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.

IT(2017):Lazy Review

Written By
  I've been stuck thinking about what to post and I got nothing. But I remembered that I watched "IT" late December and I wasn't scared surprisingly. I mean,they were a couple of jump scares but overall nothing really scared me. It was a fun movie though and I see why it got a sequel announced and universal praise. It's based of the first chapter of the Stephen King novel of the same name and I have read a couple of pages from  the book but I haven't finished it because I'm lazy and I procrastinate a lot(I haven't still finished reading a song of ice and fire).   Set in the '90-somethings(I'm lazy don't eat me) in a town of something,something(I know,you're disappointed) a series of kids get missing and the adults of the town act like nothing's happening. Bill Denbrough(that's right,I remembered his name) looses his brother as well. Billy and other kids in the town(including his friends) start to see th...

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...

Samurai Champloo: Why Is It So Good?

Written By
   In the year 2005, the anime community had one of their gems; Samurai Champloo come out. Its well written and set in an extremely lively version of old school (Edo) japan. Its storyline is simple, two extremely skilled yet very different swordsmen Mugen and Jin have fate bring them across a young outspoken lady Fuu who helps them out of a tough spot and insist on them accompany her to find the very vaguely named “samurai who smells of sunflowers”. This serves as the catalyst that carries us on a well voiced, animated, and extremely stylistic adventure across japan towards the course of its 20 plus episode run. Here are some of the reasons I think Samurai Champloo is so enjoyable   1. TONE AND SETTING: One of the reasons it works so well is that even with its fictional story, its grounded in reality without being overly dramatic or serious. Most films, shows and games based off old eras like this usually take themselves super serious and in the process turn out being bla...

Severance: An Unforgettable Thriller

Written By
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you didn't remember the stress of your workplace when you get home? From the mind of Dan Erickson, directed by Ben Stiller and Aoife McArdle, Severance offers an answer to the aforementioned question and pushes the limit by asking " when your consciousness is spilt into two, which one is the real you? " The series follows a severed employee at Lumon, Mark who has recently been promoted to the Head of Microdata and Refinement Department after the sudden resignation of his boss and the recruitment of a new employee, Helly Riggs. Plot Severance has a unique plot, while the execution of a series without a definite blueprint can prove difficult, it does not fall into this hole. The series answers (almost)all the questions it poses in the first few episodes but ends on a note that will leave you spiraling and brimming with inquisitiveness.  Characters For every character, we follow two distinct ...
