Coherent plot
The biggest problem with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice wasn’t the tone; wasn’t the seriousness (lack of smiles, if you will); it wasn’t even the reimagining of Batman and Superman. It was, instead, the plot, which had holes as big as the entire budget in it.
And that is because Zack Snyder (and Warner Bros.) has condensed material worth three or more movies into a single flick. Why wasn’t just plain Batman v Superman followed by another movie called Dawn of Justice? Why was Death of Superman squeezed into the final act of the movie? What was the entire deal with the Knightmare and the Flash from the future?
While Justice League needs to be a part of the DCEU and tease the future, it should also be a self-contained movie. And, more importantly, it should have all of its problems solved and all of its plot-holes filled in the theatrical cut. I don’t believe that the fans will flock to buy another ultimate cut from Zack Snyder. Even if Wonder Woman, the movie coming out before Justice League, is a hit and restores the faith of the fans in the DCEU, I don’t think an Ultimate Cut of Justice League will find too many buyers.
