I think if JL2 and Aquaman are big successes it will be purely because of the quality of those movies rather than any lead-in from JL. If they succeed it will be in spite of JL rather than because of it. I'm optimistic about Aquaman and The Batman because I think Wan and Reeves can deliver...

Outside Wonder Woman - and probably Suicide Squad - the movies have fallen well short of expectations revenue rise. Opportunity cost matters more than the amount of money made. Financially DC isn't building towards anything. The Marvel movies may have started lower but each movie created...

I thought the movie was pretty good. Not as good as the original Avengers movie but better than Age of Ultron. Perhaps most pleasingly was that the movie was coherent from start-to-finish - in stark contrast to Batman vs Superman. Also liked that none of the characters felt de-powered to make...

Probably the best superhero movie since The Dark Knight and that's no small compliment. We've had quite a few very good-to-excellent comic book films since then. I'd rate it higher than The Avengers, Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy, which I view very highly, and think it may be equal...

That was way better than I expected. Possibly my favourite Star Wars film since ESB.

I ended up going almost out of curiosity because the reviews were so terrible. Ended up enjoying it a fair bit without thinking it was fantastic. The movie lacked a sense of urgency. Particularly over the second half when it seemed as though there was no urgency to get to Waller or the two...

I'm pretty sure there will be a 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' type scenario that brings Supergirl into the Earth One continuity. Fourth season is better than the third season. The fourth season trend-line seems to have been driven lower after a certain event that occurred; I'd actually argue...

Saw it earlier today.

I've addressed your points in your spoiler tags (in bold).

Saw it yesterday. It's a frustrating movie. I enjoyed parts of it - often to a great degree - but I'd still struggle to recommend it to anyone. Affleck and Gadot did enough that I'd be interested in seeing them in a solo movie. But Superman still seems joyless. The editing was a real mess...

Flash reference was Barry mentioning that the airport was shut down after a pilot disappeared.

Who exactly has said they were going to expecting a ground-breaking or cinematic masterpiece? It sounds like a straw-man argument to me; used to undermine anyone who has issues with the films. It strikes me as perfectly possible that many people will have issues with the film even if they go...

It felt like the first one but worse. Main enemy fell flat (such as a waste of Spader) and in general it was pretty much the same thing but with robots rather than aliens. Easily the weakest entry in the MCU for years and such a big come down after the success of GotG and more recently...

Arrow creators are talking up a massive mid-season cross-over. Given their track record I'll take them at their word. Really good pilot though.

Pilot was really impressive. It'll be interesting to see whether it follows the trend of Arrow and continues to get better as the season progresses. The definitely imported the breakneck pace of Arrow, no Smallville-style meandering in this one.

I don't really have any issue with how it ended though I think the structure of the final season was terrible. First, it is made abundantly clear throughout the series that Ted adores Tracey and that she was the love of his life. She is characterised as literally perfect for Ted with no...

It would be a massive shame if we didn't get Malcolm and Slade onscreen together. Would be a wasted opportunity.

Geez ... that first episode. Didn't see that coming at all!

Shares my feelings as well. Good season let down by a messy last episode. Really felt like a series finale rather than season finale.

Extremely action packed! Ambitious!

Seems silly to us living in a democracy but for some of the world it probably rings true. Either way I can guarantee that our elections were not the envy of the world :p

Really enjoyed it. Picked the ending but that didn't stop it from being a lot of fun.

Shame he isn't directing it rather than starring in it.

Classy post.

I really enjoyed it. Didn't know going in about the 'twist' so I was a bit shocked at that initial toilet fight! A lot of fun.

Really enjoyed the third episode. The show is noticeably better than the first season.

How do you arrive at that conclusion? Murder surely involves intent and Superman had no intent to harm anyone besides the Kryptonians. Superman murdered exactly one person, the same number of people he murdered in Superman II. The World Machines would have killed everyone on Earth if left...

Just regarding this, most of the buildings would have already been cleared or were already partially destroyed by the world machines. I agree that the final battle between Superman and Zod was over-the-top in terms of the destruction it caused. I would have gone with a more personal fight - and...

Saw it a second time. Probably enjoyed it more the second time around. Random note but I'd watch a prequel set on Krypton starring Russell Crowe. I basically enjoyed everything until the final fight, which in my opinion is completely over the top.

Thought it was really good although probably could have done without the last ten minutes. It was pretty over the top. But I thought the rest of it was first class.
