@Dick Figgus how about you think. Humans literally conquered the planet because we are more socially capable than other animals. One of the greatest things humans can do that other animals cannot is we're capable of complex speech. It allows us to organize to collectivise in ways other animals cannot. It is only through cooperation that we conquered the planet and if we ever conquer the solar system, it'll be through cooperation, not through exceptional individuals as Elon Musk types, but through the incredible hard work of millions of humans of beings. Collaboration is what makes humanity strong. All humans are greedy to an extent into the extent that we're self-interested, but it is an all of our self-interest to build economic systems that make life as good as possible for the greatest number of people.
@@Feefa99 No. Because what induces people to cooperate is self interest and personal gain, not the "collective" good. What makes humans exceptional is our ability to think rationally for ourselves, not collectivize like a bunch of pack animals.
@@zylo999 So Superman, Batman and others want to save world for personal gain? You must have great moral compass. Been selfish is not rational, you just play with your own survival.
@@Feefa99 Superman, Batman, and others save the world for personal reasons. It's like the idea that Superman should just power a generator all his life to give free energy to the world.

Batman is a selfish desire on the part of Bruce Wayne, in order to cope, badly, with his parents' death. Collectivism denies humanity. We do work together, but voluntarily. Anything else is slavery. The pyramids were not built by slaves, but by contractors and workers who were paid. Slavery has retarded every economy that had it. Communism has retarded every economy that tried it.

I'll be honest, this one felt like you were circling around your points rather than fully relating it to what you actually mean in regards to the movie, especially in regards to Cyborg. You went off way too long on Aquaman an individualism, when at most you only needed a few minutes to describe that. All you really needed to say was that individualism is not the rejection of working together with others or putting yourself above other people, but rather ensuring your autonomy and ethics are not compromised or corrupted by other people, that you remain a good, moral human being. Spent way too much time on that, and it honestly got boring. As for Cyborg, you make a good point on how Darkseid embodies the death of individualism, but never on how Cyborg counters it. Whereas Darkseid wants to control and corrupt everything, Cyborg wants to help people in smaller ways, without needing to enforce his will onto others, whether it be saving the lives of people, helping a down on their luck mother suffering from a bad situation, or stopping the Mother boxes. Also, in your take on DC movies mistaking power for heroism, that's only partially true. Man of Steel was supposed to show an inexperienced but well meaning Clark struggling to use his powers to help people, as well as show the damage that Titans with so much power can cause, whether they be well intentioned or not, and the fallout is shown in Batman V Superman. Batman's acts of branding are never meant to be seen in a good light, they're a sign of his growing darkness, and its at the end where he's inspired by Superman that he turns for the better, his redemption being shown in the Snyder Cut, where he is a much more clear hero without losing his edge. Also, it's terrible sequel aside, WW 2017 was a pretty damn good movie that was only damaged because the studios mandated that Ares be the final villain, harming the main theme of mankind being capable of good and evil, and how at times, there is no Big Bad to defeat that saves the day. Overall, while I'd call Snyder flawed, I think he has a pretty good sense of what makes heroes heroic. Overall, gave this one a like, a good video. However, you could shave off some of the unnecessary parts and provide a more balanced focus, and I think your videos would be better.
Thank you so much FEE! I want you to know your points are not lost on me and I can't thank you enough for the priceless wisdom and ideals you put into every one of your videos. I'm a big hard man and you brought me to tears so many times "YES!!!!!!!".

ever since I found your channel, I’ve been feeling a little more sane and satisfied... you expressed my exact sentiments about issues in today’s society... and now you’re making a video about one of my favorite movie of all time?! i love you, man..
I watched the Mauler review, it truly felt tiresome and unnecessary. But, I enjoyed the movie. I feel personally that I massively disagree with Mauler on this but that's Ok.
"Guys, you have to understand, Snyder *was* the cringe all along." - MauLer And he's right, as he demonstrated from the early trailers, at least two of the cringey jokes that were cut were actually created by Zack, not Joss, he only cut them to cover his ass. And he did it again afterwards, when he cut out Joker unironically saying "We live in a society" at the last minute after the trailer dropped and it was ridiculed.
I haven't seen the movie, yet, but did he just tell Cyborg "with great power comes great responsibility"? Well, some things are universal, I guess🤷🏾♂️
Great channel, but definitely did not do your homework on went wrong originally, how we got to this point & what Snyder did to get this movie ready. He didn’t “re-edit” Josstice League. He simply completed the CGI to his film & filmed the MM & Knightmare scenes.
I loved the snyderverse. All three movies were awesome and I want to see the directors cut of suicide squad but ultimately I wish Snyder could have made JL2 and JL3
hi sir i watched the whole video and I cant help but agree with you more and as I watched this video, I literally cried a lot seeing that there is so much to learn on this film that we the fans were fighting for. I'm also an individualist but a little bit collectivist. man I'm gonna share this video to my friends. ireally appreciate you sir so much more that you literally breakdown one of the great lessons we need to learn as individuals right now.

I don't know if it was intentional, but fathers and father figures are really influential in snyder cut (which was the only one I watched). Pretty cool. And if I was Jordan Peterson I'd probably say Darkseid is the tyrannical father.
Omg your storytelling is so perfect! I watched all of your videos until now. I'm a writer for the brazilian channel "Visao Libertaria". We are translating some of our articles!
Batman v Superman wasn't about "Monsters". Yes, they fought a monster the end but that's not the whole plot of the story. Specially the Ultimate Edition.
9:27 all of that scenes that "doesn't matter" matters if u want to connect this to a sequel, matters if your are a fan of DC and u understand what are they connected to, wich is the main reason fans are puking crazy with zack snyder's version PD: #Restorethesnyderverse
Snyder had some redemption with ultimate edition of BvS, but many people skipped and hopped onto the narrative that Snyder makes bad comic book movies. His filmography including 300, Man of Steel, and Watchmen tell a different story.
I love your commentary of the Justice League Snyder cut your choice of words is extraordinary meaningful and thoughtful appreciate your thoughts thank you Mark McClintock
You say that ZSJL is sometimes confused about the difference between being powerful and doing good, but you never discuss how the movie (or trilogy) establishes what good is. Most notably, you don’t address Victor’s arc (that is paralleled by Barry’s) in which he accepts “I’m not broken.” This relationship between the self and individualism is essential, and in ALL of Zack Snyder’s movies. Perhaps you’d say this point is outside the scope of your video because you focused mainly on individualism. However, you brought up the point about good actions at the end, so I believe it should have been included.
Loads of people critiquing ZS JL seem to be ignoring that it is an extented edition. It is not a theatrical release and it is not trying to be. This is a potential last hurrah so we get everything. So yeah there's some self indulgent scenes that could be shorter. And yes you would get a better for theatrical release film by cutting this to 3:15-3:30. But saying that is a bit like saying the extended editions of LotR would have been better if they were just the cinematic cut again in a fancy box. Yes the theatrical cuts are tighter movies better for a theatrical release. But doing that to the extended editions would defeat the entire point of them existing...
Warner did not respond to demand from the fans. If it was up to them they never would have done it, but their corporate owners at AT&T forced them to do it as a way to promote their recently acquired purchase, HBO Max. The Snyder Cut was meant to be The Mandalorian for HBO Max.
@@FEEonline I read it. Nothing new that wasn't discussed. Zack's weakness was strong storytelling and he managed to get better at it. Results are seen in his Justice League (2021). One issues is 2 writers working apart. Between writers' names we see "and" instead of &. For this reason transition Batman vs Superman fight to Doomsday fight is weird. In that moment most viewers disconnect emotionally. WB managed to ruin Snyder's work. They have no patience or understanding how important character development is. Snyder needed more time and solo Batman movie after that not Justice League.
@@levi_exiled8579 I agree there needed to be another movie *at least* prior to JL. In fact, I wrote a mostly *positive* review of MoS, but with the large caveat that I thought his treatment of Superman was ok as set up (ie. Clark finding himself and "becoming" Superman) but not nearly enough for anyone to see him as a "beacon of hope for the whole world". All he did was smash a couple cities to pieces. Not very hopeful and a good way to make everyone terrified of you. But I think with MoS 2 that might have been resolved. And with a Batman movie that (for instance) featured the death of Jason Todd or something else that would show Batman's loss of faith in his own principles, it would have made sense why Batman was the Frank Miller version. But that's not what we got.
Unilateral leadership can have flaws as multilateral leadership but the opposite can also be true depending on the leadership model. Discuss some of the philosophical flaws however because I did not see such.
Absolutely fantastic video! And spot on review of the movie. I assume you have an opinion about Cyborg's bank dealings. Another thought - Batman perhaps didn't try to force Aquaman because he knew he couldn't, whereas if he knew he could have then he might have. That's an example of why it's so important to uphold gun ownership rights, so that individuals retain the power to remain uncoerced.
I do... but the bank thing is a little complicated. If he was taking money from "the bank" or from someone else's account, then it's just pure theft, which should be easy to see is wrong. But I think he may have created the money out of nothing, in which case he's basically just creating inflation... But the glib answer is: That's what the Federal Reserve does all the time, and usually the benefits of all the new money they create go disproportionately to the bankers, so I guess if you're going to inflate the currency, it's nice to know the new money went to someone in need. Either way, it's short-term thinking.
@@FEEonline That is an assumption, for all we know, he got the money from his own account. His dad is after all a very successful scientist who has a top level position at star labs, an with that, he probably also gets top level money. Cyborg is also the most advanced walking supercomputer in the world, there are lots of ways he could make legitimate money online with his ability.
@@emperorpicard6474 He _could_ be making legitimate money online, but there's no evidence of that in the movie. From the way he _expanded_ the money pile (rather than transferring money from a different pile), the viewer's immediate impression is that he was creating money out of nothing. A less compelling interpretation is that, since he presented it as a random award from the bank, he was taking money from the bank. I appreciate that, like Superman, Cyborg has the power to make the world much better or much worse in an incredibly short time, and he restrains himself to avoid creating big problems. Also like Superman, he is firmly separated from the rest of humanity despite having been raised among them, and it's important for a hero like that to do small heroic acts to stay connected to humankind and show that he doesn't consider anyone too insignificant to help. But the moral lesson being imparted to almost all viewers is that if you could just create a pile of currency (twice the median American worker's yearly income) and give it to a down-on-their-luck family in a major American city, you'd be doing a good deed. And this scene is specifically telling us about the priorities that define Cyborg. So I'm quite comfortable judging the scene on its own terms, and discussing how it's actually a little problematic because both straightforward interpretations of the scene involve stealing value from people who weren't guilty of any crime against that family. The problem would become more obvious if he tried scaling up that kind of "heroism" to everyone who was down on their luck, which brings us back to the individualist conception of rights discussed in this video. If anyone was interested, I'd also enjoy chatting about how Cyborg _could_ be helping vast numbers of people, including billions who are worse off than this one family, without stealing from anyone, and the challenge of showing that on screen in an efficient and entertaining way.
No dude.. Aquaman the film comes after this justice league film. Lol you need to check your timeline. It is after this film, Aquaman goes to his home town and rescues his mother and united the seven kingdoms.
@@jobsmine you act like they couldn't have taken out the dolphin speak in the snyder cut, or the contradiction about them not being able to breathe air. Those are the contradictions. as well as Mera's accent.
@@elementalscreator10 Yes in the comics atlantians can speak to the fish with their language. That how they understood each other. It’s not because they just read their minds by magic. Fishes/Dolphins communicate by propagating slwave sounds in the sea not by reading every kind in front of them. Also the director of Aquaman didn’t show but he explained to you in his interview.
@@jobsmine the fucking interview or the comics doesnt matter though. the movie is what matters, and that is an inconsistency. if it were worth keeping, it would've been in the aquaman film. you also act like snyder couldnt take the other movies into consideration and add elements to make those consistent. he easily couldve had a scene of ww flying, or the atlanteans suffocating on the surface. you seemed to have glossed over the breathing problem. so keep dodging I guess
Not sure if it was really good, or just much better than the theatrical release, but it's funny how there were no complaints about the darkness of tone, theme, and color because the focus is on the story this time.
17:56 Wait, healthcare, education is not a right? From the perspective of a Vietnamese - a welfare state, this sounds strange to me. In our country K12 education and the basics of health care are generally free, and we like it very much. Any thoughts on this?
i really enjoyed your video, it was very thought provoking. i don't think that warner brothers deserves credit for the remake of this film. it was only after at&t bought warner brothers and forced them, kicking and screaming, to allow snyder to remake it so at&t would have more content for their streaming service that this version happened. the fact that warner brothers has already unequivocally stated there will be no more films in this version of the dceu just underscores how resistant to the original idea for the film they were.
There's a funny little trend I'm detecting with Zac Snyder: If he's a fan of something, holds back on excessive slow-mo and isn't rushed, he's usually pretty good. 300, Watchmen, this, Aquaman, Man of Steel (for the most part); he's usually good as long as those three criteria are met.
It’s not the first time, not by a long shot. This kind of thing was happening as far back as when Conan Doyle was writing Sherlock Holmes. But it is that trend on a level and speed I don’t think it’s been before.
The only reason I Loved Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, Batman v Superman ultimate edition and Justice League is PHILOSOPHICAL DEPTH of superhero characters. I like you are on same page too. Philosophy make superHero different from superBad guys, not superpowers. Zack Snyder's superhero are not Abnormally Righteous like other superhero movies we see. They questions reality, they falls morally and rise again. They are more Realistic Human. I really Love to see more Philosophical base Superhero movies in future. Zack also once said, "This is our morden mythology to understand the world in some way...". In the age of Comedy Superhero Circus movies it's rare to find the movie which actually inspires. Mos and Bvs have Inspired me. individualism is always victims of collectivism, this movie series have Philosophical Depth and still got cancelled because it's against collective mentality, general entertainment. Nice video, I m looking forward to watch your channel in future.

Batman's acts of branding are never meant to be seen in a good light, they're a sign of his growing darkness, and its at the end where he's inspired by Superman that he turns for the better, his redemption being shown in the Snyder Cut, where he is a much more clear hero without losing his edge. Also, it's terrible sequel aside, WW 2017 was a pretty damn good movie that was only damaged because the studios mandated that Ares be the final villain, harming the main theme of mankind being capable of good and evil, and how at times, there is no Big Bad to defeat that saves the day. Overall, while I'd call Snyder flawed, I think he has a pretty good sense of what makes heroes heroic.
Overall, gave this one a like, a good video. However, you could shave off some of the unnecessary parts and provide a more balanced focus, and I think your videos would be better.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Thank you so much FEE! I want you to know your points are not lost on me and I can't thank you enough for the priceless wisdom and ideals you put into every one of your videos. I'm a big hard man and you brought me to tears so many times "YES!!!!!!!".

Keep shining light into the darkness my friends.
ever since I found your channel, I’ve been feeling a little more sane and satisfied... you expressed my exact sentiments about issues in today’s society... and now you’re making a video about one of my favorite movie of all time?! i love you, man..

That was really well made. Well done.

@Lol Umadbro yep
I watched the Mauler review, it truly felt tiresome and unnecessary.
But, I enjoyed the movie. I feel personally that I massively disagree with Mauler on this but that's Ok.
@Radical Larry That's your personal opinion.
I think it's not a Bad movie and that's my personal opinion.
"Guys, you have to understand, Snyder *was* the cringe all along."
- MauLer
And he's right, as he demonstrated from the early trailers, at least two of the cringey jokes that were cut were actually created by Zack, not Joss, he only cut them to cover his ass.
And he did it again afterwards, when he cut out Joker unironically saying "We live in a society" at the last minute after the trailer dropped and it was ridiculed.
These video essays are very well made and thought-provoking. You're a rare gem here
Love your channel . I’ll be gladly checking out your podcast. The first episodes about starship troopers I love that movie
I haven't seen the movie, yet, but did he just tell Cyborg "with great power comes great responsibility"? Well, some things are universal, I guess🤷🏾♂️
this is the only movie in years I'm clicking out of a review for spoilers. ty for warning me. I'm excited to see the movie, I just happen to be broke.
Another fantastic episode Sean! Great work
Man of Steel was an alien 1st contact story that featured a human journey .
And a great adoption story.
Not too shabby for a universe about gods
Great video, blown away. Your prep is obvious. I wish I could give more than one like.
Great channel, but definitely did not do your homework on went wrong originally, how we got to this point & what Snyder did to get this movie ready. He didn’t “re-edit” Josstice League. He simply completed the CGI to his film & filmed the MM & Knightmare scenes.

hi sir i watched the whole video and I cant help but agree with you more and as I watched this video, I literally cried a lot seeing that there is so much to learn on this film that we the fans were fighting for.

This is a very interesting take. What makes villainous versions of Superman and Snyder's that makes you care?
Oh, sweet sir. Your words calm me, as the dumpster fire consumes my friends and they agree with it.
My first time here. This is a great content, which is rare here on RUclips today.
Thanks for this video essay on the Snyder Cut and the importance of the individual.
Love the videos! thanks
Beautiful video
I don't know if it was intentional, but fathers and father figures are really influential in snyder cut (which was the only one I watched).
Pretty cool.
And if I was Jordan Peterson I'd probably say Darkseid is the tyrannical father.
Great analysis, your videos never fail to inspire me.
I feel special being here so very early.
Excellent job once again!
Omg your storytelling is so perfect! I watched all of your videos until now. I'm a writer for the brazilian channel "Visao Libertaria". We are translating some of our articles!
Batman v Superman wasn't about "Monsters". Yes, they fought a monster the end but that's not the whole plot of the story. Specially the Ultimate Edition.
*Mauler* went complete *Rip & Tear until it is Done* on this movie even the extended edition and it was Glorious and Magnificent!
Glad to see a fellow man of culture.
and it was glorious to see the snyder bots defend the film

9:27 all of that scenes that "doesn't matter" matters if u want to connect this to a sequel, matters if your are a fan of DC and u understand what are they connected to, wich is the main reason fans are puking crazy with zack snyder's version
PD: #Restorethesnyderverse
I remember how hated Snyder was when he released Batman vs Superman. Now he is receiving so much fan support, and I couldn't be happier.
Im soooo gladdd
Snyder had some redemption with ultimate edition of BvS, but many people skipped and hopped onto the narrative that Snyder makes bad comic book movies. His filmography including 300, Man of Steel, and Watchmen tell a different story.
I love your commentary of the Justice League Snyder cut your choice of words is extraordinary meaningful and thoughtful appreciate your thoughts thank you Mark McClintock
Im not a DC fan, but I really hope they take the right steps and actually make some more good movies. I would love the MCU to have a competitor
They don't need to compete with the MCU.
DC need to stick with their own.
That's why the animated stuff are soo good and the games as well
You say that ZSJL is sometimes confused about the difference between being powerful and doing good, but you never discuss how the movie (or trilogy) establishes what good is. Most notably, you don’t address Victor’s arc (that is paralleled by Barry’s) in which he accepts “I’m not broken.” This relationship between the self and individualism is essential, and in ALL of Zack Snyder’s movies. Perhaps you’d say this point is outside the scope of your video because you focused mainly on individualism. However, you brought up the point about good actions at the end, so I believe it should have been included.
I felt the point about what was good was clear. Good is actions which respect individual rights for all.
"Very neat, Alfred" indeed
Loads of people critiquing ZS JL seem to be ignoring that it is an extented edition. It is not a theatrical release and it is not trying to be. This is a potential last hurrah so we get everything.
So yeah there's some self indulgent scenes that could be shorter. And yes you would get a better for theatrical release film by cutting this to 3:15-3:30.
But saying that is a bit like saying the extended editions of LotR would have been better if they were just the cinematic cut again in a fancy box. Yes the theatrical cuts are tighter movies better for a theatrical release. But doing that to the extended editions would defeat the entire point of them existing...
Zack Snyder: If you reboot my universe you destroy the Snyderverse.
Warner Bros Discovery: The Snyderverse had its chance.
Warner did not respond to demand from the fans. If it was up to them they never would have done it, but their corporate owners at AT&T forced them to do it as a way to promote their recently acquired purchase, HBO Max. The Snyder Cut was meant to be The Mandalorian for HBO Max.
BVS wasn't even close to being disjointed mess. You kidding me? You even put in the "Martha" scene?! I am surprised that you didn't understand it.
Yeah. It was.
www.seanwmalone.com/reviews/2020/9/23/despite-some-cool-moments-batman-v-superman-a-disjointed-mess
@@FEEonline I read it. Nothing new that wasn't discussed. Zack's weakness was strong storytelling and he managed to get better at it. Results are seen in his Justice League (2021). One issues is 2 writers working apart. Between writers' names we see "and" instead of &. For this reason transition Batman vs Superman fight to Doomsday fight is weird. In that moment most viewers disconnect emotionally. WB managed to ruin Snyder's work. They have no patience or understanding how important character development is. Snyder needed more time and solo Batman movie after that not Justice League.
@@levi_exiled8579 I agree there needed to be another movie *at least* prior to JL.
In fact, I wrote a mostly *positive* review of MoS, but with the large caveat that I thought his treatment of Superman was ok as set up (ie. Clark finding himself and "becoming" Superman) but not nearly enough for anyone to see him as a "beacon of hope for the whole world".
All he did was smash a couple cities to pieces. Not very hopeful and a good way to make everyone terrified of you.
But I think with MoS 2 that might have been resolved. And with a Batman movie that (for instance) featured the death of Jason Todd or something else that would show Batman's loss of faith in his own principles, it would have made sense why Batman was the Frank Miller version.
But that's not what we got.
@@FEEonline That would be phenomenal.
Unilateral leadership can have flaws as multilateral leadership but the opposite can also be true depending on the leadership model.
Discuss some of the philosophical flaws however because I did not see such.
Absolutely fantastic video! And spot on review of the movie. I assume you have an opinion about Cyborg's bank dealings. Another thought - Batman perhaps didn't try to force Aquaman because he knew he couldn't, whereas if he knew he could have then he might have. That's an example of why it's so important to uphold gun ownership rights, so that individuals retain the power to remain uncoerced.
I do... but the bank thing is a little complicated.
If he was taking money from "the bank" or from someone else's account, then it's just pure theft, which should be easy to see is wrong. But I think he may have created the money out of nothing, in which case he's basically just creating inflation... But the glib answer is: That's what the Federal Reserve does all the time, and usually the benefits of all the new money they create go disproportionately to the bankers, so I guess if you're going to inflate the currency, it's nice to know the new money went to someone in need.
Either way, it's short-term thinking.
@@FEEonline That is an assumption, for all we know, he got the money from his own account. His dad is after all a very successful scientist who has a top level position at star labs, an with that, he probably also gets top level money.
Cyborg is also the most advanced walking supercomputer in the world, there are lots of ways he could make legitimate money online with his ability.
@@emperorpicard6474 that's true.
@@emperorpicard6474 He _could_ be making legitimate money online, but there's no evidence of that in the movie. From the way he _expanded_ the money pile (rather than transferring money from a different pile), the viewer's immediate impression is that he was creating money out of nothing. A less compelling interpretation is that, since he presented it as a random award from the bank, he was taking money from the bank.
I appreciate that, like Superman, Cyborg has the power to make the world much better or much worse in an incredibly short time, and he restrains himself to avoid creating big problems. Also like Superman, he is firmly separated from the rest of humanity despite having been raised among them, and it's important for a hero like that to do small heroic acts to stay connected to humankind and show that he doesn't consider anyone too insignificant to help.
But the moral lesson being imparted to almost all viewers is that if you could just create a pile of currency (twice the median American worker's yearly income) and give it to a down-on-their-luck family in a major American city, you'd be doing a good deed. And this scene is specifically telling us about the priorities that define Cyborg. So I'm quite comfortable judging the scene on its own terms, and discussing how it's actually a little problematic because both straightforward interpretations of the scene involve stealing value from people who weren't guilty of any crime against that family. The problem would become more obvious if he tried scaling up that kind of "heroism" to everyone who was down on their luck, which brings us back to the individualist conception of rights discussed in this video.
If anyone was interested, I'd also enjoy chatting about how Cyborg _could_ be helping vast numbers of people, including billions who are worse off than this one family, without stealing from anyone, and the challenge of showing that on screen in an efficient and entertaining way.
Technically Peter didnt beat up Flash because he knew he could, he defended himself from being beat up

My main dislikes were the contradictions w/ Atlantis. Negated a lot of things that occurred in Aquaman.
No dude.. Aquaman the film comes after this justice league film. Lol you need to check your timeline. It is after this film, Aquaman goes to his home town and rescues his mother and united the seven kingdoms.
@@jobsmine you act like they couldn't have taken out the dolphin speak in the snyder cut, or the contradiction about them not being able to breathe air. Those are the contradictions. as well as Mera's accent.
@@elementalscreator10 Yes in the comics atlantians can speak to the fish with their language. That how they understood each other. It’s not because they just read their minds by magic. Fishes/Dolphins communicate by propagating slwave sounds in the sea not by reading every kind in front of them. Also the director of Aquaman didn’t show but he explained to you in his interview.
@@jobsmine the fucking interview or the comics doesnt matter though. the movie is what matters, and that is an inconsistency. if it were worth keeping, it would've been in the aquaman film. you also act like snyder couldnt take the other movies into consideration and add elements to make those consistent. he easily couldve had a scene of ww flying, or the atlanteans suffocating on the surface.
you seemed to have glossed over the breathing problem. so keep dodging I guess
The 2017 JL wasn't the original ..This version is. It was fully shot and roughly arranged except for some effects.
Not sure if it was really good, or just much better than the theatrical release, but it's funny how there were no complaints about the darkness of tone, theme, and color because the focus is on the story this time.
17:56 Wait, healthcare, education is not a right? From the perspective of a Vietnamese - a welfare state, this sounds strange to me. In our country K12 education and the basics of health care are generally free, and we like it very much. Any thoughts on this?
Woohoo! An actual review in addition to the libertarian/philosophical analysis.
i really enjoyed your video, it was very thought provoking.
i don't think that warner brothers deserves credit for the remake of this film. it was only after at&t bought warner brothers and forced them, kicking and screaming, to allow snyder to remake it so at&t would have more content for their streaming service that this version happened. the fact that warner brothers has already unequivocally stated there will be no more films in this version of the dceu just underscores how resistant to the original idea for the film they were.
Why wasn't this in my subscription?
I have watched every single video of out of frame, why doesn't youtube know I likr out of frame?
There's a funny little trend I'm detecting with Zac Snyder:
If he's a fan of something, holds back on excessive slow-mo and isn't rushed, he's usually pretty good. 300, Watchmen, this, Aquaman, Man of Steel (for the most part); he's usually good as long as those three criteria are met.
Great work.
It’s not the first time, not by a long shot. This kind of thing was happening as far back as when Conan Doyle was writing Sherlock Holmes. But it is that trend on a level and speed I don’t think it’s been before.

I happened on to the video by accident but I fucking applaud your explanation of individualism!
The Snyder cut demonstrates the importance of character development.
The only reason I Loved Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, Batman v Superman ultimate edition and Justice League is PHILOSOPHICAL DEPTH of superhero characters. I like you are on same page too. Philosophy make superHero different from superBad guys, not superpowers. Zack Snyder's superhero are not Abnormally Righteous like other superhero movies we see. They questions reality, they falls morally and rise again. They are more Realistic Human. I really Love to see more Philosophical base Superhero movies in future. Zack also once said, "This is our morden mythology to understand the world in some way...". In the age of Comedy Superhero Circus movies it's rare to find the movie which actually inspires. Mos and Bvs have Inspired me. individualism is always victims of collectivism, this movie series have Philosophical Depth and still got cancelled because it's against collective mentality, general entertainment. Nice video, I m looking forward to watch your channel in future.
You should do one about the individualism of Max Stirner!
