    Justice League Dark: Apocalypse War sucked.

    Just......sucked. So many moments where my brother and I just looked at each other and went ‘What?’.

    ...This recipe is definitely the epitome of " okay...But why though?"

    I will give props for David for putting it together regardless.

    "the vat of acid episode" was equal parts crazy, cool, touching, tragic and fucked up.

    spoilers:

    Lots of heroes get mauled and ripped apart by ParaDooms, Parademons + Doomsy, and either killed off or turned into cyborgs, like Starfire for instance, she gets ripped open, and a whole bunch of other characters get killed off as well over the course of the movie and the Earth is left in a ruined state.

    On the bright side, the final battle is insanely cool.

    And then it all gets wiped away by Flash time travel.

    So yeah, even edgy comics would say its edgy.

    Uchiha Sasuke during Shippuden, Shadow the Hedgehog, Reaper from Overwatch, and Spawn would tell Justice League Dark: Apocalypse War to calm down.
    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

    I mean, I have no intentions to watch Apocalypse War but seeing what little clips I find...Yeah, it probably is entertaining but overall I'm surprised at the balls it took.

    spoilers:
    Before you know, Flash retcon because the setting is just too depressing to move forward on.

    spoilers:


    Also, the Para-Dooms are the most inconsistent baddies ever. Oh, apparently it only takes three to overpower and maim Shazam, and one to break frigging Superboy’s neck, but dang it if Barbara Gordon, Batwoman, and Damien don’t all take more than their fair share of smacks from them without exploding. Heck, Babs even takes a few out. Powerless Clark Kent holds one at bay with chair.

    Captain Boomerang with Kryptonite edged boomerangs takes out over a dozen. The same beings that maim Wonder Woman and Shazam, but Cap B’s slow thrown weapons are mowing ‘em down! Oh, and Bane with Krptonite knuckle dusters straight up Fatalities one by ripping its head and spine out.

    Bane. Slow-ass Bane.

    King Shark with, and I kid you not, a Kryptonite grill mouth piece, mercs more on screen by biting them than Wondergirl or Steel do. While literally surrounded by Para-Dooms mind you.

    But dang if Aquaman, Wondergirl, and Starfire don’t get gutted real quick.

    Mind you, this is also the movie where apparently The Justice League thought a) it was smart to take Martian Manhunter, who clearly is very effected by fire in this universe, to a planet known to be mostly on fire (Apokalips), b) also brought Mera to the same planet where there is literally no water anywhere for her to manipulate and use, and c) thought Hawkman should also be one of the main fighters going to Apokalips instead of literally anyone else.

    I also love how the teams to attack the ‘Reaper’ Drills are Batwoman, Batgirl, Luke Fox, and Orchid as compared to Superboy, Steel, and Shazam. Kind of feel a bit stacked towards the latter.

    Ok, and instead of doing cool transmutation Magic Zatanna will just fire random magic blasts and get ganged up on.

    And so much more wrong.

    Case in point, Zatanna at 0:50 seconds to about the 1 minute mark. Much better magic.

    spoilers:
    Well, all the non-Superman class heroes and villains were obviously sharing Batman's plot armor and plot power. Which absorbs the strength, durability, and speed from all Superman-class heroes, hence why they got merced so easily by the same army that was getting stomped by said non-Superman class heroes and villains. Superman only avoided getting merced because he was depowered, and thus could get some of that Batman plot armor and plot power while not being depowered by it.
