    Man it’s crazy how Warner Brothers literally held back the actors career that played cyborg. He went from someone I didn’t care about to his character becoming my favorite and his relationship with his Dad got me a little emotional at times while watching the movie. His performance was on point I hope he gets other opportunities. I also love how darksied was just as scary as thanos while not being a thanos copy. If DC Is smart they will let Snyder complete his vision. Also this is good for marvel because competition forces you to be your best. This was a masterpiece.

    This was Operatic that belongs on stage at Lincoln Center. As soon as the John Romita Jr designed Steppenwolf dropped in on Themiscyra, I screamed, "METAL!!!!!!" at my TV. I'm guessing, Zach pitched Bruce and Lois getting involved after Superman died because Bruce caused Clark to snap and Lois died (probably caught in the cross fire). Thus the Knightmare timeline was created. Now I understand why Ray Fisher was so pissed at Joss Whedon. In the Snyder cut Cyborg was the center piece while Joss Whedon diminished the impact of his role to just stoic stares. While not on the level of the Dark Knight or Winter Soldier, this was definitely a ground rule double that could be stretched into a triple.

      Exactly, it seems like Flash and Cyborg were properly represented in the movie. And that's the Superman I want in movies from here on out, the guy is a monster and he never cuts loose in his fights.

    Hi...51 year old hardcore Zack Snyder fan here.
    Getting the Snyder cut didn't come with being a double edged sword.
    There is no down side to artist integrity.
    This Snydercut movement benefits all movies Because it sends a strong message to the studio that movie goers don't want to keep paying money for butchered products.
    WB butchered "4" DCEU movies ...BVS..SS..Wonder Woman's 3rd act and JL was the biggest final straw, yet we as a fandom get this weird attitude from TH-camrs who are hunting for negatives.
    If Disney did to Endgame what WB did to JL, you best believe MCU fans would be on a war path .
    MCU fans did "# Beat Avatar"
    They advocated for an already successful movie to beat another movie, where as Snyder fans advocated for the Justice of a butchered movie..Yet we get demonized.
    And the Donner fans banged down WB's door in 2006 for that cut...As much as TH-camrs talk, they don't say anything about that.

    The Flash wasn’t an athlete and never was. His style of running is unique to him and he doesn’t need any proper posture or running techniques since he’s already fast.

    It is impossible for him to shoot scenes to further explain the black suit

  • @joaopauloduartedasilva4101
    @joaopauloduartedasilva4101 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I think that the thing with the Anti-life Equation is that Darkseid lost track of the planet in which the Equation was found. The planet probably didn't even have a name at the time, so when Steppenwolf found out that Earth was THE PLANET the stakes changed, and he needed the mother boxes synchronized in order to come here!
    Also, I don't think Snyder is coming back. He's been involved in it for 10 years now, and except for the SnyderCut being so successful he never got much reward before. People are incredible suspicious towards his vision and his directing style is a laughingstock in "serious" cinephile groups. He would need other 10 years to finish his original plans and I don't think it would be an easy path to follow, specially after rollercoaster of the last 3 years.
    Loved your review!!

      Your second paragraph is loaded with unfounded speculation. Just stop. Snyder was handpicked by Christopher Nolan and James Cameron has personally praised his work on several occasions. Your “serious” cinephile groups are full of Marvel loving trolls, so they can stuff it.

      @@namehereandthere Oh honey don't be silly. I love his entire DC trilogy (BvS being my favorite) and I'd gladly watch an 8 hour cut of his DC movies, so you don't need to school me on that.
      I'm talking about the criticism around his movies that killed momentum on Man of Steel and nearly sank BvS and the entire DCEU. Be a bit more realistic instead of calling everyvody a marvel troll - they surely exist, but it's not unreal to think that Zack's style might not be unanimous and that doesn't diminish the quality of his work.
      Besides, he said in an interview earlier today that he would come back if given the chance, so this discussion is already two days old.
      Peace.

    This movie was not ‘depressive’ ! I guess you were trying to make a point by saying ‘grim and depressive’ ... but one thing is yes the story is mature and a bit grim. But ‘depressive’ ? I was elated watching this fantastic film. I don’t get elated watching anything depressive. Sometimes you reviewers throw terms around too much without thinking.
    note: Darkseid did not find the right equation the first time. If I’m not mistaken they aren’t the same. Compare both images.

    I do have one question for you. I heard this movie will be formatted in a box ratio. Can you confirm this? Also if I set my software to stretch it to fill an entire 16x9 ratio and cut off some of the top and bottom of the frames will it cut off too much of the movie where I won’t be able to see key info?
    I might just need to watch it twice once in the box format and once in 16x9 😬

      I watched it in 4:3 on a 27‘‘ PC monitor - not ONCE was I distracted by a seemingly smaller picture! This film was so goddamn EPIC that I forgot about having black bars left and right at about one minute into the movie. 😄
      Of course you could stretch it to fill up your entire 16:9 screen - but I would really not recommend that. Quite a lot of Snyders beautiful compositions and also the action scenes simply need the whole space of the original 4:3 canvas. To me cropping the picture would feel like disrespecting the artist, to be brutally honest. I would recommend watching the entire movie at least twice, so that one viewing can utilize the intended aspect ratio.
      EDIT: Just saw that you had already considered that option on your own. 😅👍🏼

    • @AtlantaGuns

      I wouldn’t consider 4:3 smaller screen since you’re getting more info top and bottom instead of the traditional where the top and bottom are just black bars.
      I agree with you about respecting the artist so I will def watch it first in box ratio. Also might be good idea for me to break out the old Sony trinitron and watch it on CRT too for a third viewing 😛

    For how many Batman film adaptations there are, I think there needs to be so much more focus on his mental fracturedness, psyche, and detective work. He's a broken individual mentally and it should be heavily focused upon, especially with dream sequences.

    Ok I just did a first viewing on 4:3 and it looked glorious! Stylistically it fit this movie so much and made everything look so much more cinematic and scenic. I especially loved the part where they were getting ready to get on the bat plane and the shot went from left to right for the 6 of them and each hero looked so tall and bigger than life. I was so proud of Zach Snyder at the moment. It also felt like you’re flipping through pictures with your phone. It just worked.
    The story was much better too and I think batman started having nightmares after flash did that time travel thing in BvS, so it fits perfect for me.
    The part where everyone died and Flash had to use the speed force to reverse time and save everyone gave me chills. Reminded me of flashpoint paradox!
    I love this version so much gonna be a first day 4K buy for me.
    Throat notted up when the words For Autum scrolled up.
    Gonna Watch this again tomorrow in 16:9 format and see how it looks, but honestly I already know 4:3 aspect ratio is how I’m gonna watch this movie for me in the future.

    To be honest, Steppenwolf's axe should have at least caused superman some discomfort/pain. Better if he just had tanked the first blow, saying: Impressive, I felt that.
    Steppenwolf swings at him again in a fury but this time Superman catches the Axe by the handle halting the swing in mid air ( with some minor effort) and then ripping it from SWs grasp (Demonstrating supermans superior strength but still establishing that SW can still deal some pain if he lands his blows) then breaking it in half and punching him to the ground.

    This is obviously the superior version because the theatrical cut just didn’t have anything worth getting behind. I’d actually be in favor of more epic movies like this being released on the HBO platform so we can get real fleshed out characters. I will agree though that you are 100% correct about three script needing tightening. I never understand why they don’t get some of these comic book writers to work on a script or story like they do on a regular basis.

I rolled my eyes during several scenes, some of them in my opinion deserve nomination for Razzies awards.

      Whew...way too many slow motion sequences and musical accompaniments that didn’t add anything to the story. The only saving grace is that these scenes would have wound up on the cutting room floor and cut down the run time. TBH, I didn’t notice much difference between the films other than length. Both were slow, long and boring. I didn’t really feel anything for the characters. That’s not entirely Zack’s fault. These characters should have been introduced in solo movies. The only plus to the Snyder cut was the addition of the battle storyline that explained some of the mythos. The extra footage made a terribly boring film slightly less boring. I’m glad the fans and Zack got what they wanted though.
