#Snyder cut

[frownyalfred]

“Everyone, this is Alfred. I work for him.” will always be the funniest throwaway line from any DCEU movie.

Giving peak “I was going to tell them this was all your idea” fall guy energy. As if going insane, trying to kill Superman, and dressing up like a Bat was somehow Alfred’s idea.

Man of Steel: Fallen Angels Theory

[thereasonsimbroke]

Zack Snyder has an unparalleled vision and attention to detail that brings every scene to life. His ability to create epic, emotionally charged moments is why he's one of the best in the business 📽️

[frownyalfred]

Can I ask your thoughts on BvS. I watched it (and man of steel) recently and absolutely hated the character assassination of Clark. And it felt like his and Bruce's enemy phase was so drawn out and ooc for Clark. Plus I don't like that they're only really friends for the last 30 mins of Clark's life but Bruce still refers to him as a friend. Their relationship just felt very hollow, but I'm curious what you have to say because I know how much you love Superbat. (Also is Justice league any good, either in general or for Superbat vibes? I haven't watched it yet)

I think Justice League (Snyder cut) makes up for that weird friendship gap well, with Bruce trying to make amends for failing Clark. They didn't have a good chance to be more than tentative allies toward the end, and JL Bruce acknowledges this well I think. A little obsessively, but that's Bruce for you.

I agree it was rough to see them be enemies for so long, without really having much of a "come to jesus" moment between them before Clark died. I much prefer the inversion, where they're friends first before becoming enemies, but that would have required several more movies.

I think BVS Clark was a faithful continuation of MOS Clark, but a lot of people didn't like that version of Clark, and that's okay too. He was distinct from the comics version in a lot of ways, trying to adapt to a darker grittier world like Snyder gave Bruce. I think it worked better for Bruce, but I could see where he was going with it. I liked the alien-ness of that Clark, and how he felt so disconnected from the world around him -- but that kind of feeling can't last for as long as it did without changing Superman's hopeful outlook in major ways, yeah.

I think that's where the post-BVS superbat fics really shine, trying to reconcile that Bruce with a Superman he failed, and them finding hope together. Snyder was trying to show us that Bruce's hope is what brings the Justice League into being, but that hope centers around Clark, from what we can see -- or at least, the idea of him.

Nuidis Vulko, Justice League: The Snyder Cut (2021)

[toweroftickles]

Unrelated to the main purpose of my blog, but if you’ll permit an excursion on this mini-crusade for a brief moment….can I just say that I really, REALLY don’t understand the fiery animosity that Rebel Moon is stoking across the internet?

I mean, yeah…heartbreakingly, Rebel Moon is not great. To say that I was not disappointed would be a lie. At the same time, it’s certainly nothing terrible. It never bored me, and it doesn’t commit any new sins…all of the story and structural problems in Rebel Moon are also present in Dune Part 1 and MI: Dead Reckoning Part 1 (especially Dune). But those apparently get a free pass. It’s no more generic & ripped off than any of Disney’s 2023 slate, or Percy Jackson and the JK Rowling Lawsuit, or any of the endless Oscar-bait biopics that get cranked off the printing press every December. The action was fun and the subtle backstory breadcrumbs the characters left behind were at least interesting enough to make me give Part 2 a chance, which is more than can be said for any recent Star Wars project. It’s all perfectly “fine.” So why is everyone on YouTube and Reddit and Letterboxd acting like the sci-fi genre just experienced the Second Coming of L. Ron Hubbard? What’s so offensive here?

Ever since the Snyder Cut came out, it really seems like there’s been a concentrated online push to delegitimize Zack Snyder as a filmmaker and paint his fans as psychopathic idiots, and it all feels so needlessly aggressive. I can’t help but think that the bile toward Rebel Moon has festered at least partly from factors outside the movie itself.

Overall, it’s a decent enough table-setting episode, and if the meal to come with Part 2 in April is worth it, then that’s fine with me. This is only half the story; treat it as such.

It’s like…sheesh, calm down, people. You have Wishes and Aquaman 2s that you could be crucifying.

Also apparently in the extended director’s cut, Jimmy the Hopkins bot goes on a spiritual journey and starts living out in the woods like a feral homeless guy killing animals and shit, and FUCK YES I want to see that story.

Finally watched the Snyder Cut, have some not in order thoughts (spoilers below!)

-like 90% of the quips are gone and it works

-better color palette by far, Steppenwolf doesn’t look like hot garbage but more like a fidget spinner i once saw

-more Lois lane. Excellent choice there

-was not expecting Martian Manhunter. At all.

-u know u don’t have to play wonder woman’s theme EVERY time she’s on screen right??

-Jason Todd reference??!?

-yesssss black Superman suit

-Clark and Lois are so tender. Works very well as an extension of their relationship in the directors cut of BvS

-Iris West is a cutie

-less stupid flirting btw bats and ww. Good

-also fewer dumb flash moments

-making cyborg an emotional center of the plot was a good choice

-missed opportunity not having nightwing show up in the end apocalypse dream sequence

-but I just want proper live action nightwing in general (meaning movie adaptation ik titans was a thing lol)

-give me my sunshine-y guy who hits ppl with sticks

-my biggest gripe with this bats is the lack of robins, don’t tell me he’s been around 20 yrs and not acquired a robin or two (ya i know joker said one died but it’d be weird if it was dick so I’m reading it as being jason)

-Atlantean blood bending hmmmm

-they kept the ‘I bought the bank’ line heh heh

-kinda sad the flash sups race got cut, didn’t fit the tone but it was fun

-ok so the internet informed me that Dick is in fact the dead Robin being mentioned but I’m ignoring this because its stupid

Will I watch it again? Maybe. Currently only LOTR gets a pass to be 4 hrs long but this might actually deserve its runtime. Might.
