Part of the reason I think DC/WB didn't jump on the post-credits bandwagon is because Nolan never did them in Batman and is openly against them.

Many of their 90% are fine movies but that's about it while there's plenty amazing 70% movies. Plenty of movies get super low/high scores based on kneejerk reactions . I feel even video game review compilations show a better picture of what to expect than RT.

Your best bet is to find 3-4 reviewers whose opinions/tastes sync up with yours and use them to decide if you want to see a movie you're on the fence about.
Well, they're aggregators. They take a selection of reviews for a particular movie and average them out, they're not pulling scores out of their ass.

When you take a class, you wouldn't try to argue with your teacher that because you scored well on one test you should pass the class if you scored poorly on every other test, project and assignment. Even if the assignments are weighted differently, one score is typically not going to outweigh the others.

If a movie has a bad score on Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic, its because most people agree that its bad. And if you don't agree, that's fine, everything is up to one's personal taste.

I wonder if they'll have to do reshoots for Aguaman to lessen its ties to the rest of the DCEU or if they'll only have to cut some scenes out.

So much for their plan to build up to Darkseid

It's funny that Justice League will have a post-credits scene and it may be the last true DCEU movie

I have a seat reserved in the first screening on 15th. I'm gonna see it, no matter what reviews I might encounter. I hope I don't see any.

Has anyone noticed Gal Gadot sounds like Gul Dukat from Deep Space Nine? I mean I'm just realizing this now for the first time.

The Justice League full soundtrack is on youtube but Warner Bros are killing like flies. 30:58 & 53:15 on the soundtrack has the Elfman Batman Theme for a quick second and it gave me goosebumps

I don't know if this is an actual early outline or just the fever dream of a hopeful fan but it's way better than the alleged leaked plot posted a few pages ago

After being disappointed by The Force Awakens and Alien: Covenant, I've resolved to never look at plot leaks of movies I actually want to see again.

That way, if the thing sucks, at least not knowing the exact degree to which it sucks ahead of time will help soften the blow.

Sounds fake. The other one posted a few pages ago only sounded terrible because the guy who posted it purposely tried making it sound bad. The guy who gave him all that info even responded with his version of the info that he originally shared with the guy who made the thread. I also believe that one to be true because he made mention of some very specific things that ended up happening in the clips.
