Not for like, a month, Zhuge hasnt updated my tag yet
Anyways, I worked on the most successful mobile game in EA's history. Your point?
"Idiots" may be a bit strong. It's less idiocy and more insanity, really. Still think it's wild a movie like Joker even got out, but that's WB bravery I guess.
Streaming services need content, an endless supply of them to keep people hooked. With everything shut down, this is something they can put together that will draw attention and keep people subbed.
No. Affleck is done as Batman, Battison will be Batman going forward.
There were rumors that WB wants to use Flashpoint to soft reboot the DCEU. So Snyder's films would all be rendered noncanon. With that in mind this seems geared towards easing the blow by letting the Snyderverse have a conclusion. WB is not going to use this version of JL to build on going forward, at least I don't think so. I see this as letting Snyder end his vision with more grace.
The biggest fear I have about it is if Zack just puts out what his original intention was for the movie... that it ends on a cliff hanger to be finished in his never will be made Justice League 2 and 3. If he does that, then yeah, critics and fans will be like, "Wait, what was the point of it then???" 4 years and 30 million for a story that has no end??? So I really hope he tweaks it so it closes out his 3 movie arc and we can all just move on with the current DCEU and hope they use Flashpoint fuckery to make everything make sense again.
The difference is the director's cut was already completed and then Ridley Scott decided to fuck himself all on his own with a horrifically truncated PG-13 cut in the vain hopes of getting more box office revenue.
You mean the same fans that raised money for suicide prevention?
Don't let a few idiots cloud your judgement on an entire fanbase. The majority have definitely been annoying, but certainly not toxic.
That was a Whedon scene, and Zack hasn't seen Whedon's cut at all. So nah. Thank God.
Here you go. They start talking about it at 03:04:40.

From WB perspective, it's probably a cheap investment to get basically what's going to be a Mandalorian-type miniseries.
They will get some subs from it, and the Snyder fans already did most of the marketing.
Now, to spun-off something from it (A new movie, a new series, etc.) would be an incredibly misguided decision considering Zack Snyder was one of the key reasons they had to rethink their whole Cinematic Universe plans. (Alongside Kevin Tsujihara and the like)

Well, let's see where this rabbit hole leads to.
A trainwreck would still be entertaining to see I guess.

Isn't that saying the exact opposite? The movie WILL contain Darkseid. Although it'd just be a teaser, since the plan had been for the movie to be part 1 setting up Darkseid in a sequel.
I would trust Ridley Scott to fix a movie rather than Zack fucking Snyder
So... they intend on shoving Affleck back in the batsuit? Getting a mustache-less Cavill back in? Because they still intended and needed to do reshoots prior to his departure, and before Whedon had to radically rework the film.
I mean, even in the far chance that Zack Snyder has been studying how to do storytelling, and how to create more relatable characters, I'd reckon there is only so much he can do with existing footage in a new framing.
At best he will be able to capture the original angst of his intended Justice League film, at worst he will double it down.
Or better yet, we could spam Disney to get a redo of 2 without Johnson, and then a rework of 3 that would actually work after a second film that does what it's supposed to.
Also something to think about in terms of why would they spend up to 30 mil to do this... WB/HBO can spend 30 mil to get 6 weeks worth of content out of a movie/series ORRRR spend 100 mil to make a new show that can take up the same time. And since they can't exactly shoot new things right now, this is a win for them.
Jesus at this pearl clutching. Snyder gets a chance to finish a film that he couldn't complete due to a family tragedy and his fans are happy about this.
But no, this is some sort of ominous harbinger of things to come. Let's get a grip here.
It's going to be a problem, finishing it properly.
If it was released as a weird thing, mixed with animatics and storyboards, people could still argue that if it was finished, it would have been the best movie ever, and continue to live online as a sort of legend.
Now that they are going to finish it, effects, actors and everything, there is no excuse for it to be bad. And, dear reader, it's still going to be a Zack Snyder movie.
