That was the shittiest Green Lantern ever. Didn't make a construct or a shield or anything.

Quotey posted:The antilife stuff confused me too, to be honest. They seemed to be hinting that part of it was that giant sigil that Steppenwolf got called to? Also, they just forgot what planet they left their motherboxes on? Have they been conquering in the interim without motherboxes, or is it just Steppenwolf who had to do it manually? As opposed to the Whedon cut, I believe we're supposed to understand that those aren't the only three motherboxes that Darkseid has and uses to conquer worlds. They were just the ones he brought for this one job. If I'm remembering my DC lore properly, motherboxes are very rare but there are more than just a few in existence.

That scene was way too long, but I didn't mind because I love Cyborg's theme.

Beyond sense of scale and style, I really appreciate that every member of the League actually had a reason to be there, and the absence of just about any of the heroes would have caused the plan to fail. In the Whedon cut, everyone was just buying time for Superman to show up.

I'm actually calmed somewhat that there are plenty of people who don't like it. I was getting weirded out by all the positive reviews, worried maybe he toned it down. But it sounds like the opposite! Very excited!

I liked that the Atlateans and Amazons built containment temples for their motherboxes with people standing guard for millennia, while the Dudes just buried theirs in a shallow grave in the woods.

Wont be able to see it for another few days, but I wonder: Will watching the Snyder Cut allow later viewings of the Whedon Cut and maybe take it as some sort of spoof movie? Or does the Snyder Cut just completely obliterate the theatrical?

Despite thinking the first half could have used a tad bit of trimming, I freaking loved this film. First half set up the second half really well and when Clark comes back and remembering everything is some of the best acting I've seen from Cavill. This film was so friggan good. I'm still processing it so I don't have any indepth thoughts, but drat we were robbed with the theatrical release.

Wonder Woman's opening fight scene is so much better than Whedon's, it's insane. Hahaha she loving disintegrates the Game of Thrones dude, Goddamn. Also, the part where she knocks one dude across the room towards the hostages and then runs over and knocks him back to the other side. It also embarrasses WW84 retroactively. That's how Wonder Woman should fight without a shield and sword.

It's the version of Wonder Woman that i've been wanting to see but WB is too scared to show because they want their films to all be PG-13 in theaters. WW84 should just be forgotten, that is one of the top 5 worst super hero movies of all time.

The only thing from the Wheddon cut I felt should have been in the Snyder cut, unless I missed it, is when Steppenwolf comments to Cyborg about how he is made of the Motherbox and so he respects him. I liked that.

If I recall correctly, the closest we got to a pop song in either film was someone in a bar performing a cover of a song.

The League v. Superman fight is still probably the best action scene in the movie. And having Lois show up due to her own actions and motivations, instead of being there entirely as Batman's backup plan, is a good example of using the characters well.

Batman just looking like a moron once Clark notices him and having everyone trying to hold him back as he slowly makes his way over to him is way better than the goofball stuff and quipping he was doing in Whedons.

I can understand some things getting changed for tone or time, but seriously, what was gained in the Whedon film by making that change? Was it to show that even when Batman is in a bad spot, he's always in control and has a back-up plan?

Yes, this is actually a very common complaint on the comic side, that he's "theoretically" a regular guy at peak performance but in actuality is written to have supergenius "Batgod" levels of planning and contingency.

After sleeping on it, the film is still definitely good. A bit bloated in places, but given the way it was made and the decision to let Snyder do whatever the gently caress he wanted I'm actually okay with that. If I had two minor complaints about the film itself: Executing steppenwolf was thematically rather weird. You have him beaten, 'naked' and maimed on the ground, then they decapitate him on his way out the proverbial door? Seems like they'd have been better just throwing him to darksied and letting the latter crush him underfoot than have the 'good guys' execute a defeated foe in cold blood. Likewise, I get why they needed to in order for the plot, but having darksied's first appearance be him getting run off the planet half dead is not a good look.

It's so Bruce can foreshadow the "big gun" and have it be a Lois, which is a reverse of the joke from Age of Ultron when Iron Man refers to Veronica and it ends up being the Hulkbuster.
