In the past week, Warner Bros. has released quite a few tidbits of information about the upcoming Justice League film. And, to my surprise, it does look good "“ on paper. However, this wouldn't be the first time that everything seems fine and dandy before the movie arrives. This has happened to some degree with Man of Steel. And it happened extensively with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Regardless, I do have hopes for Justice League. And that is because Warner Bros. seems to have learned its lesson. And even if there is still a long time to wait until the movie arrives, it is good to know a thing or two about it.

Just Justice League

This is the biggest of them all. If it were announced that the first Justice League flick will be split in two parts, this has changed. Warner Bros. doesn't intend to bet too much on Zack Snyder now, after Batman v Superman underperformed.

Thus, even if Deborah Snyder says that this was the plan all along, I believe this is the biggest fallout of them all. If the studio planned from the first, as everybody suspects, for a two-parter, then Zack Snyder's job is even more difficult right now. He needs to condense material for two movies into just one. And, quite frankly, I won't invest in another extended/ultimate director’s cut after Batman v Superman.

Of course, this could still be a two-parter, in the sense that Justice League would have an open ending. But still "“ it is quite unnerving, and it seems to be a sign of desperation.
