DC Extended Universe Thread (DCEU)
That's how it starts. The fever. The rage. The feeling of powerlessness. That turns good men....Cruel - Alfred.
This may be the only thing that I do that matters - Bruce.
Stay down, if I wanted it, you would be dead already - Clark.

I've been celebrating since Wednesday, and trying to avoid the boards as much as possible (everyonexwants to crap on this for some reason, even though nobody is requiring them to watch it). The Snyder Cut is real, it exists, and as a proud (non-toxic) member of the #releasethesnydercut movement, it's wonderful to say that we won. So, what am I looking forward to?
1. Superman with his real face. I recall back in 2016-2017, they said Cavill didn't have a super big part. Then the reshoots happened and he's well featured in the last 30 minutes, which is substantial for a 2-hour film. I'd rather have 15 minutes of Superman out of a 4 hour runtime (just to use an example) if it means his face isn't distorted.
2. Junkie's score! Bringing back the OG soundtrack....Superman's theme! Wonder Woman with the guitar riff (no weak horns here, Elfman!). What did Junkie compose for Flash/Aquaman/Cyborg? Can't wait!! I hope they release his score for purchase.
3. Henry Lennox tweeted about this the other day, waxing poetic about justice...and while I highly, highly doubt they will bother to bring principal cast back for any scenes, I DO think they can put Lennox in front of a green screen for a quick "Swanwick reveals his Martian self" scene. It's been hyped too much to leave it out.
4. Darkseid, of course.
5. Mayyyyyyybe the original design for Steppenwolf? This one is entirely dependent on how far the cash goes with the vfx, and may not be possible. But a week ago, nothing was coming and now we live in a post-Snyder Cut announcement world. So we'll see.
6. This one is obvious, but we're totally getting the Ayer Cut of Suicide Squad. I mean, c'mon. Easier (cheaper) to finish post on, and people want to see it. I need all of that missing Leto Joker footage hooked to my veins, stat.

Every post I make, it should be assumed by the reader that the following statement is attached: "It's all subjective. What works for me doesn't necessarily work for you, and vice versa, and that's ok. You may have a different opinion on it, but this is mine. That's the wonderful thing about being a comics fan, it's all subjective."
I just tried to edit the first post to include a poll and it doesn't appear I can. However, I do see it as an option when I try to start a new thread. Sorry, but awesome idea! As for me, I can't really think of anything I'm not excited for. EVERYTHING is going to be fleshed out even more and we'll also see plenty more that was cut by WB and Whedon.
1. But, I honestly think I'm looking forward to Cyborg's backstory (he's been often noted as the heart of the movie and JL by Snyder) the most.
2. Tom Holkenberg's (Junkie XL) OST. Can't wait to get Elfman's gunk out of that movie.
3. Probably followed by no longer seeing CGI'd Cavill throughout 75% of his scenes.
Honorable mention: Willem Defoe's Vulko in this version, that should be cool.
100% all the way.

Someone on twitter asked him if we were gonna get the original Steppenwolf design. Snyder responded with a wink emoji. It’s cryptic but I hope it means that he’s gonna change the design to something similar to what we saw in BvS. Rumor has it that WB made him change it to the goofy looking Steppenwolf to make the movie more kid friendly.
Ah how could I forget about the score. That's high up there on my list. It's really not the same without the proper themes. Particularly the MOS theme...I would hope that it signals a much more dramatic return for Superman. A real "here comes the cavalry" moment, not a comedic one-liner bordering on parody.
I'm not sure how I feel about Steppenwolf. Obviously what we got in the theatrical cut was poorly done, but giving him a quasi-human affect seems closer to the comics and more appealing for an actor to emote.We can't know for sure what it was supposed to look like, but I'm not sure if I'm totally down for the monster look either.
Either way I hope it's at least cleaned up and improved.
Didn't know where to write this and didn't want to start a new thread (I'm an older forum user who understands not every thought needs it's own thread) I just wanted to say I'm new here, just signed up.
Most other forums are dead so it is quite awesome to find an active forum with cool people discussing the hero's I love (dc for life!) I am a new reader, post new 52 and I'm always looking for people to explain things to make my experience better. So thank you as I have already learned so much just reading 20 pages of your discussions.
As far as the Snyder cut goes. I guess I'm one of the rare people who has liked Snyder's films so far, aside from no squid in watchmen I've been relatively ok with his films. It's always just been my understanding that story was going to be sacrificed for visuals. Snyder is a bad story teller. I'm hoping Matt Reeves bridge's the gap between Nolan and Snyder but we will see.
After the Snyder cut I hope that's it, I think it's time to move on and let reeves make his trilogy. If there is one thing marvel has done it's just get out of the way and let marvel studios do it's thing. Watching all the marvel was hard as a d.c. Fan. On one hand I'm happy for those people but on the other hand I was super jelous.
Anyways, I'm bad witch (super nin fan) thanks for being here!!
It really made no sense to include that. Moore was clearly deconstructing a COMIC BOOK cliche "a telepathic bioengineered clone presented as alien interdimensional invader". Cmon. There was nothing like that in the movies back in the day. It was a right choice to bend that.

Reshoots/additional photography are looking more likely.
