Yeah, who knows? But it looks like they'll be using The Flash as the narrative way to wipe the slate clean and start over (mostly).

That's a good point. I was thinking of the Snyderverse as just those films he was directly involved with - everything prior to JL. But it's true that those later films are in the same continuity.

I thought the Snyderverse was long gone, honestly. All other planned SV movies were cancelled or shelved, and DC has released only independent movies thereafter.
Was there talk of possibly...
I think there are a few other contenders for second place. Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, for example. The latter has been in 16 theatrical release films, for comparison.
But yes, Batman has...
Any member reviews for The Suicide Squad? My third- or fourth- hand impression is that the DCEU found a tone and a director to suit the content of the script, so it worked.

I don’t think there’s been any confirmation that these films would actually appear, has there? There was a suggestion in the video that they might appear as comic books, perhaps.
I’d be interested to know whether Snyder made any choices for the 2021 cut that were different from what he would’ve done in 2017. With a few years to reflect on his work for the DCEU, I wonder his...
As a kid I was oblivious to the Marvel/DC divide, partly because the comics I read were pretty random. I don't recall actively seeking them out - I tended to get issues that were thrown in as an...
Right, I'm not saying you *should* cut out an hour, I'm saying that if the studio wanted a more acceptable length for theatrical release, you *could* cut it down to 3 hours and still retain most of...
I will say that the excess is forgivable given that it’s being released on a streaming service. As I say, I think of it like the Lord of the rings extended edition – not something you’d necessarily...
Yes, I completely agree. The story is basically the same, but it’s fleshed out much more in the Snyder cut, and executed much better. Scenes have better set up, and you can understand what’s...
One thing that surprised me was that a lot of the scenes I assumed were Whedon additions were in the Snyder version. Honestly, it looks like Whedon simply eviscerated the original movie, and then...
I just watched the Snyder Cut.
Far better than the Theatrical release - by a great deal. A lot of scenes now make more sense, the broader backstory for the mother boxes is a definite win, and...
True, but some of that reputation and credibility comes from having early access to these kind of blockbusters. I'm concerned that they won't give a negative review because they don't want to lose...
I mean ... sure. But "insider" reviewers with early access are essentially part of Warner's marketing arm.
I'm not saying the movie won't be good, but you shouldn't trust what a used car salesman...
The trailer intensified both my hopes and my fears for the movie.
One thing's for sure - it will be the Zack Snyder-est Zack Snyder movie that ever Zack Snydered.

Really? Originally I thought Darkseid was going to the the villain (although maybe that was in the two-film scheme, and Steppenwolf was the villain in part one). I hadn't heard that Snyder changed to...
I think the Snyder Cut will probably be better, and more interesting, than the theatrical cut. If nothing else, it will reflect where Snyder was headed with the third film of his DC series (even if...
I think it depends a lot on what your expectations are. Some people love Snyder’s style and vision for the franchise, so they are hoping for something amazing. A lot of those people will love it no...
I just finished watching WW84, and I thought it was okay. They did a lot right - and it was true to the 80s WW comics in many ways - but it was just too long. They tried to do too much in one movie....
