Tell me which of snydra director's cut were for bluray and dvd?

Tell me how many director's cut of the above mentioned directors were for theater and streaming services?

I'm waiting
Your guys are really brain-dead to the core, honestly...
The Lord of the Rings: The return of the King extended edition was released on Blu-ray back then and many other movies... I can really see that I'm conversing with kids I swear...
Superman 2
Aliens
LoTR: The Two towers
The aforementioned and many other movies had done so for several reasons.
The internet is there to educate you in case you don't know anything about movies...

Why are SNYDRA bots clamouring for rebel flop director's cut then?

Support and watch your leader film. No. But when it's flops and perform badly, you brainless bots will rush online and start bullying studios to release director's cut just as you did to DC studios and now netflix grin
Are you also aware that there are many movies with directors' cuts or you just feel like commenting like you guys always do... Directors' cuts do not necessarily mean the first releases were bad always.. They are often times released for extra profit making or for higher sales of their dvd and blu-ray sales too... Hope you are aware that even the super talented, the very much topnotch directors like James Cameron, Peter Jackson and even Richard Donner Superman 2 also had directors' cuts.. Use the internet is your friendly neighbour please.

You want me to give a rating for a costume in a movie that has not been released? Are you alright?
Are you brain-dead? So those who have being reacting and rating the costumes are not alright by you na..
Movies like these are always under the people's radar to react on anything they see online and it's normal.
Ok, I guess people like you need to be spoon-fed, so let me rephrase: oga, we go like to see your "reaction" on how you see the Aba made costumes... Making Guy Gardner looking more like Donald Trump on a biking costume rather than an actual Guy Gardner green lantern we know, but no, people like you will call this Guy Gardner the best thing ever to exist..
If to say Gunn na Naija man I for suspect say the guy-man don run WB street coz wetin we don see so far especially because of the costumes the movie budget no suppose pass $50m I swear... The guy movement dey like our politicians here...

Box office for a movie that was released during a worldwide pandemic? grin grin LMFAO
I thought Snyder fans didn't care about box office results
So how was it a success with mediocre numbers. Numbers that can't even cover is budget, or success now have another meaning. Mind you the same Kong vs Godzilla was released even in a more difficult time and yet still did far better and superior numbers than your so-called mr know it all..
The highest grossing period for the DCEU was 99% under the dark and gritty and I did not read nor hear where people who love those movies complained about box office numbers aside those poo eaters who wanted everything to look like rainbow and cracking jokes like junkies on steroids...

Hohenheim:
Snyder movies were more matured how?
Because they were supposedly "dark and gritty" lmfao
What exactly was mature about any of Snyder's DCEU movies?
Because Clark let his father die? grin
Or because superman died in his second movie? Snyder never really had any interesting plot point or character growth so he just Michael Bay'd it up with fight scenes, and don't even get me started on how Batman had no regard for human life? Batman o

Just move on bruh, if you Snyder fans were true fans, seeing the success of both The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker would have had you exited for the future of DC movies under Gunn
But years later you're still doing fanboyism like teenagers instead of just enjoying things.
Please show us its box office gross and its budget... Are you guys paid to lie or what..

Lol


just take a good look at them, very toxic people. They claimed that they are DC fans but always come online to trashtalk any dc project that do not have SNYDRA in it


But it's a shame that their fraudulent leader has been exposed and they are now trying to bully netflix into releasing director's cut gringringrin
Being a hypocrite is too dangerous to one's health please.

Relax chief. I'm not here to throw subs with anyone. Someone makes a post and you Gunn's fans are already up in arms. How many times have I posted on this thread to make you think I'm a Synder guy? You want here to be an echo chamber where everyone kneels down and sucks James Gunn? Lol

Yes Synder movies were more matured than your average Superhero film. Yes they were dark and gritty which means they won't appeal to younger people like 7 years old kids. I would say the Synder movies were made for an older audience, at least 16 years upwards.

Synder movies are one of the few CBM where heroes don't live in a vacuum. We see how regular people in the world react to heroes. It took Marvel until Civil War to explore this. Examples The US army didn't even care to know who the bad guy was between Superman and Zod, they just started shooting at everyone in cape.

Superman is also hated for the casualties that happened at battle, he even had to stand trial.

We see people terrified about Batman. Some people think he's an urban legend, while people who have encountered him think his a spawn of the devil.

On Batman himself, the guy is highly damaged. He's an alcoholic who has terrible nightmares (Yeah the nightmares are just to further the plot). He's been fighting crime in Gotham for over 20 years. He's seen people he thought were good turn to bad guys. He's had his Robin slaughtered by the Joker. At this point he's no longer disillusioned that he's a hero. He knows he's a criminal that goes after other criminals.

How many superhero movies have ever explored these themes? Please mention 5 of them for me, or these are not matured movie themes for you?

Also out of all the points I raised you could only criticise one? Do you agree the costumes were deliberately designed to sell Toys? Do you agree having comedy scenes in the middle of a battle like MCU always does makes the battle feel like there are no stakes involved? Do you agree that we don't necessarily need an origin movie for every hero including the lesser known heroes before we see them team up together? This in particular was one of the biggest criticism of the Synderverse. Everyone wanted him to just copy Marvel's template.

Apart from the fights with Thanos. Tell me 5 Superheroe movies where you watched it and truly believed the fate of the world or city it at stake in the battle. Obviously you can't mention because one minute they are fighting, the next minute they are behaving like Tom and Jerry grin
He's truly a kid I guess...
Please ask him a very simple question like: has Batman ever killed in any live-action movie before BatFleck did or not... It will tell us more of his age and memory with cbm...

You're just lying to yourself I know deep down you don't really believe all those nonsense that you typed you're just too strong headed to admit you were wrong about snyder
This is exactly how sore losers react... I asked a simple question but all you could come up is trying to divert from the actual question...
I will still ask again, since I know people like you are heavily sentimental... Now please give us your ratings for the costumes showed so far. And please don't come you to say things like: you can't judge anything now since the movie is not yet out... Yeah I know vividly that the DCEU criticism started way back before even the 1st movie was released...

Peacemaker and The Suicide Squad is better than anything Snyder ever did for DC
Keep overhyping bullshits...
The same Starro, a Justice League level tier villain that they use common rats to kill... grin This is the reason I say many of you can eat shit and say it's tasty...
Peacemaker is no different from other generic tv shows that need crazy amount of time for them to tell a complete story, still nothing great about it. Maybe because you're okey with fillers as plot amour so you might think it was a great show, but it was never... There are hundreds of better shows out there over your Peacemaker....
Now let's know you taste of quality by asking you to rate your Gunn cosplay costumes...
Please, help me rate his Superman suit and the other suits showed online so I can tell if you're not just being sentimental

The snyderverse is dead


SNYDRA together with his psychopathic idea was chased away and thrown out like a petty thief.
Now sit tight and watch James Gunn school you bots and your failure of a leader on how to develop a proper franchise with proper story arc gringringringrin


You haven't even started crying yet, more tears is still coming gringrin
Is very unfortunate how Gunn's minions keep saying he's developed great stories when he was literally carried by the MCU (already established universe) and the Russo brothers throughout their time there... Aside the GotG 1 ( which still leveraged on the goodwill the MCU had ), his other movies were just average at best... Or maybe you think good movie is about using fillers ( jokes ) as plot amour right grin
Show us his movies outside MCU and let's see how greats they are regarding to how his minions make him appear like he's in the level of great directors.
Somebody that can't even come up with proper costumes for the characters. The simplest task amongst many, but you think it's the story arc that he will do better...continue dreaming...
Same man who once said that comic book movies/superheroes things are for dumb people is same person that you think understand that dumbshit ( now ) better than others lol... Things like these is the reason I know that some people will be giving poo to eat and they will still maintain smiling faces and went further to call the poo the most tasty food ever..
Funny of it sef, I'm not even clamouring for DCEU to be reinstalled, rather I'm clamouring for people like Gunn not to be given the helm for him not to turn the new DC project to MCU promax. Which from what people have seen he's literally doing so...
TV/MoviesRe: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by SMUAG(m): 5:56pm On Jul 03, 2024
Kaycee7:
At least, attach a screenshot or a link for reference if you're going to make claims like these
Attached which link or screenshot... Was it not his followers who have been saying Gunn is highly knowledgeable with comics/superheroes source materials, that he follows the source perfectly..

Mind you, the guy has also given us another cosplay/CW suits for Green Lantern and Hawkgirl right now grin grin cheesy cheesy

Another funny thing here is, many complains of Zack's BvS having too many cameo even before the movie was released, but Gunn is absolutely doing worse now and those same complainers are busy praising him ironic, right cool

I don't see why I'd need to defend good content. I'll just sit back and watch you shed hot tears as usual
grin good content with heavily flaw suit that the so-called creator of good content is rethinking of doing away with the diaper cosplay at the end of the movie because of heavy backlash... I thought you guys always claim he's the one with the so much depth with comics source...yet common suit he can't get right or come up with something decent....and from all the shooting so far, it looks like he's giving his fans GotG 3.5

Anyone else seen this??
Very poor suit!
Many people will even be eating shit and still put up smiling faces like it's tasty grin
The suit is heavily poor for what I have seen so far and nobody should say...hmmm Gunn will cgi it in post production so everything will look perfect. Even that, can't we get at least a befitting suit..
Defenders of the universe are currently on all platforms defending the diaperman suit....

I kinda agree with you on this one


That picture was uninspiring but i do hope the next superman reveal will be better.
Ok o... But he should prepare for the heavy backlash if he gives us crap... Also, I think the cameo characters are way too much for this movie... Is like we are getting a 0.5 The Justice Society of America movie here rather than an actual Superman movie..

Why is no one talking about this?

The new superman suit?
I was just laughing when I saw the okrika cosplay...
The suit looks soo poor that the CW costumes are looking more better...
Gunn is gradually inculcating his GotG ideas into this Superman costume, and we should tight our seatbelt for more.

I keep telling people that to make a Superman movie that will be good and also please almost everybody is near impossible because of his unique persona and power attributes... Just now now, people have started nitpicking on why is Superman feeling relaxed to put on his boot while the world is burning.. grin Gunn go hear am, na the boat him don enter too since him sabi talk well well make him ready to explain taya to people..and please nobody should try to play the blame game when people who dislike this cosplay come full all out on it because they have done worse...

Does the unthinkable but there's no meaningful impact to it on the citizens...
We are practically running out of physical cash due to the greedy nature of these banks ceos and the so-called CBN Governor is blind to it... Banks are intentionally hoarding cash from customers who go to their counters trying to make withdrawals, so they can start selling up the physical cash again. Cardoso should beam his light to those banks doing so, and also in a related matter; make sure this abokis don't hoard dollars cause they are currently selling the dollars to only those who are ready to pay high for a $. Most of them are still insisting on not selling their dollars below a $ to #1'500...

insidelife22:
Allow other investors in the cement industry for competitions, and watch demand and supply determine the cost.
Allowing other investors to go into cement production might not still tackle the sudden hyper-inflation we are experiencing (now), because investors are profit-driven no matter how you tend to look at it. This people are mostly under one association/union that the new comers will definitely join and their motto of profit oriented will not change... Meaning the Dangotes and the BUAs can easily persuade those new investors to align with their goal.

Minemrys:
The problem with the DCEU then was that it was too plot driven. It wasn't the dark tone or light tone. That was the misconception. It didn't have character moments that weren't reliant on just moving the plot but getting audiences to actually care about the characters. I didn't feel the love between Lois and Clark, we didn't even get to know Clark or Lex or Batman. Why Wonder Woman was liked was cause it had these moments. Same with the first Aquaman film.
Look at The Boys for example, that show is dark and people love it. Cause it's character driven. Same with Gen V.
Now, the mistake WB made was trying to make the Franchise like Marvel rather than correct the narrative style.
Now, we have to agree that Zack Snyder's weakness is, he isn't good at fleshing a story that surrounds around characters. He is more of the aesthetic and action director. He is not strong on story. That was what killed BvS and MOS. And to be fair, Henry Cavill was lame in MOS. He got better in BvS. Or maybe it was the direction. His Clark and Superman were just robots. He barely had facial expressions to contribute to his performance.

A lot of problems with the DCEU and WB was the chief architect of it. They should have had better script writers and not had Snyder build the universe. I feel they could have had a writer or two to carve out the plan and work it with directors who will then bring their own styles into the films.
The biggest mistake is trying to throw tv/series into a conversation where they aren't suppose to be... A series can't be compared to movies because tv/series can get away with so many things that movies can't. Let them try The boys as just a standalone movie and watch how it goes... Their are so many flaws in tv/series that audience can easily let go because their are still much room and time to make up for those flaws and series are meant to work with mini budgets, lesser vfx etc...so when a series breaks such boundaries then people tend to invest more of their time on it because what they are actually seeing now looks different. Whereas movies are expected to be so.

I still don't understand what you mean by Henry was lame (as Superman) in MoS.. I guess you judging from the angle of Christopher Reeve's Superman, because from what I have come to know their are 100s of version or alteration of Superman out there and I don't think many of us have read up to 20 different versions for us to completely say he was lame in MoS... I think somebody answered this same question on MoS being lame/bad perfectly on Quora site and even gave the actual version that Henry Cavill's Superman was actually portraying. Maybe if I get hold of that excerpt (again) I will paste it here...
Yes, their are/were flaws in both movies, but the bulk of the blames should go to WB for trying to be faster than their shadows in everything...
Even the best story tellers and writers will suffer almost the same fate as Snyder if their works are being heavily meddled with...
