Guaranteed the sequel will have a budget in the $100+ million range. And they should make a live action version of this with that budget: At the very least we can expect a fourth-wall break acknowledging the higher budget as a counterpoint for the wisecracks about the smaller budget in the first.

Ultimate Edition spoiler review. For those who don't want spoilers, apparently comparing the two versions is like night and day.
John Schnepp, who hated the theatrical cut, really really likes this cut.
A lot of other people also seem to voice this opinion. Now I'm definitely interested in checking out the Ultimate Edition.

Sounds like some of the silly Snyder-isms are still in, but that they made the very, very odd choice to get the movie down to 2 1/2 hours by cutting out...the plot.

Apprantenly the reason why Wonder Woman's costume is so deep in red is because they wanted to go with the idea of her breastplate covered with the blood of all the people she's slain over the years.

So can someone give a list of differences and what was cut so I don't have to watch a 34 minute video.

Sounds like just the kind of hero I'd trust guarding my city. also sounds just like WW.... While it's true she has and will kill if IT IS NECESSARY the Amazons are not sword swinging psychopaths, (hell for years they were known as the Amazons of Aphrodite... you know the Goddess of Love.) I haven't even read a lot of WW and know these basic facts about her...

So can someone give a list of differences and what was cut so I don't have to watch a 34 minute video. Without giving stuff away: you know how the first two acts of BvS had editing that felt like it was yanking you into each scene, really hard cuts and rough transitions? Apparently, the full cut keeps in the stuff that makes the transitions a lot easier, and makes the movie flow a lot better. They kept making a point to say that the 2 1/2 hour cut felt a lot longer to watch than the 3 hour cut. Plus, one of the big complaints many people have about the first cut is that Lex's plan doesn't make a lot of sense; turns out a lot of the stuff cut out makes it clear how Lex is manipulating everyone very thoroughly. Sounds like it still isn't perfect, but it sounds like it just works better. Finally, they got to saying how you see more Clark Kent in the full version, which serves to humanize Superman, show him smiling more, give him some more dialog, etc. So yeah, plenty of flaws still there, but it would've just worked better as a film, straight up, if they had left it 3 hours. Doesn't sound like there are many long scenes cuts, just short bursts that make things work better. Oh, also, the Batman warehouse fight scene apparently earns the full cut a R rating.

Just wait till you guys see the extended cut of my "Zack Snyder is the dirt worst." post!
I add back in certain parts of the sentence that make it flow much better, but also helps it earn it's hard R rating.

I kinda like Wonder Woman to be a warrior who's willing to kill. It makes her different than Bats and Supernan. The blood thing is a little too far tho.

Did Zack Snyder ever mature past puberty? That kind of stuff sounds cool to kids 14 years old and under, hackneyed and pretentious to everyone else.

Watched 300 recently. And I still like it. But it only further solidified to me why Snyder was so good w/ that kind of piece and so bad with i'd argue, most movies: It's visual. And Millers TPB is very stylistically drawn. So it's perfect for stylistic Snyder. Dudes killing dudes and make it look cool.
A BVS film requires acting, proper pacing, scale, tone, intentions, motivations and also what Marvel has proven, a level of fun. Snyder gets none of this. And JL is still on the way.

The trade paper back was Spartan Propaganda. in the movie Snyder added scenes that didn't exist in the book and speak of events that the narrator wasn't privy too.

Yeah, noticed that last bit when I watched it recentltly and did a quick double-take.

He thinks he's being clever adding things but really just shows that he missed the point entirely.

Okay, I watched the "Ultimate" edition. I'll upgrade the movie from a 3/10 to a full Bret Hart. It flows better, actually fleshes out parts of the story that needed fleshing out, but doesn't do anything to fix the many other glaring issues the movie has.
