Community Manager Water Bottle Posted July 16, 2016 Community Manager Share Posted July 16, 2016 So as someone who really dislikes BvS.....is it worth checking out the extended edition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Stingray gave it a very positive review and Goffe went from 5/10 to 8/10. Having said this, antovolk said the Extended Edition won't change people's opinions all that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaz Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 If what you hated about the theatrical version was the pacing, story elements and editing, then yes. The ultimate edition fleshes all of that out. If you hated the characters, their motivations and special effects, then no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Snyder's vision is all wrong for these movies, that there are huge problems with the story or how characters are portrayed (e.g Troll Luthor)? Don't bother with EI. Are you fond of Snyder's aesthetics, but thinks the theatrical version had some story issues that could potentially be fixed through small changes and/or additions? then you should definitely see the extended edition.

Webslinger Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I watched the extended cut yesterday, and I think it's a considerable improvement over the theatrical version. The central problems - the relentlessly dour tone, the fact that it feels like multiple movies are being crammed uncomfortably into one, and the infamous "Martha" twist - are still there, but the new additions and rearranging of scenes from the theatrical cut iron out many of the logistical problems and make the film feel surer-handed as a whole.

75Live Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I really liked the extended version. I mostly liked the original, but this definitely makes it better. However, as some have said, if you didn't like the original cut, this may make it more bearable for you, but odds are it won't sway you too much in a different direction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
