Guessing this is in the Robert Pattinson Batman continuity...
DC really screwed the pooch ... went a different direction from Marvel's MCU, didn't they?
I suppose I could shoehorn a DC Continuity as follows
Wonder Woman
The Joker
WW84
Christopher Nolan's Batman (a newer, more psychotic Joker)
Man of Steel
Batman vs Superman (Affleck playing the Same Batman, older and more beat up)
Suicide Squad (3rd Joker--this one looks to be a wannabe Joker)
Justice League (Snyder Cut -- It really works better as two movies)
Aquaman
The Flash (upcoming, may acknowledge a multiuniverse, this Flash has appeared on the TV Flash as well)

It was truly stunning how bad WW84 was, given how good WW was and given the fact that same people were attached to both movies.

I’m right there with you.
After Clooney’s Batman, I’ve only seen WW - and I love it.
On the other hand, I’m almost done with Marvel movies. Then will be the series, and then Ray’s Star Wars I guess haha…

That's it. I really need to get with the program. 
The Nolan/Bale Batman movies are worth the time to watch. I enjoyed
Man of Steel (and
Superman Returns, to be honest). Beyond that in the DCU... meh.
Batman vs. Superman was really dumb, but it does have the singular and not inconsequential benefit of being the movie that introduces Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman (as well as her awesome theme music!).
