The past year hasn't seen much luck for the DCEU. That's not to say last year's
Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad were financial
catastrophes, but critical ones they were, with their biggest downfalls being
their focus on future movies rather than themselves (in a bid of course to
catch up with the superior MCU), and with narratives made painfully-incoherent
through some generally bad writing and post-editing. And though we've familiarised
ourselves with the Wonder Woman and Justice League trailers over the past six
or so months, it seemed that all hope was already lost; that the franchise
would never do any better than Man of Steel and was doomsday'd to fail.
