Bingo lol. Very well put. Imagine if marvel started with infinity war, went to Ant-man 2, and then endgame
I mean, the Justice League is built out of the trinity of Batman, Superman & Wonder Woman, so any additional members are pretty much just a bonus. Literally to get to a JL movie you only needed those three characters' base stories, and then add the stories of the three or four other members you wanted to add, which is exactly what Snyder wanted to do in JL and was able to actually do in the 4hr version. So yeah, three or four movies is fine by me to get to where we are. I think the original plan of intro'ing Darkseid in JL and build to his attempted conquest in a JL2 was fine. They just did it in a way with two bad theatrical releases that ultimately (and understandably) didn't work with the general public.
And I think the Knightmare scenes show how screwed Earth would've been in future movies had Darkseid returned after JL to get the anti-life equation (which, I admit, I've always thought was kinda lame). I'd have liked to have seen Maxwell Lord used in a "Infinite Crisis"-style storyline to take control of Superman to lead to the "Evil Supes" they show us, so I was disappointed with how they used him in WW84.
