Official Justice League Movie

I pretty much enjoyed most of the movie, and my nitpicks are minor problems at most and not really a big deal. But if it were me I would have left these scenes out and here are a few problems:

- We didn't need long extended songs with lyrics for every superheroes introduction. As I mentioned, the one that felt the most drawn out was Aquaman's where all the villagers were singing in their language that felt like it went on for like 3+ minutes. I mean...all Aquaman did was return to the ocean. It was way too long and the focus on that one young girl singing was pretty droning.

- Not a big fan of the Knightmare sequence at the end. Don't care for Jared Leto's Joker, and overall, it kinda felt out of place besides that? I mean the movie had mostly a "happy" ending and then we find out its all Bruce's dream anyway. I can see why some would like it but it just felt unneeded.

- The scene with Martha and Lois should have just been Martha. Consider the bank really did foreclose on the house, I wonder how he even knew that. It also feels strange unless Martha met up with Lois off-screen at some point before Superman came back to life

- Aquaman kinda felt shortchanged in this movie. A lot of his personality from the Aquaman movie was largely absent here. His "dudebro" personality. And besides a few small scenes here and there he was largely the straight man during the big group scenes. Not counting Superman, it felt Aquaman got the least amount of screentime of the characters.

- The final scene should have had Superman with the classic red/blue outfit. Wearing black for the final fight was fine, but after? Feels odd if they set up a sequel knowing he'd still be wearing black rather than his "iconic" colors.

That's about it. I enjoyed the rest of the movie. Cyborg was really the best character in this and it's a shame WB/Joss screwed his actor over that he doesn't want to come back. Lastly this movie show how you can have female leads (Wonder Woman and the other Amazons) and a black superhero (Cyborg) and "do it right" without feeling like SJW pandering.
