Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted March 29, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 29, 2021 You just knew they were trying to drag the movie out to reach that 4 hour mark as soon as they did a slow-mo scene of Lois Lane walking out of a coffee shop. Quote

It would of made a fine 4 part tv series, but would have made a great 2 hour film. The question should be why is there 4 hours worth of footage. I know some people have claimed it was originally going to be 2 films, which is bullshit, they were never filming 2 movies back to back and there certainly isn’t 2 movies of plot here. I think WB wanted it split up to release but there’s no structure (because Snyder can’t pace for shit) in there to split it into 4 parts, even the segments/title cards that are in there at the minute feel added in at random, there’s no way you could break that film down into 4 three act structures. Imagine watching an episode and 1/4th of it is Barry going for a job in a pet shop. They could easily chop 40-50min out of it and make a far better film Quote

My guess is there is probably double that. Remember, this is what he cut down from. It's edited so there is still more footage on the cutting room floor. And the question has to be when you have a 4 hour film which feels bloated, what the hell was actually cut out and how bad must it have been Quote

Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted March 30, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 30, 2021 The Snyder cut is ok. It's definitely an improvement on BvS and the Wheldon version. However, 4 hours for an ok film is hilarious and highlights how badly they buggered up the whole thing by rushing into the Justice League, as the first two hours are essentially backstory on the lesser known characters. The first two hours are badly needed but, in the end, the story just isn't particularly interesting. The 30 minute epilogue is absolute shite. Quote
Mr_Danger Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 That epilogue was like one of those fan made YouTube Batman and Joker films that people on Twitter always cite as “this is my Batman/Joker”. Obviously a really well produced one. Yet there’s still this part of me that wants to see what could have been. Sadist. Quote

Merzbow Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 Just started I Am Not Okay with This from the same guy that wrote The End of the Fucking World, I wouldn't say it's quite as good but it's a decent coming of age/superpowered comic adaptation. Sophia Lillis really keeps it going, she's pretty great. Quote

Shes in a really great film called Uncle Frank with Paul Bettany, which is well worth watching. Quote
Merzbow Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 I do get the feeling that the writer is basically writing himself as the teenage boy in both shows/comics tho.. Quote
Paid Members quote the raven Posted April 9, 2021 Paid Members Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Ok I have a real issue with falcon and the winter solider it’s going to contain spoilers including this weeks eps so I will stick it the box Spoiler So everyone is horrified that zemo killed the scientist, and that new cap kills the terrorist/freedom fighter.....however in eps1 Sam killed like 20 guys kicking them out of helicopters, blowing up said helicopter. Shooting them dead . They all killed a bunch of guys outside the storage locker in lots of different ways no one cares. It’s bugging the shit outa me now.
