I am an MCU fan. I also thoroughly enjoyed Man of Steel, the extended version of Batman vs Superman, and Wonder Woman 2017. The MCU seems to want to tell a more lighthearted story. The DCEU seems to want to go into a darker direction. Warner Bros seemed to try to make Justice League some form of Avengers/DC hybrid, I guess. The fact that Zack's design of Steppenwolf is "scary" makes me really want to see this, as well as other reasons. Both the MCU and DCEU are very different from each other, which is a good thing, but I still find both entertaining, for different reasons. I hope the Snyder Cut comes out on DVD/Blue Ray soon.

He is not some CGI abomination, plus, he has a clear cut motivation. Darkseid is still the boring old generic monster. The Snydercut may have redeemed Steppenwolf but replaced one boring generic monster villain with another, letting Darkseid take his place instead. Even with Snyder at the helm of DCEU, Marvel is just better at movies than them and that's a fact.

@eddiek8179

3 жыл бұрын

That's simply being reductive. People are unnecessarily shitting on Whedon. He was given a unrealistic and stupid mandate, as was Snyder before him to deliver them a movie that is 2 hours long. Even if Snyder was given the power to release a cut he liked then, it would have still been 2 and half hours or slightly longer, allowing him to keep a lot of the scenes here to give context, easily giving him the edge over Whedon's. If Whedon was given a 2 and half hour mandate, he probably would have kept these scenes as well since a lot of the scenes from the 4 hour version did make it to the 2017 version. Snyder only shot one new scene for the 4 hour version - the rest were already filmed footage that had unfinished VFX shots, which also included Cyborg scenes. WB didn't want to give any extra money for those scenes and Whedon had to make do with what he had. Any re-shoots he had to make was to re-contextualize and modify certain scenes in order for the movie to make sense as a whole, since he had to cut a lot of pre-existing scenes out to keep within the 2 hour mark. The Snyder cut is definitely the better version, for sure but if Snyder had delivered a 2 hour movie in 2017, I wonder how disjointed it could have been - would it have been worse than Whedon's or better? It is so very rare that filmmaker gets to deliver a 4 hour movie with all extraneous and deleted scenes intact for consumption. A 4 hour version would have never been released in the cinemas. It's pretty great to see this version but any praise given to it needs to be within the context it was designed for and not as a real theatrical movie or even as a side to side comparison to Whedon's (except as a lark) because they're 2 different animals with 2 different objectives.

All's I knows is, when Snyder cut finished, I wanted more. A lot more.

I like Zack Snyder’s version of Batman and Superman. This one guy had a KZread video talking about how Batman V Superman is misunderstood and is actually better than what haters say and explains why. He goes deep into why and how the movie talks about the imagery of western civilization’s god problem. The video imo is well researched and explained. It’s those types of movies that I like. He also explains how the Christopher Reeve’s style of Superman (always smiling Boy Scout that fights for truth, justice and the American way) doesn’t fit in today’s society. There’s a part in the film where Clark is arguing with Perry White about the Daily Planet fighting for truth and justice. Perry White said it did back in 1950 but not anymore. I loved Christopher Reeve’s Superman. But I think it was harder to make good films about that kind of Superman. He’s almost so perfect there’s no character development or very little at least. He has very little struggles. He made one mistake in Superman 2 by turning human. The sequels were just him back to who he was again. Snyder’s version of Superman deals with trying to find his place in a world that’s not his and he faced situations where he’s struggling to do the right thing. When the kid in man of steel tried to fight him he was tempted to punch a hole through the kid’s chest but he didn’t. I feel that this kind of writing would fit any narrative of Superman losing himself than man made kryptonite with tar in it lol (Superman 3). I love Snyder’s version of Batman who lost his moral compass after seeing all the good people of Gotham turn evil and Superman’s fight with Zod destroying parts of metropolis and causing casualties. And it was Superman’s moment of humanity, begging and pleading the life of another, his mother, that brought hope for humanity back to Bruce. Usually it’s Superman that’s always the one spiraling out of control and Batman being the one to bring him back. The more flawed a character is the better the stories imo. I do agree that Warner Bros was trying to compete with marvel and they interrupted Zack’s vision to quickly make money. I blame Warner Bros for the reason why they there weren’t any solo films setting up for the Justice League. Zack probably kept his film 4 hours long to go out with a bang since WB said they weren’t going to continue the snyderverse after the Snyder cut anyway to show everyone what he had in store for his universe.

A lot of CEOs and others in charge have little to no experience in the industry themselves and are hired purely for management/business purposes from outside the industry. They're people whose main skill in life is making profit so they see EVERYTHING through the lens of what is more marketable/easier to digest by consumers so there can be huge disconnects between what the directors/fans want and what they believe will make the most money leading to huge changes in script etc. that can sometimes lead to messes like this.

That scene, along with the Batman Vs Superman Knightmare scene, is why the MCU will always gross more than the Snyderverse. Most of the movie going audience wants to see a fun movie where the superhero gets introduced/reintroduced, want to see humor, conflict, a plot twist, a fight between the superhero and the villain, and a (somewhat) happy ending. They leave the theater feeling good about the movie, themselves, and the world. The Synderverse, while an excellent idea and great execution when not interfered with, isn't the same. Most movie goers would get spooked by the Knightmare scene with Batman being swarmed by bad guys while demons are flying off with his people. Same thing with Batman, Flash, Aquaman's female sidekick, and the joker all allied and running from an evil Superman with a devastated Earth in the background. After watching Man of Steel, Wonder Woman (2017), Batman Vs Superman (Ultimate Edition), and the Snyder Cut of Justice League this MCU fan wants MORE Snyderverse, but I can see why it will never gross what the MCU was grossing while Stan Lee was alive. By the way, in your favorite scene some KZreadr pointed out the joker card meaning the truce between Batman and the Joker. Earlier, I believe, he pointed out in Cyborg's knightmare where Lois Lane was dead in Superman's arms, the torn joker card was floating around.

Irony is that Thanos the character was originally based on Darkseid (in the same way that Deadpool is based on Deathstroke).

I like Snyder's DC movies because they feel really honest about themselves. They're not trying to pander to anybody and its not made for children. His Superman acts like an adult man and doesn't spout off with a bunch of jokes about TikTok or other movies. Snyder is not a perfect director. He struggles with complicated stories with a bunch of intricate plotting. He can be convoluted. But he is an artist who has a signature visual approach. In an age where everything feels and looks the same, that much has to be admired, at the very least.

It seems as if the real villain here is neither Snyder nor Whedon. It's whichever cluster of studio execs approved a 4-Hour script fully aware that the contemplated movie wasn't going to end up being more than a couple of hours long. In the nature of the case, that had to mean weird, unsatisfactory edits in order to produce a satisfactory theatrical version. Those execs should probably be looking for alternate employment. At minimum, they need to learn that less is more. You don't have to do everything in a single movie.

I really loved the Snyder Cut. Although I agree that there was some weird music choices (i.e. them playing that lady singing "Hoh hoh hoh ahuh-hoh hoh" eveytime Wonder Woman did anything - that got old really fast) and there was way too many slow-motion cuts, however I thought the story and character development were way better compared to Joss Whedon's version. I thought the acting overall was a lot better by the main cast - they seemed to be a lot more enthusiastic and invested in Snyder's shots. Ben Affleck is still my favourite Batman. Don't get me wrong I think Christian Bale was awesome, Ibut just think Ben Affleck's is more comic accurate. Really dark, haunted, jaded and menacing like Batman should be. The best parts for me were the Knightmare sequence (the cinematography, acting and direction was outstanding) and Darkseid's conversation with Steppenwolf (so many chills watching that). I really hope WB resurrects the Snyderverse. I would love to see them finish off the Justice League Movies properly. Although it took a lot of work from a lot dedicated and passionate people to get the Snyder Cut released, so I'm happy to settle for this. Okay that's all I've got for today, I'll go away now.

Imitating what the MCU did is nothing to be ashamed of... The problem is, the DCEU rushed the heck out of its crossover films instead of taking its time. Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Captain America, Thor, and Iron Man 2 all came before The Avengers. Some of these movies weren't all that successful (none was an outright flop) but they introduced each character prior to the team-up. What came right after after Man of Steel? Batman V. Superman (which should have been like five movies in, not the second movie in the DCEU). Then came Wonder Woman, then Justice League. They rushed it. That, coupled with the fact they never got Supes quite right (the MCU, despite it's flaws, got its core characters' spirit "correct") and the DCEU went belly up.

@@ItsNotaTuhmah He was better in this movie then the theatrical cut but still nothing that great a character. And I'd say that from what I've seen a lot of people would've rathered him have a flashback scene as they would've found it cool. Sorry but the backstory of the main villain is something that's important to show , you cannot skip over it.

I realize that it's probably long past the time to comment on this video. That being said, Snyder's original vision was a three-movie arc, with Part 2 being the "nightmare vision" at the end of ZSJL (where Superman turns to the Dark Side), and Part 3 his gradual evolution into the "Blue Boy Scout" we all know and love. I can't blame Snyder for including a small bit of the latter, never-to-be-made 2nd and 3rd movies into his ZSJL, in an attempt to show fans where he was ultimately heading if his original three-movie contract had seen its ultimate fulfillment.

My favorite scene alone was flash’s time reversal, the music, the emotion was all there. So hard to believe they cut that out and made him essentially useless and annoying in the theatrical cut

@@lanedayes7956 For a 70 million dollar budget, I honestly had no problems with the special effects. For the plotholes, the majority of them are just glimpses for a possible sequel. As for why I didn't like Endgame: they executed the time travel part quite poorly in my opinion and it felt like a drag after a while, I was rewatching the movie a while ago and that part bored the shit out of me. The portal scene is cool but you can't really call what comes after a fight scene, it looks like a game of tag but with the infinity gauntlet. Captain Marvel has no role or good dialogue in the entire movie yet saves them twice. Marvel is really going overboard with the comedy. Some of the jokes are just shit. I honestly hated what they did to Hulk. They so-called merged Bruce Banner and Hulk but Hulk's whole personality is just gone. He only keeps the looks but even then, he's unable to fight. The whole plot of the movie was caused by a rat who accidentally stepped on a button which got Ant-man out of the quantum realm, so Ant-man could go to Avengers HQ and come with the brilliant idea of time travel. That's really lazy writing in my opinion.

My main problem with Snyder Cut is that they pretty easily could have shaved off about an hour and the movie would be better off for it, but they didn't because they were more interested in releasing all of their original footage than tell telling a better story.

I remember the Richard Donner Cut of Superman 2. It was so weird to see a completely different director take on Superman 2 when Superman 1 with Christopher Reeve was great the way it was, by Richard Donner. And TBH, I prefer the Donner Cut of Superman 2, because it felt consistent in its tone and storytelling to really highlight the best parts of the first movie while adding its own sequel flavor.
