    Midway

    Fucking loved this. Splosions n war n shit, but pretty tastefully done and showing the Japanese side as well.

    Mandy Moore suits the 1940s aesthetic like a glove. She is gorgeous.

    No tits.

    You make one statement then contradict it in the next sentence. I’m confused

    You're a simple creature.

    Undoubtedly, but gorgeous and no tits together does not compute.

    I meant no tits shown on camera.

    She's still gorgeous.

    Oh right, cheers for clearing that up.

    Yeah I remember her being easy on the eye

    @Kirwan @raznomore

    Could not agree more. Recorded it yesterday, watched it today over many hours and just as you said Kirwan, because it's in Chapters, it made it easier to watch in more than one sitting.

    On the movie itself, wow, I thought it was brilliant. So much better than the Joss floss. Even Superman's lip looked much more natural.

    There was depth in story, depth in character and a plot that made sense.

    @Kirwan, do you know if Snyder has an involvement in the other DC Universe movies due out over the next few years?

    Nothing, unfortunately.

    @kirwan he's made a case. Most people find superman too good and too powerful. The epilogue was fantastic and that movie has to be made. We, the people who are cold on superman get to watch him as a villain and that would fucking rule.

    It’s also the most original and risky take on Batman. It shouldn’t work but it does.

    Is the Snyder cut going to be released on the big screen? Not a fan of Neon and 2.0 sound.

    It’s in the IMAX ratio, so it’s a possibility. I’d like to see it in a theatre

    One advantage of only using footage from before he grew it.

    Really? The first fight scene looked pretty similar to the original

    At the Superman statue? It was longer, and had the stupid Batman joke removed.

    A lot of different dialogue.

    The biggest praise so far...it makes sense. It reminds me to Kingdom of Heaven, famously bad movie on release...but the +3hr directors cut made list of one of the best directors cuts, I honestly believe just because all the little things they removed to make it cinema length...are all the small things that make the big things make sense

    :::

    They actually mention the flash dream sequence! Am I right they didn’t in the original

    @kirwan the best thing they removed was how Mamoa splashed backwards into the water.

    I was going to list a few things but realised it easier just to say it was great, any critiques I have would actually just be about how they could have split out some stuff and made a whole trilogy of movies, worth watching

    :::

    Only other thing I wasn’t sure about was the epilogue, it was great...but I don’t see the point In Setting stuff up they’re not going to follow through on, it’s just a tease

    What he shot was setting up a sequel though. There are plot points for a Flash film, the once planned Cyborg film, as well as at least one sequel for Justice League.

    And his arc for Superman was to end with the smiling, heroic version we all know. He was trying to tell a story about how he got there instead of starting perfect.

    And originally he was going to have an after credits scene casting a new Green Lantern.

    @kirwan 100%, i get that, its petty clear that's why they would have been shot originally, but unless theres a chance DC are going to reinstate the Snyden-verse im not sure i would have included everything in the prologue, i always had in my head this whole thing was to give the fans what they want but the prologue is just a bit of tease of something they're not going to see

    I am going to add one thing, i came out liking all the characters, even the bad guys, all the heros have sweet moments and it was clear why they were there and steppenwolf was menacing, i good bad guy and hes not even the real big bad

    Well the campaign has started for more Justices League from Synder.

    I can’t see it happening, but in a world of multiverses maybe you can have two versions at the same time.
