Speaking for myself, I'm a superhero movie fan first and foremost, so if this is well done and enjoyable it won't bother me in the least. But you'll notice I said
movie fan, so I'm in Jye's camp in that I would prefer it be released in theaters. And regardless of how many hours long it ends up being on HBO Max, it won't erase the mistakes WB/DC made starting with BvS of rushing the shared world process, nor will it make me forget the disappointment I felt watching it unfold on screen for the first time.
As for Darkseid, I'll admit to not knowing his backstory (I didn't know who Thanos was in 2012 either), but if Snyder didn't want people to mock him then he shouldn't have shared a photo ripe for derision. I mean seriously, what is the average person supposed to make of that? And what's with the tiny head? Is it because the CGI for it wasn't done, or is the body actually his version of a Hulkbuster suit? I mean, the proportions are that far off.
