Part 1: Four Years Ago<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back in 2017, the highly anticipated \u201cJustice League\u201d was released in theaters, during that time, I had just given birth and was still recovering from my post-cardiomyopathy. I was focused on my then new-born baby and getting better, so I wasn\u2019t really privy into the going-ons behind the movie, I guess, during that time, a lot of us weren\u2019t. I remember making an exemption to attend the press screening with my sister. I remember being underwhelmed with the Atlantis stronghold were a motherbox was kept, I thought it didn\u2019t even look deep enough <\/em>under water to be in, I remember how poorly the stronghold was, barely had any guards at all! I did like the scene with the Amazons though, I remember being at the edge of my seat while they basically made a relay with their motherbox. I remember thinking that Henry Cavill\u2019s mouth did<\/em> look weird, especially at the first scene, with the two kids interviewing him. Calling this out early-there is no Henry Cavill with a weird mouth in the Snyder Cut, so you can rest easy on that and there is no weird Russian family also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I guess, in hindsight I was just happy to see the Justice League on the big screen, I grew up watching the animated series on Cartoon Network and seeing my heroes on the big screen was a treat enough for me. Yeah, sure, there were some plot holes here and there and a bit of a let down that the big baddie-Steppenwolf wasn\u2019t really defeated in the end but was instead carried off by his own Parademons because he smelled of fear.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Um. Okay.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I left the film at the back of my mind and went on with my life but there were others who, thankfully couldn\u2019t and wouldn\u2019t. Over the years, #ReleaseTheSnyderCut became a call from fans who rallied to have Director Zack Snyder\u2019s cut of the movie released. Apparently there was a lot of studio interference with how the film was edited and due to a personal tragedy (the death of his daughter) Snyder had to step away from the project. Joss Wheadon (Avengers: Age of Ultron) was hired to take over and apparently give Justice League a more \u201cMarvel movie\u201d feel, i.e. lighter and funnier, which explains those awkward and actually not funny jokes. Case in point, that bit where The Flash falls on top of Wonder Woman, I mean, what was that all about? Gal Gadot didn\u2019t want to do the scene, so they had to use a stunt double. I for one, didn\u2019t think it was funny at all. Snyder on the other hand, has always strayed away from the MCU formula, \u2018Man of Steel\u2019 <\/em>and \u2018Batman V Superman\u2019 <\/em>was always seen as too dark by critics and fans but Snyder knew, to duplicate what Marvel was doing was insanity \u201cBecause they were so good at it<\/em>, he said in an interview with the New York Times, link here<\/a> (and below). \u201cWhat DC had was mythology in an epic level, and we were going to take them on this amazing journey.\u201d<\/em> And yes, they do deliver this (and more!) in the Snyder Cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now there may be other names and producers who could be blamed and put at fault at how the 2017 Justice League version turned out but that\u2019s not why I\u2019m writing this (if you want a more in-depth idea of what happened during that tumultuous time of shooting and editing of the Justice League movie, read the in-depth Variety Fair article, link here<\/a> (and below)-the earlier mentioned examples (there will probably be more later on) were only to compare the two films, which we will get more into later on. Moving forward I will just be referring to the old Justice League\/Joss Wheadon version as to the 2017 film and the Snyder version as the Snyder Cut.      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fans petitioned for the Snyder cut to be released, said petition started as early as 2017 and four years later, their hard work paid off, because here we are, incidentally that also means that my son, who was hovering around me while I was watching my press screener for the Snyder cut and who was also awake at an ungodly hour while I\u2019m writing this is turning four this year! I told you-time, is a funny thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set to be released on HBO\u2019s streaming services (HBO Max in the US and HBO GO in the Philippines) the Snyder cut will have a four-hour run time, compared to the original 2017 cut, which only had two. Wowza. <\/em>The film will be divided into six parts, beautifully named as the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 1: Don\u2019t Count On It Batman<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 2: The Age of Heroes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 3: Beloved Mother, Beloved Son<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 4: Change Machine<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 5: All The Kings Horses<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 6: Something Darker<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and an Epilogue which after seeing the film, I think is a good gauge to have so you would know when to take a break when seeing it. A good idea, would be to take a break (bathroom break, snack break) after Part 3, just before Part 4. If you noticed, I also took the liberty of breaking down this piece in three parts, the first part from when I saw 2017 movie four years ago, second part was after seeing the Snyder Cut and the third, a bit of an afterthought, sort of an epilogue, what can I say? Zack has been rubbing off me.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As soon as I got a confirmation that I was going to get to see an advanced screener for the Snyder cut, I re-watched the 2017 version (it\u2019s on HBO Max) so I could compare the two. I saw the movie, without my rose-tinted glasses on (the optimism and excitement of a fan) and well, I was still disappointed by the same scenes and saw more \u201cconveniently shot scenes and dialogues said\u201d (the burglar Batman used as bait, seemed to say all the right lines about those Parademons, and that painting of Aquaman with the motherboxes in the sea-side tavern was an all-too convenient plot device also) and well, more loopholes (that the third motherbox was easily taken by Steppenwolf while the Justice League were busy with Superman was frustrating-like duh! Kind of makes you want to smack your face with your hand. And again-that Steppenwolf gets conveniently carried away by Parademons-ugh, no satisfaction that the big evil was defeated by the good guys!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I realized that the 2017 film was like a mish-mash of things, some good, mostly bad that was wrapped and tried to look pretty with a garish bow-when in fact it was anything but pretty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 2: The Snyder Cut<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four hours later-I was overcome with emotions. I had been crying, shouting and honestly, it was a whole new movie. It looked better, it sounded better, the science and logic were better. It had more heart<\/strong>. This was my initial reaction, my mini review so to speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t believe it.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Believe it.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Snyder cut opens with the death of Superman, the moment he dies, and goes on to show how all the motherboxes reacted to his death- which I think ties both movies (Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League) together nicely, among other things. The film then proceeds to show our characters at a better light, it then explores their sacrifices and their losses. First time watching the 2017 movie, my favorite scene was the one with the Amazons in Themyscara, (and I think that already says a lot that when your favorite scene isn\u2019t even the fight with the big boss or the film\u2019s climax) the Snyder cut enhances this scene by raising the stakes on the action sequences (okay, it gets more brutal, if that is your kind of tea and there is<\/em> blood, something which was absent in the 2017 film) and also emphasizes the sacrifices of the Amazons. I saw the 2017 twice, but I didn\u2019t realize that the Amazons who were left behind in the stronghold of the motherbox were sacrificing themselves, the Snyder cut heightens the drama and emotion in-time with the high-octane action<\/strong>; a delicate balance but one he was able to pull off, so there was more love to this scene now that it was essentially, better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of battles-the Golden Age of Heroes of Battle was even more majestic and I\u2019m glad that they actually said Zeus and Aries\u2019 names, I think they deserve a little shout out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I read somewhere that Snyder always intended for Cyborg (Ray Fisher) to be the heart of the movie and well, anyone who\u2019s seen the 2017 cut wouldn\u2019t be able to come to that conclusion. Well, I\u2019m happy to say that the Snyder cut not only redeems Cyborg\u2019s arc but indeed does make him the heart of the movie. We get to see and know Victor Stone before he became Cyborg and get to understand his strained relationship with his father and this sets up for more drama and emotion towards the end of the movie (and also fixes a loophole that got me disappointed) but which I won\u2019t be talking about here, because it\u2019s a new scene in the Snyder Cut and a bit of a spoiler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>

We also get to see and understand more of Lois\u2019 grief, in the Snyder cut she hasn\u2019t been back to work since Clark died and has been visiting the fallen Superman monument every day. Keep your eyes peeled at an object inside her bedside drawer (hit me in the comments if you catch it) and one thing she\u2019s carrying back into the Kent house (Did you see it? Let me know!).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Sounds Good Too<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have to applaud the choice of songs and music in the film. Even the choice not to use any music to heighten the emotion in a scene, such as when Barry was speaking to his father over the phone in the prison. There was no music, no song used, it was just their voices over the prison phone and I think that that\u2019s beautiful, that we can only hear their voices, and in a real-life setting, that would have been the same case, they would just hear each other\u2019s voices. I also love that every time Wonder Woman or the Amazons would appear, they had a selection of their distinctive music that was used.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Future Is Taking Route in the Present<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Snyder cut presents a new completely thrilling climax, the part that got me screaming and shouting at the screen? Yup. The stakes were up, the pressure was high and the resolution was absolutely satisfying and sets up another <\/em>DCEU film, currently in the works, so I\u2019ll just leave it at that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of satisfied-fans get what they deserve, a satisfying end to Steppenwolf, so no, he doesn\u2019t get carried away by Parademons, our heroes give him such an epic and brutal ass kicking, it is sure to get a couple of cheers and shouts from the audience watching and I can imagine that would have been a super fun moment in the cinema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of the cinema –<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 3: An afterthought   <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world is not fixed in the past but in the future and in a world post Covid (huh, wish I could say the same here) and in a world where streaming has become the norm, perhaps executives and the big hats shouldn\u2019t be afraid of a movie that has a four-hour run time. Given the chance would I see the Snyder Cut in a cinema? In IMAX? Hell yes! Just put that break in between, for the sakes of our bladders and other bodily functions. As I was watching I would think, this scene would be awesome in the movie house, oh, the fans would be shouting at that line, oh the whole cinema would go bonkers over that.  In a world where Covid is still present, would I consider paying to stream it instead in my home, through a legal serving app? Yes! I\u2019ve seen it twice now and I have decided to get either a physical copy of purchase it over the Google Play Store once it\u2019s available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also have to talk about that epilogue, in an effort to continue to stray away from what the MCU has set up (post credit scenes, Snyder puts all of the post credits scenes, which traditionally can be found at the middle of credits or at the end of the credits in Marvel movies, in an epilogue. So, it\u2019s actually before<\/em> the credits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The credits actually begin with- (For Autumn)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a way, having the epilogue, (which has so many reveals and opens up so many possibilities it will be a discussion party among fans, lots of fan theories here for sure but of course, which I will not spoil but feel free to hit me up in the comments if you have seen it and have any thoughts you want to share) before the credits is the perfect way to honor his daughter, and to the cast and crew who worked with him and believed in him, and as a friend said, it\u2019s also the best way to end the #ReleaseTheSnyderCut movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For Autumn<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It would be a great disservice in my part if I did not mention that the real tragedy here, is that, while Zack may have redeemed himself and his work through the release of the Snyder cut, but there is no coming back from the loss of his 20-year-old daughter, Autumn, who after a long struggle with depression, took her own life. Remember that this family tragedy happened while Zack was working on Justice League and having a creative conflict with Warner Bros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The film ends with a text that says: \u2018For Autumn\u2019 and instead of a heavy rock version of The Beatle\u2019s \u2018Come Together\u2019 for the ending theme, we hear Leonard Cohen\u2019s \u201cHallelujah\u201d as performed by Allison Crowe, a family friend who also sang it at Autumn\u2019s funeral, it was also her favorite song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zack Snyder did not accept any payment for the Snyder Cut, this he did for creative freedom from the studio. The film will also help raise money for suicide prevention programs, which the Snyders hope will spare other families the grief that shook their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor the first time, I\u2019m operating entirely on faith!\u201d Ben Affleck\u2019s Batman tells Alfred (Jeremy Irons) and like time, faith is a funny think. Fans believed in Zack and his work. And through faith and hard work, his work, which would have been lost in the corner of his office is now set to be released to a world that needs faith, a world, trapped in a very unsure and difficult time who needs to believe, who needs hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou will give the people of Earth, something to strive for\u201d a voice (one of his fathers) tells a newly resurrected Superman and I think for a while (more than four hours for sure, because it\u2019s so epic, you will need some time to process it) and the Snyder cut gives us that-faith and hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
