I didn’t mind this movie (in fact, compared to most others here I absolutely loved it) but the Snyder cult is just neverending comedy

Oh joy
Zack Snyder’s ‘Justice League’ (2021) will now be officially released as a 4-hour film on HBO Max and not a 4-part miniseries.The R-Rated film will also receive an IMAX release according to Snyder himself. pic.twitter.com/N5wwdlZVgE— DR Movie News 📽 (@DRMovieNews1) January 17, 2021

Not sure which will be worse, endlessly hearing about this stupid shitty thing coming up, or endlessly hearing dipshits raving about it once it comes out.

Thank goodness this movie will finally have the opportunity to be good just like all those other Zack Snyder movies.

New trailer out for this today. I don't know what this says about me, but I've hated every one of Snyder's movies, the trailer looks exactly like the same old nonsense as before, and yet I'm kind of curious to see this, perhaps even feeling forgiving toward it. It's a vote against Whedon, too, I suppose, although no doubt there are dozens like him working at HBO/DC.

note that the joker scene is from dream sequence #1 in BvS meaning it will have no impact on anything else in the movie

OK since now there's apparently a black-and-white version of Zack Snyder's JUSTICE LEAGUE here's a thread detailing the extremely weird changes to this extremely weird movie, with all the weird twists and contradictions along the way.

I gotta be honest the "lol Snyder's process is nuts / he can't make up his mind" thing isn't all that funny or even weird when you remember he exited post-production when his daughter committed suicide
― stimmy stimmy yah (Simon H.), Monday, 15 February 2021 22:03 (three years ago) link
if he's too unstable to stick to a decision about the actual format of the film from week to week, maybe it's not a great idea to give him $70 million just to edit and reformat his film
― shivers me timber (sic), Monday, 15 February 2021 23:11 (three years ago) link
especially when the streaming service which you're paying him to make it for has already flopped so hard that you've fired many senior executives at, nearly half the editorial staff of, the entire marketing department of multiple decades' experience in, and completely shut down the dedicated streaming service of, the division of the company that manages the IP that Snyder is polishing

I don't care about the content or form of this film at all, just the ways in which it functions as one node of a malign destructive influence on the consumer / art relationship in toto

I agree and yet remain curious to see it.
I think perhaps I'm more sympathetic to Snyder's humourlessness because the last year has made me more humourless.
Given his family tragedy, and the fact that he lost (or "lost") his film to one of 2021's most hated assholes, I guess I have warmed to him a bit

Don't make me think about Watchmen though
at one point i might champion him for going full Snyder.

The big ol' story today
https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2021/02/the-true-story-of-justice-league-snyder-cut
Personally I come away with it thinking that Snyder -- in line with some other comments I've heard -- is indeed by all accounts a very decent fellow who absolutely adores his family and who along with his wife was understandably crushed at his daughter's passing. And, completely separately from that, has some absolutely 'the fuck?' storytelling choices.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 22 February 2021 22:24 (three years ago) link
I had never seen a photo of Snyder before, that is not what I expected him to look like. (Bill Simmons meets Seth McFarlane tbh)
― Joe Biden Stan Account (milo z), Monday, 22 February 2021 22:31 (three years ago) link
I feel for him, as he's definitely been through some terrible shit. And it's nice to hear that he's apparently a genuinely good guy. I just wish that he was, y'know, like a doctor or a car salesman or an alderman rather than the guy making these movies.
― The Mandolinrainian (Old Lunch), Monday, 22 February 2021 23:05 (three years ago) link
is indeed by all accounts a very decent fellow
Unfortunate that his own public statements tend to depict him as an aggressive, arrogant, bullying oaf with little comprehension of art or of opinions differing from his own. I'll read this story though.

Seriously. Most profiles are press releases, at least in part, but that read like it was written and edited by Snyder himself.
― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 23 February 2021 17:57 (three years ago) link
I think my favorite part is the thing where everyone has sheltered him from the Whedon cut because it was such a betrayal of Snyder's visionary genius.
― The Mandolinrainian (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 23 February 2021 18:00 (three years ago) link
Has he worked with the Sons of Anarchy guy? They seem like a match made in heaven.
― Joe Biden Stan Account (milo z), Tuesday, 23 February 2021 18:25 (three years ago) link
the whedon cut does sound v dumb and bad.
the snyder cut will also be dumb and bad but maybe not as much?
― himpathy with the devil (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 23 February 2021 18:30 (three years ago) link
maybe one day we can have the snyder uncut, 8 hours of justice league
Four hours long means dumb and bad. There has not been one of these superhero movies yet that could have used another hour.

the Peyton Reeds are characteristically bright, Spider-Verse is a million colours, Ragnarok was mostly well-lit and colourful, Incredibles 2 was just two years ago, Fast Color has a clue in the title, haven't seen the Sharkboy & Lava Girl sequel that just came out but Rodriguez' kids movies are usually shiny. Only seen trailers for the Spidey: Home movies but they seem clear and colourful, might well feel like slush though. Lego Batman and Teen Titans Go! are each hella colours and fun as heck.
There are way more grey sludge movies, but other options are available. Snyder's new zombie movie is probably grey too.

the MCU movies are the ones that feel rather than look like grey slush, just to be 1000% clear

as a fan of nu-metal horror you know what i'm talking about
though by and large nu-metal horror was pretty colorful. platinum dunes horror remakes of the late '00s are probably closer to bvs' color palette
