What exactly is supposed to be different about his cut though? Is it just general tone and some dialogue, or were there whole scenes that just went unfilmed after Whedon took over? That movie is so overstuffed as is that I can’t imagine adding even more poo poo would help.

SUPPOSEDLY he delivered a near complete film that WB hated which is why they fired him and Whedon reshot the film. I hope it's true and the new version is totally different footage.

Ben was clearly back on the sauce as he was pudgy as gently caress.

The whole thing is re-cut to include Stephen Amell, Grant Gustin, and Melissa Benoist.

There's enough to change the film in an interesting way. And that's before we get into Snyder's cinematography. Honestly I wondered why they didn't just release something in graphic novel format, but enough people want to see his visuals as much as his story.

And that whole Russian Family poo poo is a Whedon addition whole cloth. There have been a few mentions of various things like Affleck having to re shoot more than half of his scenes and obviously ALL the Superman scenes were cut and rewritten.

Lurdiak posted:Why does everyone keep thinking Snyder's beliefs are the opposite of what he keeps saying and putting in his work. The guy is not a secret triple-satirical mystery genius. He is very literal. This is correct, Zack has all the sublety of a sledgehammer, but people still manage to jump through hoops to try to justify the "randian objectivist" nonsense.

Half the appeal of the CW DC shows is that they're so cheap and schlocky and fun. They harken back to, like, the late-90s/early-00s made-for-syndication adventure shows like Highlander, Birds of Prey, and Relic Hunter. Looking like a big budget blockbuster film wouldn't enhance that in any real way, it would just highlight how cheesy everything else about it is.

Yeah, Crisis worked in large part because it was a little bit silly and cheap. The Arrowverse people genuinely know what they are and don't overshoot and that makes it fun to just go with it when they go big. Trying to do the same thing with a big budget either transforms it into something else entirely or just makes it feel lame because it tried to be more than it was.

Does Sony have rights to any of the iterations of Spider-Women (Jessica Drew, Julia Carpenter?) You'd think they'd try to make them into movies instead of a character I keep confusing with DC's Roulette.

There were a lot of really lovely posts in this thread today while I was doing other things. I hope it's out of your systems but just in case: 1) If you're going to ascribe a political philosophy to an artist, especially a really contentious and broadly odious one like Objectivism, either be prepared to defend that ascription or keep your hot take in your pocket and spare everybody else. Have something better than "he does Crossfit" for god's sake. 2) None of you are Zach Snyder afaik so there's no reason to take people poo poo-talking his movies as personally as some of you are. And especially don't use his kid's death as a cudgel against people who don't like his stuff. Please chill out.

I think I just assumed the reason Drew hasn't been used by the MCU in Jessica Jones, SHIELD, or Captain Marvel stuff was her being in the Spider-Man/Sony block.

I think the Spider-Woman thing is complicated. Like Marvel can use Jessica Drew but can't call her Spider-Woman, and if you want to use her like a secret agent/detective there are other characters that would probably fit in better without any confusion.
