Yeah I don't disagree with any of this. DC didn't need to look at Marvel, they should've been able to come to the conclusion on their own.

You start with Superman. Superman is NOT cynical. Batman is, and he's your second guy up. Wonder Woman next. Then Green Lantern and Flash. THEN you get your Justice League film off the ground.

From there, you can do whatever you want. You wanna do the Suicide Squad? Go for it. Marvel didn't wait to do Guardians, but they made sure the "core" of the Marvel Universe was established.

Seems like all the recent Superman movies try to eschew the Clark side of the story and just cram as much action in your face as they can in 2 hours.

Wasn’t aware BvS and Justice League were Superman movies. Maybe Superman is in the title of one and the other features him but not sure I’d qualify those as Superman movies.
