Friends From Film School Podcast EP 61:
Bigger, Badder, and in 4:3 - Zack Snyder's Justice League
We're back after another long hiatus, aka Ellis' COVID quarantine to discuss the biggest film event of 2021 so far. That's right, this week Brad, Luke, and Ellis dive right into Zack Snyder's moody, dark, slow-motion & square ratio'd, 4 hour director's cut of 2017's Justice League. Not familiar with Justice League, and the Snyder Cut story? After a family tragedy, Zack Snyder stepped away from the project in 2017 and it was retooled for a shorter, quippier version helmed by Avengers director Joss Whedon. After the original films box-office failure, rumors of a much longer and more serious Zack Snyder cut of the movie spread and through social media hashtags and public outcry from fans and the movie's cast, HBO Max finally re-teamed with Snyder to release Justice League in its original intended glory. The friends are tasked with answering this question: Does Snyder's unsupervised edit reign supereme or did the suits at Warner Bros make the right call in bringing in Whedon to course correct the project? Join us to find out our thoughts on this HBO Max Superhero epic.
