god, i'm so sorry (superhero-comicbook nonsense)

this is terrible but also hilarious and I have to respect the sheer laboriousness of making it happen

would be lying if I said I won’t watch the entire thing to feed my already too-detailed and too-often-explicated Hypothesis of Zack Snyder as Perfect Avatar of American Bro Horny-for-Power Energies (now all the more easily contrasted with Whedon’s milquetoast 90’s “surface feminist/barely submerged extremely conventional dad hornyist”)

It’s an experiment to get new home video release dollars out of 1/4th of a big-budget production

If it works, maybe every movie can be made out of reconstituted FX shots!

This is going to rule even if it sucks and just makes me all the sadder we never got NWR’s Wonder Woman or Batgirl.

I mean, far more likely that if this is successful, directors won’t get final cut but will be allowed to put out director’s cuts a year or two after sales across various platforms have died down for every big or disappointing film.

There’ll be as many versions of every tentpole as there are of Blade Runner.

I thought the curse of the DVD “unrated and extended” cut was over.

I’m worried the involvement of HBO and a bunch of other people will lead to us not getting the absolute X-Men: Dark Pheonix-level shlockfest I’m hoping for. I want this thing to be unimaginably shitty and weird in an entertaining way.

bvs was the only good recent superhero movie

don’t worry, I don’t think talent is flowing from HBO to Warner as much as it is from AT&T down

i always assumed that snyder got the terrible idea to make jimmy olsen a cia agent from the jj script that made lex luthor a cia agent

man the jj script had superman’s suit be a weird symbiote goop nanotech suit and then they actually sort of did that this season on supergirl lol
