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.

DOOM PATROL

Written By
   The second DC Universe Live Action show; Doom Patrol just premiered and I must say, it was a really interesting watch. Following the lives of the Doom Patrol, a team of very strange heroes who we first encounter during an episode of Titans, the show sheds more light on how they came to be the "freaks" that they are now through a brilliant narrator who ties into the episode and beautiful acting from every member of the cast.   If you saw them in Titans, you might have been pissed off by the actor who played Chief there. I thought he was horrible and the show recast him with a much better and intense actor who carries each scene he's in. With just the first episode, I was very impressed by how funny, serious and emotional it was. Unlike the show before it, Doom Patrol managed to start off on a high note with so many possibilities, it actually manage to do the whole team dynamic better than the Titan show.  I could actually feel the bond amongst each member ...

Army Of The Dead: A Crazy Roller Coaster!

Written By
  Visionary director, Zack Snyder comes through with a new release following his long awaited director’s cut of 2017’s Justice League. This time (and thanks to Netflix), he has full creative control of the entire film.    Army of the dead was shot, written and directed by Zack himself and is his return to horror, the same genre of his first feature film “Dawn of the Dead”. Army of the dead is an extremely ambitious film with the potential for multiple sequels and spinoffs besides the already announced ones. I’ll try my best to make this a spoiler free review although I make talk or hint about certain things that happen in the film.   The film tells the story of a team of skilled men and women coming together to go to closed off zombie infested Las Vegas to retrieve millions of dollars from a vault before the US government nukes the entire place and its zombie residents. Each member of this team standout and feel like real people with personalities. There’s a lot...

UMBRELLA ACADEMY: WEIRD IS GREAT!

Written By
   I feel like this is the first time i have made a post about a show that just got released this early. Truth be told, i missed a class trying to binge all ten episodes of the new netflix show;  Doom Patrol  (that was a joke), sorry Umbrella Academy.   Honestly speaking, i find it truly intriguing how rare and fascinating how two really good and similar shows like Doom Patrol and Umbrella Academy got released during the same period of time. With the Netflix marvel shows being cancelled, i think its safe to say we'll still have our dosage of realistic superheroes on the small screen.   Based on the Dark Horse comic of the same name, Umbrella Academy tells the story of a group of kids who wan born on the same day in 1989 to mothers who weren't pregnant before that day. A rich man named Sir Reginald Hargreeves who managed to adopt seven kids out of the forty-three that were born on that day. With six of them(allegedly) having extraordinary pow...

KOE NO KATACHI: A REVIEW?

Written By
  Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice) is a 2016 Japanese [obviously] animated film written by Reiko Yoshida and directed by Naoko Yamada. The film is based on the manga of the same name, written by the great Yoshitoki Ōima. I just want to talk  type about this beautiful anime; don't think of this as some sort of review. P.S.: Little spoilers here and there. It starts off with Ishida - who'd later be the main male character - trying to commit suicide. And may I say... the musical build-up to the point where he is to jump off the bridge... SUBARASHI! It's utterly gorgeous [for the lack of a befitting word]. It's not over done with sad sounds or large synths. It's almost inaudible, gentle; it's the kind of music that would play in the head of a sad or depressed person. And it is explained in detail - his dilemma.  The movie's title makes sense because of Nishimiya. She's deaf. In middle school, she's a victim of bullying from her classmates in form of ignor...
