WB is guilty for their panic and the decision to reshoot stuff, since MoS if you will.

Whedon is guilty for the ****** reshoots themselves as the hack he is.

Nobody has any problem understanding all that, I didn't see anyone assuming Whedon ACTUALLY did the cutting.

:slap

Update: JL has amassed a whopping $200M in domestic box office after 19 days, only $7M behind what that hack's Avengers movie made during its opening weekend five years ago. Maybe WB should have let Whedon rewrite/reshoot the whole film?
 
I forget there's a Whedonville. Ew.

But if having the lowest opening of all the DCEU even below Snyder is an achievement. Then what a guy! Breaking records on both ends.
 
Ha! Nice, but I don't think we can give JW all the "credit" for this latest achievement, but no doubt some should lie at his feet. Most of it should go to the suits for demanding the movie be cut/changed. Despite my disappointment with BvS, I remain a fan of Snyder's & would have preferred that his complete JL vision had made it to the screen. But as I understand it, WB/DC put the kibosh on that possibility BEFORE Snyder brought in Whedon for some script doctoring. Between Snyder having to leave, ballooning costs and the ticking clock, the odds were stacked against Whedon both appeasing the studio and delivering a great movie from what was left of the carcass.
 
I agree, the bulk of the guilt should go with WB. Whedon was tasked something difficult, and he didn't try very hard anyway, so that's the extent of his responsibility,

I honestly hope Disney buys DC now, a year ago I would be utterly against it. But holy crap WB.
 
Are they still going to let him make Batgirlwoman?

There were reports suggesting he was not gonna direct anymore. Then got debunked. He's still on lol. Liking the negative steppenwolf tweet outraged a bunch loll

Warner Bros. planning to restructure DC Films division

Following the box office disappointment of their latest feature, Justice League, Variety reports that Warner Bros. is in the process of shifting and restructuring their DC Films division. The outlet reveals that current head of DC Films, Jon Berg, will be shifted to a different position in the studio, working as a production partner alongside IT producer Roy Lee.

“This is something that Jon approached me about six months ago, and he expressed his goal was to ultimately be a producer at the studio,” Warner Bros. Pictures Group President Toby Emmerich told Variety. “I first met Jon when, as a producer, he brought ‘Elf’ to New Line, which remains one of the best and most evergreen titles in the library. We’re thrilled that Jon is partnering with Roy and anticipate their company being a valuable source of movies for Warner Bros. and New Line.”

A replacement for Berg is in the works and that person will continue to work alongside DC CCO Geoff Johns. The outlet also reports that Warner Bros. is considering moving their DC films under their main production arm, making it no longer a separate division of the studio, similar to how the X-Men films are set up at 20th Century Fox and unlike Marvel Studios at Disney. Variety reports the overhaul of DC Films is expected to happen by January.

The decision for restructuring comes after Justice League has brought in just $572 million worldwide, making it the lowest grossing film in the DCEU by almost $100 million. Troubles on Justice League first began as an early cut of the film by Zack Snyder was screened for studio executives (which we now know DID feature the famous black suit for Superman) who were reportedly alarmed by its dark tone, which had been a major criticism of Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

WB reportedly doesn’t consider Justice League a failure, however, as it successfully introduced audiences to Ezra Miller’s The Flash and Jason Momoa’s Aquaman, both of which have their own films in the works. The Aquaman solo film is set to arrive in theaters on December 21, 2018 while The Flash movie will reportedly bring Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and Ben Affleck’s Batman back together for an adaptation of the “Flashpoint” storyline. Affleck, however, is not expected to star in director Matt Reeves’ upcoming Batman feature film, which will reportedly have all-new talent.
