I finally watched Blue Beetle. It was generic but far from horrible. The mid-credits scene gives me hope of one seeing Ted Kord with/without Booster on the big screen. I'd love for a throwback movie with him and the JL International, set in the 80s.

Planning to give it a watch over the holidays, I'm a fan of the lead from Cobra Kai so curious to see how he does here.

So now that this is finally done, what's the DCEU ranking?

My take:
1 - MoS
2 - Wonder Woman
3 - BvS extended edition
4 - Aquaman
5 - JL - Snyder cut
6 - Shazam
7 - Suicide Squad
8 - BvS
9 - JL
10 - Flash
11 - WW1984
12 - Shazam: FotG
13 - Black Adam

Didn't see:
Birds of Prey (well, I started it but didn't finish it)
Blue Beetle
Aquaman &tLK

I'll add there are clearly tiers in the DCEU - a lot of trash at the bottom; MoS through Aquaman are "great to good" in my book. Falls off pretty rapidly from there.

1 - Snyder Cut
2 - Wonder Woman
3 - Shazam
4 - Aquaman
5 - Man of Steel
6 - The Suicide Squad
7 - Blue Beetle
8 - Flash
9 - Black Adam
10 - Shazam 2
11 - BvS (both versions)
12 - BoP
13 - Suicide Squad
14 - WW84
15 - Justice League

Didn't see:
Aquaman 2

The rest of them

Never saw Birds of Prey and won't be seeing Aquaman 2 until it's on Max. The last two that I ranked are among the worst movies I've ever seen.

I forgot to post it in this thread, but when the time comes, for DCU discussion, here's the new thread...

It's always kind of sad when the first movie of the franchise is the best movie of the franchise, and a deeply flawed best movie at that, IMO...

01. Man of Steel
02. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (Extended Cut)
03. Wonder Woman
04. Zack Snyder's Justice League
05. The Suicide Squad (Gunn)
06. Birds of Prey
07. Suicide Squad
08. Justice League
09. The Flash
10. Wonder Woman 1984

Never saw:

- Aquaman (though I've seen huge chunks of it on TV)
- Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
- Black Adam
- Shazam!
- Shazam! Fury of the Gods
