I don't understand people's obsession's with rotten tomato scores.

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.

So Mashable predicts Justice League to have a 33% RT score, based on the amount of time the embargo has been going.

Shesus, the budget is over 300 million. Easily over 100 million being spent on marketing, too, probably way more.

Most of that budget went on reshoots no doubt.

I think RT scores are meaningless for the most part but I did find the correlation between the timing of the review embargo in relation to the release date with the final score interesting.

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.

People are lazy and they want everything to be done for themselves, including confirming their biases..

No, I like Snyder, I liked MoS, BvS, even if an unpopular opinion, many people in real life liked it too. This whole mess is on WB, their reaction to criticism is what's got us here.

That's fortune for you. I wanted to like Man of Steel, and Batman v Superman, and Sucker Punch, but I just couldn't. Sucker Punch was at least visually interesting, I vaguely recall.

I did like 300 when that came out and the few times I've rewatched it since.

[Andrew NDB]

Yeah, let's not get carried away here. MoS is fairly awesome apart from screwing up Pa Kent's death, the "You shoulda let those kids in the bus die! Damn it, Clark!" thing and Superman not saving anybody. I can't really point to anything else in that movie I don't dig beyond little nits.

While I can't say I'd be 100% confident that he'd have done a great one (Snyder really should have bowed out of things with MoS), I'm pretty sure making Batman V Superman and not Man of Steel 2 after Man of Steel 1 was the result of WB forcing that on Snyder with their shortcut roadmap to "Justice League." Within that, though, I'm sure "OK, well let's do the Death of Superman and The Dark Knight Returns all in one then!" was all him.

Sucker Punch was at least visually interesting, I vaguely recall.

It was fairly empty-headed. It's definitely a movie that could have benefited from going full, hard-R from the onset and not PG-13. There's nothing about that kind of movie that needs to be pasteurized for little kids.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Yeah, Man of Steel was a solid movie. The only big problem was Pa Kent... right idea of being protective of Kal-El, TERRIBLE execution. Just turrible.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

The other big problem I had was Jor-El being so prominent in the film. After slogging through this silly Krypton prologue, we have to see him more? I get that Snyder was trying to put Clark in a dilemma between earth dad's wishes and space dad's, but it totally should have been Brainiac who explains things to Clark instead of a Russell Crowe hologram.

If TMNT is any indication, DC dodged a bullet with Liebsman.

Oooooooooooooooooh man.

Oh man. That would've been great sequel bait!

[Vegita-San]

It IS amazing how I care more about marvel movies than DC. and I knew NOTHING about marvel before hand. but marvel movies are just fun.

I no longer feel the need to see them instantly in theater though. I can have more a relaxing time waiting an extra month and getting the on demand. super hero burn out.

[Andrew NDB]

I don't mind the Marvel movies. They don't take a lot of risks but I always know I'm going to see a relatively decent movie that won't have me leaving the theater when it's over angry. Now, I wish they'd take more risks, but whatever.

2018 will be a "reset" for the DCEU, with some movies being interconnected and others being standalone

Make sense since some of those movies that are interconnected, would connect to what happens in a Justice League sequel, while others would be standalone, that won't have any implication to it.

All the MCU movies are connected via a post credit and after credit scene, the DC movies don't really have to do that.
