PART 1 of 4 - "MEN OF STALL"

With the DC Extended Universe (aka "The DCEU," aka "The SnyderVerse") about to be put out of its misery by the continuum-reboot shennanigans of "THE FLASH;" I begin my look back through (almost!) every review, video essay, etc I published on the subject in chronological order from the release of "MAN OF STEEL" in 2013 to the total collapse of Warner Bros as a studio in the ongoing present. It's The story of Hollywood and the art of mainstream moviemaking at an inflection point: Sprawling, hard to believe but for the fact that we all watched it happen saga - at once comical yet infuriating and deeply sad - of how hubris, greed, mismanagement, misunderstanding, chasing trends while failing to grasp them and the demonic influence of the Sunk Cost Fallacy turned a “sure thing” into a decade-long garbage fire that eventually burned down one of the last great Movie Studios.

Oh, man, I won't be able to watch this until maybe next week!

And this part was 2.5 hours. Are they all this long?

it's important to preserve this story, not just from the objective, long view of it, but the contemporaneous view. i keep getting on feeds weird posts by Synderians saying how he "made Superman relevant". (eye rolling emoticon) malarkey.

I recently finished the final chapter of MARTHABOX. I'm sorry you had to relive this dumpster fire. I look at Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Those were movies made with love. They put art before commerce. They had talented people who believed in these characters. This is what the DCEU should've been. Not a waste of time, money, and effort. As for its "fan base", the best way to fix those people is either solitary confinement or a full-frontal lobotomy. Maybe toss in chemical castration, just in case.
