I can only agree that it is a cultural reference.

It is quite possible to make a serious sci-fi movie without treating the DWU seriously. For me the idea of bringing all the villains from all the franchises to nuke it out is similar to the rap battle between Groot and Hodor. It is based on multiple mythologies and represents some of their elements faithfully, but it was never intended to be set within any one of those mythologies.
