"The COVID-19 pandemic very nearly derailed plans for Zack Snyder's Justice League"

I thought part of the reason was the pandemic that this was getting made. Could be wrong though.

@bkmeijer - I think she means in hindsight - that certain parties involved in finishing the VFX stuff maybe weren’t prepared to risk their staff’s safety.

This might be the first time that fans on social media have created a movement to support a director in simply putting out his vision of something instead of trying to get him to change it to fit their idea of what it should be.

I could be wrong though...

@ElJefe - A comparison that's often brought up is the richard donner cut of superman II, though it was released in 2006, when social media wasn't exactly as important as today, and I never particularly followed that so I don't know how many fans were excited to hear about it or were asking for it. But if you're talking only about social media being used to get a director's movie out there, then yes, I also can't think of anything else (though he also changed some things for the fans obviously, like the general being martian manhunter).

@ElJefe - Blade Runner maybe. It was a flop in in cinemas that became a cult hit amongst fans.
There was no internet, but there were conventions and comic shops and fan magazines. Soon enough people started to hear about the theatrical version not being the director's true vision and the existence of a "Unicorn Cut".

Just like the Snyder Cut, the fans wanted to see the Unicorn version and demand started to rise. Eventually we got the Director's Cut (the first time I remember ever seeing a director's cut of anything).

There was even a "workprint" version released on DVD years later (the original 'Unicorn Cut'). Would be neat to see a workprint of the original Snyder Cut at some point too.

@GwenLantern - I’ve never heard of that! I’ll have to look it up. Thanks!

I like the term “unicorn cut” lol

I wasn’t really feeling any excitement for this - my momentum was just swaying happily for those who wanted the film, and I was just gonna be happy to be along for the ride and enjoy a new CBM at the very least.

However, my buddy got to watch this early last night. This is a guy that thought MOS was mediocre and BVS was shit... So when he messaged me last night and told me he had a blast watching this - I’ll be lying if I’m not a little excited now.

Could just be he went in with low expectations and came out pleasantly surprised - but it’s definitely gonna be interesting to see more reactions come out!

@Se4M4NSt4ine - I was supposed to have a screener for this movie this past Saturday but I had to work nights.
But my friend saw that night and he told me, “Joe I know you love man of Steel, just like me. Well this movie is waaay better than that movie”

My friend also didn’t like BvS, other than Batman warehouse scene.

I’m hyped for this movie

@Se4M4NSt4ine - Can’t trust early screeners...Just can’t...There’s a hype factor there from being given the chance to watch a film early...Makes it feel like it’s more special than it would otherwise be...

Early reviews is another thing...In general over the most recent years of releases they almost always lean extra positive...Yet when the movie actually drops it turns out to be, well, not very good...This is why I’ve conditioned myself to absolutely temper my expectations when it comes to these things...

All that being said, if this movie ends up steering closer to MoS than BvS I’ll be perfectly happy with it...

@vegetaray - I totally understand that yeah, but my buddy is a journalist who reviews movies and books for a living.

He was one of the few early screeners that slated BVS when everyone was singing and dancing long before the inevitable happened... so I do trust his judgment to a degree - plus he’s one of the most miserable bastards I’ve ever met, so if he walked away satisfied I’m optimistic 😂

@JoJo1982 - I’m just wanting to get hold of it myself and see what’s what at this rate!

OT I just got a pretty big spoiler for FATWS and I'm not in a good mood. Avoid social media.

@Blergh - it mostly happened bc HBOMAX needed some more content to help compete with Disney plus and Netflix

The VFX company I work for worked on JL. Time really is the determining factor as to whether it looks good. The money usually finds itself, but you always run out of time.
