We don't care what you'll do.

You tell em, Pa!

 

[Zetta]

That's good to hear I really enjoyed the movie. OP shouldn't this be in the game section?

Spoiler

/s

 

[moltonasty]

YES, can't wait for this. SS was flawed but I think a "directors cut" can do a lot to improve on it it, just like the superb BvS Ultimate Cut did.

 

[Alienous]

Hey, fuck you, WB.

Home release DLC bullshit.

 

[wesleyshark]

Hahahaha still haven't seen it. Still not sure I want to

Man, Michael Shannon was terrific in Man of Steel. It's a shame they had to kill him off after just one movie. One thing DC movies do seem to have over MCU is memorable villains.

 

[Sephzilla]

Elevated from a great movie to a masterpiece in my opinion.

But BvS is like, the 7th best theatrically released movie to have Batman in it.

Spoiler

Batman '89, Returns, Mask of the Phantasm, and the Nolan Trilogy are all better.

 

[kraspkibble]

Didnt go see it. Just waiting on the blu ray so will be getting this.

He was great in BvS, too.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

I always laugh when I see people say BvS is a masterpiece. Anyone that so much as implies this movie is in the same league as the greatest that cinema has to offer is delusional.
Fuck opinions and subjectivity.

I completely agree. Now, Man of Steel that's the true masterpiece.

 

[Theorry]

I am in. Just for more flashbacks scenes of Quinn and Joker.

 

[BronsonLee]

He was great in BvS, too.

oh you think you slick

Eh, fine, it's one of the best comic book movies ever, (tied with Watchmen) and one of the better movies around.

My name is Martha. Get it right, fuckers.

 

[RetroDLC]

Don't release a botched extended cut, give me the original cut.

 

[The Artisan]

"If a shitty two-hour movie wasn't shitty enough, this extended edition has you covered."

wasn't bvs ultimate edition considered a good movie?

 

[heliosRAzi]

oh you think you slick

Quiet, you.

He was much better than Jesse Eisenberg.

 

[wenis]

I completely agree. Now, Man of Steel that's the true masterpiece.

crazy town. population, quite a few.

 

[BronsonLee]

My name is Martha. Get it right, fuckers.

That's not what it says on this hospital form here

He was much better than Jesse Eisenberg.

What are you talking about, Michael Cera was Lex obv

 

[Man Called Aerodynamics]

He was great in BvS, too.

Lol. Better performance than Jesse Eisenberg?

8th, The Lego Movie is also better.

 

[heliosRAzi]

I always get those two confused.

It's really weird. I only ever see people making such outlandish claims about DC comicbook movies. I mean, TDK I can kinda see even if I'd disagree but BvS or MoS?

It's just bizarre.

 

[Toa TAK]

Eh, fine, it's one of the best comic book movies ever, (tied with Watchmen) and one of the better movies around.

Now I know you're just screwing around.

He was much better than Jesse Eisenberg.

That's not a high bar.

It's also not fair to Esienberg.

 

[Lord Virgin]

wasn't bvs ultimate edition considered a good movie?

Sure, by 10 delusional people. 8 of which is me.

That's not what it says on this hospital form here

You can't hurt me old man.

 

[Squalor]

wasn't bvs ultimate edition considered a good movie?

I'll give it "better," but it's far from objectively good.

Eh, fine, it's one of the best comic book movies ever, (tied with Watchmen) and one of the better movies around.

Trolling needs more nuance.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I don't care to see it. Almost all of my issues were story choices. It looks and sounds like there were a lot more Harley and Joker backstory scenes cut out, but adding more of that would have just detracted from the plot. In the case of the movie's plot Harley and Joker's backstory is irrelevant.

I would've like to at least seen some cool action sequences and maybe they're in this, but I feel like they would've put them in the theatrical release if there were any.

 

[kurahador]

Can't wait for Rope Guy alternate cut.

 

[Tabby]

wasn't bvs ultimate edition considered a good movie?

Sure. Depends who you ask.

 

[Sephzilla]

8th, The Lego Movie is also better.

I'm also tempted to say Batman & Robin was better because B&R at least accomplishes the "so bad it becomes good" loop.

 

[munchie64]

8th, The Leto Movie is also better.

Unfortunate typo.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

You mean that thing they said didn't exist actually does exist?

 

[Man Called Aerodynamics]

I only ever see people making such outlandish claims about DC comicbook movies.

Yeah, you certainly never hear something like Captain America 2 being compared with Three Days of the Condor or something like that. Boy would that be outlandish!

 

[Sheppard]

Hurm. I still feel iffy on this. I know there are rumors that two different cuts were presented to WB and that the Dark and Stormy Ayer version was not picked due to the "Blitzkrieg pop" Version that WB asked for. What version is this?


Somewhere, in another Dark Time Line, there is an R rated, David Ayer version of this movie.

 

[……forgetit]

Unfortunate typo.

Lol, yeah, really unfortunate

 

[Lord Virgin]

Please remove the damaged tattoo.

Better yet, remove Leto entirely and pretend he didn't exist. Recast Gosling as Joker.

 

[heliosRAzi]

Now I know you're just screwing around.

He's not

I don't care to see it. Almost all of my issues were story choices.

There are definitely huge editing issues with the movie, but the biggest ding against Suicide Squad is that they're sending them up against someone that is really powerful. The Squad is supposed to go after terrorists or something in some black ops type shit.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Please remove the damaged tattoo.

The damaged tattoo that you can barely see?

 

[Lord Virgin]

The damaged tattoo that you can barely see?

It will always stand out to me, it bothers me so much.

Goddamnit Ayer. Save us Nolan senpai.

 

[BronsonLee]

Goddamnit Ayer. Save us Nolan senpai.

You got Snyder on everything because of Nolan!

I'm not trolling. I fucking loved BvS, definitely more than anything in the Marvel camp yet (though GOTG was pretty great). It was one of the most enthralling comic movies I've ever seen. Love everything about it.

 

[DedValve]

wasn't bvs ultimate edition considered a good movie?

Wonderwoman kicked doomsday ass for like 1 minute. That was fucking awesome.

Also her theme song was fucking hype.

So yeah it was a terribly boring and bad movie. But that 1 minute of wonderwoman. Damn.

Spoiler

not hyped for her movie at all btw. And the 3 minute smallville fight of MoS was way better.

 

[JSevere]

this par for the course for DC movies now?

I'll still check it out though, there were lots of cool looking clips from the trailers that I wanted to see

 

[Lord Virgin]

You got Snyder on everything because of Nolan!

The man is tired, let him be. Dude aged 20 years in 4 years time because of you people!

 

[Kibbles]

Which of the 7 different cuts that Ayer confirmed is this? lol

But for real from what we know a lot was changed outright so while an extended edition is great and should make the character intros a lot better and such I still hope we get a bunch of deleted scenes that show the alternate takes with context.

Excited for this, but keeping expectations in check. Digital version a full month before physical?

Please remove the damaged tattoo.

Better yet, remove Leto entirely and pretend he didn't exist. Recast Gosling as Joker.

You do realize that Goslinn would've had the same exact scenes andwriting and same exact tats and design as Jared right? That was all Ayer not Leto.

I do think there's a version of this movie that could've worked where the fairly simple and bland plot of the Squad taking on Enchantress could've served almost as a framing device for various flashbacks about each Squad member that would've played throughout the film, which would carry the real emotional weight of the film.

Certainly would've worked much better than spending the first 45 minutes of the film with an MTV montage of every origin told with as rapid-pacing as possible.
