I'm surprised to see so many here argue for recasting. Most opinions on twitter seem to be saying the opposite, that it'd be disrespectful to recast. Personally I agree that they should just cast someone else. Just having him die offscreen seems kind of silly Retro Futurist posted:If they recast him, I feel really bad for whoever gets that role. Everyone is going to dislike them at first, it's a no win They'll hate him right until the movie starts, that's how these things usually go.

GJ obviously means a great deal to them considering all the projects he has ongoing and being one of the biggest names in comics, so its as unsurprising as it is disappointing they try to cover his arse. In addition to Ray's thing there were also several women accusing him of inappropriate behavior on IG and twitter, for whatever that's worth.

Right. Josstice league was Geoffs second big chance at becoming a big shot in DC films and he blew it again, and his comic output has been lacklustre (the watchmen stuff was utterly forgettable, and the three jokers doesn't fill me with confidence either). They have little to lose by just booting him to the curb. Unless of course he's got some dirt on important folks.

Cartridgeblowers posted:Yes that guy was me Well for starters, he's a black athlete that becomes disabled, and considering a large portion of his self esteem and the esteem and value of others is tied into his athletic prowess and how he now has to adjust having lost that and how to come to terms with being differentially abled and that his value is not tied to how much many touch downs he can score, I'd say there's lots of fertile ground to explore. Ray has talked about how important it was for him to not have his character just be an empty catchphrase, and he said he felt he had a lot of agency in how to develop the character, so I'm pretty excited for that Also of some interest, dc fandome has a little documentary up about The Dark Knight Trilogy, if that's your thing https://www.dcfandome.com/video/insiderverse/5f343a57ad87080017244add I'm 15 minute in and it's pretty good!

I dunno.

Apparently Mamoa's support of Ray caught not only WB off guard, but also his own team https://twitter.com/UberKryptonian/status/1308890346068246528?s=20 In Snyder Cut news, Zack is getting the whole crew back together for additional shoots https://twitter.com/DiscussingFilm/status/1308888694875729920?s=20 As an interesting sidenote: All the stories about how Zack had gotten some 30 million to "finish" the incomplete Snyder cut were inaccurate. As it turns out, His old "cut" at 214 minutes was practically finished with some vfx missing, that extra money was for Zack to shoot scenes that for some reason or another he didn't plan or wasn't allowed to include in his planned theatrical release. Basically, it seems he's getting the opportunity to actually make the film he wanted to begin with, before he got reigned in by the WB execs who got cold feet from the divisive BvS reviews. https://twitter.com/markhughesfilms/status/1308901978425229317?s=20 Edit: Forgot about this one too https://twitter.com/screenrant/status/1308401518756929539?s=20 250 000 raised for Suicide prevention.

Vince MechMahon posted:The VFX are what wasn't done. That means he was most likely already at picture lock though. Which I'm surprised about because it contradicts all the talk of it being an assembly cut before. The only people talking about it being an "assembly cut" where people with no actual insight into the production and were pulling things straight out their rear end. The ones that were involved with the film all said the thing was "basically done", up to and including the director himself.

Arist posted:If there was still tons of unfinished VFX then the movie wasn't "basically done." It's not even "basically done" now, considering they're doing reshoots. This is quibbling about semantics, but the previz and color grading was all done,, and so was a good chunk of the VFX. We know that a lot of the vfx was done because we've seen released images that shows this. The audio score was probably the most incomplete part of the cut. Either way you cut it (heh) that's mostly done. The argument about the Snyder Cut has gone from "Oh it doesn't exist" to "There was just an assembly cut with no effects done at all) to "Ok so there was a cut, but all the vfx was missing". BrianWilly posted:...Which ended up being a bald-faced lie, considering that the film is being worked on even now, four months after the announcement, up to and including outright shooting more scenes, and won't be finished until some indeterminate time next year. Yeah, "basically done." As much as you want that to be true Brian, it simply isn't. First of all, Restarting the production, getting in touch with all the postproduction houses, checking in to see if said houses still have they still had the assets they were working on (most did, but not all, which means some assets need to be redone) and they had to redo Steppenwolf entirely, which all takes time in the best of times, never mind that they didn't have time to get that started before the pandemic hit. Second, regarding the new scenes being shot, if you bothered to read my post or check the tweets I linked. McCloud posted:
https://twitter.com/markhughesfilms/status/1308902299801210880?s=20 you'd see these aren't reshoots, they're shooting entirely new scenes, there's a big difference there. The "Snyder Cut" is what was intended to have a theatrical release, but the ZSJL is building on that and creating new footage that wasn't going to be included in the SC, and that's only possible because HBO gave him a blank check. Or you can keep believing the conspiracy theory that he was lying all this time, and that everyone who confirmed the cut was real were co-conspirators that fed the flames to own the

The Snyder Cut and Zack Snyders Justice League are 2 different things. The Snyder cut is the movie that was meant for theatrical release, and barring some post- visual fx it was done. Zack Snyders Justice League is likely the movie he intended in the first place, before the studio got cold feet from the BvS reviews and mandated he turn the two parter into one film. It's basically what he envisioned in the first place, and also why the price tag is 70 million instead of 10million or whatever it would take to just finish the special effects. Karloff posted:As Snyder Batman kills it's weird that the Joker, of all people, is still alive and seemingly at large so it will be funny if the Leto Joker is on screen for thirty seconds just so Batman can headshot him in a sort of "always meant to tie that knot" kind of way. That would be at odds with his arc at the end of BvS. But it would also be hilarious.
