I laughed way too hard at this.

I don't agree with the ranking but nice list.

This was fun to read.

Amazing read

Really enjoyed your list, and I can't stress how glad I was you included your reasonings. Too many people just list them without including reasonings, which is boring to read.

My personal ranking, best to worst:

1. Wonder Woman: I rewatched this movie yesterday and it's still one of my favourite superhero movies. I honestly think Gadot is up there with Reynolds, Downey and Jackman in terms of perfectly cast CB characters. It's just an old-fashioned CBM about heroism, hope and sacrifice. I love most CBMs, but that aspect seems to be an afterthought to a lot of them. And it features the best romance in a CBM. I love the smaller moments such as the boat scene and the dance between Diana/Steve. Just an all around inspiring movie, great adventure and great romance.
2. Batman v Superman: There's a big gap between WW and this. Here's the thing. I don't think this movie is bad. Disappointing? Yes. Should it have been better? Definitely. But expectations aside, It's simply mediocre. It's clunky, the titular fight is terrible, Superman is badly written, building up the conflict between Supes/Bats proved useless because Supes ultimately fights him to save his mother and the resolution to the fight was badly executed. It's a very flawed film, but not bad, as it has aspects I like - cinematography is gorgeous, Batfleck is great, the warehouse sequence is amazing, all overall it's not as incompetent people make it out to be.
3. Man of Steel: This movie is not good. This is gonna sound unpopular, but this is worse than BvS. Themes such as "how will humanity react to Superman?" are taken nowhere, themes in general are terribly handled and structured (Clark is showing saving people in his first scene, before it even sets up the conflict of Clark saving people being dangerous), pacing is awful and the flashbacks are terribly handled. I've literally written paragraphs upon paragraphs explaining why it's so garbage from a storytelling/structural standpoint. It has a great score, some great action and some scenes are very stylish, but the storytelling is too garbage to compensate.
4. Justice League: This movie is just nothing. It has no soul. Then again, I'm hesitant to even call it a movie - it's more of a Frankenstein of a product. Superman's CGI moustache is laughable, there are a lot of scenes with zero buildup: they just begin and end. The CGI is like a PS2 video-game at some points, the red-sky in the climax was awful, the reshoots were poor quality: looked like a porn parody at points, Batman was turned into a joke, the pacing is garbage and Lois was at her worst here. What a shitty excuse for the first live-actin JL movie.
5. Suicide Squad: If it weren't for Fant4stic, I would genuinely say Suicide Squad is the worst movie I've ever seen in cinemas. The pacing is dreadful - I can't believe the first 20 minutes was actually character intros and flashbacks, the editing is awful on a micro and macro level (I highly recommend this video), Killer Croc and Katana don't do shit, Enchantress is a dreadful villain, the dialogue in this movie is laughably bad, the colour grading is awful, Diablo sacrifices himself and is forgotten about, Slipknot is killed without a proper introduction, the music is terribly implemented and Jared Leto's Joker is the most cringe-worthy thing to come out of the DCEU. I'm trying to think of something I liked, but.... I'm genuinely struggling. I guess some of the casting choices were good?

Justice league in top 5?

Must give credit to this handsome hunka hunka. This is both hilarious and true. Though if the fanboys see you giving Justice League so much lip it may cause a Pa Kent tornado to come down on you.

I cant be the only one to think that WW is a pretty mediocre movie even by CB standards . . .

Should get locked.

@lubub55 Why tho? Because of order, reasoning or the fact that I made this list?

@major_hellstrom Thanks, and what would your ranking be like?

@higherpower@_kingoflatveria Glad you liked it.

@apex_pretador Warner Brothers released only five movies that are a part of the DCEU. This is a DCEU ranking thread so it is meant to contain all the movies that are a part of that universe. Justice League is top 5 because we can't go further than top 5.

@jrupert1 If they want to complain about me complaining, I welcome them with opened arms. I said that myself in the OP. If they have a problem with it, that just proves they can't be objective and show nothing but bias, because I strait up said that if someone likes these movies, they have full right to like them and that everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

@stellaris A lot of people on internet and even Comic Vine think that Wonder Woman is a mediocre movie. I personally think it's above average/good, but again, that's just my subjective opinion.

@krleavenger: On an overall movie score, I wouldn't say almost any CB movie is something amazing. I don't think many CB movies, outside of a select few are actually great movies from a non comic book view of things.

Great list though. I haven't seen MoS or SS to say where they rank for me though.

Why? Does it break any language rules? It does not. Is it provocative? Not really. Is it meant to antagonize anyone? No it is not because I strait up said that I'm fine with people who like these movies and everyone who feels that way is entitled to their own opinion.

But just like they have right to love them, I also have right to complain about them.

Give me one good reason why this should be locked. Because there is nothing wrong with criticizing something you don't like, especially if that something is an interpretation you consider to be inaccurate and disrespectful towards stories and characters you really like.

I agree 100% with this list I'd rank them exactly the same way

@krleavenger: Justice League is better than Suicide Squad and tied with BvS IMO.

@destinyman75 Cool.

@major_hellstrom I see. I assume everything else would be the same.

@stellaris: Technically from non comic book movie perspective, most of Comic Book Movies aren't that great, I agree. But same goes for most "geeky" movies. They are made to accurately represent what they are based on while also provide it in a way relatable to comic book fanbase and non comic book fans. Although like you said, there are some Comic Book movies that can be called "amazing" even by non comic book fan's perspective.

@theamazingspidey

Really enjoyed your list, and I can't stress how glad I was you included your reasonings. Too many people just list them without including reasonings, which is boring to read.

Glad you enjoyed it. I also prefer when people give reasons. Although most users who don't bother to type in anything is because they know that a lot of people are too lazy to read, which is unfortunate.

Also pretty cool list. It's not that different from mine. You just exchanged BvS and MoS, and Suicide Squad and the Justice League.

Wonder Woman: I rewatched this movie yesterday and it's still one of my favourite superhero movies. I honestly think Gadot is up there with Reynolds, Downey and Jackman in terms of perfectly cast CB characters. It's just an old-fashioned CBM about heroism, hope and sacrifice. I love most CBMs, but that aspect seems to be an afterthought to a lot of them. And it features the best romance in a CBM. I love the smaller moments such as the boat scene and the dance between Diana/Steve. Just an all around inspiring movie, great adventure and great romance.

Gal Gadot is definitely one of the better ones. She captures Diana's best side as a person. Not the arrogant and annoying one she has become ever since she killed Maxwell Lord.

Batman v Superman: There's a big gap between WW and this. Here's the thing. I don't think this movie is bad. Disappointing? Yes. Should it have been better? Definitely. But expectations aside, It's simply mediocre. It's clunky, the titular fight is terrible, Superman is badly written, building up the conflict between Supes/Bats proved useless because Supes ultimately fights him to save his mother and the resolution to the fight was badly executed. It's a very flawed film, but not bad, as it has aspects I like - cinematography is gorgeous, Batfleck is great, the warehouse sequence is amazing, all overall it's not as incompetent people make it out to be.

Don't forget Riddler, I mean the Joker, I MEAN Lex Luthor.

Man of Steel: This movie is not good. This is gonna sound unpopular, but this is worse than BvS. Themes such as "how will humanity react to Superman?" are taken nowhere, themes in general are terribly handled and structured (Clark is showing saving people in his first scene, before it even sets up the conflict of Clark saving people being dangerous), pacing is awful and the flashbacks are terribly handled. I've literally written paragraphs upon paragraphs explaining why it's so garbage from a storytelling/structural standpoint. It has a great score, some great action and some scenes are very stylish, but the storytelling is too garbage to compensate.

Oh right, the pacing of this movie is also awful.

Justice League: This movie is just nothing. It has no soul. Then again, I'm hesitant to even call it a movie - it's more of a Frankenstein of a product.

Couldn't say it better myself. It is made just to be there. It wasn't made to be good, hell even decent film.

Superman's CGI moustache is laughable, there are a lot of scenes with zero buildup: they just begin and end. The CGI is like a PS2 video-game at some points, the red-sky in the climax was awful, the reshoots were poor quality: looked like a porn parody at points, Batman was turned into a joke, the pacing is garbage and Lois was at her worst here. What a shitty excuse for the first live-actin JL movie.

I don't remember a single form of dialogue from Lois in that movie. She just appears from nowhere.

Suicide Squad: If it weren't for Fant4stic, I would genuinely say Suicide Squad is the worst movie I've ever seen in cinemas. The pacing is dreadful - I can't believe the first 20 minutes was actually character intros and flashbacks, the editing is awful on a micro and macro level (I highly recommend this video), Killer Croc and Katana don't do shit, Enchantress is a dreadful villain, the dialogue in this movie is laughably bad, the colour grading is awful, Diablo sacrifices himself and is forgotten about, Slipknot is killed without a proper introduction, the music is terribly implemented and Jared Leto's Joker is the most cringe-worthy thing to come out of the DCEU. I'm trying to think of something I liked, but.... I'm genuinely struggling. I guess some of the casting choices were good?

The only good thing is the casting choice yes. And thanks for the video. I'll check it out.

@krleavenger: Because of the title.

@krleavenger: The title is reason enough, you're entitled to your opinion but you shouldn't phrase it in such manner.

@thekinfing: You mean "shitty"? That doesn't break the forum rules but I can remove it.

Batmurder is the best part of the DCEU. Get over yourself.

Why do I have to go over something I don't necessarily disagree with?

There all good guilty pleasure films.

@stellaris: You aren't.

@danieldaripper: That they are, at least depending on who you ask.

I kind of get what you mean by Justice League being the worst. Don't get me wrong, Suicide Squad sucks, but Justice League had the most potential and was squandered so painfully. Not just that, but at least Suicide Squad is somewhat enjoyable with how cringy and awful it was, but Justice League was just boring & forgettable mostly.

Oh yeah, you hit the nail on the head with your rant on Ezra Miller's "Flash"

I would rank Suicide Squad higher than Batman v Superman because i find it so bad that it's hilarious.

I am just waiting for My favorite Director James Wan's Aquaman movie trailer.

Agree with your list JL is the worst of them all.

@mutant1230: Exactly. Suicide Squad was always a lackluster team popularity wise and story wise. It was never that noticeable or popular aside from few exceptions. Justice League is a big deal composed of the most popular characters ever. So the fact that that movie is so bad actually makes it worse because making a movie about Suicide Squad already leaves room closed for anything but mediocrity at best. The fact that Justice League is so bad is just a crime, but Suicide Squad is bad because it can't be that good, simply because those characters are just not for the lead roles for a movie.

Oh yeah, you hit the nail on the head with your rant on Ezra Miller's "Flash"

I like the fact that you put quotation marks there.

==========================================================================

@all-father: That also makes sense. Honestly, I didn't feel that way for Suicide Squad because mostly I was trying to stay awake. For me, it wasn't even one of those movies you can laugh at.

@galactic_1000:I'm not too excited for Aquaman but I can be open-minded. We'll see what the movie will turn out to be. I hope Ocean Master show up. He's my favorite Aquaman villain.

I personally preferred the SS to MoS and BvS, as well as BvS to MoS, but solid ranking.

@krleavenger: Ocean Master is the main Villain.

Well I am excited only because of James Wan.

@anthp2000: Makes sense.

@galactic_1000: That's great to hear.

They all sucked except wonder woman ,but even that movie was overrated.

@runekingthor98: Pretty much. Not sure about Wonder Woman being overrated tho. Most people seem to acknowledge the fact that the movie had some flaws related to villains and later on, Ares. The only people who do not acknowledge it (at least based on my personal experience) either don't care either way, or they are those people who defend these movies as "misunderstood masterpieces", and that is more of a standard DCEU wank rather than Wonder Woman movie wank. But again, this is mostly subjective due to different views and experiences with different users on this site.

By the way, it's good to see you post again. It's been what, a year+ since we had a conversation.

@krleavenger: yes it has I'm going to be back on more and more! miss this lol.

@runekingthor98: Great.

@krleavenger: The reason wonder woman is overrated is ,because its the only good dceu movie so the fanboys have to overrate it and say its a masterpiece. It was above average movie with horrible cgi and a trash villain.

@runekingthor98: Well, CGI and Villain are pretty bad LOL.
