Justice League was follow up to the most disappointing movie, so I wouldn't call it a disappointment.
Fantastic Four 2015 should count as a disappointment, I was hoping for more from the director of Chronicle.
Does it share anything with the comic book character outside her costumed name? And maybe cat ears? Not enough stuff to make it feel disappointing.
TRUTH, JUSTICE, HOPE
That is, the heritage of the Kryptonian Warrior: Kal-El, son of Jor-El
You like Gameboy and NDS? - My channel
Looks like I'll have to move past gameplay footage
Catwoman was a disappointment in that Michelle Pfeiffer's version of Catwoman was so beloved that that was the point of making a Catwoman stand alone movie in the first place.
Then not only did they ditch Selina Kyle in favor of some made up woman, the character in the movie had no resemblance at all to the Catwoman in Batman Returns. Plus the costume was
terrible and sexually exploitative. Even if the movie had been a well made movie it still would have been a disappointment. That it was total trash just made it even more disappointing.
I really hope the Fantastic Four listed is the 2015 movie.
Also Daredevil shouldn't be on the list. Especially since the director's cut was an improvement. If that had been the version that was originally released, I don't think it would have gotten as much flak as it did.
I also loved that it got deeply into the character. I remember coming out of the theater and a woman behind me saying to someone that she tried and tried to like Banner but she just couldn't warm up to him. Yes, because he's a shy introvert with major issues like, you know, Bruce Banner. He's not supposed to be the life of the party that you find to be open and accessible.
Power with Girl is better.
Switch Justice League and BvS. JL was a disappointment but it became so on the heels of what BvS failed horribly to deliver.
"They can be a great people Kal-El, they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you. My only son." - Jor-El
Nothing tops JUSTICE LEAGUE for me. That's such a bad movie, on every single level.
BATMAN V. SUPERMAN is bad too, but it's fascinatingly bad. There are a lot of good ideas in it...that go nowhere.
I haven't seen a lot of the Marvel flicks, and Civil War and Winter Solider are the only 2 that I really like.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine was terrible, it's funny how much I forgot all about that since LOGAN was such a fantastic flick.

In the 00s, if you were to even mention the possibility of an Aquaman movie not only being better received, but also making more than a movie starring Batman and Superman, people would have laughed at you.
