While it had a rocky start, the DCEU is an incredibly enjoyable movie franchise that I think way too many people overlook because it's beginning wasn't very strong, mainly due to how poorly Warner Bros. was run at the time this series was just starting out. Sure, it's inconsistent with it's tone and it's lows are really low, but as a comic book movie fan, I always enjoy a good DCEU film.
Peacemaker Review & Placement:
The first tv series installment of the DCEU was one that I thoroughly enjoyed. It highlights all the things that I love about James Gunn and his direction, the dark humor, the characters, the ensemble, the soundtrack, James Gunn did a great job with it…

Peacemaker Review & Placement:
The first tv series installment of the DCEU was one that I thoroughly enjoyed. It highlights all the things that I love about James Gunn and his direction, the dark humor, the characters, the ensemble, the soundtrack, James Gunn did a great job with it and I think it works quite well as a companion piece to The Suicide Squad. While it is filled with great laughs and incredible action, it also has some good emotion to it as well. This show managed to make Thursday my favorite day of the week for the 6 week span that it was airing throughout January and February. It's absolutely hilarious, it has a villain that you love to hate while making Peacemaker a likeable protagonist, it had what may be my favorite tv show intro of all time, and like The Suicide Squad itself, it managed to show James Gunn's full potential when adapting a comic book property and not being held back by the limitations that come with working for disney. It would go in between Shazam and Man of Steel, taking the #4 spot on this list.
