So has anyone figured out how we will see it legally here on release date?

Just have to wait until it arrives here.

I’m hoping Sky doesn’t get an exclusive.

Netflix, Prime or iTunes would suit me.

Its a month away, surely they should have a release schedule starting to advertise, it is bizarre. Won't be Netflix as Netflix won't fork out the asking price I imagine. My money is depressingly on Sky.

I still hold out hope it will be Google Film.

If they don't provide a proper outlet for people this side of the pond they deserve to have it pirated.

I'm talking about proper 4K HDR/Dolby Vision with Atmos (as WW84 was in the US). I'm sick of substandard bit starved content you get from Sky.

New trailer tomorrow and Snyder has been ramping up the exposure this week big time so I'm hoping that social media traffic will force streaming services to take notice.

Will probably be the same way as Wonder Woman 1984.
Did the Little Things stream here?

Nope, that's what I was saying earlier. It's theatrical release was meant to be this weekend in the UK and Ireland. I read during the week that internationally the plan was that films would be available 28 days after their theatrical release. This was the case for WW84 too.

The question though is that since the Snyder Cut does not have a theatrical release will it be different. In theory it should be day and date. Although at the same time Locked Down (a film that went directly to HBO Max and didn't get a theatrical release) is also slated for a theatrical release in most non-US territories and also never got a VOD release over here.

We won’t get told a release date until they know how they are releasing it.

The Apple, Sky and the streaming services could be bidding for it right now.

There are a lot of territories so they might be waiting until they have a lit more information on the wheels when & how before they make an official announcement.

Doesn’t Sky Atlantic also do ad breaks?

I hate breaks - I just want to watch an episode or movie the whole way through.

If Sky Cinema I could get it through Now TV I think but it's costly as is just paying for Sport.

As bad as Sky is over Satellite or on demand, now tv is considerably worse quality wise.

It is a Zack Snyder superhero film at the end of the day. Near guaranteed to be a stinker.

Snyder is an absolute mad lad!

Yep, his trailers always look lovely. But content wise it's meh and even visually tends to overdo it.

brevity · 14-02-2021 04:27PM

His trailers look good because the whole movie is full of trailer shots...

I'll give him the benefit of doubt and assume that was tongue in cheek. Some people are losing their minds over that line on Reddit and Twitter.

On the off chance it wasn't tongue in cheek, I fear for this Joker and Leto.

True, I’m just surprised about the amount of hype about it considering his other DCEU films were terrible.

It definitely seems to be the focus for a lot of people. It's hard to tell with Snyder he has a history of missing the point and not always being the most subtle. Still reserving judgement. To be honest, the rest of the trailer didn't do much for me.

pixelburp · 14-02-2021 06:06PM

It looks precisely like I thought it would be. Zack Snyder's tedious Gods Among Men theme with his superheroes, ramped up to Ludicrous Speed. However godawful the Whedon version was, the levity wasn't entirely unwanted. I imagine the earnest pomposity of "Zack Snyder's Justice League" will be off the charts. Even the name seeks worthiness.

And if 2020 wasn't so barren of blockbuster entertainment I mightn't even care. But who am I kidding, I'll watch this, hate it, and feel like an idiot for ever thinking another Zack Snyder superhero film might be different.

dublinman1990 · 14-02-2021 06:21PM

The new previews of Darkseid, Superman in his black suit & Joker look great in this trailer. Joker's dialogue definitely appears to sound a lot more menacing in this trailer. He doesn't give off any of the tone when compared to his time on SS. I bet comic book fans worldwide are going absolutely ballistic for Snyder's take on the movie after seeing this new trailer.

I wouldn't use the word levity but I expect the dourness to be lifted to a significant degree. Bruce is literally trying to bring people together for the greater good so they can save the world, so the tone *has* to shift to one that's more positive.

Tony EH · 14-02-2021 06:36PM

LOL, that trailer came pretty close to giving me an epileptic fit.

As an aside, Am I the only one who prefers it when superheroes do battle with human supervillains?

All of this space stuff comes off as really awful.

kerplun k · 14-02-2021 06:56PM

I thought the trailer looked decent enough. It looks like a completely different film to the other one.

I don’t think anyone will be bored watching this as they’ll be constantly distracted by comparing it to the other one, well, that’s what I’ll be doing anyway.

I don't entirely disagree, but nor do I agree; Synder's tone with these films has often painted superheroics as a burden, not a responsibility - a key difference that has informed both the tone and the way its cast view their calling. I wouldn't look for Richard Donner's Superman, and almost none of the Joss Whedon crap landed in that 2017 version, but instead we get this really overwrought angle. I genuinely don't think Synder GETS these characters. Or rather that his view is that very narrow sense of grim earnestness of purpose that made (say) Batman v Superman such a chore.

CramCycle · 14-02-2021 07:08PM

Already looks more finished than the first attempt. Not expecting great things but at least if it looks pretty I can park my brain at the door.

johnny_ultimate · 14-02-2021 07:11PM

I just don’t like the way Snyder’s films look. They’re all so post-processed beyond any reason that to be they just come across as ugly and artificial. There’s obviously room for artificiality in visual design, of course, but his work (right from 300 onwards) goes so overblown that I find myself distracted and turned off by the sheer volume of excess effects work and processing.
