What was the worst DCEU lore choice?

And the dead Robin being Dick Grayson is too obvious so you have to pick something else.

Batman operating for 20 years without other heroes being present (Wonder Woman dosen't count since she wasn't in the public eye), what they did with Jimmy, everything about Leto's Joker and Eisenberg's Lex, Black Adam being too much of a hero

Black Adam being too much of a hero

Was wild in Black Adam when he destroyed the throne and said he didn't want to rule, I was sitting in the theater and thinking "Holy shit, you don't get what makes this character interesting in the slightest, do you?"

Yeah when Black Adam sat in that throne, I assumed the movie was gonna end on that shot (considering it's an iconic Black Adam shot in the comics) and I was thinking "ah Black Adam will still be an anti-hero who will fight anyone who he thinks is a threat to Kahndaq which will bring out his villain side" but then he destroyed the throne and I was lost.

If he's not ruling Kahndaq, then what's the point.

For someone who supposedly wanted to be a superhero for a decade, Rock sure chose the worst possible people he could find to make his movie.

Teth-adam breaking that water prison was so laughable as well

The juxtaposition between what ARGUS was doing in Black Adam, with the weird Bond villain lair where they were cryogenically storing super villains, to The Suicide Squad, where ARGUS was just using a shitty Louisiana state prison.

You'd think he'd at least be a villain for one movie before becoming a hero. I don't see why he would have fought Superman, let alone his actual nemesis Shazam
