(Warning: This rant contains swearing)
Hey, this is Blondlionezel aka Nick, ranting about something new! If you couldn't already guess, this is about DC and their cinematic universe problems.
Following Marvel's success with a Cinematic Universe, DC finally decided to copy what Marvel is doing. However, instead of making the movies fun and serious at the same time (making it a balanced movie), DC decided that "Dark, Gritty, and Realistic" was the way to go.
Are you f*****g kidding me?! It made sense with the Dark Knight Trilogy (Which is no longer canon BTW), since Batman is a (mostly) realistic character. But characters like Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Shazam, and Cyborg aren't "realistic" or "gritty" in the slightest!
Another HUGE problem is Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice. Since Man of Steel made a lot of money (I don't know how, that movie was a piece of s**t), but it wasn't liked at all by critics. So DC decided to put Batman in the next movie, making Superman vs Batman. Instead of trying something new, they just decided to throw in Batman, which doesn't work for the conflict for two reasons:
#1 - Superman doesn't know Batman, vice versa
#2 - Batman has no reason to fight Superman, vice versa
Also, do you know who else is going to be in the Batman vs Superman movie? Wonder Woman, Cyborg, and Aquaman. Seriously?! Not only are you juggling five heroes, but we're also dealing with Lex Luthor, (Rumored) Doomsday, and (Rumored) Riddler. That's eight characters all together! And yes, a big cast can work, but it has to be a big even, i.e. Marvel's Civil War.
Well, I'm Blondlionezel, and this was a rant.

Pinkamena: (winds up in a dark cave, gloating to herself about never having been caught).
Unfortunately for her, Shining Armor, wanting revenge for poor Twilight, and all the other victims (but mostly Twilight), followed her.
Without warning, Shining Armor began beating the living crap out of her.
Shining Armor: (suddenly stops after punching her face for a full 20 minutes) Wait! Wait! One more punch will kill you!.. And I won't kill you.
Pinkamena: (nearly dead but somehow still smiling) That somehow means I win!.. I kill.. Go to jail.. Break out.. Kill again!.. Instand revers-
Shining Armor: (annoyed) yes, yes. It's an endless cycle.. But I sore to let the court do their work.. What to do.. (thinking) Hmmmmmm.
To be containued
I just want to end this story so it can be out of the way, and
I can stop overbooking myself.
The next day Trixie knocked on Rarity's door.
Trixie: Well. I did it. I killed them.
Rarity: Oh.. Well. This is awkward... I. kinda.. Changed my mind, and was about to call it off.
Trixie: Oh... I'm still getting paid though right.
Rarity: (sighs) Fine.. (gives her the amount of money she promised too).
Trixie: Thank you. (takes the money). Say. You have any beer?
Rarity: No. Saten came and took the last one.
Trixie: (excitedly) Saten's still in town?
Rarity: I guess.,
Trixie: Great.. You know where he might be.. Because I am totally NOT gonna stalk him.
Rarity: (shrugs unsurely)
THE END
Ending theme.
