Yup, just throwing in fanfic theories. In this case a theory that just makes Martian Manhunter look like an asshole

@dracula - 1. Why is this article up here? But the one extensive interview where HL defends Joss Whedon is no where to be found?



And Dracula, I'm sure Zack Snyder has stolen ideas from Fans before, and I can prove it. Both for BvS and Wonder Woman. This is not the first time.

@aresww3 - dont have to prove anything I believe it. Only original idea this guy has ever had was Sucker Punch and that was crap

@dracula - lol. okay. but just in case anyone else wants to see.

SEEM FAMILIAR. BVS DOOMSDAY FIGHT DONE BETTER. AND YOU KNOW WITH HOW SNYDERS ON THE INTERNET, HE SAW THIS.


He also stole ideas for the Wonder Woman movie from THIS website.

@aresww3 - Have you seen this yet?


It makes it pretty clear what's been going on since Joss took over from Zack on JL. Even all the divorce shit from Joss' wife fits the timescale.

Zack is out on a personal vendetta. He's already killed the careers of most of the people on his hit list, but Joss Whedon is his public enemy no. 1.

It's a little bit psychotic, really. Zack won't even say Joss' name in interviews, when directly questioned about it. He'll say "That person" and insists on calling the Whedon Cut 'The Theatrical Cut".

@GwenLantern -
Not surprising. I hope he enjoys the rest of his career as it spirals down the terlet.

@dracula - sucker punch is littered with anime tropes X alice madness returns, it's hardly original just a mix and match clustercuck witch I'm afraid to say is a guilty pleasure of mine lol

Idris Elba would have been a perfect Martian Manhunter

@dracula - I think he could've done it but I'd rather see him in a role with an opportunity for more charisma. I'm excited for The Suicide Squad but it'll forever be a waste not to have made him Bronze Tiger.

Its probably gonna be a 10-second anti-Chekov's gun

@bkmeijer - Snyder skipped class the day that was discussed, but he was all in for "everything can be a metaphor"

I think Harry Lennix can be a great Martian Manhunter but heh...Not like this.


Not like this.

Lol I don't think it's ever been more obvious that MM in the DCEU was never planned. Just another Snyder retcon of Vero fan theories.
KingLeonidas
KingLeonidas - 2/22/2021, 4:33 AM
@RageDriver2401 - does Vero get story credit on the Snyder cut?
Dredd97
Dredd97 - 2/22/2021, 4:54 AM
@KingLeonidas - it [frick]ing better. If they wrote all this extra stuff, I'd hate to see what the original plan was. Yeesh
RageDriver2401
RageDriver2401 - 2/22/2021, 5:05 AM
@KingLeonidas - I doubt they'll get story credits, but I wouldn't be surprised if they put "The Snyder Cut movement" under "Associate Producers".

Snyder reading Vero comments that speculate theories and plot points better than anything he could ever come up with:
CasualAF
CasualAF - 2/22/2021, 5:19 AM
@Se4M4NSt4ine - THIS. This is the TRUE Snyder Justice League. Its a 2 year dive into the comments pretending he planned it all along. And its still gonna be awful.
OmegaBlack13
OmegaBlack13 - 2/22/2021, 5:22 AM
@Se4M4NSt4ine - This wasn't even BETTER though. Sure it could've happened in MoS and been fine, but it makes so sense in the context of what we got there and in BvS, and the fans on Vero suggesting it were also being dumb. They literally saw a black authority figure and said "Yup, Martian Manhunter in disguise".
GwenLantern
GwenLantern - 2/22/2021, 3:24 AM
So I'm assuming that this is the same scene as the Joker scene, since the Snyders have repeatedly claimed that the Joker scene was the only new scene included (with a $70 million budget, no less).

BrainySleep - 2/22/2021, 3:31 AM
He was Manhunter all along....
Demo2nd
Demo2nd - 2/22/2021, 3:34 AM
So... he just admitted that Snyder was making up stuff-up, and that General Swanwick being Martian Manhunter (along with Joker, I assume) was never in his original vision (that we were suppouse to see in 2017).

MM has lived on Earth, as a black man no less, long enough to know a big green alien will not be as well recieved as a ridiculously handsome white man who happens to be god level powerful.
dracula
dracula - 2/22/2021, 4:10 AM
@Vision85 - he is a guy who can look however he wants and has power on the same level as superman and debatably greater
Vision85
Vision85 - 2/22/2021, 4:30 AM
@dracula - sure...but as i said, hes big and green so revealing himself as a godlike scary looking alien over a god like handsome one might get a slightly different reaction and having chosing to hide as a black man he will know full well how prejudiced people can be towards their own species.
Tony93
Tony93 - 2/22/2021, 9:08 AM
@Vision85 - There was actually a super subtle hint to him being MM in Man of Steel. (If Zack really did plan it since then) When they were interrogating him, A shot of them both looking at each other from opposite sides of the mirror (same coin). He was looking through the glass at him but we see Supermans reflection back at him, an Easter egg that an alien looking back at him that can change into him

i got nothing else

Now that my son’s 15 he’s getting more into watching these movies ... we watched MoS because he’s heard about the Snyder Cut and wants to rewatch the movies leading up to it now that he’s older. During the Zod fight when Zod was at his full Earth power-up he said, “Superman should kill him. He’s just as strong as him and he’s never going to stop. This guy is never going to stop trying to takeover the planet.”

So different than my old school comic book mentality of how superheroes handle things - based on the entertainment he’s consumed while growing up. When Supes snapped Zod’s neck he was like, “Yeah, I thought so.”

Anyway, it was interesting rewatching with the notion that General Swanwick is MM. It’s obvious he wasn’t always ... but it does give his scenes a new dynamic.

Dredd97 - 2/22/2021, 4:55 AM
Yeeeah he was never planned to be Martian Manhunter lol it's never been more evident. Well the Vero Cut should be interesting. Too bad it's 4 hours long

Watching the Snyder lover boys try to spin this in a logical way is laughable. MM was worthless this whole time just chilling on Earth, come on Zack!

There's an alternate timeline where Zack got to finish Justice League in 2017, and none of this kinda stuff was in that cut.
Things like the Martian Manhunter reveal reek of a petty "look what you missed out on, look what you could have had" reaction to gain support and stroke the ego.
