As we all know, when Zack Snyder stepped down from Justice League, after the tragic death of his daughter, Joss Whedon was called in to complete the film. After months of complicated reshoots and rewrites, the film finally releases tomorrow. Now, reviews are out and both Snyder and Whedon have come under scrutiny by film critics. However, fans are most upset that Whedon has taken to liking negative tweets about the film on Twitter.
Both DC and Marvel fans are extremely passionate about their comic book films (ask James Gunn). It seems both parties can argue the positives and negatives of both franchises for hours on end.
Whedon, who originally helped helm the Marvel franchise by directing Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron, seemed the perfect choice to step in to help guide DC’s Justice League towards the same critical praise. However, things haven’t gone according to plan. While Rotten Tomatoes has yet to reveal its score rating, many publications have posted negative reviews and comments about the film. Sadly, it seems Whedon has liked a few of them.
DC fans are raging on Twitter and have resorted to dubbing the director “Judas Whedon”.
“You are absolutely repulsive. How dare you even like this tweet?” one fan said.
Whether or not the likes are intentional remains a mystery. It’s possible that Joss Whedon is just liking the negative remarks as a joke and that he doesn’t actually endorse the statements. Regardless, he has been very quiet about Justice League. Producer Charles Roven later said that Whedon worked on “15, 20%” of the finished movie. Could it be that he actually doesn’t like the final result himself?
Hey @joss. It’s one thing to not promote a film you completed. But to have the lack of decency & the unmitigated gall to like tweets trashing a film that YOU took over for Zack in his time of mourning is disgusting. If you don’t like it, then we all rather have you simply shut up

Some thoughts: Justice League is a great movie, but all the "bad" things in it are clearly the work and direction of @joss.
Also, his "like" to the tweet trashing Steppenwolf is disgusting.@wbpictures do not make that Batgirl movie.

Fuck you @joss. I wish Gal Gadot would've drop-kicked your ass during the reshoots, you backstabber.

.@joss You are absolutely repulsive. How dare you even like this tweet?
Your fingerprints are all over this film & you have yet to voice out any kind of support for it. You are despicable & you have singlehandedly ruined @ZackSnyder’s #JusticeLeague. pic.twitter.com/M5oPWp6N8y

Saw it last night. Ignore the critics, it’s great fun.
People take the wrong things too seriously these days, and turn a blind eye to things that they SHOULD be upset about. It’s just a movie, and people are losing their minds over whether it’s great or horrible, and whose fault it is or isn’t.
SUPERMAN SAVES THE DAY
It was very good. Dark and some funny bits. 100x better the Bats vs Sups!
Saw it Thursday night with my son. It was good not great but I enjoyed the hell outta this movie. Sure it had issues like any movie but still a fun ride imho. It’s certainly not the worst modern Comic book movie **cough…Wolverine Origins…cough** With the tonal shift I think from this point DCEU has been course corrected. I remain hopeful. I’m a huge JLA fan and to see these characters on screen in a decent film is a good start.
I went Friday to see it. Being a dick I laughed at the people with Superman and batman stuff on. THEN realised when i got home I was wearing my superman boxers.
If I were going to waste my money on this, I’d probably show up wearing my “Make Mine Marvel” t-shirt
Wouldn’t be a waste of money to watch a film you’d enjoy.
Which is funny because whedon’s changes are the better elements in the movie.
But it’s clear that this was a Zack Snyder film that was edited into a Josh Whedon movie.
Also the CGI upper lip is hilariously noticeable
Just came home from seeing this with my kid. She loved it and that all that matters to me. Wore her Flash hoodie and hat had a soda and ate popcorn the way its supposed to be.
I’m going with my youngest daughter and my wife tonight. You win Jim!
Bradmin
Honestly I’m not watching Affleck as Batman, when he quits I’ll watch again.
Clooney isn’t coming back at some point you’ll have to accept it
But apparently they will consider putting 2/3 of Val Kilmer to fill the suit
I’d rather watch Kilmer, Clooney is a shit actor too.
What if this guy deliberately ruined the franchise and runs back to Marvel after? Maybe it was Disney’s plan all along
Acknowledging what “Rotten Tomatoes” said bout the movie after being bought by Disney, all the “desperate” propaganda and the “bad shit” that has being reviewing… to me , this was BEYOND better that any Marvel movie so far…in fact, was better that Wonder Woman. The fact that Whedon took place after Snyder, made this movie what i’ve being expecting since ´89. It has Snyder written all over the place, the flashes , the stunts, the action, the background, but when it comes to jokes and show what’s all about Whedon made an excelent job.
Like i said, to me,this is the best SuperHeroe movie by far till this day.
Please share whatever drugs you’re on. You’re clearly on some powerful shit. Being as unbiased as I can possibly be, Justice League was good, but it was spectacularly above average. Cyborg and Steppenwolf were CGI clay, the Motherboxes functioned nothing like they do in the comics and were just “this can do anything I want” wish macguffins. The dialogue was painful at times. I didn’t hate it, but it definitely was only good, not great and definitely not “beyond better” than any Marvel movie so far.
Fuck the source material. Film was awesome.
“Fuck the source material”. That’s a good thing to say making a comic-book movie. That’s just why Marvel is ahead!
Ragnarok was based on the source material? It was a rape of the source material .but all the media call that garbage a masterpiece.
Better than Justice League(with the muppet Superman and Kid Flash). The box office has spoken.
yo yo yo, everybody calm down. i said “TO ME” this is better than the Marvel things that come out so far. there’s no need for violence and crappy talk.
The Superman pic from top it’s a Meme. Ragnarok indeed fucked up every source material but still it’s a great movie.
Truth be told, the one that didn’t like was that poor Flash.
Hahaha.. High.
But it was bad…..
I noticed both Whedon’s and Snyder’s direction (style) in the film and both elements are what is now the film Justice League, a film I happen to have enjoyed.
Not the best, not the worst, I blame the studio for a too short run time and overall a good sequel to BVS.
My biggest complaint is how they didn’t take full advantage of a certain character’s situation and exploit it fully, a lost opportunity to flesh out a larger spectrum for the character.
The film could have been easily 3 hours
Nobody wants to sit in a theatre seat for 3 hours with no intermission.
People who tell Joss Whedon he has to shut up need to shut up themselves. He’s entitled to his opinion.
Spiderman steals Wonder Woman’s shield.
Joss is one of the few whose opinions are truly needed – if the directors can’t be allowed to acknowledge flaws in their creations, how will movies improve?
Clark Kent is a reporter for the Daily Planet.
Matt Sullivan Sean CW Korsgaard
I thought it was awesome.
And funny.
And that part where they all……
Thor dies.
The SJWs went on a jihad accusing Whedon of being a rape fetshist because of some of his stories. I guess they were right because he just RAPED MY HOPES FOR THIS MOVIE!
It’s actually very good. No hope lost.
Cyborg was a good character I’m surprised he died in the first movie….
Look people trying to get attention yay
Couldn’t pay Darkseid enough to show up, sent Steppenwolf because he works for bus fare.
Oh ffs. Joss is entitled to his own goddamn opinions.
Yeah, he is a former Avengers Director that says it all.
this is a modern retelling of a wizard of oz
Superman comes back to life and the League saves the world,there’s nothing to spoil.
Cyborg’s computer systems run off of Windows 98
Spoiler- It’s a rental, just like everything else that has come out in the last decade.
The cgi no-beard was terrible
Spoiler….
The movie sucks
Justice League wins and Superman comes back to life.
How dare you spoil the inevitable premise!
Cause I’m a jerk! :D
According to the OP you just a dick.
Then I’m a dick! Yay!
This is actually acceptable because of the obvious inevitability.
Bradmin
No! My ‘dick-dom’ is removed!
Bruce Wayne is Batman.
Oh shit, really?

Batman is Bruce Wayne.
Holy frack!! ?? #ded

Or how about… he likes constructive criticism? I know, I know… in this day and age, nobody can criticize anybody or anything, but you know what? Criticism when done in a constructive manner CAN actually help someone improve their product. I’d like to think that is the case here, but then, I’m not Joss, so who knows… or freakin’ cares.
Immature
Don’t sink to their level
The butthurt is fierce
What a troll. Swinging his baby hands in the air for any bit of attention.
Bit of a dick move on his part, but quite an overreaction from people.
Fuck Whedon
I honestly don’t like Whedon’s input in the movie :( It’s not stupid fanboy hate, but the contrast with Snyder’s style is just too big and annoying sometimes :(
Brandon Spence
What a douche
I think the smear campaign is back

movie critics mean nothing. I watched the movie and it was awesome.
Bloody well done. The critics opinions means nothing!
If you would consider everything I said up until now with understanding, you’ll know the true context of why I have mentioned Rotten Tomatoes’ rating of the JL.
Thats how you start a war
Whedon is a legend. Zack doesn’t have his acclaim with this gendre unfortunately.
Whedon, this guy is awesome! Who wasn’t captivated with Season 5 of Angel.
But why would he go “there” by liking something he should not have failing to comprehend the consequences of his actions.
Tensions are already running high and he just added fuel to the fire.
DC shouldn’t have let Zack do Justice League after what he did with BVS
Nah, visually Snyder’s work is amazing but after the harsh criticism he received for BvS, maybe, just maybe he would have gotten the chance to fix what he have broken and it make up with JL but he didn’t get the chance to do so completely.

We’ll never know. Maybe the directors cut will be better. I hear they cut out 50min for the cinema.

Yes! After all this BS, this is exactly what I thinking about. ?
And this is what we can expect from Snyder’s work, there’s always a Director’s Cut, Extended Cut or Ultimate Cut we can look forward to after we have watched it on the big screen.

Honestly I’m a big DC fan and I hate how Marvels movies are so much better than theirs. They make it look as though Captain America will hand Batman’s butt to him. That’s not right. I think Marvel just started their cinematic universe better.

Agreed. Not sure why they can’t just use the writers of the animated movies.

Yes! The MCU is better put together but I’m always left dissatisfied with their movies and the DCEU have came so late to the party and it was not even fashionably.
These Marvel and DC bastards are just milking us with every single crud they release and clearly they are not respecting the source material to build properly on it.
DC’s Animations just sets the standard of what these movies could have been.

So Disney’s in works to buy the rights to the X-Men so the Scarlet Witch can become a mutant and the rest of them intrigrated into the universe.
And maybe we can also see Deadpool in the MCU in the near future. Wouldn’t it be cool to see him and Nick Fury together in the same film? ?

Think they gearing up to reboot the MCU bro. The Infinity war will end it. They’ll probably start again with all heroes available.

Thank you for sharing this.
It was actually pretty good for me, especially that time when Batman wanted to resurrect Superman the same way Lex did with Zod and everyone especially Wonder Woman went along with the plan reluctantly. Bats felt like that kid every friend has who convinces them all to invest money on networking, only it doesn’t end so well for the rest but in the end, they were still super friends & nothing can change that despite whatever shit they give each other.
Who saw this coming?
Me! ?
There is a video out there of Grace Randolph saying she has a trusted source that claims he was a persona not grata among the cast (which could explain why NO ONE talks about him and always defend Zack very strongly) and also how all the sexual WW jokes were written and decided by him.
Who know if its true or not, but hey there is a certain “sexual” little joke in JL that is LITERALLY the same in Age of Ultron but with Black Widow. Just saying.
These rotten MTFers! Why is it that every single time some controversial sh-t just conveniently seems to happen before the DC film is released pissing us all off on the grandest scale even before we get a chance to experience it for ourselves?
These rotten bastards.

No, Sa-Bo-Tage! They deliberately go out of their way to try to ruin each and every single fan’s experience to simply go and watch a highly anticipated fan boy and girl dream with their negative criticism and opinions.
Of course, they easily influence these weak of minds slideliners with their negativety manipulating their every thought and emotions of others, trying to take away our satisfaction of enjoying what seems to be a real good movie.
Oh, I will definitely take some friends and family with me when I go and experience it all for myself in IMAX 3D!
