Post-Aquaman...Rank the DCEU

Great minds think alike. The only thing I liked about MOS was the Smallville fight and Zods broadcast/reveal message (that was awesome).

I saw your list. Suicide Squad and Justice League are on a similar level to me but I put SS on top because I found it a bit more fun. Plus El Diablo's final form was badass!

JL has Jason so..... :lmao: The plot of it was slightly less embarrassing than Squad where I'm still not sure what the plot was exactly. MoS is close to unwatchable to be.

Lol true JL has Jason (and Gal) but it has that really terrible Superman vs JL scene. I've come to hate that scene. On the flip side SS has Margot, Viola, Jay and Jai, who I feel all nailed their roles, and that awesome bar scene (and a killer soundtrack!)
 
Superman vs the JL was amazing it's definitely a top 5 scenes/sequences in any of the DCEU movies. Infact hold a gun to my head what is my favourite scene/sequence from each film:

1) Man of Steel - Escape From Black Zero
2) Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - Enter Wonder Woman
3) Suicide Squad - Batman ruins date night
4) Wonder Woman - No Man's Land
5) Justice League - Superman vs the League
6) Aquaman - The Trench
 
That "Batman ruins date night" scene should come with epilepsy warning, that editing....:)

MoS - I can't think of one good scene
BvS - ehhhhh....warehouse scene I guess?
Squad - Bar scene
Wonder Woman - No Man's Land
JL - Icky Thump
Aquaman - Entering Atlantis/Arthur uses the Trident of Atlan

MOS - not even Flight?

I am not shocked at all by Icky Thump :funny:
 
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
Man of Steel
Aquaman
Justice League
Wonder Woman
Suicide Squad
 
1. Aquaman 8/10
2. Wonder Woman 8/10
3. Man Of Steel 6.5/10
4. Justice League 6/10
5. BvS 3/10
6. Suicide Squad 2/10

I would give SS a negative score if it weren't for Will Smith and Margot Robbie.

Have not seen SS or JL and probably never will. Here’s to a brighter DCEU.

That score for SS :hehe:

I’m morbidly curious to see it. One day
 
1 BvS UC
2. Wonder Woman.
3. Aquaman.
4. Man of Steel.
5. Justice League.
6. Suicide Squad.

If I use BvS theatrical version to rank movies,

1. Wonder Woman.
2. Aquaman.
3. Man of Steel.
4. Justice League.
5. Suicide Squad / Batman v Superman.

4, 5 & 6 on equal garbage fire footing: BvS, JL, SS 3/10

Not a great run, is it?

But improving slowly...
 
Okay DCEU movies in order of quality

1. Wonder Woman - best because GG was so good in the lead. 8/10

2. Man of Steel - Visually impressive, one of the best action sequences in any cbm and some good performances. Let down by the writers 7/10

3. Aquaman - fun, but a bit much cgi and some pretty average performances. .Jason Momoa is likeable, but he's really just playing himself. 6/10

4 - Justice League - not a good film, generic villain, lame plot but some good moments. Mildly entertaining. 5/10

5 - B v S - in a word " awful" the first 2 hours are just about unwatchable. 4/10

6- Suicide Squad..... makes B v S look pretty good, it's painful to watch. 2/10

Wow. The DCEU is slowly improving but has a long way to go before it comes even remotely close to the consistent success ( commercial and critical) of the unstoppable MCU.
 
Rating systems are so objective. Like a 6/10 is a D- in my eyes. Pretty much horrible. Aquaman gets a 8/10. It's an easy B-.
 
1 - Wonder Woman - objectively the best movie
2 - Aquaman - this would be my personal favorite DCEU movie, but objectively I do think WW is better
3 - Man of Steel - it has greatness in there, but it also absolute garbage
4 - Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - while flawed, I do think the people making it thought they were making something special...even if it fell short
5 - Justice League - this movie happened...people collected paychecks...and it was a forgettable movie with an infamously awful production history. It also looks cheap for a movie that expensive. Biggest wasted opportunity in the DCEU easily
6 - Suicide Squad - straight up garbage that has few redeeming qualities
 
My current rating as of now, but I may switch aquamans place with wonder woman after my second viewing. I loved Aquaman and it was a blast from beginning to end, but heres my current ranking.

Wonder Woman 9/10
Aquaman 8/10
Man of Steel 6/10
Suicide Squad 6/10 (Margot Robbie was literally the best part of the film)
Justice League 5/10
Batman vs Superman 4/10

Hot take incoming:

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice [Ultimate Edition]
Wonder Woman
Aquaman
Man of Steel (about tied with Aquaman for me, but Aquaman has the edge as it is a more well-rounded and fleshed out film)
Suicide Squad [Extended Cut] (a poorly executed and horrifically edited film that was seemingly botched more by WB than the filmmakers, has a few great moments/characterizations but has very poor rewatch value)
Justice League (just embarrassing and hard for me to rewatch at all)
 
1. Wonder Woman: Overall, its easily the best film. Its also proof that WB really didn't have to mess up Superman as bad as they have. The third act is pretty underwhelming. 7.5/10

2. Aquaman: Pretty much number 2 by default. Its ok, but it could've been better. 6.5/10

3. Man of Steel: Pretty much number 3 by default. Very beautiful looking film, but otherwise underwhelming and potentially infuriating in places. 5.5/10

4. Justice League: Is number 4 because its inoffensively bad instead of offensively bad. 5/10

5. Suicide Squad: Margot Robbie and Will Smith are pretty solid in this...thats pretty much the only good thing I can say about this. 4.5/10

6. Batman V Superman: What a dreary slog of a movie. And that goes for the Ultimate Cut as well. 4/10

Dude, do you mean "subjective" ? ( as in you're saying that rating systems are very much based on the opinion of the person watching the film). A truly objective rating system is just about impossible.

The way people throw objective and subjective around in these threads its easy to get the two mixed up.

I would totally agree with you that Aquaman is a B- it's better than a pass, but not a lot better.
