I understand you a little now. However I cannot hate the man who gave me Buffy and Firefly. I can, however agree that he is not as good as I thought he was.

Okay WHAT WHERE DID THIS COME FROM
It looks like different movie altogether. And I...like it? Kinda love it, actually?
Like, the jokes are good? It looks more bright and hopeful?
Oh god I'm starting to have expectations.

Because they realized that people are really bored of dark and gritty?
No people still like the Dark Knight, Winter Solider, and Civil War. They just got bored of pretentious nonsensical and stupid script writing. If you're going to do dark and gritty you have to be smart and Zack Synker was not.

Watched the new trailer. Meh.
If they kill most/all of the Amazons just for a stupid Worf effect to buildup Steppenwolf as a bad ass, I'm gonna have to deliver c*ckpunches to the writers and both directors.

I wouldn't have thought so, but then we get Whedon and major reshoots...

Never really understood why people loved or hated Joss Whedon. To me, he's just some guy that made some stuff I enjoyed. That said, it wouldn't surprise if Wheldon does fridge a couple of Amazons but keep Queen Hippolotya alive to warn the Justice League about the Big Bad. The first trailer even showed her alive fighting in the climax with a bunch of other Amazons, so chances are not every Amazon is going to die horribly, just some.
Anyways, I think the worst thing to happen to Whedon was people on the Internet deciding to make him the King of Strong Female Characters, which is funny and ridiculous in so many ways. Putting people on a pedestal is rarely a good idea.

Indeed. I hate, hate, hate how comic books (and other fantasy fare, like the Forgotten World movie) introduce new fantasy settings like Atlantis or a 'Land that Time Forgot' and then blow it up for whatever reason.
Come from a magical hidden land of cool people that have co-existed alongside humanity for millennia, like Attilan or the Savage Land (in Marvel) or Feithera (at DC)? Be prepared for your magical land to get destroyed / massively uprooted five times in ten years, the second a character from your land gets focus...
This also applies to planets, like Tamaran or the Skrull homeworld. May you be cursed to live in interesting times, indeed!
And now we know why everyone in fantasy worlds live in places like New York City. It may get pounded into dust every couple of years, but at least they get rebuilt. If you lived in a made-up place like Bialya or Qurac, you're screwed!
Heck, even seeing Amazons getting shot and killed in the beginning of Wonder Woman bugged me, if only because they are all thousands of years old and utterly irreplaceable.
I was intrigued by the name drop of the Green Lanterns, in the trailer, at least.

FINALLY!
It is so good to finally get someone to admit whedon isn't the golden child!

I'm not fighting Steven Seagal for the title. But I wouldn't mind replacing Finn Jones as the Iron Fist.

I think Whedon had/has legitimate skills and a talent for good story telling. But he's reached a point in his career where he doesn't have to listen to editors & advisors anymore, he seems to be believing his hype as infallible and a "feminist", and he can mostly autopilot it. Not that making major films isn't hard work, he just doesn't seem to be growing & experimenting anymore. He's in his Fat Elvis years.

Meh. I really don't mind that trope that much in comic books. It never lasts and ultimately the status quo will return eventually with everything returning to as it was. NYC will be rebuilt, the Inhumans will live on the Moon again, Batgirl will walk again, the Fantastic Four will come back, Captain America won't be a Nazi forever and death means nothing if your a popular character, looking at you Superman.

I find that a little amusing, since Attilan wasn't on the moon, but in the Himalayas until sometime in the 80s. Why is that the status quo that will return?

Wow. Never really seen anyone put it that way, but yeah, Whedon is definitely in his Fat Elvis phrase and could end up like George Lucas next.

Pretty sure that happened with the last couple seasons of Buffy, he's been coasting and been extremely hit or miss ever since.

Also I just want... well not a SERIOUS Flash but a Barry Allen that doesn't screw things up. Is that too much to ask?
That Barry died in the Crisis on Infinite Earths, and apparently isn't coming back. In the current comics, he's written as a bit of a goof who even Wonder Woman mocks for being kind of naïve and hopeless.
When I was a teen, both Barry and Hal were experienced adult heroes that I could look up to. Now the former's barely-competent, and the latter is an obnoxious frat-boy who letches on Wonder Woman, gets punked by Batman (who literally grabs the ring off of his finger to look at it) and ends up screwing up so egregiously that it trashes the entire Justice League's reputation and leads to him leaving.
Technically, there are characters named Barry Allen and Hal Jordan back alive again in the modern-day DCU (and soon to appear on-screen), but they are, IMO, far more insulting to the memories of the original characters of those names than legacies like Wally West, John Stewart or Kyle Rayner ever have been.

Don't you worry jeff. Once Marvel comics hits rock bottom in sales I think we can all expect a big reboot ala DC's 52. Peter Parker might even return to being a teenager. Huzzah!!!

!!!THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!!
Henry Cavill's inability to remove his mustache in the upcoming Justice League has forced the effects department to digitally remove it in the film. No s%!#, this is costing them millions.
Alright, that last part is probably BS but the rest is true and hilarious in my opinion.
