i think Warner Bros. is missing out on an obvious money making opportunity here. if the fans want the Snyder Cut, give them the Synder. imagine it: a never say die Snyder fan walks into their local store, heads over to the movie section, they reach out and pick up "Justice League: The Snyder Cut" blu-ray with the super duper badass cover, they walk up to the front, pay $25 for it, rush home, rip off the plastic, their hands tremble with anticipation as the case slowly opens to reveal...nothing. an empty case.
if the fans want something that doesn't exist, sell them something that doesn't exist. maybe then they'll shut up about it.

Holy shit, talk about choosing the LAMEST hill to die on. When you're quoting Winston Churchill about a f***ing Superman movie....it's time to go the f*** to bed.

The Snyder Cut people have to be the most delusional group of nerds ever. A real marching band to nowhere.
Considering how many groups of delusional nerds are out there, that's saying something.

Jason Momoa has apparently seen what these people are claiming is the Snyder Cut, and he says "It's long! Like, intermission-long!" This means it's almost certainly the very first rough edit submitted to Warner Bros. which directly led them to bringing in Whedon to do a new edit and write for the reshoots (for comparison, the first edit of BVS was said to be five hours), which Snyder was originally going to direct. That's the version that they want. It would take tens of millions of dollars to finish up that version of the movie and then distribute it. The SnyderCutters are a niche audience within a niche audience, which makes the profit margins way too small to consider, especially considering the movie already lost a ton of money theatrically.

Screeching adult babies screeching about a movie that was mediocre at best, kicking and screaming on the floor for a rough cut made by the shittiest director this side of Tommy Wiseau.
Zack Snyder and his fans deserve each other.

Isn't most of the crap in the movie stuff that he shot anyhow? I'm pretty sure all Whedon handled were a handful of added scenes and the editing process. It's not like Zack Snyder's version wasn't going to have the same shit villain and the same boring plot.

I will admit I am not an expert on film when it comes to a different director doing post production and reshoots on a film that was essentially done.
So can someone explain to me which scenes where Whedon's and Snyders? I noticed different scenes with Affleck in the suit and how tone wise it did look different from Snyder's vision. But was any of Snyder's vision left in the film in general or was it essentially Whedon's in the end?

According to reports, everything featuring Superman was reshot, with just one line surviving from Snyder's footage. The Russian family in the third act was a Whedon creation, and the Bruce/Diana sexual tension subplot was added to give Diana more screen time after Wonder Woman's success. About 75% of the humour is Whedon's, too. More detailed info is here: screenrant.com/justice-league-movie-reshoot-changes-explained-snyder-whedon/

Justice League was an affront to the core DCEU fans? How about Snyder's work shitting all over the characters that have lasted for decades before him? Wouldn't his work be an affront to the fans of characters?
Snyder respects superheroes and takes them seriously? Is that why he made Superman mopey, brooding, depressed, and at one point had him give up on humanity? Is that why Batman kills people without a second thought? Yeah, great understanding of those characters.
As for Snyder making great movies that aren't just comic book movies. Marvel's been doing the same thing. Winter Soldier was a great political thriller, Guardians of the Galaxy was a really fun Sci-Fi movie, Ant-Man was a good heist film, and that's just naming some.
Yes, we do want DC's movies to be more like Marvel's movies, because the people making Marvel movies understand the characters. They don't turn them into something completely different, and try to pass it off as edgy. They'll change stuff around the characters, but the characters will remain who we've loved for years. Cap isn't broody and depressed, he's still Cap, he's still the leader, he's still a shining beacon of what's good. Spidey isn't going to turn into somebody with no regard for human life, and drop his positivity. Thor won't become a power hungry god who thinks he should rule over humanity.

I don't want them to become like Marvel movies in a tonal sense (they do at least care the characters are done right I'll give em that) but just lighten up a bit, Humour is fine but don't go overboard (If the character is comedic in general then fine).

That lady was talking about Dawn of Justice like Snyder was Tarkovsky. They made a meme with Snyder replacing Jesus Christ. I'm fully expecting them to demand that MLK Day be renamed MLK Dawn of Justice Day next year. Just a collection of sad misbegotten losers, these people.

If these people want the Snyder Cut, I'm going to protest for the buddy comedy/musical Solo cut!

A decade ago, when he did Watchmen, he was all "I don't really care for comic movies at all because they aren't true to the story". He then makes a movie about an escaped octopus on the roof of Springfield Elementary.

You just made me think of the empty box of Hart vs. Magee from the WWE Unreleased host segments.

Had to skim through Crazy Lady's text to read the new posts and just happened to see this quote of hers
"They did believe Snyder's JL cut would have been financially successful but they were afraid it will be polarizing in the critics' eyes too."
This is the most fundamentally incorrect statement about the motion picture industry that I can imagine. WB execs would gladly dig up the bones of Siskel & Ebert and light them on fire in front of every single Rotten Tomatoes contributor if it meant they would have made even $50 million of profit on Justice League. The people making the movie care about critical response. The people funding the movie couldn't care less if they made The Apu Trilogy or Son-In-Law, they only care about how much money it makes them.
It would be one thing if these folk were just like "I like Snyder's films, it would be cool to see what he had in mind, etc." Hell, I'm still waiting for the real cut of The Magnificent Ambersons. But the heights their smug stupidity rises to makes me loathe them something fierce.
