isn't even close to being the worst movie I've ever seen.

That title goes to Avatar: The Last Airbender.

I think Airbender is a cinematic gem compared to Legion, Indiana Jones Crystal Skull, or the last Die Hard.

Of course not.

I've seen worse.

I think BvS though is a weird mix of things:

1) Classic, old characters with a ton of history
2) Massive Amounts of Hype
3) Many people thinking BvS would solve the issues in MoS
4) Zack Snyder
5) David Goyer
6) The tension between the above, creating something that is supposed to be "more real, more impactful" than other superhero genre movies, and creating something that is both reverent and fulfilling.

This is Ghosbusters on an Epic scale. We can now forget about Ghostbusters and we don't see a sequel (yay!). This will live on, is living on, and even if we did get a reboot, we're AT LEAST 5 years away from that. And that's only if Wonder Woman bombs as well. If the next few movies are successful in any sense, any kind of reimagining is a decade away or more.
