I couldn’t keep focused on it. Went to bed about 1.5 hrs in

Took me three days to finish as well, but I really liked it

Finished watching it. OMG a good editing would made it better. For example did we really need the entire song the women sang as Aquaman went into the sea? Even Aquaman thought it was pointless and left.

I can, though I fully admit my bias!

The music was probably the biggest letdown for me. Hans Zimmer is not an act anyone wants to follow, but the color and texture of the compositions in ZSJL are just OK. Sometimes they work, and sometimes they don’t. Doesn’t detract from the overall experience that much.

Overall, I found the tone to be much more inline with previous entries than the theatrical release. There are some odd choices for humor that I was hoping were part of Joss Whedon’s reshoots, but they were not. Knowing that the studio did want a lighter tone I imagine the comedic bits were Snyder’s attempt at appeasing them, though this is complete conjecture.

I’d put it squarely in PSA 8.5 territory. Flawed, but not a waste.

Hans Zimmer will be known as the Mozart of our time hundreds of years from now.

John Williams still tops him though

Justice League/Zack Snyder’s Justice League are both disorganised, uneventful, and unearned movies that are too try-hard dark and serious but also manage to come off as goofy and silly at the same time. A lot of the Marvel movies are goofy and silly as well but they aren’t trying to be grim, dark, and gritty as well.

I’ve never understood the opposition to dark and gritty comic book movies. Care to elaborate on that specifically?

I don’t find them fun and entertaining. I have NEVER rewatched a DCU movie and the wife has declined to watch many even once. I think she has watched Deadpool 6 times.

Thought the ZS cut was wayy better. Actually provided some background into what was going on and we got some scenes with darkseid
