This might be the turning point in the Marvel vs. DC movie war. With the exception of Wonder Woman (which I find to be overrated; then again, I feel the same way about most superhero films in general from both sides of the aisle), Marvel has been kicking DC’s ass. Maybe Gunn can turn things around and give Disney Marvel some honest to God competition. It’s going to be tough, because the media is on Disney’s side (and has pretty much always been against DC from the start ever since Nolan left; though to be fair, much of their negative reviews have been justified, but their blind praise for several Marvel films hasn’t been). But, we’ll see.
