Based on the first episode it now has to be Zarathos (or an actual superhuman entity with power over people's souls) or else it will turn out badly. Daisy is feeling guilty for all the shit she pulled when she was under Hive's control and believes she is to be blamed for her actions. But in 4x01 Daisy says "You dont get to decide who deserves to die" to which Robbie says "I am not the one who decides" which means that when in Ghost Rider form, the entity that possesses him is the one that judges if a person deserves to die or not. Zarathos being an actual demon assigned to bring down vengeance uppon sinners is actually a really nice way to show us that Daisy was indeed not responsible for her actions under Hive's control, which is why the Rider spared her. If its just the spirit of his dead uncle though it wouldn't make any sense for him to let her live
I have to stress something again.people bitching about how Marvel villains werebad,look at Luthor....ahahahahahahah just watch the movie and LOOK AT LUTHOR
Started of well,nightmare sequence was confusing as fuck,too much stuff packed in the movie,way too rushed,almost no character invested,plot was all over the place if non existant at all,editing despite what most people say was fine,Doomsday was mediocre at best,acting is fine,visuals are fine,the bad guy has no motive,destruction porn,a few CGI scenes aren't that good but they re not bad either in short i would give it a 3/10.
Now,take into account i prefer Marvel over DC,but even though i didn't expect it to be like a Marvel Film,i was hoping it would be balanced but oh boy it wasn't.Its better than GL and almost like MoS in tone but THE FUCKING PLOT IS AAAAAAAAAAAAAALL OVEEEEEERAAAAAAAAA THA PLACEEEEEEEE!
SPOILERS AHEAD:
So at best i could say its an average movie,and you will probably need to be a little high to enjoy it.The opening sequence that shows Bruce's early childhood and his prespective on the Metropolis destruction was really good.Then we are introduced to the kryptonite though and Lex who appears to want it to make a weapon that will kill Superman for reasons,cause there is no actual motive shown behind his actions.He is more of an amalgam of the Joker and the Riddler rather than the serious menacing Luthor that we know.Then,we get to see how people view Superman which is another interesting element of the whole movie.AND THEN,WE SEE WONDER WOMAN.I dont recall the last time i saw Diana acting like a spy,and more than that,she was able to find the device Bruce placed in Lex's servers while she was more than 1 floor away from him when he placed the tracker/decrypter.Apparently,she was after a picture of hers from World War 2 i guess,for which picture though she looked like she posed actually.Meaning it wasn't actually a pic taken against her will or something.Anyway,moving forward.Lex proceeds to blow up the Senet,making it look like Superman did it and Batman actually takes the bait,even though its plain as the sky that such an explosion was not caused by Superman but by a freaking bomb.I just remembered,earlier in the film there is a tracker placed inside a reporter's camera who assists Lois Lane so that if she is in danger,Sups can save her.Who put that tracker in there and why is beyond explanation.Its supposed to be placed by Lex to lure Superman in there,after Lex's agents have taken out most of the terrorists to make it look like Superman did it.But how did Lex know that Superman would appear when Lois was in danger is also beyond explanation.
Moving forward,Batman finally decides to take on Superman and opens up the bat signal to lure Superman in.Meanwhile,Lex threatens Superman that if he doesn't fight Batman,he will kill his mother(step mother) who again we have no clue as to how he identified her.Superman proceeds to fight him,ends up getting almost killed but then all of a sudden Lois appears at the right place at the right time out of PURE CHANCE to prevent Clark's death.After she talks Batman out of killing Clark,Batman proceeds to save Clark's mother while Clark goes after Luthor.The spear Batman would have used to kill Clark is thrown in a water pit and you get this feeling that this weapon will be used as a finishing tool in the final fight.Anyway,Batman fight afterwards,great sequence and then o my God,we get to Doomsday...To start of with that atrocity,he was born out of a mix of Zod's corpse and Lex's blood,which he dripped in Zod's face by slicing his palm BEFORE the mainframe computer told him anything about the procedure.Actually,the blood could have nothing to do with the whole transformation but anyway.The mainframe states it hosts information from over 100.000 different worlds(hold than in mind).We then get Doomsday who looks like an oversized grey troll,who for some reason produces a huge energy explosion when under attacked for whatever reason(they said he absorbed the energy,but clearly he emits much more than he "Drains"),he grows bones every time he gets attacked and is your casual total savage monster you would expect.In the end,the military sees that weapons cant do anything to it,and Batman with Superman realize than ONLY KRYPTONIAN weapons can kill it.They get the spear back(which is not kryptonian by the way,it just has a kryptonian rock on top of it),and proceed to stab Doomsday in the chest with it,which for some reason seems to be killing him,even though Wonder Woman's sword was able to also cut through his skin pretty easily but hey,lets make it dramatic.Then of course Superman gets stabbed to the chest as well by one of Doomsday's bones that replaced the hand Wonder Woman cut off,which took out almost his entire thorax as it went fully through him.So,Superman should be dead now.He wasn't knocked out,he HAD A HUGE WHOLE IN HIS CHEST,AND IT WAS NIGHT,SO NO SUNLIGHT TO MAGICALLY REVIVE HERE.After the whole drama funeral music,Batman visits Lex in prison and Luthor seems to be going crazy as he starts spewing crap like "HE IS COMING!# AGHAHAHA! THE BELLS HAVE RUNG AND U CANT UNDO IT!" probably talking about Darkseid,about which only God knows how he knows that he is coming on earth,since he didnt really have much time to study all the information on the kryptonian database and plus,that database was limited and the ship functioning to 38% of its capacity,so how the fuck could the spaceship computer know that a galactic god will come towards earth 1 year after it(the ship) was nearly destroyed and received no new information from any outside sources for the last year,is mind blowing.Then we get to the final scene where Batman tells WW to help him find all the other meta humans cause they will need to fight,she asks what,and he says i have a feeling,and then we see underground Superman's corpse case and the dirt of top of it starts to levitate for a brief second indicating he is alive.How the fuck did he recover from a whole in his chest is beyond the average viewer.
Let me also say,the Flash's cameo was fine,Aquaman's was shit,he acted like a caveman in his scene where he was poking an underwater droid with his trident like what the fuck,and Cyborg's also weird,showing a cube that acted like it was made of living nanotechnology and started fusing with a crippled body without any reason at all but anyways.
Now on to the big shit with Batman's nightmare sequence.He gets apprehended in a world where the world is taken over by Darkseid(which only fans will understand,by the huge omega on a deserted spot on the face of the earth) and Superman works for him.As he(Batman) wakes up from that sequence a form appears(which seems to be either the Flash or Cyborg) telling him that she (Lois Lane) is the key and that he has to stop him (probably Superman).This form appears to be time travelling to warn Batman of future events.But even that event is happening in a freaking dream.Its almost like an inception level thing.Which makes no sense.
Ok i am gonna say it.I prefer Marvel over DC but yeah,this Doomsday looks decent.He has those iconic bone things on his body so i am cool with it,even though his face does indeed look like Abomination.But Batman holding a gun in the end? Wut?
