we’re now living in an era when it’s generally assumed that men can do at least a tiny bit of parenting if they have to. It’s harder to accept the idea that three cool and likable middle-aged guys would have no idea how to change a diaper or buy a baby bottle.

I wonder what the people who have been spending money on DC Universe will think of it...

That whole run was tremendous - Final Crisis, RIP, Return of Bruce Wayne, Batman and Robin and the like.

The only reason I hesitated making the comparison is because Man of Steel is no Matrix.

They’re in for a very rude awakening when they find out that the releasethesnydercut douchebags don’t amount to anything close to $30 million in HBO Max subscriptions.

Grant Morrison did. And to prepare for his run, he supposedly read every Batman comic ever written - at least within the mainstream DC continuities. So he probably had a good idea of what did or didn’t jive with Batman’s “established persona”. He definitely did a deep dive into Batman’s history because his Batman

I never saw Justice League when it came out but it was playing on TV this weekend and I had nothing else to do so watched it.

Not infuriated at a Billion dollar company spending money to let someone finish a movie their way just because its Zack Snyder.

Does that make BvS the Matrix: Reloaded of the series?

...Man, does that ever line up.

The Snyder Cut’s going to come out, and take me fishing, and it’ll say “I love you” to me, and we’ll be a family again!

No worries, bruh. The $150 million they’re inevitably going to dump down this money hole is going toward throwing a sweet kegger at Zack’s house while all the libs stand outside and cry. 

To be fair, Batman was not supposed to die in Final Crisis. He was supposed to die in Batman RIP but Editorial nixed that idea and forced Morrison to change it. But on the positive side we got The Return of Bruce Wayne, which was where Darkseid’s whole “Turn Batman into a bomb by sending him back in time” plan was

But it already existed! Just them announcing that this was coming out meant all the stuff about there being any work or spending involved in this was all lies! All the Snyderbros said so after this thing was announced! Remember?

So they must be doing reshoots, right? Are they getting the cast back? Is Affleck really going to put the batsuit on again? Is Cavil going to regrow his moustache just so they can CGI it out again? Are they going to recast the Flash because of Ezra Miller choking people and for continuity edit all the Miller footage

“But Snyder already owns the rights to it so it won’t cost anything!”

I didn’t realize that pretending to kill off Batman and then having him turn up alive in a cave was its own trope.

Surely the primary audience for this is also the one most likely to pirate it rather than sign up to HBO.

No doubt he’ll try to work in an homage to Batman’s death from Final Crisis like he originally planned because it involved Batman shooting Darksied with a gun.

I’m happy for the people who genuinely enjoy Snyder’s DC movies and are finally getting the Justice League they were excited for years ago.
