As promised, here are my thoughts on the Justice League movie. :D Okay, so I'm two weeks later than I intended.... haha. [insert that insane looking emoji with the bugged eyes and tongue sticking out]
First off, this might be my favorite DCEU film, not counting Wonder Woman (which is a better all around film). Yes, that surprised me, too. I was prepared to be bored. Honestly, the entire DCEU just has a really hard job, imo, and I'm a generous viewer, not particularly inclined to be hypercritical of an OTT superhero film. I mean, they are behind the eight ball right from the get go. At least with me, these films are a hard sell. Partly because I REALLY REALLY loved Superman as a kid. Really loved him. Huge huge fan of Christopher Reeve's Clark Kent. He will always be Superman for me. Always. So every time I see Superman performed by a different actor (and not to single out Cavill; he's fine. it's literally anyone else other than CR), it's... well. Not the same.
To a lesser degree I have that problem with Batman, too. But at least with Batman we have a gazillion other films with a constant rotation of Batmans, it's easier accepting Affleck in the role. But... well, more on that behind the cut. Yet, I am very much attached to Christian Bale's Batman. I admit it. I loved that guy. I loved that trilogy. Everything about it. It pretty much gave me everything I could ever want with Bruce Wayne/Batman, (except for the lack of Robin. )
ANYWAY. I ramble. Friends, I even watched Justice League TWICE! And not only that! I went and.... (wait for it)....searched AO3 and read fic. *GASP*. I even searched out Bruce/Barry... I know. I have no idea who I am right now. there isn't much, though, for that pairing on ao3, and most of it is ridiculous.
( My wandering thoughts on the Justice League movie....and a fic rec. )Well that's me succeeding at a decent amount of procrastination lol. Now, back to editing.
