[@woodrobin]

Basically Ares in the DCEU reacted to humanity turning its back on the Olympians by saying "look at these a-holes: we kick Darkseid's can back into space, look after them, and they treat us like this? They cut down the forests, kill each other, rape the land? We can do better. Let's wipe these fools out and start over with a new batch." That's what he proposes to Diana in Wonder Woman: join their powers, delete humanity, restore Earth to a paradise, and start fresh. The other Gods basically responded with "Ares, chill bro, that's a little heavy," and Ares chose violence.

[@niranjanbabu2848]

I take it as Uxas likes to take real challenges whether he wins it or not🤷🏻‍♂️

[@aaronlimeuchin7352]

@@niranjanbabu2848 no, before he took the name Darkseid, Uxas went to every reach of space in search not for new challenges, but for the powerful Anti-Life Equation. He knew the Equation is out there, but he is not certain the precise location of it, which planet, which galaxy. The war on Earth is probably one of Uxas' search for the Equation. In one of the scenes in the Zack Zynder's Justice League, Steppenwolf, Darkseid's uncle confirm with DeSaad that Earth did contain the Anti-Life Equation which Darkseid so madly coveted. In my speculation, the reason why Uxas did not realized that Earth may had contain the Equation is probably Earth was still some sort a vibrant place where there was harmony, honor, unity, and friendship among The Old Gods, humans, Atlanteans, Amazons, etc. As one may figured from the storyline of the movie, the old Earth become a hellhole now. The Old Gods went extinct, the Amazons hid themselves on an island, the Atlanteans become fishmen. As for the humans, well, let just say that they are fond of backstabbing each other despite their technological advancements. And all of that came down into a big mass of negative emotions such as fear, sadness, hate, etc which cause the birth of the Anti-Life Equation.

[@PermanentHigh]

It's because Darkseid didn't believe that anyone could stop him. You gotta realize that he's already conquered hundreds of not thousands of worlds by the time he attacked Earth

One more thing: Darkseid wasn't prepared for this battle or the Unity Attempt. Seeing how Darkseid - then Uxas - failed to find Earth again after retreating, leads me to believe he and his entourage accidentally stumbled across the planet and found the ALEquation's final piece. However, after the retreat, he was unable to return because Artemis' magic arrow had probably destroyed the ship's navigational log and other systems, destroying the backups and rendering Darkseid unable to return.

It’s so epic to see all Greek gods fight along side each other to defend earth. But for some reason I expected this battle to be more chaotic than that.

I don't think the point of the scene was to have an actual fight. The point was to show that there was a time where earth's heroes were united. Otherwise this would have been a really long scene

[@utsavdhyani8839]

It was probably the first big fight of Ares. He was still pretty much a noob considering how he just runs into bad guys including Darksied who just killed GL. Compared to WW where he is an experienced veteran who can probably read WW's next move before she even thinks.

[@tylerschoen5643]

@@utsavdhyani8839 are you saying the god of war didn’t know how to fight? What else should he have done while DS is being blasted and assaulted by other gods?

David Thewlis in this five second clip was better than the entire Wonder Woman movie. This is the genius of Zack Snyder - he even made someone like Professor Lupin look terrifying as the bloodthirsty Greek war god.

[@gouziking9320]

Maybe after all those years of exile after Zeus banish him.. he came to Hogwarts as Professor Lupin and one of the Mauraders😂

[@dutchvonrichardson]

Yeah but the Wonder Woman movie explains (thus why Ares as Sir Patrick walks with a limp), Zeus used the last remaining bit of his power to defeat Ares, not kill him, but definitely humble him to where he wasn’t at his full power again.

[@ahsanhaider6549]

Very weird comparison tbh. Here we see him in war, looking manly, macho and all, doing war stuffs. In wonder woman, we see him at war only at the final showdown. It's like saying I like Arnold in gym, but not at a podium delivering speeches, because he doesn't go shirtless while delivering those speeches. Different scenarios will highlight different traits.

[@Kncperseus]

@@ahsanhaider6549 making him look terrifying in the final showdown in WW would have been enough. Here, when not wearing the helmet, you can see a god with ferocious, vicious eyes and glare. I can understand Thewlis as Sir Patrick looking tame, but once he revealed his identity to Diana, I expected him to regain that bearing of a god. He felt less like a god of war, more like a trickster. In short, I think it was a poor choice to make Ares the final boss of the WW movie. It should have been someone like Hermes, or Apollo - any god but Ares. Patty Jenkins is a great director, but she didn't possess Zack Snyder's gift to transform characters into something other than what you expect of them.

[@diegoclark7697]

@@Kncperseus I think Ares was Zack's idea. He wrote the movie. The problem was the studio reshooting the final act of the movie. It was supposed to be bigger than what we saw. Like a man of steel type action. But with Ares and WW

He hit him so hard Darkseid have to redo his life choices and totally forgot about his boxs and anti life equation and planet location all together until his exiles uncle showed up there randomly wants his dear darksied to come again to get his ass kicked again i bet he won't be healed from such trauma ever again

And mother boxes were here for so so so long. Maybe since Zeus separated them, they became inactive, but my point is, after getting beaten by old Gods, the Uxas returned to his homeworld. That requires some co-ordinates even if he made some kind of wormhole jump etc. One thing is maybe because of sheer humiliation, they never dare look back at earth until he gained more power and other thing we can assume is that its been 5000 years so maybe they may not have accurate method to predict the speed at which the universe is extending and thus unable to find it.
