Have your opinion about Snyder and his movies, I just think it's kinda neat that a massive movie studio caved in to the fan outcry of "hey can we see this guy's actual vision for this movie instead of the executive-approved hack job with all the black people cut out?" I mean, I don't care about WB possibly losing money doing this, they only have their own bizarre mishandling of the franchise to blame lmao.

It also would be nice to see Ray Fisher, the actor who played Cyborg, be in a version of Justice League where he wasn't mistreated by management and loving Joss Whedon behind the scenes.

Unironically yes. Bunch of people wanted something, unofficially banded together with no real leadership and started a grass root action to achieve their goals. If some big shot execs felt bullied, all the better.

I mean, people that hate him will watch it just to dunk on him, and his fans will watch it because they've got great taste in movies, and the resulting clashes on social media and think pieces and youtube video essays will be free marketing for the film and streaming service. it's win win for HBO really.

i turned it off as soon as they started explaining the situation was Ukraine: "Evil Russian-Backed Warlord vs Noble The Resistance, and We the US Peacekeepers"

i don't care what twists there are in the movie how the gently caress does anyone write that unironically in 2020

its probably aged better at any rate lets compare their big sexism episodes

in the simpsons homer is unjustly accused of sexual harassment because he made gross drooling noises pulling a gummy off of the babysitters butt and the entire episode is about the wacky jazz hands media and their obsession with accusing men of being sexist with no evidence

whereas in dinosaurs the government clumsily solves sexism by mandating workplace gender quotas which backfires because the underqualified female dinosaur who gets the management job ends up accidentally sabotaging the company by increasing production too much because their economic system is stupid
