12 Great Moments In Mediocre Comic Book Movies

4. Superman Fights The Team In Justice League

What should have been DC's equivalent to Avengers Assemble could have been an epic entry in the DCEU. Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, and Cyborg all appearing together in live action, how did this wind up as disappointing as it was? There are so many things you can blame the failure on.

The complete of lack character building before the movie, with only two characters previously appearing on screen in anything more than a cameo, the ridiculous interference from Warner Bros., and the polar opposite visions of the movie's two directors all contributed to a poor outing.

There was one scene in the movie however, that made you forget about the mess the movie ultimately was. We all knew Superman was going to come back, so there was no real surprise, but his fight with the rest of the Justice League was a lot of fun.

Squaring up against four of his future teammates, Kal-El handily dealt with them all, even matching Barry Allen for speed. Is it a bit silly? Yes, especially Ezra Miller's shocked face as he should be speeding straight past Superman, but this was a brief respite from the rest of the dreary movie that maybe could have used a bit more silly.
