One of the biggest problems of the DC universe is that it can't handle the sense of balance. From the very beginning, pushing Superman is destined to be a difficult road for the Super League. I have never had a good impression of Superman. First, it is too far away from the general public and does not resonate with the general public. , Second, one person can beat the world and give up whoever is mine. As a single-player movie, it can be played to the fullest. Working together will show the drawbacks: God and mortals fight side by side, and how to balance it becomes a problem.
Zha Dao has made his best efforts to leave Superman absent in the first two hours, so that other heroes can occupy the main position, and outline the image fully, and the characters can be regarded as standing up, compared to the opening of the theater version. It is to pay homage to Superman. This sense of balance is just right, showing that in the absence of Superman, Chaoying, who fought alone, finally came together, and performed scenes of cooperation and collaboration on the battlefield. Team spirit, and finally paved by the mother box Come up with a reason why Superman must be resurrected, and finally let everyone see that Superman is not omnipotent. He can take care of the front, but not the rear. The Flash has succeeded in reversing time. Such an arrangement makes people stand up and applaud. This is the Justice League. real look. I have to say that Zha Dao's art of balance has been the most successful in the DC universe.
In contrast to the Avengers next door, I just wrote "Mortal Curtain Call Universe Unfolding". Marvel has developed a huge universe view from the perspective of civilians and ordinary people, and various super-premierial abilities have gradually appeared, making it easy for the audience to accept each time, so it can be Continue to rise to a larger perspective to pave the way for a broader story, but DC's approach is the chapter of the epic gods, not the mortal Batman of Nolan and Zha Dao who shaped the flesh-and-blood mortal Batman and the Joker. The chapter of God will not be able to hold back. From the popularity of the Dark Knight trilogy and the Joker, it is enough to see the true superhero image in the hearts of the general public: close to mortals, surpassing mortals, and standing shoulder to shoulder with gods.
We regret that the mortal Iron Man snapped his fingers to save the world with his mortal body, but we do not regret the defeat of Batman by Superman, because of course , as a superman who exists like a god, even Batman who has exhausted the extremes of mankind, The strength gap is not in the same universe at all. It was not until later that in order to maintain the balance of the Justice League, a BVS movie was made, and the less common kryptonite was barely able to defeat Superman. Holding kryptonite all the time, not to mention that this setting was forcibly added later, there is nothing wrong with the direction of Zha Dao’s Justice League. After all, Darkseid is equal to or even surpasses Superman, even Zeus, who appeared briefly, can match, The director intends to weaken the existence and importance of Superman in this regard, and highlight the importance of the alliance, but the mistakes of the initial setting and accumulation cannot be changed.
After all, the other members of the Justice League can support at most one demigod, such as Aquaman and Wonder Woman, and then the change of body and ability, such as Flash and Cyborg, leaving a real mortal Batman. At the end of the plot, even the director also It is irretrievable to let One Punch Man debut. Several demigods together are not as good as a demigod Steppenwolf. He was beaten to the core. Consistent with the theatrical version, One Punch Man debuts, and Steppenwolf does not. The enemy has no power to fight back, so the plot here must be discounted.
After all, with the Avengers in front, Thanos can only be regarded as a demigod, wearing gloves is a god, a few demigods such as Thor, a few mortals such as Captain America and Iron Man, can still fight him, even if Iron Man It took so much effort to make God shed a drop of blood, and we can applaud it, but we have no feelings for Superman. Marvel is not without mistakes. The steps are too big to create a surprise captain, and the word of mouth is broken. The general public is not only indifferent, but complains all over the sky, making her take a back seat in Avengers 4, and finally bombing the spaceship and preventing Thanos. After making a contribution, even the Scarlet Witch, who can destroy the universe, was arranged to be turned into ashes in Avengers 3, and she made a brief appearance in Avengers 4. The main positions of several Avengers have not been shaken.
What we should pay attention to is that Marvel is actually as good as DC in superhero ability, but it has been greatly weakened in the movie, so as not to affect the balance, but DC obviously did not put this One point is too good. Superman has been super god for decades, and he can't stop his steps. It has a lot to do with DC itself not thinking about the later cosmology. After all, it was only after seeing the popularity of the Avengers that they formed the Justice League.
Since the other members of the Justice League had independent movies except Batman and Superman at that time, which the public was more familiar with, others were added later. The female hero, the reason why the American drama The Flash made everyone make up for the class is because he is the only one who does not have independent movies in the movie. Others don't need to explain too much, everyone is familiar with it, and this is the biggest reason why the role of steel bones is highlighted in this version.
However, there is obviously a problem with the arrangement of the members of the Justice League. One is the extreme of human beings, mortals, and the other is the transcendence of human beings. It is God. As long as Batman is the main member, he cannot rely on high technology and mental ability alone. He was divided in half by the steel bones, which caused Batman's status to plummet. He was always in an embarrassing position of high technology and striking ability, and became a rich man who could fly a plane. Besides, money is too unimportant in the DC universe, let alone Zha. The guide version of Wonder Woman and Superman can fly, and how to deal with the balance between Batman and the heroes has also become a problem.
I personally think that if you join Batman, you can't describe Superman in a big way. The two have become the object of a zero-sum game. Please imagine the Justice League without Batman. Superman seems to be less embarrassing. Imagine if there is no Superman justice The alliance seems to be easier for people to accept. The former is to challenge the gods, and the latter is to challenge the evil of the demigods. Everyone has different ideas on how they feel.
You can join Superman in the follow-up, but you can't join Superman at the beginning. The mode of fighting monsters can be upgraded, and mortals abdicate in turn to give way to superheroes. Although this step-by-step method is copied from the Avengers, it is advisable anyway. . At least Zhadao is gradual in the setting of Darkseid. Darkseid of the ancient battle will not be defeated by Omega rays. Why does Superman not grow slowly?
In the last chapter, Darkseid's huge spaceship in the dim sky is terminated as the god of the mortal world, leaving Batman and other old gods to survive, this is the game between the highest civilization of mankind and the evil god, the dark superman Come from the sky, the chapter of Ragnarok is about to open, this kind of setting cannot but be said to be particularly interesting, but it is a pity that it only exists in a dream that is at most a parallel universe. If it becomes the reality of the Justice League, Superman can abdicate. , you can go to another parallel universe to save life, just like Marvel's Captain Marvel has countless planets to save, and quietly resolve the sense of destruction caused by balance, it may be better to do so.
But it is a pity that this only exists in the fantasy of Zha Dao's follow-up works. It is difficult to become a reality for fans. Zha Dao's world and universe have been ended. We can only expect better ideas from Warner and DC. But at present, it seems that it is difficult for them to stop the myth of super gods, such as Thunder Shazam, such as Wonder Woman 2, and no amount of Batman and Joker can save the broken Justice League.
