I'm not sure if this is gonna happen but:

DC Fans Start An Online Petition For The Release Of Zack Snyder's Version Of JUSTICE LEAGUE

https://www.comicbookmovie.com/justice_leag...-league-a155521

I think Zack had already shown his final cut to WB execs and while they liked it, they felt it lacked something hence the re-shoots and then the unfortunate tragedy led to Zack stepping away completely and Whedon taking over fully.

I for one, would actually like to see what Zack's version would've been like.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I mean, from what we experienced in BvS, he does have that tendency.

I remember reading that Zack's intention was to make JL lighter than BvS and I suppose he did but probably not enough for WB execs? Would be nice if someone on the inside could share which shots were Whedons and which were Zack's, only then will we know for sure.

But with the clip of the deleted scenes...I mean, heck, I'm no cinematographer and not a Zack Snyder die hard fan by any means but it seems like a lot of the deleted scenes had Zack's style to them.

I know right? I mean, not to troll or be a hater but I think Zimmer and Junkie XL's work would've suited this better. The moments where he added the 1989 Batman theme and John Williams' Superman theme were just somehow awkward and felt like an after thought.

Also did anyone not notice he managed to squeeze in the Avengers theme when they boarded the Flying Fox? I'd almost say that it was sacrilegious hahaha.

I have no particular affinity for one comic book universe over another - I enjoy Marvel's movies just as much as DC's but...to use the Avengers theme in JL? Almost like opening a Star Trek movie with the Star Wars theme.

Noice one.

Correct me if I'm wrong, however, I think for Justice League, it was released same time for China. I could be wrong, but I remember reading it somewhere.

I kinda want to see this happen:

Petition For Warner Bros. To Release Zack Snyder's Cut Of JUSTICE LEAGUE Nears 100,000 Signatures

https://www.comicbookmovie.com/justice_leag...natures-a155678

Not sure how these things work but I hope Zack or WB at least, grants the fans this cut of the movie. Don't know if 100,000 fans is enough to warrant something like this though; probably not, but who knows...

Wow 20 years? In this day and age, probably enough years to warrant a couple of Supes reboots and re-casts hahaha.

Can't seem to play the clip on my office laptop, will check it out at home; thanks though!

Hmm, I wonder how this will affect the future of the DCEU. They were sharing their film slate for the next few years but apparently they will decide the direction of the DCEU depending on how well JL does at the box office and so far...leaves much to be desired unfortunately.

That's true, studios will soldier on I guess.

That is quite a lot on their plate; a bit too late to turn around now I suppose.

I think of all the above, I'm looking forward most to WW2 and Aquaman. Flash - have they got a director yet? I think Ezra did well with the material he was given. He's seems like quite a talented actor and can do more with a better script and screenplay.

I'm also seriously hoping they do a MOS2 or another Superman solo movie.

Exactly right? It's bad when it is THAT obvious.

Just curious, would you prefer them stick with Cavill as Supes or re-cast him? That is, if they do a MOS2.

Yea, it's a pity he has not had good material to really work with. I too hope they keep him as Superman.

News is that he is contracted to play Superman at least one more time but it does not specify whether in a solo movie or part of an ensemble/cameo.

Yeah I hope so too.

In interviews at least, he says he wants to play the character for as long as possible; so that's got to be good news. Now just up to the studio if they still want him beyond one more film.

I read that too and was super psyched about the possibility of a Zack Snyder cut...but then I read this on comicbookmovie.com:

JUSTICE LEAGUE VFX Artist Says That A Zack Snyder Cut Of The Film Does Not Exist

https://www.comicbookmovie.com/justice_leag...t-exist-a155735

I guess we'll have to wait until we hear from Zack himself. He recently shared a BTS photo of him - presumably when he shot the Deathstroke scene with Joe Manganiello. Seems like he still has interest in the movie/universe.

Also, apparently that same VFX artist who said a Snyder cut doesn't exist, had this to say about Cavill's mustache:

Paramount Reportedly Turned Down WB's Offer To Give Henry Cavill A CGI Mustache In MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 6

https://www.comicbookmovie.com/justice_leag...sible-6-a155742

Maybe a soft reboot could work; but honestly, I'm not sure how they'll do it...but I really don't know the source material enough to comment on a reboot.

I just hope they maintain the actors, except and unless Ben Affleck wants to leave the role..then they could recast Batman, I'm not sure Jake Gyllenhaal works though, otherwise...I think they got the cast pretty spot on.

Plus a reboot...would take years before they start on one I would think. The gap between Spiderman 3 and The Amazing Spiderman was 5 years I think? And what they did with Fantastic Four...I think the gap between Rise of the Silver Surfer and the Josh Trank reboot was a little more than 5 years.

We'll see in the next couple of months what the Execs say. I thought they were course-correcting when they brought Geoff Johns on board...but seems like it hasn't really changed anything.

No kidding, Ben Affleck already 45, not sure how much more he can take to get in Batman shape.
