WHY DOES THE MEDIA HATE THE DCEU???

All week we’ve all heard a ton of rumors concerning the DCEU and its just plain stupid. If you think there is no BIAS against the DCEU then please stop reading because nothing I say here will interest you in any way or form.
There are obvious reasons why I believe there is BIAS, I know some of you who do not agree are all like “But, but wonder woman got more than 80% on rotten tomato” well I have an answer to that it is called FEMINISM!!!. Hey am not trying to say Wonder Woman only performed well because we live in a world ruled by feminist agenda,(From the last two female led Star wars movies to Wonder Woman)and even though Wonder Woman was a very good movie it would have been torn apart for being a DC movie if it had a male lead.
Here are some of the reasons why the DCEU gets hate from the media;
PEOPLE ARE TO USED TO MARVEL
The marvel cinematic universe has done a great job turning superhero movies into something mainstream and that Is one of the reasons why the DCEU is suffering. Marvel’s approach has always been more comedic and less serious and DC is doing the exact opposite of that and that actually makes most critics think DC is doing it ‘wrong’. If critics could just be open minded and see DC is doing their own thing we’ll see that peaceful coexistence is a strong possibility and we’ll stop seeing those annoying fan boy wars in the comment section of each Marvel or DC post on social media.
THE FAN BOYS
I can not deny the fact that to some extent I can be described as being a “FAN BOY’ but of recent I have been trying not to but the same can not be said about other fan boys. All they do is trash the rival’s company’s image(in this case,DC’s)and this is done each time they post dumb rumors like ‘my brother’s friend’s sister’s boyfriend has a cousin who watched The Justice League Movie early and he thinks it’s a disjointed mess”. The annoying part is sites like cosmicbook news,cbr,io9 and screen rant actually report these things and it is extremely annoying. Fanboys are really killing the DCEU and that includes the DC fanboys!Yes! I said it...we are unfortunately destroying ourselves by buying into this fake rumours and getting baited by marvel fan boys,why can't we act mature and be chill?maybe grab shawarma? Or say nice things about our rivals? No?,well I tried.
SUPER HERO/COMIC BOOK MOVIE FATIGUE
People are growing tired of comic book movies and by people i mean 'CRITICS' and i can understand why at least to some extent. I Feel like they think they are repetitive and like it or not it is because of Marvel's dominance and continous success which is Ironic is they are going against the DCEU brand that is actually putting out different type of movies. Maybe the critics just want to go back to the good old days when they didn't have to worry about super villains destroying cities and opening up portals. Hopefully they change their mind set and see the DCEU as a breath of fresh air.
They are a bunch of other things but they are probably part of my paranoia so I will not talk about that at all. So again thank you for reading please like, share and subscribe…you can comment too so I won’t feel like am talking to myself.

    Probably because there is too much weight on the characters to outweigh their previous iterations and therefore leave fans splitted. We've seen too many iterations of these iconic characters and thus new ones would just leave discords amongst fans.. That's why the MCU would always be critical darlings.. They don't have the issues of trying to do better than the previous iterations of their characters, with Homecoming being the only exception and that worked for it because fans clamoured for it after Spider-Man 3 and the Amazing Spiderman movies failed to connect with fans.. Yes they were entertaining buy they didn't really bring anything new. Same with Wonder Woman and Linda Carter's version.

First Listen: Hamond - Pirate Radio

Written By
  since i heard  windows , i have been sloppy on Hamond.  Pirate Radio  is almost everything i imagine indie pop to be. it's glittery, experimental, vocal, and hard work. half the time, i don't even understand his poetry but it sounds so  damn good . the other half explores experiences of failed/failing relationships, problematic partners, and misplaced gaiety. storytelling like this always gets me into a frenzy, especially with fitting production.  the unconventional mix and production sets this art piece aside from the rest within its genre. especially the drums. nothing cliché with his lyrics or style of music. just pure, honest music that makes me bust some ass to his misfortune. 😀 mehn, it is definitely one of the better listens from 2022. give it a spin?

Why I Love: One Piece

Written By
      Last year was quite a hard time for me, it was my final year at the university and for what  felt like the first time in my life, I was truly struggling with school. Not the “oh I’m scared I might not do well” but I was genuinely doing bad. This wasn’t because I wasn’t reading or not putting in the work, it was just because I was given a terrible lecturer as a supervisor. I used to think I had a good relationship with him but during the course of the second semester I began to see a shift in his personality and obvious hate towards me. As someone who struggles with insecurities, I was constantly insulted and ridiculed for no real reasons and even though I knew what he said about me wasn’t true,  I was still hurt. Hurt not just because of how he made me feel bad but hurt because the idea of failing and disappointing my parents and family in general was killing me on the inside and I had no means to express how trapped I felt. You’re probably wondering, “Why...

The Originals: No Always And Forever

Written By
   The Spinoff of the vampire diaries has finally ended and after spending 5 years of my life watching it I can only use one sentence to summarize how I felt after seeing it "what the fuck did I just watch"?.                           * MILD  SPOILERS AHEAD* Now,this season has a whole has been bad like...more bad than season 4 but I was like "I'll manage,it's the final season,I need to just be patient with them". I should have opted out long ago,I honestly don't know why Julie Plec(the show runner) is so inconsistent with the universe and bad at ending things. I gave her a pass for shitty The Vampire Diaries ending but this one just vexes me so much.    How can you hunt us with the "always and  forever" quote since the vampire diaries and not let us see it happen. I mean ...what was the point of everything?. I never liked Hayley but when they killed her earlier this season,par...

Ant-man and The Wasp(2018)

Written By
  For me,one of the MCU films that stands out and is genuinely funny is the first Ant-man. So when I heard about the sequel I was happy,Ant-man didn't try to be a masterpiece or anything it was just a relatable superhero movie that had very cool characters and a wannabe Obadiah Stane villain.   I like checking out reviews of movies before I see them and also like getting in depth analysis from my favorite youtubers like Jeremy Jahns just so I can have an idea of what am going into. And so from what reviewers were saying it seemed like this was a bad movie and that it was pointless one YouTube reviewer who I love even went on to sat Michelle Pfeiffer was confused and didn't know what she was doing in the damn film. Fast forward to me seeing the film,I finally got to make an opinion of my own and kind of see where some reasonable people were coming from. I mean there's a lot of confusing stuff here that doesn't hold up with the continuity such as Ghost's b...
