Only standout Marvel movie there is it's Winter Soldier, this notion that Marvel do good movies is absurd be it animated or live action DC is besting them.

the difference between marvel and dc is that marvel actually took the time to properly lay the foundation and dc rushed into things head first and mapped out a plan after the fact.

there is no denying this.

So they have a plan now now right? Because no one was talking about the differences between them; dudes were saying there was no plan at all and they didn't know what they were doing.

what good is a plan though if it was arrived at the last minute?

no matter what they do, their universe will never feel as big or as fleshed out as marvel's. it's just not possible. marvel BUILT theirs from the ground up.

It isn't a last minute plan though. They came up with it after Man of Steel and that was the reason for the delay in releasing BvS. From the looks of it their plan seems to be rolling along fine in that they give directors their own little section of the overall sandbox that is their movie universe. We will know for sure after BvS and Suicide Squad are released but nothing so far has me shook about what is coming.

And I also think a lot of you go overboard with this slavish fanboying of "the Marvel Plan" like it was a fully written story bible that mapped out every step of their cinematic universe. They wanted to do solo movies that led up to the Avengers. That is about as deep as their planning was and everything since then has been broad strokes too.
The plan to make Cap 3 into a movie version of Civil War seemed like it was pulled out of Fiege's ass and they have been making up the build to Infinity War as they go along.

you're not understanding me. marvel took the time to lay the foundation first before the crossover event. they established their key characters first and then they brought them together. the climax was earned. if avengers comes out after iron man 1 it wouldn't have been as good and it most certainly wouldn't have been as big.

and come on DC's plan was most certainly put together at the last minute. how can you possibly argue otherwise. regardless of what they're able to salvage from it, it definitely feels rushed. batman and wonder woman have to be formally introduced in the SAME movie!

So basically it comes back to the fact that unless there are a grip of solo movies that then end up in a Justice League flick then there is no plan?
Everything doesn't need to be done the way that Marvel did it. The plan is to intro them in this movie and then do a JL and solo flicks. It is a different plan but that doesn't make it a bad one or prove that there is no planning at all.
Besides Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman are arguably the 3 most recognized comic book characters in the entire world...they don't need to be introduced to movie-goers in solo movies because everyone already has a familiarity with who these characters are.

for all intents and purposes BVS is their avengers, not justice league. if anything justice league is more akin to avengers 2. by that point the novelty of seeing batman and superman together on screen will have worn off a bit and the appeal will be in seeing new members added to the team. but the big sell was always batman and superman. THAT is their mega event.

the difference though is marvel built up to their mega event, dc didn't. they just fast tracked it because they wanted that avengers money while the iron was still hot.

we are familiar with their powers and their origins but we are not familiar with who they are going to be as characters.

And again you are stuck in this mindset that the only way to do this is the Marvel way; DC/WB thinks differently. I don't know why so many of you dudes are so close-minded to the concept that not every comic book movie needs to copy the way Marvel did it. The way they are doing it with BvS does not automatically mean its going to be bad. You are assuming way too much and all of it negative.
And when you are already familiar with a character in a broad sense then it is that much easier to follow along with whatever new wrinkles are added to them in their movie incarnations. It isn't like what Marvel faced where the majority of people had no clue who the fukk Tony Stark/Iron Man or Thor were.

WB has had Batman vs Superman prepped for production before Nolan and Goyer pitched their idea for a solo Batman movie, also had cast, crew even location setup for a Justice League movie not long after, Marvel does quantity whereas DC is about quality.

Just my humble opinion.

If DC is about quality than why did MoS happen? :mjlol:

Don't even make me bring up Jonah Hex and Green Lantern again so you can pretend pre-'DCU' movies don't count while simultaneously hailing Nolan's pre-DCU Batman trilogy as "evidence" of DC knowing what they're doing.
