upon us, and with it come some of the most exciting blockbusters of the year. And it’s Marvel vs. DC yet again as two superhero movies vie for the top spot.

In a new interview, Affleck described the ‘unorthodox’ process that led to the first live-action movie starring DC’s signature super-team.
