Zeus and the history of the Mother Boxes

As expected with a Zack Snyder flick, Justice League will feature flashbacks. Is this a good thing? I don't know. It worked for me in Watchmen and almost worked in Batman v Superman.

According to producer Deborah Snyder, the flashbacks will concern the history of the Mother Boxes. And it’s necessary to show them so viewers understand what they are and where they come from. Zeus will appear in these flashbacks, as well as Darkseid and Apokolips (obviously).

And this is awesome, since it will provide a solid foundation for the DCEU to be built on. However, Zack Snyder did that in Man of Steel, and it was just too much (the Krypton sequence).

This is very important, since we will also get a sense of what Wonder Woman actually is. We may find out more in advance, in the first solo flick, but this will further expand her relationship with the Greek Pantheon.
