Justice League (2017 film)/YMMV

These things about Justice League (2017 film) are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.


 * Acceptable Targets: A lot of Snyderverse fans are sure to make fun of the Whedon Cut.
 * Anticlimax Boss: The defeat of Steppenwolf was underwhelming.
 * Author's Saving Throw: While Snyderverse fans may disagree on most of them, they did win over some non-Snyderverse fans.
 * Superman is more like the Big Blue Boy Scout like in the comics.
 * The coloring is brighter, the pacing is faster and the plot is simpler.
 * There is a lot of levity in this film, with the Flash being the comic relief.
 * Broken Base: Which is better: Zack Snyder or Joss Whedon?
 * Fanon Discontinuity: Before the release of Zack Snyder's Justice League, many Snyderverse fans believed that the Whedon Cut exists in an alternate reality.
 * Friendly Fandoms: Fans of the Whedon Cut also happen to like The Emperor's New Groove or the Allers Cut for both being more lighthearted final products than the director's original vision.
 * It's the Same, Now It Sucks: Many fans complained that the Whedon Cut is more of an Avengers rip-off than a Justice League movie.
 * Narm: Oh, boy. Where do we begin?
 * The Flash keeps talking about brunch in two scenes.
 * Superman asks Batman "Tell me. Do you bleed?" and Batman falls with him saying "Something's definitely bleeding." It worked in the context of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice given that the question was said by Batman but it doesn't in the Whedon Cut's context given that Batman is a human.
 * Martha Kent calls Lois Lane the "thirstiest" or "hungriest" woman of all time. We still don't know if that's Martian Manhunter talking or just Martha Kent.
 * Narm Charm:
 * Bruce Wayne's speech about friendship is one of the few things Snyderverse fans liked and were unhappy it didn't appear in the Snyder Cut.
 * Superman saying to Steppenwolf that he's is not just a big fan of power but also a big fan of justice had some nice delivery reminiscent of the Christopher Reeve films.
 * Nightmare Retardant: Steppenwolf's design doesn't look scary at all.
 * Only the Creator Does It Right: It is agreed that Zack Snyder's cut is better than this Whedon Cut.
 * Overshadowed by Controversy: Ray Fisher, Gal Gadot and Jason Momoa openly talked about Joss Whedon's abusive and unprofessional behavior.
 * Pandering to the Base:
 * Rather than using Junkie XL's music, Danny Elfman's music reuses his 1989 Batman leitmotif and John Williams' Superman leitmotif.
 * The film uses plenty of humor for the sake of humor, alienating Snyderverse fans.
 * Scapegoat Creator: Joss Whedon got a lot of flak for changing Justice League.
 * The Scrappy: Steppenwolf is a Generic Doomsday Villain in the Whedon Cut.
 * So Okay It's Average: Non-Snyderverse fans look at the film this way.
 * Spiritual Licensee: Some feel like it's an Avengers movie due to Whedon's output.
 * They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character:
 * Aquaman, Cyborg and the Flash's screen time was underutilized.
 * Darkseid was only given a single mention and didn't show up.
 * They Changed It, Now It Sucks: The reshoots and rewrites that left up some plot holes sure made Snyderverse fans unhappy.
 * Took the Bad Film Seriously: Aside from the removed mustache, Henry Cavill still did a great job as Superman.
 * Unacceptable Targets: Making fun of Zack Snyder given of his daughter Autumn's suicide could lead you into serious trouble.
 * Uncanny Valley: In the Whedon Cut, Henry Cavill's mustache was removed with CGI, making Superman have a weird upper lip.
 * Uncertain Audience: With two director's clashing visions together, it didn't appeal to Snyderverse fans and Whedon fans.
 * Unfortunate Implications: Joss Whedon reduced the amount of screen time for characters of color and deleted some of their roles.
