10. They Don't Have A Stable "Master" Of Their Universe
When Man of Steel was taking center stage, rudimentary plans for Justice League seemed to be in the air. With that came the whispers that led to the official announcement Zack Snyder would most likely be the director of that project as well, provided the first film did well enough. Well Man of Steel performed well enough that Snyder was announced as director of... Man of Steel 2. Once again Justice League had eluded us, despite the sudden Batman vs. Superman and Friends overhaul Man of Steel 2 has undergone over a quick series of events. The reasoning for that is simple: Zack Snyder can draw a mediocre crowd, at best. His films bring in decent amounts of people, but he's not as big as he once was. Not to mention, when he's given the reins to create something of his own, he ends up making something like Sucker Punch. It looks like DC is still calling the shots, and not giving Snyder the full Whedon treatment. Marvel knows that Joss Whedon is a proven talent who can bring the right level of effort to A-list material, whereas DC is latching onto the first director that isn't named Christopher Nolan to make a movie the moviegoing public didn't totally hate. That's not stability, that's desperation.
