What a ****up by DC. The golden age of the comic book movie has ended, I'd say it was arguably 2000-2012, things have been going downhill since although there have been exceptions, X-Men DOFP, Wonder Woman come to mind. People are growing tired of the format too, kudos to Thor for basically doing a comedy. So 5 years after this golden age DC finally roll out their equivalent of "The Avengers", and just like MOS and B vs S it is not going well.
They had a legendary set of movies with the Dark Knight trilogy which should have been a springboard into Justice League, but Nolan didn't want it but I'm sure they could have gotten Bale on-board, so we end up with a brand new Batman which was just set up to fail even though he is OK. It's like Marvel casting a new Iron Man for the Avengers despite the great job done by Robert Downey Jnr. Then there was the badly handled Superman saga, we get an OK movie with Superman Returns which gets dumped for a terrible Reboot with Man of Steel, yes they actually got a new Superman and made it WORSE.
Wonder Woman has been great all round but the other big 2 terribly mishandled, and in the Justice League movie we are getting several new characters that no one outside of comic book readers really knows with no films of their own unlike the Marvel set.
I'm fairly sure they will make a small profit from all this (if you exclude TDK trilogy) but what should have been several billion profit will end up being a fraction of that.
