Zack Snyder's Justice League Explained

Zack Snyder's Justice League finally came out and every fan boy on the internet has taken his/her opinions on how good the movie really is! Well, there's no doubt that what Zack Snyder was able to do is a stellar feat and because Justice League Snyder Cut was made available to us on HBO Max, Snyder was able to make the movie R-Rated and not cut anything for theatrical purposes. On top of that Zack Snyder was also given chance to add scenes on top of his original version and it is because of that Jared Leto was seen as The Joker, a role he played 5 years ago in The Suicide Squad. But wait what am I here to explain about the well explained Justice League Snyder Cut?

Zack Snyder Justice League Explained
What I mean by explanation is that why Zack Snyder's Justice League is something that could not have happened 2 years ago and why it is of such importance. Theatrical Cut of movies do get a Director's Cut often and fans do get to see what the director had envisioned for them sans the studio notes. However this process took a long time back in the day, for evidence one can go ask Ridley Scott as to when he finally got to share his true vision for Blade Runner.
With Zack Snyder it was very different because with Blade Runner it was still Ridley Scott in the Director's chair but with Justice League 2017 Warner Bros had put Joss Whedon in that chair to edit, writed and add potential scenes to the Justice League which according to them fit the blockbuster requirements and in doing so hindered with Zack Snyder's vision massively.
It is because of massive online chatter and numerous fan petitions that Zack Snyder Justice League was still alive in the minds of fans, and not just DC Fans in general. The decision to Green light Justice League Snyder Cut would also be attributed to the fact that Warner Media needed a win for HBO Max and Snyder Cut emerged as one project to potentially be of help under lockdown.

Zack Snyder's Justice League An Argument for Creative Freedom
Having watched the 4 hour long Snyder Cut I can say that it's not perfect. Zack Snyder's Justice League is Dark, Gritty and sides with the wonderful shots over story (sometimes) but that's what Zack Snyder does and you can't expect him to deliver a Disney produced Film. So when Warner Bros directed Joss Whedon to bring his Avengers sensibilities to Justice League it took away the essence of Snyder from the movie.
A director making a Biopic or a fictional story about A GUY DRESSED AS A BAT, still manages to leave part of themselves in those products. And it is just wrong for Studios to sit and decide what would be best for that Film to have or not have based on potential monetary statistics.
Another case for Creative Freedom and it's positive is that, Zack Snyder's Justice League is trending worldwide since its release and in countries where HBO Max is not available the demand is being satisfied by numerous outsourcing services hired by Warner Bros.
Zack Snyder's Justice League Restore the Snyderverse
Speaking of Zack Snyder's Justice League and the part where I stressed upon Creative Freedom, fans have taken to the internet once again only now to Restore the Synder Cut. To people who are reading this Warner Bros agreed to release the Snyder Cut but made sure that it won't be Canon for DC Extended Universe going forward.
Now I don't know whether Zack Snyder's decision to make it 4 hours long and shooting additional scenes with Jared Leto and Ben Affleck was all a plot to entice fans and restricting Warner Bros from going forward with a different approach.
DCEU is a franchise and much like all franchise it is a damn expensive one and one can agree as to why Warner Bros don't want any complications with the plans they have already had put their money on.
As a fan I'm happy to see a Director's true Visions come to life but it'll be certainly interesting to see if fans can storm hand in hand to grant Zack Snyder another win against the suits by Restoring the SnyderVerse.

The Binge Flix Conclusion Zack Snyder's Justice League
If the article sounds like a statement written by a DC Fan, trust me I'm very much in the other camp. The words are coming from a place every Creative has been where one needs to compromise based on what would be right for the business.
Zack Snyder's Justice League Cast includes the usual, Ban Affleck as Bruce Wayne/ Batman, Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/ Superman, Gal Godot as Diana Prince/ Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Arthur Curry/ Aquaman, Ezra Miller as Barry Allen/ Flash and Henry Lennix appeared as Martian Manhunter.
Snyder's Justice League gave us a fleshed out Steppenwolf as well as our glimpse of Darkseid.
Zack Snyder's Justice League is available on HBO Max and on BookMyShow when it comes to India.
