You Get to Choose Mr Snyder's Next Flim and it's a Remoke!

What film are choosing and why?
For me I am choosing Boyhood because I did not like the movie and I think Mr Snyder would do a cool job with it

Justice League set photos?

Can I find high-res or reasonably high-res pics of Steppenwolf's base anywhere? I'd like to make a backdrop for my Hot Toys. Something like this would be good, but without the characters in it. Also looking for something similar in the Knightmare world.

4 hr cut of both of them as one movie? yea that would bang.

I felt both parts were lacking something, the first one had too little action while the second has too little plot. Although I'm much satisfied with part 2 since it's literally just a battle for whole second half of the movie, and those flashbacks were looking dope af.

I also disliked how easy it was for Korra to find and recruit the other rebels, although I'm not too sure how it could've been done better.

I also wanted the conflict to be more substantial and overall more involved with other worlds but ig i could enjoy it for what it was rather than what i wanted.

Rebel moon

Zack should not do EVERYTHING in a movie.

I watched rebel moon and you know what, I enjoyed it for what it is.

If I go by the criticism of the movie, I just feel Zack should not be doing too much on a film. He writes the movie, he is a producer of both movies, and then he directs it as well? I just have 2016 Ben Affleck flashbacks, the only thing that he is missing is acting on the movie. Ben tried to do all that and it drove him to a depression, well one of the things (the state of DC films at the time and bad reviews did not help, as well as divorce). Look, I just hate the negative press that he is getting, whether deserved or not, I just want his films to do better.

The Final Snyder DC Story

I have decided to conclude the snyderverse with Godzilla becoming a threat to humanity & the Justice League battles the monster at multiple locations including Aquaman being destroyed by the atomic breath explosion underwater in the ocean, but the final battle is when Godzilla destroys them all…

I'm sorry if this has been asked before...

But does anyone know when the actual R rated cuts are coming out? I'd like to watch Rebel Moon 1&2 but, honestly, I'd prefer to watch the full uncut films. I don't really feel like wasting four hours on inferior versions of the film.

I hope the reactions to REBEL MOON do teach Snyder a few lessons about his movies going forward

And the lessons are:
1. Stop agreeing to release inferior products to what your original intention is
If Zack Snyder pitches an R Rated project to a studio like NETFLIX and they say "Cool. Make that your director's cut, but make us a more audience-friendly version first", then he shouldn't say "Cool. I'll do that." He should either CHANGE his idea to meet that criteria and still release something that's as good as he can make it. OR he should say, "Thanks, but no thanks."

It's a waste of time. Because those who saw REBEL MOON Part 1 and 2 and hated it are NOT gonna stick around for the director's cut. So he just went and made a bunch of movies that a lot of people are disliking and now his audience is cut in half and won't see what is supposedly the "superior" version.

Better yet, there shouldn't even be a "Superior" version in the first place. There should be ONE version he's happy with and that's that. 300 is the best it can be and has no director's cut cause the theatrical version did everything it needed to stand on its own. Watchmen makes more sense to have an extended cut cause it's adapting a big story. Legend of the Guardians has no "director's cut". Technically, all his DC films weren't "intended" to have director's cuts either. Man of Steel works just fine in its theatrical form. BvS UE was intended to be the theatrical release until the studio got cold feet at the last minute. And ZSJL was more or less borne out of his studio disagreements at the time rather than something he wanted to be a "Director's cut" from the getgo.

REBEL MOON should NOT have a "director's cut". What was released should BE the "Director's cut".

2. Stop doing the cinematography
Snyder is a master at visuals, but there is a huge difference between being a director and a cinematographer. The Cinematographer/DP is supposed to translate his vision to reality through the camera lens in the best way possible. That's their job. Contrary to what people usually say about Snyder in that "he should be a cinematographer, not a director", he really SHOULDN'T. He's a director, and that's what he should remain. He should not be filming his own movies.

None of Rebel Moon nor Army of the Dead even come close to the visuals from 300, Watchmen, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, ZSJL, or even Legend of the Guardians. Snyder can see it in his head, describe what he wants to see in storyboards, direct the camera and DP team to shoot it in great ways, but holding the camera himself and framing up the shots he is not as good at as Larry Fong or Amir Mokri.

3. Don't write screenplays
Seems a given. And yet, despite POPULAR MISCONCEPTION, Zack Snyder DID NOT write Man of Steel, BvS or ZSJL. They were written by Goyer and Terrio. He may have had a hand in their STORY concepts and overall structure, but he did not write their screenplay. And while he collaborated on writing the screenplays for Rebel Moon 1 and 2, he still got a "SCREENPLAY BY" credit and was at the front of the list.

Some directors just can't write screenplays. There isn't any shame in that - Snyder seems to be one of them. He is better at adapting someone else's work and injecting his vision into it. But ALL of his worst movies are "original" stories he came up with. SUCKER PUNCH, ARMY OF THE DEAD And now REBEL MOON 1 and 2 are the movies most will agree are the least of his filmography.

4. Tone down the Slow Motion
REBEL MOON is almost a "parody" of Snyder's stylistic choices in that it way overindulges in his love of slow mo. Slow motion is great, but too much of it and it's a slog.
Arguably, one of his BEST MOVIES has almost ZERO slow motion (MAN OF STEEL). And even BvS had very, very little. 300 and WATCHMEN had slow mo, but they used it tastefully to enhance action and exemplify key moments, not take over the entire movie for no reason (though the sex scene was gratuitous in Watchmen, admittedly).

5. Get better fight choreographers
It's hard to believe Damon Caro, the fight choreographer of all of Zack's films, actually did Rebel Moon and Army of the Dead. I actually had to look it up to make sure it was true because I couldn't believe that the fights from Rebel Moon were choreographed by the same guy who choreographed the badass Smallville and Metropolis battles from Man of Steel or the kickass warehouse fight from BvS.

It's possible that Damon is just getting older and isn't as good at what he did as he used to. So in that case, he could use some extra help from someone else.

Because as far as the action is concerned, REBEL MOON and ARMY OF THE DEAD do not hold a candle to 300 or his DC movies. And those are the one thing most can unanimously agree on are Snyder's strong suit. And if he can't even get audiences salivating to see his kickass action scenes, then that's a real loss.

6. World-build better
Army of the Dead is zombies who can think and talk (and might be aliens) and Rebel Moon is science-fiction war in the stars... that takes place on a farm world.
At the very least, given Rebel Moon's setting and worldbuilding, you'd think that something a little more... "Epic" would be its war setting. Not defending some random farmworld with a team of mercenaries and rejects.

If you're gonna do something BIG and EPIC, go BIG and EPIC. Don't worldbuild and pick the least interesting thing about that world to focus on.

7. Do Something more Audience-friendly
I'm not one to ever want a filmmaker to do something he or she isn't passionate about, but maybe Snyder should steer away from making 'niche' hardcore-R-RATED stuff for a while. REBEL MOON 1 and 2 needing to be watered-down user-friendly PG-13 cuts is partially because Snyder pitched something that would normally have broad appeal (a sci-fi space war movie) for a niche market, hence why NETFLIX wanted him to tone it down.

But it's kinda... pointless. Not just for the reasons I described above, but also because Snyder should get out of his comfort zone for a change and do something else. Legend of the Guardians was a PG-rated film that still contained a lot of his sensibilities (for better or for worse). Man of Steel still had crazy off-the-walls action scenes for a PG-13 film and so did BvS (the MPAA was off their rocker giving the UE an "R" Rating as that film is the tamest R rated film ever).

"Bloody" isn't "Better."

Just finished Rebel Moon Part 2, WOW. This is a spoiler free, kind of review, but not really a "review"

I liked part 1 but I didn't love it. I thought that visually it lived up to my expectations, but it was lacking something that I couldn't quite put my finger on. I liked the characters, but I didn't love them.

I agreed with most of the comments/reviews about pacing issues, lack of character development etc, but I personally explained that away in my head as a side effect of it being half of a movie that was presented in two parts. So I was willing to wait until Part 2 to see if thinking of it as one long movie would solve the issues in Part 1.

At the end of the day, I thought Rebel Moon Part 1 was a solid movie that I would likely put on in the background now and again simply because I enjoy Zacks visuals. It didn't quite live up to my expectations, but it didn't live up to the horrible reviews it had received, it was good, it just wasn't great. I liked it and I expected Part 2 to be at least as good, maybe even a bit better since it's essentially the second half of the movie.

With all of that in mind, we queued it up and my wife and I settled in for a long night of "like".

Within 30 minutes it was already much better than Part 1. I hate even saying that, because truly, this should have been released as one long movie and the second half of any good action movie is going to be better than the first half, or at least way more engaging. This was immediately engaging and I was surprised how quickly I was into it and I started to realize what was missing or lacking in Part 1, but I didn't have words for it yet. We know there's a battle, so this isn't a spoiler, but without sharing details there's a scene that happens the night before the big battle we see in the trailer. Man is it an awesome scene and my wife blurted out, through actual tears, "this is so fucking GOOD, I LOVE this!"😂.

That's when I knew what Part 1 was missing, it was Heart. This movie has some serious heart. I don't even know how to explain what that means, but Zack creates feelings I just don't get from other directiors. That doesn't mean he's better or that people who don't get his work are dumb. It just means that for a slice of people in the world, Zack Snyder knows how to make you feel things that you can't explain, all while generally not taking anything too seriously. Maybe it's not for everyone, but it's definitely for me. I fucking LOVED it.

Genuine thanks to the Snyder's for continuing to stick to their vision and make movies that people (like me) LOVE.

One more tiny idea that hit me, no big deal. Zack Snyder is a rebel and his movies inspire a gutteral feeling of pride in yourself and pride in the things you love. They make you want to be ready to Rebel against the nonsensical people around you trying to constantly tell you what you should like and what you should do. They also make you want to disengage from a system that is filled with so much hate and negativity. He's a positive, low to no filter guy who makes movies that match his vibes. I happen to match most of his vibes so I just get it and I have fun with his work. If you don't, that's ok. Say 'meh and move along. No need to go all Imperium Enforcer on all the positive reviews you read. Just watch something else that you vibe with and let us be.
