“We work for the DOD.”

Labs experiments with an electron laser, which frankly has minimal relation to xenoscience.
Secretively, Stone also tests the Motherbox, making the lab a target for Steppenwolf.
The Atlanteans could only speak normally, as humans do when they create air bubbles.
This decision to make them sound like marine creatures while conversing underwater is an element that stands out.
For one,the use of air bubbles is uselesswhen communicating with one Atlantean to another.
When Steppenwolf (Ciaran Hinds) comes to claim the Motherbox at S.T.A.R.

Labs, Silas stays behind to ensure it is protected.
In this situation, the sacrifice appears dramatic but may not align with its actual practical needs.
In this scenario,his noble act feels more like a plot equipment than a logical outcome.

7Motherboxes Calling After Superman Died
No Man of Steel?
The Motherboxes inZack Snyders Justice Leagueare integral to the conflict in the movie.
It is implied that Supermans (Henry Cavill) last cry when stabbed by Doomsday triggers the Motherboxes.

They begin to react, calling to Apokolips and Steppenwolf’s forces.
Should Darkseid decide to invade, then Earth is left unprotected and could easily fall.
The confusion stems from the established idea thatAtlanteans can only breathe underwater.

Yet, in the context of Steppenwolfs interrogation,the Atlanteans engage in lengthy conversations without gasping for water.
Since the guards are not half-blood, they should not be able to do so.
5The League Waits
Urgency isn’t exactly rampant in the League, huh?

Nevertheless, in the next scene, they are depicted waiting at the Batcave.
Eventually, Batman’s Flying Fox takes flight because of Cyborg’s initiative to communicate with and fix it.
Given the stakesthe fate of the worldthis pause seems unnecessary.

Still, audiences just need to have faith that the Justice League will prevail.
The black-clad terrorist stands in disbelief after Wonder Woman deflects all the bullets he fired.
She encourages him to believe what he sees before delivering her fatal final blow.

Compared toPatty Jenkins' films, Wonder Woman is depicted to be fiercer in Snyder’s films.
She also kills the terrorists in front of school children, which is highly uncalled for.
This encounter is poignant and helps Lois achieve acceptance.

The boxes are separated and hidden by the Amazons, the Atlanteans, and the race of mortal men.
The shallow burial of the Motherboxes raises significant logistical questions.
Was that location chosen deliberately, or did the king just want to be rid of it?

This discrepancy leaves audiences wonderinghow such crucial artifacts could be left unguarded for centuries.
However, the formidable conqueror of numerous worlds did not expect such resistance and was soundly defeated.
The Motherboxes are left behind on Earth, and the deadly equation remains hidden.

As Darkseid retreats, the Earth becomes anonymous among trillions of worlds on his radar.
Earth is the only world that defeats him and has the three Motherboxes and the Anti-Life Equation.
