The DCEU is a cinematic playground where the likes of Batman, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman not only exist but team up to tackle threats too big for any one hero to handle. It's like assembling the ultimate superhero squad in your backyard, but instead of your action figures, it's with multimillion-dollar budgets and some of Hollywood's brightest stars.

From the gritty streets of Gotham to the mythic shores of Themyscira, the DCEU has whisked audiences away on adventures that range from exhilarating to, well, a tad polarizing. Imagine Batman, with all his brooding and gadgets, throwing down with Superman - yes, the flying, laser-eye-shooting icon of hope. Or picture Wonder Woman charging through No Man's Land, shield raised, defying both bullets and skeptics, proving that yes, superhero movies can indeed be awe-inspiring and critically acclaimed. Then there's Aquaman, which basically said, "Hold my trident," and took us under the sea where the fashion sense is wildly different, but the action is just as intense.

But hey, it's not all smooth sailing in the DCEU. For every awe-inspiring moment of heroism, there's been a CGI snafu that left us scratching our heads or a storyline that made us go, "Huh?" faster than The Flash on his best day. It's like baking a superhero cake - sometimes it comes out looking and tasting amazing, and other times, well, it's a bit undercooked. But that's the charm of the DCEU; it's a bold, ambitious, sometimes messy, but always fascinating cinematic journey. Through triumphs and trials, it continues to evolve, promising more epic showdowns, more heroic deeds, and yes, hopefully, smoother CGI.

Let's take a look at seven almost unforgivably bad CGI moments that were so awful, they turned iconic.
