3. They Want to Mix it Up
"We think movies are fairly boring and predictable. We want to screw with audiences' expectations." - Andy Wachowski.
And hes right, especially in the comic book movie genre. Often, theyre boring, because theyre ultimately predictable and rely too heavily on CGI (case in point: Green Lantern, which really was a wasted opportunity to bring mainstream recognition to a superb comic book character). In fact, this willingness to defy expectation is invariably what turned many off to the Matrix sequels. But whether you liked them or not, you cant deny that they at least attempted to mix it up from the norm. In my eyes, a Justice League movie cant just be bastardised Avengers, in an attempt to mop up any remaining interest in a Superhero ensemble piece. It has to be fresh, original, subversive even. Thats just one of the reasons Im championing the corner of the Wachowskis.
