Just bought Justice League digitally and I'm gonna do my best to go into it with an open mind and hopefully I enjoy it. Really curious to see if Cavill's mustache CGI is that noticeable.

I will say right out of the gate it doesn't seem like Batman is all that concerned with his secret identity as he's talking to Alfred and mentioning him by name right when he was discussing with a burglar that the demon was a scout. So clearly he burglar was in hearing distance of him.
THAT DOES IT! THIS MOVIE SUCKS! 0/10 WORST MOVIE EVER! jk

Ok....so now Lois is just openly calling Superman Clark in front of cops while he's flying in the air. So yeah, secret identities aren't important in this movie I guess. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing as nobody should be stupid enough to not figure out Clark Kent is Superman

Oh dear god, close up of Cavill's face and his mouth looks like a baby. It's creeping me out

Just finished it, credits are rolling and I gotta say it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It was better than BvS and Suicide Squad by far. I'd give it a solid 6/10. I'd possibly be interested in seeing a sequel down the road. Doubt I'd pay money to see it in theaters unless the trailers really grab me which they didn't for this film.
I didn't really have many complaints about it. Cyborg just looked weird to me throughout the movie. Like he was designed for a separate movie his CGI stood out that much. He was like chrome/bright and it didn't seem to fit in with the rest of the film.
Steppenwolf was just bland destroy the world villain but I expected that going in so nothing surprising there.
Not a fan of Barry Allen but I didn't hate him like I thought I would. it's just mostly I have a dislike of Ezra Miller it seems. I just really dislike his face.

No but Elon Musk doesn't dress up as a vigilante in his hometown where the murder of his parents was major headlines, subsequently raised by said butler who was his guardian, who seems to be the swiss army knives of butlers performing the duty of every other servant a billionaire would use.
Bruce Wayne isn't your typical billionaire even if you take the Batman out of the equation and neither is Alfred, plus as Death Man said that shit got logged somewhere, though I guess in this world secret identities aren't that strong given Luthor uncovered both Clark & Bruce's seemingly at will, Cyborg uncovered the entire teams again with ease, as did Luthor now I think about it, Superman is publicly called his regular name in front of people and Waller also seems to have full knowledge of everyone's secret's also.

No, but nobody is supposed to know that Bruce Wayne is Batman either. They just know him as a a billionaire/philanthropist like Bill gates or Elon Musk. So, why should they know who is butler is again? |

It would be just a name on the other end of a radio call. I don't see how that would connect with Bruce Wayne if you don't know the name of his butler or would even suspect that he would be involved with Batman. |

But you’d know that there is an “Alfred” in his orbit. Maybe from there you start thinking, “hmmm wonder who in Gotham is financed well off enough to back or be Batman? Wonder if said individual(s) know anyone named Alfred?”
I’m not saying he blew his cover but, for any reasonably smart criminal that was definitely a note-to-self moment.

So, why should they know who is butler is again? And after 20 years people would have a lot of little bits of the puzzle so saying Alfred's name out loud actually amounts to more of a risk, then again maybe this is something in the characters past that has come out so there being an Alfred isn't new intel to the criminals so it doesn't matter, or in line with the films original plot maybe Bruce doesn't care because he intends to die stopping the invasion, but just out of the blue him saying his accomplice's name out loud is bad form, you may say well who is meant to know, but I ask you this how many Alfred's are in Gotham? in regards to who is and is not a Batman ally Bruce could have just narrowed the suspect pool considerably, when you know the name of an accomplice you can reference just who each are and who they are connected to, you find an Alfred who is the Butler and guardian of a billionaire who owns one of the worlds leading tech companies and the who is the batman question becomes a lot clearer.

Cyborg was just a poor choice overall for live-action...since he's not completely covered up the way guys like Iron Man and War Machine are there's no way to hide his CGI or make it look normal when half his face is still human.

I don't think its the same people hearing the name Alfred all the time (outside of maybe Commissioner Gordon, who is not into turning Batman or finding out his identity). Maybe in our universe people want to know who Batman really is and may go out of their way to find out, but in this (fictional) world, not very many people know who the Batman is and after 20 years, he is more a myth and a legend than he is a real person. |

Says who? the crook seemed to recognise who Batman was, Cyborg knew about him as did Flash and Aquaman, Waller and her colleagues did as did the majority of the Suicide Squad, the only one who didn't was Clark but seeing as how up to 2 years prior to meeting Batman Clark spent all his adult life as some kind of drifter seemingly trying to stay away from society as much as possible, so not surprising he wouldn't know about the Batman.
But the point is he names Alfred in front of a crook you know the people Batman targets who have a reason to want to take him out, so now this guy who got nabbed by Batman when telling his story will have the tidbit of Batman works with someone called Alfred, we already know likes of Joker & Penguin are or were around so we know Batman does have reoccurring foes in this world, it just makes him saying Alfred out loud a sign he doersnt protect his secrets like he should.
And like I said given how Bruce is halfway suicidal in the film and was originally full on suicidal in the original script it makes sense he wouldn't care about keeping his secrets secret, same as to why keeping Clark's identity a secret, he rose from the dead both as Clark & Superman and the world is about to end why would he worry about a secret identity at that moment?

Wow, I was just making a joke about the whole Alfred thing but honestly? Given that Bruce Wayne is "Gotham's favorite son" or whatever he was called and he's in such the public eye in Gotham City I'd think it's safe to assume that multiple people would be aware of who his butler is and the person that raised him after his parents were murdered. I wouldn't think that Alfred only exists inside the Wayne Mansion and is like a ghost of a person.
But the suicidal argument makes a lot of sense that he just no longer gives a crap.
