Her legendary armor also broke in WW1984 lol.

@@jcie3424 Doesn't count

@@KRYMauL I mean if steppenwolf destroys Diana's axe then it'll be the third time Something legendary breaks and I find that funny that Legendary stuffs in the Amazonian armory are nothing but normal equipments with exaggerated stories that she doesn't really need but the story builds up the hype around it anyway.

That's what you get for trying to fight with antiques.

Why not just have Diana break her bracelets then? In the comics, when her bracelets are destroyed, she's even more powerful than ever.

Best comment by far

And imagine if that other character could also be intangible against a villain that just has strength and physical attacks, wouldn't that be something very useful in an apocalyptic level threat?

To be fair, nobody knew about Martian Manhunter and he made sure of that. To be equally fair, Batman is the world's greatest detective.

@@porkchopsensei2742 Pretty sure Martian Manhunter knew about Martian Manhunter. And, you know, telepath, so its not like they would be able to keep Steppenwolf a secret from him.

@@karlocortes3342 If only!

Yes, this is exactly what I want to see.

Throw in some Adam west dialogue and it's golden. Maybe have Bruce's voice synthesizer get damaged in a fight beforehand so you hear a real human voice. Steppenwolf is expecting brutality, but a display of self control and bravado might be enough to distract steppenwolf long enough for something momentous to happen.

Not every story with the villain winning a big battle is directly tied to Infinity War.......

@@Joecbg100 and it’s not like Steppenwolf is winning at the end of the movie.

But he does win pretty much every battle, basically. And even with Superman Steppenwolf won. Until Barry decided to Uno reverse it, hehe.

Endgame in this context is Injustice/World's End because Stephenwolfe is just a General and not Darkseid.

Yeah, it's like the MCU actually had a plan and WB, even Sydner was making this up as they went and tried to play catch up...

So he’s E.T.? Our antagonist ladies and gents.

zuko also wanted to go home

@@K3end0 no, its just not YOUR cut of Justice League lol

@@K3end0 what? How is that a boring character? He has no need to fight. He has a goal and he has already done it. Get the motherbox. Why would he waste time fighting? What you are saying sounds ridiculous.

@@parkeranimations3671 the film establishes that Steppenwolf isn't doing this because he really wants to but because of his debt. Heck, the fights kinda reflect that: - He had the opportunity to maybe deal a fatal blow to Arthur but chose to go after the Motherbox - He didn't fight the team in the tunnel or Star Labs cause the Motherbox called to him and he retrieved it respectively

'... they did NOT need Superman to beat Steppenwolf' No, they didn't and a victory over Steppenwolf without Superman would have made the movie better in my book. As soon as Superman step in, Steppenwolf was history and it was very disappointing. The villain in the movie must be a close match for Superman, otherwise what's the point.

Yeah Supes should not have stomped

@@Age_of_Apocalypse umm they did need Superman. Diana is the only person who can fight Steppenwolf head on

I agree. And I think it would have been better story wise if the justice league beat steppenwolf without superman but with their strength in unity

@@gohanson27 The Justice League is supposed to be a team and the beat the bad guys with teamwork; the fight between Superman and Steppenwolf was absolutely not satisfactory because this villain was nowhere to be a match for the man of steel.

Just finished watching your video before this one. Great work, as always! Keep it up, Scott! (Even if it’s a while before you make another video.)

So happy you’re uploading again!! I watched you back when you had that fauxhawk

Some one send NerdSync's video to zack snyder please!

And both y’all rewrites together made the movie better in my own mind (for me personally, these rewrites are canon).

Actually I think he conquered 100,000 going by his mention

I still think they needed to show us his capabilities before making him out to be a huge threat. Them telling us the worlds he conquered isn’t enough to make us feel like he’s some larger than life character. The only thing that this version has to offer is how pathetic & sad he is. He’s formidable, and scary in design, but once Superman enters he doesn’t even put up a decent fight.

@@trentonsmith4869 Darkseid is the threat 🙄

@@nemya9586 Talking bout the main villain dude, Darkseid is just the lingering threat that is to come.

@@trentonsmith4869 and Steppenwolf came to make a "lingering" threat an apparent one. He didn't come to earth on his own accord.

😆😆😆😆

Yes lol

Look at little Steppenwolf jr. Gonna cry?

"Nobody calls Steppenwolf chicken! NOBODY!"

Darkseid: "bring me the Anti-life equation... Unless you're a chicken"

STEPPENWOLF! Read my fax! ::YOU’RE:: ::FIRED::

I actually felt it demonstrated how serious a threat he was that he was so objective focused, not a villain you can trick into monologing or challenge to a fight to the death just as his plans about to come to fruition.

Agree. We opened with Steppenwolf slaughtering Amazons. Who were not portrayed as weak, they were actually holding their own... for a minute. Steppenwolf acted in a very realistic fashion as a general on a mission, steadfast in its completion, someone who looked like he has done this many times before and wasn’t going to waste his time. We also have Diana literally saying...”I’ve never seen anyone as strong as him...” It sort of sets up the strength of Superman... which we know was supposed to foreshadow Darkseid’s strength. Up until Darkseid would eventually show up, no one was stronger than Superman. Not even the combination of Arther and Diana. Having said all that... the axe thing is a great idea.

Oh it's too much!

They were going to. A movie called the New Gods was in development but ultimately got canceled because WB doesn't want this universe to continue. I think the villains were fine because the three act structure of the JL movies tie directly jnto each other. You can save those other villains for post Flashpoint movies.

​@@kmshana94 The new gods movie was gonna happen after the JL movie, after they had already establish Apokolips and Darkseid in the JL movie, which is terrible idea by shared movie universe build up since, if the League defeated Apokolips forces in the first movie there's no way to top that in the sequel. They would be ending their franchise before even begins. It would be the equivalent of making the first avengers movie with Thanos already as the main villain. It's simple escalation: You start simple then you move to bigger things.

@@alexandrefrauches132 who's to say it wouldn't have been escalation. A new gods movie focusing on the entirety of 4th world seems alot more than 7 metas fighting Darkseid's servant Also escalation may not always be better. Winter Soldier was better than Avengers 1 in my opinion. I think you can have a movie that hints at a larger threat while another movie explains the larger threat that way the last movie can just tell a story without it having to be an origin story and a final story.

I'd be so down for an Amazo or Dr. Ivo first battle, or the Royal Club Gang working with T O Morrow's robots and maybe get a hint at Red Tornado. Those classic ones.

@@kmshana94 I meant escalation in the sense of the level of the threat. I agree that Winter soldier is a better movie than Avengers 1 however, it works because the villains are is in the level of Captain America and it's allies. If it was a movie with the Avengers, it wouldn't be a challenge for the heroes compare to Loki and the Chitauris, Ultron or even Thanos. In the case of the League, if they defeat Apokolips forces in the first movie, there no way other villain can shine as threat because the heroes already defeated the bigger villains, taking away the sense that the characters are evolving and delaing with new challenges than before.

I don't really want to defend this movie, but that room was meant to be one big trap.

@@lofr8982 With an opening in the ceiling. The trap was to shut the front door and have the whole thing fall into the ocean. Except the bad guys they were protecting it from could 1) teleport and 2) fly.

@@misterdarwin And yet they didn't teleport outside of it. They were being hold by the amazons, specially Steppenwolf. Yet they survived the fight, the fall and managed to get out.

@@misterdarwin well, if the enemies could teleport and fly, then it doesnt really matter where they keep it. might as well build a giant trap around it. whether there is an opening in the ceiling is irrelevant.

@@amazo88 Get rid of the hole and the trap works better for flying things. All they did was trap their own people inside and send them to die over a cliff.

Agree. They should had left Superman alive in the end of BvS, allowing him to have the more scenes with the other members of the league, interacting with them and developing his dynamic with the team.

That’s one of the biggest sins of the whole movie. That should be the third Superman movie AT LEAST.

@@nickasaro8789 they used the death of Superman as a catalyst for the JL forming and Steppenwolf appearing on Earth. In Snyder's an the death of Superman was not going to be a factor in the later movies. He needed Superman to be away for most of JL so that Bruce could get the team together. The DoS was just a means to an end

A classic 👌 Also, nice formatting.

Lol where that from?😁

@@moygame159 The Princess Bride. Its fantastic! I highly recommend.

...yes.

This is also true.

Take flash out what happens?

What about Epic or Mythic.

@@Fenris30 He can't really do either. He tries way too hard for them and consequently falls way short.

Its planned in JL2 actually. But its darkseid who controls him

@@greengarden7557 If there’s a JL2 😕 Also, the direction Zack was going for felt a bit more like Injustice to me

@@JamesLawner well the set up is sort of like injustice it's just instead of turning evil after Lois's death his spirit is weakened and that enables Darkseid to take over his mind without too much resistance

Yh the thing is if diana and aquaman had a tough time dealing with Stephen wolf yet superman dealt with him with ease the we wouldn't be of any use in a fight again darkseid it would just be a solo between shoes and darkseid

@@weshal5732 True.

It only took multiple movies to finally take a risk lol.

Fun Fact: Ares and Darkseid we’re going to team up in the original New Gods script and take down the old gods. Although it was scrapped because Warner didn’t want anything connecting to ZSJL universe

He just beats him again and gain, so blunt and boring.

He beats him and still gets help of WW and Aquaman. And even then Steppenwolf wins. Becuase he wasn't the only challenge but to stop the Unity.

@@Joecbg100 He destroyed his axe with freeze breath, kicks him, uses his heat vision, punches him again, then WW and Aquaman uise their "ultimates" too and after three more punches he uses his lasers to destroy his armor and cuts one of his horns off. How is that even boring, lol?

He has been who knows how long on Earth and trying to not be noticed. And for what it seems not even knowing about the invasion. Until the end.

@@Vesohag Yeah my mans Martian Manhunter really come at the end like “aye bruh I got u next time.” Like bruh the world almost ended twice where tf were you lol.

@@Atlantafan21 it actually shows that not everyone who has power to be one, wants to be a hero, i know i never will. Some people just want to blend in because it doesn't matter how many wars you try to stop, how many thiefs you catch. There will always be more and humans would have stopped those criminals without your help too and also you'll create your own problems with your divine intervention, there is a joker because there is batman, same goes for luthor and superman. But in the end he says that he has realised he has a stake in this world so he'll try to help the team maybe something happened that changed his mind idk.

@@Atlantafan21 He even says that he has realised he has a stake in the world, that he can't hide no longer since there is a huge threat coming. Implies he was always trying to remain hidden but now it is obvious he has to be in the front line with the rest of the heroes of Earth. If anything, he wasn't even gonna be in that scene but Green Lantern.

@@Vesohag Yeah Ik Snyder wanted Lantern to be in that final scene. But Manhunter kinda breaks the move imo considering the fact he is just about as powerful as Superman but doesn’t participate, whether he’s trying to hide or not. In the one scene he was supposed to be in, I don’t believe he mentions trying to hide but instead just says the world needs Lois, even though the world needs him not Lois lol. I like Manhunter a lot, but the movie could have done without him and it would have been for the better imo.

That's kinda like what they did in Justice League War but that Darkseid behaved nothing like Darkseid and was defeated kinda meh. Specially to be the first time the team gets together. I feel it's more believable that is Steppenwolf (which even won and killed everyone except the Flash).

Pretty much. Steppenwolf wants to go home. He's on a schedule to keep. Conquering 100,000 worlds to pay for a debt is not easy. Earth is just another planet on his list of planets to conquer.

He killed heimdall, Loki too, knocked out hulk and beat thor first five minutes 🤦🏾‍♂️

he still teleported away tho🤣🤣🤣 Im just saying. Steppenwolf slaughtered hordes of Amazons and atlanteans. He just went away because he had like 50k worlds to do so. I'm pointing out the loophole in this logic

@@koushikraja331 I get what you're saying, neither came with intentions set on beating every soul individual... but Thanos actually had dubs in multiple encounters before even getting every stone. Darkseid shouldn't have lost that first fight, it's Darkseid!!! And wolf felt like adorable in some scenes lol

@@koushikraja331 Yeah but thanos beat the hulk so bad he was afraid to come out of banner. He killed gods, not just amazons and he eventually gets multiple infinity stones which had been built up and showed off for 20 movies at that point so we know he is dangerous. AND there is a point in that movie where he literally fights multiple avengers and guardians and Strange has to bribe him with the time stone.

@@champcpr Darkseid lost just like Sauron lost in his introduction, by his fingers been chopped off... That didn't take away the fact that he was the main villain or how powerful he was. Darkseid didn't have the Omega effect and was fighting against three literal gods and a Green Lantern.

I disagree with Nando on that one. If I was handling this, I would have preferred it if Superman died against Darkseid, not his general.

They revived him because the motherboxes feared him. And because to just keep fighting like this, without Superman, could be just a way to buy some time but not a bullet proof way to defeat the invasion.

He's running low on Hephaestus juice.

Fisher would have as much an issue with that. I think only something like another black guy like John Stewart in the team would have made him less critical of all race issues.
