I don't like DC movies

I'm systematically working on catching up on contemporary movies, in part so I can understand modern thinking and referants, in part because why not?
I've been working on superhero movies because, again, why not? and discovering a pattern. DC movies are sad and angry, for the most part, and leave me feeling much the same. The recent Marvel films are much more entertaining.
Now I haven't see the whole set yet and perhaps I will change my mind. Wonder Woman was the best of the lot, but Justice League was not very interesting and Batman vs Superman was just plain boring. In the latter, Batman has a problem: how to protect the world from Superman. His solution: kill a lot of people standing between him and Kryptonite. This is just stupid, both from a strategic standpoint and from an innocent-bystander standpoint - his Gotham City or Metropolis are terrible places to live. At least the Avengers face consequences when their superhero battles go wrong - that's the backline of "Civil War" and it made the story more interesting than "Batman vs. Superman"'s Doomsday fight. (And what's up with Lex Luthor anyway? He gains access to information from 100,000 worlds and instead of going, cool, I'm gonna be rich! he throws it all away on a crazy plan to kill Superman. He's not so smart).
But perhaps DC will take a lesson from "Wonder Woman". Perhaps not.

Timely tax tip

TIMELY TIP: "About 1 million [American] taxpayers who did not file a 2014 federal income tax return have unclaimed tax refunds totaling about $1.1 billion. "To collect the money, taxpayers must file their 2014 tax return with the IRS no later than this year's tax deadline, Tuesday, April 17. "The IRS estimates that half of the refunds are more than $847.
"When a taxpayer who is getting a refund does not file a return, the law gives them three years to claim that tax refund. If the taxpayer does not file a tax return within three years, the money goes back to the U.S. Treasury. For 2014 tax returns, the three-year window closes April 17, 2018.
"By failing to file a tax return, people stand to lose more than just their tax refund. Many low- and moderate-income workers may be eligible for the earned income tax credit. For 2014, the credit was worth as much as $6,143.
"Current and prior year tax forms are available on the IRS.gov Forms, Instructions and Publications page or by calling toll-free 800-TAX-FORM."
