Not giving the fans what they want, especially when it doesn’t inconvenience them in anyway, is pretty lame. Besides, the Justice League movie they ended up giving us was so bland and safe that I’d take anything over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think very many people wanted that. That was more a case of them trying to give what they believed fans wanted. In the case of the Snyder Cut movement, people are asking to see an alternate version of an already existing film. WB wouldn’t even have to dump anymore money into the thing. Besides, the JL movie that we ended up getting was already an attempt by WB to give people what they wanted. A lighter tone? Check. The John Williams theme? Check. Brighter color pallete? Check. A more upbeat and traditional Superman? Check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I have the balls to @ people when trying to diss them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans are just taking Snyder and Co's word for it that it's so great. I don't think WB wants to risk that. They've got a good thing going. It's best for them to continue the forward momentum.

eddyxx Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 So I would kill for Ludwig Gorransson to score a James Cameron film. I'm listening to his score for Black Panther again and it's such a cut above the majority of MCU scores. It's such a shame that Jimbo would have to do a film for this to happen.

The demand for it is clearly there, and it would be a perfect hook to convince people to sign up for HBO Max. If they’re hoping that people will eventually move on and forget about it, well, it’s been two years and the movement is stronger than ever. How many years did it take to release the Donner cut of Superman 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL should have never been greenlighted after BvS was so divisive. But Tsujihara had ulterior motive in greenlighting it. Basically DCEU as a universe was in terrible shape at that point. At least individual directors like Jenkins/Wan and now Philips ensured the brand still has strong value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were articles after BvS released around JL being canned and instead a Batman Solo pic would be greenlit as Batfleck was received well despite horrible reception of BvS. But There were other articles around WB not delaying JL to ensure Tsujihara gets his bonus !!!! Quote AT&T and Time Warner are currently in the middle of a $85 billion dollar deal that they were hoping would close by the end of the year. One source told The Wrap that WB CEO Kevin Tsujihara and President Toby Emmerich “wanted to preserve their bonuses they would be paid before the merger,” and were worried that “if they pushed the movie, then their bonuses would have been pushed to the following year and they might not still be at the studio.” https://batman-news.com/2017/11/29/justice-league-drama-zack-snyder-warner-bros/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s true that Tsujihara wouldn’t allow the movie to be pushed back, but it was already just a couple of weeks away from filming when BvS was released. Flat out cancelling the movie would’ve looked terrible to investors. They couldn’t do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanic2187 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Actually they can release Synder's cut of JL as fathom event. Fathom event has been doing well. See how original batman was released under fathom event. It did well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
