The International Reformed Church of Zack Snyder

[THE KILL]

Terry Gilliam

FWIW, I think the story is that Terry Gilliam wanted to do it as a 12-part miniseries, and that idea got shot down. He just knew better than to try and cram it all into one movie. Didn't know about Aronofsky, though.

Yeah. Word is Aronofsky refused to do anything less than a trilogy.

Zack Snyder's ultimate vision for JL is an imax screen (4:3 ratio - like old tvs) in black and white. That tidbit of info helps me understand that his aesthetic is rooted in humorless monolithic trash and it's impossible to relate to his work as a human with emotions.

[ThePhillyExperiment]

I'd only want to see a 4-hour JL in black & white if Mister Mxyzptlk popped up and turned it into Ed Wood.

So Batman Returns, basically?

I would legit rather watch Zakk Wylde's Justice League

[FVBTVS]

i mean, tons of middling talent jerk offs down here do events where they screen an old movie and then just play their eurorack patches and act like the wizard of oz

4 hours of zakk wylde soloing over justice league sounds sick

[FVBTVS]

Had you gotten to make further ‘Justice League’ movies, what would have happened in them?

It’s the fall of Earth, when Superman succumbs to anti-life. And then sending Flash back in time to change one element so that doesn’t happen. And then the big battle where we beat him. When [the villain] Darkseid comes to Earth, in the movie that you’ll never see, the armies of Earth all unite again, as they did before. This time there would be aircraft carriers and Special Forces guys, all the armies of the world would come together, as well as [Aquaman’s fellow] Atlanteans rising out of the ocean and the Themyscirans [Wonder Woman’s compatriots] coming off their island. That was our big finale. But it’s a long drum roll and guitar solo to get there.

[Eight Bit Alien]

HAH!!

reviews are in

otherkin kid suicide notwithstanding, snyder remains unapologetically snyder

“at 242 minutes, very few of them offering much pleasure, it's nearly unendurable as a single-sitting experience”

of course I’m watching this horseshit - just need to figure out what to TELL my wife I’m watching

Zack Snyder's Justice League, when it comes to largeness, is perhaps the most in the Capital Letter Combination with several stories that make you wonder just how choosing your choices do.

Things that didn't happen are sometimes good because they make you think what it would be like if that fake thing actually wasn't fake and was real and good. When we show people a false history the people that eat the fake truth with their eyes consider what mommy asks them; sometimes mommy is happy, and sometimes she says go to room.

The movie that our talent friend Zack made is not just putting the movies with Bat Man and Diversity Robot on top of each other like a huge tower, he wants people to think that maybe the movie was their fault, and that also the actual world and not just the lying story you pay for is something people can do or make.

Bitch. Mother. Child. Lover. Quote. Buy. Print.

IN PREPARATION for this non-cinema event, I have gone ahead and watched the three-hour cut of batman vs superman. and it was... fine! I think I rated the theatrical cut 3.5 or something here, but the three hour cut was like a 6? it might have been more pleasant in non-IMAX - less sensory assault? lex luthor kinda worked in this version. not sure how much was due to the edit vs. us all getting more of a glimpse into what zuckerberg is like...

BTW I was recently on a zoom call with mark & priscilla

[Eight Bit Alien]

It was a complete fucking mess

Glad I got to see it.

[Necrometer]

I’m almost an hour in and not feeling too hot about all this!

glad to know that the meaningless boat being named COURTLANDT was some sort of easter egg

that tarkovsky tweet is gone for some reason

[Eight Bit Alien]

I don't think that's what COURTLANDT really was. The boat is just an easter egg, I think.

Pretty sure the plot of that shirt was abandoned before this movie was even filmed.

[Hunter]

I was not expecting how bad some of the CGI looked. That $70mil sure didn't go far. The 4:3 aspect ratio is ridiculous, even if it is his "vision", which was also supposedly black & white. Maybe preserving that part of his vision wasn't important to HBO Max. There's only 61 IMAX locations in the United States, so accessibility is apparently not part of his vision.

This is also correct:

[Foot Foot]

not really sure if a movie about the Super-Friends looking for cunting GameCubes needed to be the length of The Cremaster Cycle.

[FVBTVS]

i only watched like 45 minutes and its better than tenet

its going to take me a week but it seems more cohesive than the original at least
