Things that don't make Sense
*Wonder Woman deflects like 100 bullets with just her two Bracers of Bullet Deflection? Seems like a bit of a stretch....
That's what she does on comics, so I don't see the issue. I get it wasn't hinted in her movie that much, but I think if she was able to withstand a gatling gun to the face, she had 100 years to become better at it.
Quote:
*The Amazons are just Red shirts sure...but they do seem very weak.
In the comics they are slightly above the peak human (that would make them just a lil stronger/agile than Batman), and really, without WW they tend to suck. The movie also never hinted they were anything like Asgardians.
Quote:
*And why don't the Amazon's have any magic? They just have like 10th century weapons?
*Where is Paradise Island anyway? How do the Amazon's shoot a flaming arrow to a temple in Greece? Was this a magic arrow?
They clearly posses some magical arctifacts (the arrow is obviously magical) but, yeah, they are pretty much stuck with iron age tech, except when the writters suddenly need them high-tech. Like, in one version, the "healing pond" was a purple ray that came out of a very advanced machine. They still used arrows and swords in that setting. Weird, I know :smallconfused:
Quote:
*And why don't the Amazons have some way...any way to contact Diana?
They have bad reception on the island :smalltongue:
Quote:
*Sure is amazing Bruce goes looking for the others right at the moment before the invasion starts...
It's no coincidence. Luthor broadcasted to Steppenwolf to make him come. Bruce and Diana knew that and had at most a few months till the movie started.
Quote:
*So Barry catches a Bat-er-rang and is like ''oh your Batman''?
Who else throws Batarangs? The Penguin?
Quote:
*So Wonder Woman sneaks into the Batcave...somehow? Does she even have sneaky powers?
She is a godess-like entity, with similar stats than Superman, so... why not? She's fast enough to deflect friggin bullets, I don't see why she would have problems disabling the systems before they kick in (and based on her comment, she broke most of them)
Quote:
*Wonder why the humans have no stories about the Boxes of Mom Doom?
They were hidden and kept secret, that much they told in the movie. The war was obviously on prehistoric times, where Atlantis was still above the surface.
Quote:
*Why do he humans bury their box? But the others guard them?
That one is easy: Atlanteans and Amazons are a unified people. The "tribes of men" were never unified, so letting them guard the box would only spur more division and war (or worse: an oppresive almighty empire)
Quote:
*Diana is all like ''the Amazon's can't leave Paradise Island''...but, um, why?
Tradition? :smallconfused: That's actually a good question, given that the gods are all dead. In the comics, the gods banished all Amazons to the island for their good sake, and only WW is allowed to come out. I think WB didn't think this through all too well :smallbiggrin:
Quote:
*Do the Amazon's even bother to alert the Atlantens? Why not? Sure they had a war or something...but still ''End of the World'' is one of those exceptions where you forget about the past...
They can't come out of Paradise Island you silly! Also, reception must be even worse underwater, AFIK.
Quote:
*So the Alanteins can only talk in air bubbles? So, how do they even have a society where they can't talk to each other?
They breath water, so they shouldn't have problems to speak. I think the issue here was: a)The director never resolved how "talking underwater" would actually sound; or b) Mera isn't Atlantean so... shenanigans :smallfrown:
Quote:
*And..well...are the Alanteins also trapped in Atlantis somehow?
They need water to survive AFIK. Like frogs.
Don't ask why
Quote:
*A lot of the Alanteins, like Mera, have on heavy armor...and well, how do they swim in armor?
IIRC, Atlanteans are metahumans, like Asgardians, so they shouldn't have problem with that.
Quote:
*So Barry Allen is a young Kid Flash that just got his powers and lives in a warehouse?
It never striken to me that he was THAT young :smallconfused: He probably is in his early twenties, and he has already some scientific knowledge so... "young Kid Flash" doesn't apply here. He is just new to the super hero thing.
Quote:
*And, um, so, where did Barry Allen get his Super Space Shuttle Suit?
A scientist did it. Probaly himself.
Quote:
*So Cyborg is a bit more 95% robot, with a 5% human face?
No. Why? :smallconfused: The cybernetics he has are able to create an exo-skeleton, that's why Steppenwolf ripped the arm that isn't made of flesh (his left arm, I think) and the leg. He is only missing both legs and a arm, all other apendages of him appear to be ok. He may even still have a weewee!
Quote:
*And how did the Ancient Mom Cube of Doom make a Cyborg again? Would the magic cude not make something more like a Golem?
How does Tony Stark violate every single law of Thermodynamics with a single suit? If he can, why not Cyborg :smalltongue:
Quote:
*Cyborg's floating hand displays are nice....but, can't he 'see' all that data inside his head?
Yes. And Tony stark probably can use a better interface on a 2d screen, but I don't think that would be exciting to watch for more than two frames.
Quote:
*All the Heroes just tell each other their secret identities, but then guess they are all Super Friends, right?
They don't have "secret identities" except for Batman and Diana. The others aren't even heroes yet. Unless you count "pushing people" as heroic, that is. Anyway, 40% of the league already knows the others, so I think it's only fair. Founders always knew who Batman was.
Quote:
*So Batman has a cool..um..''Night Crawler'' Tank/Zoid/Transformer? And Night-crawler does not seem to fit what it looks like...
You are questioning the stylistic decisions of a man who drives a power-tank and calls it the "bat-mobile"
Quote:
*So when Gotham Harbor floods in....how does Aquaman show up right at that second?
A fish told him.
Quote:
*And does Aquaman have Aqua-kenisis?
Nope. If he does, he sucks. Mera was so much better, lol. I think the "fork" just creates powerful barriers. Otherwise I don't know why he bothered asking Mera for it.
Quote:
*So Aquaman sits on the artifact Lasso of Truth? Er, first does Diana just toss this sacred divine artifact around and leave it? And does ''sitting on the rope'' trigger the truth magic? I though you had to be tied up with it?
Don't you dare question the best joke in the whole movie!
Also, no, I don't think there are much requirements for the lasso. It's a mcguffin.
Quote:
*How does the Ancient Mom Cube of Doom bring Superman back to life?
It powered the chamber that created Doomsday (?). Why are you questioning the methods of the mcguffin anyway?
Quote:
*And why does Batman keep Lois in hiding? Maybe it would have been a good idea for her to run right over and be all like ''Clark!".....
Yeah... let's put the human inside that car with the policeman... Oh, wait, Clark just blew it up on the middle of his rampage...
Quote:
*And..really...yes...we know Superman is so powerful he can obliterate the universe with his pinky toe...so why have the silly hero fight?
BECAUSE HE IS BA--- I don't know. Fan service? They still keep doing it in the comics, so I don't think they learned better yet.
Quote:
*And do they really just leave the Ancient Mom Cube of Doom unguarded?
Well, there was this urgent issue about stopping the kryptonian.
Yeah, that was silly, but really, these are the kind of silliness every superhero movie always has. We should be used to it by now.
Quote:
*It sure takes a long time for the Triple Mom Cubes of Doom to...um, not destroy the world........It sure would have been nice to hear say...Magic Carpet Ride...as Steppenwolf turned on the cubes (or born to be wild when he killed the amazons...or hippo stomp when he killed the alanteins).
It was consistent to the flashback. That doesn't make Steppenwolf any less stupid but hey, Loki commited the same mistake over and over...
Quote:
*Guess it was a good thing Batman made a Bat Troop Transport Quinjet?
The only thing that didn't make sense is why they didn't show it up earlier and did more things with it.
Quote:
*And Cyborg reprograms the Bat Quinjet to fly faster?
It's a thing Cyborg does after taking his coffe. Don't ask. It's DC. It just works like that.
Quote:
*Good thing Superman shows up at the end...as he saves the day..sigh.
Don't ask. It's DC. It just works like that.
Quote:
*And, as the Modern Superman is on the Other Side, he only stands for Truth and Justice...but not the American Way
He already stopped being American once because of luthor, so, duh. He is as much "American" as Goku is "Japanese" by now.
Quote:
*And yet again..in yet another movie...the evil bad guy army just goes 'poof'' at the end.....why?
Don't ask. It's DC. It just works like that. Don't ask. It's a super hero story. It just works like that.
Quote:
*So the Justice League will be headquartered in Wayne Manor? So no Space Station?
It's the
Hall of Justice. I don't know where it's located, maybe it IS the Manor, maybe it's just some abandoned palace on
Manhattan Central-Metro-Gotha-Ville City
