A Synder Cut of Justice League may be on the way as fans eargerly await the truth behind this rumour.
It has been said that Zack Snyder has held a screening for Warner Bros. executives of this infamous cut meaning a public release may be on the cards.
Ever since the theatrical release of the movie in 2017 fans absolutely tore this movie to shreds.
Once Snyder departed from the project numerous changes we made and we were left with something so terribly bad that we’d rather soon forget it.
Heroic Hollywood added fuel to the fire by saying
Something is happening with Snyder’s cut of the film and discussions are currently underway. [We] do not know if the Snyder Cut is preparing for a special one-time-only fan screening or whether the film will be released on either streaming platforms or home media. However, a theatrical release is highly unlikely.
This news has also been confirmed by other film websites so the stories seem to match up. It does seem as thou a screening has taken place.
Fans hold out hope that this Snyder cut will be released for the fans.
But we ask ourselves.
Will the Snyder Cut Be Worth the Hype?
In a simple answer. No. Let me explain why.
Personally, for me, knowing how much DC have shot themselves in the foot over the years I can’t see it making a huge difference.
Whatever the cut is I know it will be better than the original version so that’s the only silver lining I see here.
But as far as it being a good movie, well, you can only work with the footage you’ve got and that was mostly terrible.
A few minutes of scenes here and there will certainly not change the core of the feature.
Whilst the movie was changed considerably after Snyder’s departure this is still the same man responsible for Batman V Superman.
Snyder is a competant director but when it comes to making a superhero movie the lines blur somewhat.
If Batman V Superman had been a success or indeed a good movie the hype would be justified.
It certainly feels as thou the campaign to release the cut is a thinly veiled optimism of DC fans hoping to see a decent movie in their lifetime.
With a petition of 180,000 signatures and 100,000 likes on Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot’s #ReleasetheSynder cut posts there is interest there.
But are those numbers really enough to justify a re-release of the movie?
It would have served as a good bonus feature but as a standalone re release i’m not sure. Perhaps a streaming service option would be the better direction to go in.
Anyways, that’s my opinion. The contrast opposite of our own Frank Mengarelli who enjoyed Justice League!
Frank gave it a STAGGERING 4-Star review that festers on our site to this day.
