*** Justice League Thread ***

[Junglist]

Godfather 2 is is 3.5 hours and I don't think many people would say it's a poorly told story (there's even a ~7 hour version of 1&2 made into one film)

As long as it doesn't feel padded out for no reason and just long for long lengths sake then it should be ok. A good story will keep you drawn in for that length of time

Snyders "The Watchmen" Ultimate Cut is a 3.5hr film that engrossed me so much I didn't notice the time fly-by but it's rare to get a long film that draws you in that much nowadays TBH.

Watchmen is 3.5 hours.

@ianh Damnit, get out of my head with your hive mind.

TBH HBO is probably the best "quality vs quantity" streaming service if you look at the back catalogue and, as such, it's one of the few I do subscribe to but it understandable how the vast majority of folks will be seeing this

I'm very worried that when they show it on HBO Max that it's be stuck on the 4:3 ratio, that would be a major shot in their own foot.

It's technically not 4:3.

The movie was completely shot on imax cameras and Snyder wanted that to be how the film was shown. You get more picture rather than cutting bits off, formatting it to 16:9.

I do feel however that on a large cinema screen the imax ratio of 1:66.1 worls great but not so much on home TV.

o is it now available in the uk?

No but I live in Saudi so I have to VPN everything as even normal Google, YouTube etc can get blocked by the Government out here at times.

 

[ZXSpectrum]

I cant wait to see it. Apparently it has an international release date but as far as i am aware there is no way to watch it legally in the UK unless you use a VPN. I will probably watch it on my ship with my parrot while scratching my peg leg and drinking rum and purchase on 4K BR...

 

[steve5424]

They have confirmed it is releasing internationally on the 18th but doesn't seem to be any confirmation of how to watch it yet. Whether its VOD purchase. On linear HBO channels or other options.

So...the international seas then.

That or it will be on the HBO channel. I think the UK has one doesn't it?

Nope. HBO have an agreement with Sky but now Sky are part of NBC Comcast Universal HBO may not want to put it out on a competitor's platform.

 

[steve5424]

Just have to hope it appears on Sly Atlantic or on VOD.

 

[VincentHanna]

The latest news that flashed up on my Google was that WB Execs have seen the Snyder Cut and aren't impressed as reported by Geekosity.

Make of that what you will.

 

[steve5424]

Exes are hard to please. Especially when the film is made in a way that they never wanted.

Possibly means the film could be great.

 

[Uncle Petey]

Those same execs are the ones that approved the Whedon version and forced the BvS theatrical cut.
