I guess what I'm saying is, maybe Warner wants in on the big superhero payout, but is afraid/aware the bubble will burst soon.
I typed out a huge, wandering reply that I deleted, becaus there were many angles involved. I'll keep this to the simplest, most pressing one.
I want to see Avengers vs Thanos. Backstories and character development are nice, but I'm not in this for the drama. There are many better dramas out there, in far more realistic settings. This is a fantasy genre, about superpowered heroes fighting and defeating superpowered villains.
I'm getting a little tired of the Hydra backplot, and the continual random new characters. If you want to make a perpetual never-ending story, put it on HBO like GoT.
If DC wants to jam in a lot of stuff early, and we get Justice League vs Darkseid by the 4th film or so, and the arc is complete before the actors age too much to keep buying as the leads, that's not a bad thing.

They're world-building - that's a different goal, because.....

We are going to get Thanos, and we are going to get some deaths, and Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Dr. Strange will take over for a few years. There's an obvious plan at play. And there are more big bads than just Thanos. Like Kang. Or Annihilus. And if we ever get there - The Maker and Dr. Doom. That stuff would be epic.
And it SEEMS DC is going there too. You aren't getting Darkseid in movie #4 though. Darkseid is now 8 years out at least. Probably around movie #10.

Marvel will get a pass on just about everything here; DC will get lambasted for every minor misstep. Face it, if Superman had done the "superhero landing in BvS post- Deadpool the Marvel fanboys on here would be screaming, "Snyder is such a clichéd hack!!! Deadpool totally clowned him!!! What a POS!" Yet, in Civil War Spiderman nails the dismount in the epitome of the "superhero landing" and what do we hear? Crickets. And the Marvel fanboys here will deny it, but they know it's true.
BvS' Batman action scenes are some of the best in the superhero genre. Was it the greatest movie I've seen? Nope. Enjoyed it, though.
