Zack Snyder Reveals His Original Plans for 'Justice League'

[MenacingMonk]

Come on, bruh. You still putting it against the Marvel movies. We never had a movie where the antagonist found an item they were searching for in a single movie? Plus this was going to be a 2 part movie with each probably being as long as BvS (directors cut) which was well over 2 hours which is enough time two explain boomtubes and motives. The seeds for the Injustice storyline was already planted in BvS and would've been fleshed out over JL part 1&2.
Injustice had two hit games and I'm sure that the vast majority that played them were not comic book heads. With that you got people already familiar with the story and they'll explain it to their friends or whoever, or people that don't know it will look it up because you know Snyder or someone will bring it up in interviews leading up to the movie's release.

And by the way, I liked BvS. Was it perfect? No, Doomsday should've been shown earlier maybe in hibernation and then have Lex awaken him. Also the dude from Ant-Man should've been playing Lex.

World building isn’t “Marvel formula.” Star Wars, Godfather, Harry Potter, LOTR followed the world building formula. They just weren’t as extensive as Marvel.

Look at how much JL and BVS were shyt on because cats were due to clusterfukks.

BVS DC was 3 hours. You can’t have every movie 3+ hours in this day and age.

I enjoyed MOS, BVS DC and JL. My love for comic books appreciates them, but I understand why people disliked them. Your love of comic books is really blinding you, dude.

Naw they don't have to follow the Marvel movie formula. What Synder was cooking up for the JL movies was like it was ripped from the comics. IIRC, they introduced Darkseid at the end of issue 1 of the 52 Justice League. I liked what he did with MOS & BvS so I would be all aboard his original Justice League plan

Y'all keep saying this and look where DC is compared to Marvel. They chose to go full speed ahead and failed. Sounding like the Cleveland Browns saying they don't have follow the Patriots. You don't have to follow but you don't have to win either

It's not even a Marvel formula it's just basic story telling. You have a large group of characters so take your time and introduce them so there's more weight to it when you bring them all together. You can't drop Iron Man, Captain America, and then the Avengers right after. It's common sense.

You’re assuming everyone watches all the Marve movies
I haven’t...don’t know shyt about Thor when I watched the first Avengers movie

Didn’t decrease my enjoyment of it

I didn’t watch Thor either, but I wasn’t watching Avengers for him either. I did for the characters I did watch their movies.

You are still missing the point. You know who all the Avengers were from comics and cartoons. That’s why you cared to watch the movie. You weren’t starting from zero even if you had never watched every movie.

I know Thor is a nikka with a hammer
I never read a Thor comic
I know about as much as the average movie goer

You don’t need an entire solo film to introduce him
That’s fukking ridiculous

Silver Surfer and Black Panther were both introduced without solos. But one of those franchises took the time to properly establish the world the character was coming into in one movie while the other floundered.

You already admit you don’t know Thor so if course you don’t care if he’s established first. The character you do care about you want to see them done right so their character resonants.

Characters are more than just one dude. It’s how they fit into the larger story being told( Lois Daily Planet etc). You don’t need every character in JL introduced in solos but you do need to establish the world they are stepping into. And that’s easier when you flesh out the story in multiple movies.

2nd reboot in 5 years, coming off a shytty sequel that killed its own cinematic universe, that made more domestically and internationally than the previous series while having a smaller budget, with the best reviews since Spider-Man 2, starring an actor that people love in the role. So, no.

yet it made less than a movie like Aquaman and Venom made the same amount as it also so hmm I'm about to say Venom killed Spidey at his own shyt

Venom didn't cost much to make either. No Downey money.

And Spiderverse is the best Spider-Man movie since Spider-Man 2. Sony was needed. Sorry Marvel Stanley.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Y'all keep saying this and look where DC is compared to Marvel. .

Yeah, secondary characters like Aquaman making $1.1 billion. How will DC survive

 

[Supa]

That's not the point and you know it.

Aquaman succeeding is basically as a stand alone movie which is what we were saying they needed to do at the beginning.

They completely botched the universe because the two most important movies were trash and left them in limbo with no direction.

They have a direction. They good. You keep bringing up what they could have done years ago, try living in the present. them mid 90s Batman joints were fukking horrible, well Batman & Robin was for sure. Imagine if Nolan was just like "nah, Batman is ruined, can't do it"

 

[Still FloW]

nikkas still crying they need 100 movies to explain shyt ??? i can see why marvel films are popular to the masses.. you nikkas are certified retards.. they should get an inspector to give yall safety hats so you clowns dont choke on your keyboards while typing.

grown ass men crying they need more explanation from shyt that can be understood through context.. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i knew the american education system was in the shytter. but DAMN who knew you nikkas was retard RETARDS

go eat your hearts out to ''why gamorra'' lmaooooooooooooo oscar worthy dialogue

Affleck and Cavill still on board?

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Affleck and Cavill still on board?

Affleck was an older Batman. No problem with him being recast. Matt Reeves wanna do his own thing. Cavill, I don't know. Obviously Momoa and Margot Robbie and Gal Gadot are around for the foreseeable future.

I don't see how the actors leave and they're good

They still gotta scrap a lot of the BS Snyder did.

Bringing up Venom and Aquaman

That international box office is so relevant now

I'm talking about live-action up to that point

 

[LordDeathwatch]

This shyt messy AF. :WhoaP:

Based on the information disclosed by Snyder, do you think, given the same circumstances, that his vision would have been better than the films we received?

Same family loss but not pushed out & replaced with all the re-writes.
