Justice League: 13 Complaints Everyone Will (Probably) Have

11. Lois Lane Gets Nothing To Do (Again)

One of the biggest complaints about Batman v Superman was that Amy Adams' Lois Lane got very little to do, and even less of actual consequence to the central narrative everyone actually cared about. Even in the Ultimate Edition, her investigation was mostly just generic breadcrumb-following, and it's hard to believe much of the same won't be true here.

Though The Flash handily told Bruce Wayne that Lois is the key to...something in BvS, it remains to be seen whether or not this will pay off in Justice League, its planned follow-up or perhaps even Flashpoint.

Furthermore, the marketing has barely featured Lois at all, suggesting she's probably got a relatively minuscule role. While she shouldn't be needlessly shoehorned into the film if there's not an organic part for her, it'd be a shame to waste such a fantastic actress and character, especially if she's left with nothing but filler material.
