it their first time being revealed to society respectively. It's an origin story. The point of an origin story is to reveal the hero to society for the 1st time. If you're going to claim that's copying, then every superhero origin movie is a copy of Superman: The Movie because Superman: The Movie reveals Superman to society for the 1st time ever. Moreover, the reveal in Wonder Woman is nothing like the reveal in The First Avenger and is more like the reveal in Superman: The Movie.
Let's look at how Superman, Wonder Woman, and Captain America were revealed to society for the 1st time in their respective origin movies:
Superman - flies up, catches Lois, and then catches the falling helicopter with 1 hand, while John Williams' classic theme music (1 of the most recognized theme music in movie history) is playing. Saves Lois and saves dozens of people on the street who would've been crushed by the falling helicopter. Most iconic scene in CBM history.
Wonder Woman - climbs up the ladder, crosses No Man's Land, takes out a sniper at the top of the clock tower, and liberates the town from German soldiers. 2nd-most iconic scene in CBM history.
Captain America - does a dance with cheerleaders on stage for Stan Lee and punches out an actor dressed up to look like Hitler. No lives saved. No town liberated.
I don't deny that. Every hero is revealed to society differently through different circumstances. Same with non superhero movies with the movie's hero in general. It's not a trope the DCEU invented. Get your head out of your ass why don't you. Seriously, films of all genres copy each other all the time. Your first sentence you typed MCU fans claim that BvS was bad, yet 3 of MCU's movies have blatantly copied plot elements from BvS
. Yeah, there are some similar themes and concepts, but as evidence by RottenTomatoes and critic reviews, they're not bad and are pretty good and even did it better than the DCEU. We'll have to wait on Thor, but I'm sure that'll be another hit, but that's just a tagline. If you're really going to put a stick up your ass over just a tagline then you're pathetically grasping straws here trying to discredit the MCU in anyway |

The copying couldn't be more obvious. It would be like if Chick-fil-A or Popeyes started running ads saying our chicken is "finger-lickin' good". |

OR They're copying actual "Versus" Posters from actual Fights. Like Boxing Matches and stuff. |
