>>127814426>They keep trying to do in a single movie what the MCU built up over multiple individual movies that culminated in cross-overs with established characters.Good because for all the faults of the DCEU it feels like a lived in universe where villains and heroes can exist independently of what we see on screen. We don't need origin movie 32 to establish something any retarded monkey can understand at this point.
Just compare Spider-Man in the MCU to Batman in the DCEU. None of his iconic villains exist in the MCU. He had to meet Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus through multiverse travel. When he is off screen who does he fight? Just random thugs? No small scuffles with Sandman or Rhino? No meetings with Chameleon? Why not? What do we lose from these characters existing without Spider-Man meeting them first?
Meanwhile Batman in the DCEU has fought Harley, Joker, Deadshot, and more. And he's had at least one Robin at his side already too. We didn't need a Joker movie, and then a Deadshot movie, and then a Ratcatcher movie to establish the world we as an audience can be smart enough to understand that things happen between films. There are severe writing issues with the DCEU films but this is not one of them. It's the best part of the DCEU. I don't know how Marvel tricked people into thinking world building had to be this slow and steady thing when films have been establishing fully realized worlds and fleshed out ensemble casts in 90 to 120 minutes for a hundred years.
