If I was, why would I have needed you to send me Zardoz? I would have watched it before I sent it to you.
Which is all fine and plausible, except that we are all Gary Rhodes.
Even... YOU.

I LOVED IT!!!!!
YEEEEAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
(Yes that's right! I watched it BEFORE those others things you told me I had to watch! Yeah! What ya gonna do?! WHAT YA GONNA DO?!?!?! True Friend me a PofP Predaking?! To mess up my scale-mojo?! I DON'T THINK SO! I DON'T THINK THAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!)
ahem
YEAH I LOVED IT!
I thought the way they brought Superman back was... odd and unconvincing. But the characters are all cast really well. The story wasn't bad, building to something bigger (Darkseid). The Batfleck is awesome. Superman was awesome. Gabot is THE SEXIEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD, and a VERY convincing Wonder Woman. Bit odd they didn't refer to her as 'Wonder Woman', nor the team as 'The Justice League'. It's not as good as the Avengers movies, but it was a good effort. I enjoyed Cyborg after initially thinking I would miss Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter. They all look great together. Yeah, pleased. When's Justice League 2 out? I know it'll never happen (I'm fanwanking into a tissue as I type) but, imagine an Avengers Justice League crossover movie!!!!!

I'm glad you liked it. I thought it was great. Infact is made me want to go back and rewatch the other DC universe films. I can't wait for Aquaman. The future of this shared universe seems odd. They seem to have given up on the team idea and are veering away from Superman & Batman, but have a dozen other properties in development. Look at this lot: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_Extended_Universe?wprov=sfla1 |

I can see why people are calling for a reboot. The five films that make up this universe are disjointed and don't flow well as a series. There was no overarching plan like there was with MCU phase one, and too many direction shifts. Too many attempts to find the killer app, like Batman getting a versus Superman film before having his own introduction. They kept going for the title fight without the supporting card build up.
Thing is, if you reboot you risk losing the one really strong thing that's come out of it all - Wonder Woman.

Gabot as Wonder Woman blew me away in this film. A very strong performance. I really did believe she was centuries old. I'd never really considered Wonder Woman as cool.. until now.
And yes, one does get the overall sense that DC is, perhaps, trying too hard to either compete with or catch up with Marvel.
And the best way to achieve that is-
JUSTICE LEAGUE 2 AND THEN A JUSTICE LEAGUE/AVENGERS CROSSOVER MOVIE!!!!!

Snyder cut is on everybody.
Coming to HBO Max (do we have that in the UK? If not I wonder who'll pick it up? Sky Atlantic normally get HBO stuff, right?) Reputed $30m invested.
Hopefully they'll manage to remove Whedon's horrible sticky fingerprints from all over it.

I just watched JL on Netflix. I mean its mildly diverting, but not worth so much energy expended. I cant imagine much will change that. Certainly not doubling its running time.
Though in fairness Im okay with anything that gives me a bit more Batfleck.

What's the thirty million for? Are they doing reshoots?

Yes.
Snyder hadn't finished shooting. Its why when anyone talked about a Snyder cut it annoyed me, it didn't exist.

Oh cool. I quite enjoyed that film. I'm sure I bought the Blu-ray. I'm up for a revised version.

JL bored me to tears. Not fussed about more of it.
I did enjoy BVS, even though it was rubbish. Is the extended version any good?

Generally, I find extended versions of films are always inferior. There are usually good reasons why things were cut in the first place.
