Kind of a shame that the new characters like Martian Manhunter and the DC version of Thanos won't get any further Snyder adaptations. MoS and BvS were pretty painful, but at least he finished it out pretty solidly. It has his signature vision and gravitas much like Watchmen with music and slow-mo. It has some pretty legit violence and blood. So it has some nostalgia in that respect. I remember thinking some of that flashback stuff in the theatrical release could have some potential, but was clearly wasted in that cut and it is pretty epic (although some of Diana's voiceover exposition is a little annoying.) Anyway, it's clearly sort of a generic comicbook plot, pretty obvious rip-off of Marvel. But the treatment is actually sort of cool. It's a shame DC didn't set up some of these characters a little better, because suddenly we learn of these outerspace superbeings. Should have had a decent Green Lantern movie and incorporated some of that, but DC bungled their "universe" royally on terrible shit like Suicide Squad and that awful Harley Quinn movie. I actually feel a little bad for Joss Whedon being tasked with cutting it into a single 2-hour movie. That was a shit sandwich. And honestly it was just a horrible decision on the studio's part.
It is indeed a truly bizarre situation these two versions of this movie exist. But we're very fortunate that Snyder got to finish his version in such an uncompromised way. Because it's a fu#k-ton better.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Why do people still claim MOS was a bad Superman adaptation? Not every Superman adaptions are light hearted.
Kingdom Come, one of the best graphic novels out there had Superman turning his back on the human race for 10+years. And when he returned, he gave all all meta an altamatum. Stand with him, or fall.
MOS till this day still has the best realistic godlike fight scenes.
Maybe you need to go back and read Kingdom Come again. But since you’re so bias, I won’t hold my breath. But I’ll say this, Clark was so done with their bullshits, he went to Apokalypse of all places to see if Orion could help him imprisoned the metas who refused to follow the rules.
He came to Orion LOOKING FOR SOME ADVICE on the matter.
When Orion suggested he could just dump them on Apokolips (as he didn't believe they would cause more trouble than his own subjects), Supes wet his pants... as usual... and declined.
You mean the fight scenes where Superman is at least partially responsible for the deaths of thousands of people?

Yes, realistic. When both the hero and the villain are sociopaths.

This was not the campy Superman 2 where the villains were dumb enough to follow Superman outside the city.
Zod made it clear he would kill everyone to make him suffer.
I also didn’t see any bitching when Superman fought Darkseid/Brainiac in JLU. Clark was casually tossing Darkseid around, destroying everything around him.
In the retcon Death of Superman. Their fight was shook the Earth itself, and Clark never once tried to take it into space.
But for some reasons, MOS is hated on for its realistic destructions when godlike beings fights.
And what does any of this has to do with Clark being a cuck? Seriously, this is you’ll to go answer to anything Superman not being a happy go lucky character.
The original character before the Crisis wasn’t such a nice guy to began with.
