DIABOLICAL: Evil Schemes Done Better
TV & Film
“They must have sent a camel turd into space and frozen it, surely?”
The panel of peril ride frantically across a field on horseback throwing a blu ray from rider to rider. A final desperate lunge sees them insert it into a player in order to watch this week’s film Zack Snyder’s Justice League (Zack Snyder, 2021).
Batman (Ben Affleck), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), Cyborg (Ray Fisher), Superman (Henry Cavill) and Flash (Ezra Miller) are forced into an uneasy alliance when a mysterious invader named Steppenwolf (Ciaran Hinds) arrives on Earth. His intentions prove somewhat less than peaceful though, and he rampages across the globe seeking three mysterious motherboxes. Can the League prevent an Apokoliptic ending?

********PLOT SPOILER ALERT********
Steppenwolf is merely the underling attempting to please an even bigger bad in the form of Darkseid (Ray Porter). He seeks the boxes and yet another mysterious artefact in order to calm Darkseid’s anger and earn the right to return to his home planet. Sad to say, it will result in the complete destruction of Earth – our only hope lies with DC’s rag tag group of superheroes. Fingers crossed.
What did the panel think of this week’s movie? How can they improve upon the villain’s masterplan? And who will be anointed this week’s most diabolical?
