That's my point. Why have this whole "director driven" narrative if you're just driving the dude out of the editing room? lol..Just give it to us the way he planned and let US decide if we enjoy the thing or not. Clearly they don't have a clue.

LIARS!
I think Snyder was left alone on MoS, mostly because Nolan told WB to fuck off. Then he didn't want any part in this universe and WB got right back in. Doubt any director gets free reign on these movies, maybe James Wan.

Honestly, we'll have to see Wonder Woman to be sure, but the emerging pattern does not paint a pretty picture of WB. MoS suffered from a middling script, but BvS was absolutely butchered in the editing room, and signs point to SS essentially being gutted by executive meddling. If it happens again in WW, we'll have 3 points of commonality.
Hopefully, Johns can shield the movies from that sort of thing, but I honestly don't know if he'd be inclined to, or even could.

I mean, most people didn't. We know that with Man of Steel, and then with BvS. Hell, I know people who still didn't like it after the UC because it still had a lot of the same problems (namely tone/portrayal of characters - which wouldn't really be fixed in a Director's Cut).
There would be no reason for them to have created D.C. Films if all their going to do is still micromanage.

My main reason for disliking BvS, besides this incarnation of Supes, is that I had to watch the uncut version at home. Shit is stupid. They really just need to take a step back, and let things play out. Half the complaints folks had with the movie were very much covered with the longer cut.
As for tone/portrayal, yeah. I'm one of them. I somehow liked Supes more in MoS than BvS..and I'm not a big fan of him in MoS, so..
Exactly..I'm just not getting it.

Sometimes people do stupid things.
Just looking at the this years movie release schedule... and as of now, Justice League has the potential to have a huge box office for 4 weeks straight. Coco is the only competition until Star Wars and I have a feeling Coco will only pull in Good Dinosaur numbers (65 mil opening weekend).
Nov 17 - Justice League, nothing else has been announced on that date
Nov 22 (Wednesday due to American Thanksgiving) - Coco, Let it Snow, and Murder on the Orient Express
Nov 24 - Darkest Hour (has a limited release)
Dec 1 - He's Out There
Dec 7 - Nothing listed yet
Dec 15 - Star Wars Ep 8

That should be a good four weeks of uninterrupted monies. Wonder who's gonna be so bold as to put a flick within the 1st/2nd week..I'm guessing nothing that would make an impact until VIII barrels through.

From David Ayer's twitter:
I'm one of the ones that dislike this movie and was pretty upset with Ayer, but I've got to give respect after what I just read. I do wish him the best and hopefully the mistakes he's made in Suicide Squad, won't be repeated in Gotham City Sirens.
Ayer is a good guy who has done good work in the past. Suicide Squad was the worst movie I saw last year but he was also pretty much doing everything on the fly with an impromptu script. Some times that works, like with the production of Iron Man for example, some times it...doesn't.

Fuck Iron Man.

lol..
There were some great ideas in SS but they just weren't realized. It reflects well on Ayer to own up to SS. The fact that WB is willing to work with him again kinda says that they recognize its problems weren't entirely on him.
What did he mean by this?

Something about Green Lantern makes actors want to mess with fans. At least Armie Hammer is realistic choice compared with what's his face the drone pilot.

Don't think it's possible, from all I've seen..
Coco will dethrone JL if JL has bad word of mouth and Coco is Pixar... but yeah, JL is also going to fight off the 3rd weekend of Thor.

its pretty crap, hopefully the batman movie fixes it back to BvS look. i'm so hyped to see batman go to town on some goons though. seeing him move so quickly in that warehouse scene was beautiful.
i hope he fights a few human thugs in JL as well rather than just cartoon shit. give us a deathstroke fight in this.

I liked how useless Batman was in the Doomsday fight. I want him to have his Bat-god moments, but he shouldn't be tussling with those super powered beings in a fair fight. Seems vehicles will help him keep up.
Though, it'd be cool if he tries fighting Steppenwolf when the other JL members and knocked out. Like, he's still useless but he's giving it his all. And then Superman shows up and saves him. I'm basically describing a scene from One Punch Man...Batman is Mumem Rider.

I got one shot left bro.
Other than that, he was just a distraction for Doomsday.

Everything about this screams TV level costumes. From the awfully armored The Flash, why does he have armor when he can outrun a bullet? LOLOLOLOL
And Gal Gadot with that lifeless expression..the woman can't act, why didn't they go that MMA chick.
Cyborg looks like a damn Transformer...is this a Michael Bay joint? :S
The Batman suit is too dark and the batears are too short, they should be long, like you know a bat?
And then we have Aquaman, a bearded and longhaired majestic creature that can talk to fish...please...too unbelievable.
And lastly we have Superman? Why is he back? didn't he die in BvS? Also, why doesn't he have a black suit and long hair...that plastic looking suit is awful.
Whoever designs this shit should watch Marvel for some real costumes.
That's my two cents.
Batman wasn't just useless, he had literal plot armor saving him. In a less serious movie, I wouldn't have minded, but stuff like giant explosions blowing away buildings completely leaving Batman unscathed because he happens to duck under a chest high wall really bug me. I don't mind seeing Batman punch above his weight with the use of tactics and gadgets but what we actually got was pretty dumb.
lol She's the only one emoting in the picture this time and she's still being picked on.
Hey I didn't say her expression was bad! It just stands out
