"Arrow" was the first to adapt this kind of stories on TV in an episodic format (with the budget constraints and special effects of the medium) during this Peak Superhero era.

If it was green-lit three years ago, maybe they could have waited a bit more between Batman and this one? Oh well, MCU fans don't get tired of watching the same movie twice a year; it might work for Lego too.
Finally, a parody news show about politics on TV!
True, some of them are wise magicians instead.
But "Daredevil" season 1 had the exact same plot as "Arrow" season 1 with the rich villain who wanted to destroy the ugly part of The City to rebuild it.
Misty was great as a character but completely unbelievable as a cop, especially compared to "The Wire" veterans around her.
There really was just one twist in "Luke Cage". And it was stupid, but a few more would have made the second half of the season less boring.
Makes sense, "Daredevil" was also "Arrow".
"Disney is going to buy Marvel and produce 15+ superhero movies, so obviously a Lego movie with Batman will be better than all of them."
Not that surprising. It seems that lately, kids' movies made primarily to sell toys (Lego, MCU…) are graded very generously. Hopefully "Lego Batman" actually deserves these glowing reviews.
This had to be the worst cliffhanger ever in the Arrowverse (except perhaps for shippers?).
I haven't seen it but evidently "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" is well-made in some respects and may in fact be better than "Civil War". But my argument was that after a big award push, "Civil War" got 0 nomination.
Paramount is part of a large corporation; MGM seems to be doing fine at the moment but went bankrupt a few years ago.
You're thinking of "Spider-Man". Jason was rebooted in 2009 so "just" is debatable.
A two-year-old thread? Marvel fanboys are so weird.
Humans endlessly repeat "Sokovia Accords" and sit alone wearing baseball caps in bars when they pretend to be spies. "What the fuck" sums up everything that happens in "Civil War".
The scene was funny, which is a crime for a superhero movie somehow.
Also funny: Marvel fanboys remember more lines of dialogue from BvS than from the entire MCU.
MarkoP implied that everyone dislikes "Man of Steel", BvS and Academy Award nominee "Suicide Squad"; then he got 34+ upvotes because this is the AV Club.
"Logan" has a lot of positive buzz, for whatever it's worth. But I doubt critics will love it anyway: with the Disney premium "Civil War" got better reviews than "Deadpool" - a disgraceful outcome.
