Why didn't they release this version in theaters from the start?
Too long. Also does it matter, the movie would have still been panned. Maybe panned even harder since they would have wasted even more of people's time.

They wanted more screenings per day

WB cucks told Snyder to make the movie more focused on Batman and to trim down Superman's role.
Basically WB cucked Snyder, but Snyder agreed as long he was able to release his own cut on blu-ray.
Snyder essentially was WBs sacrificial lamb. People crying about why he supposedly hates Superman...when it was WB who did.

First post best post
At best all it does is clear up some character motivations, people still would have been mad about the overall tone (this is a batman movie being marketed as a superman sequel), puzzled by Jesse Eisenberg's Max Landis parody, annoyed by the length and bored stiff by the pathetic attempts to build the one-off movies.
>>70882002
Executives panicked 2 months before release.
Instead of the R 3-hour cut they went with a more accessible 2.5-hour PG-13.
Talk about mistrust for the audience.

This scene right here, fuck. To all the cucks who claimed Snyder didn't "get" Superman...fuck you.
Probably one of the best distillations of the the character ever on screen. And it was cut from the movie. Fuck you WB.

trips confirm. fucking ay man

>Too long
People managed to sit through all 3 Hobbit movies. They'll live.
>>70882444
Agreed.
>>70882002
3 hour cut means less showings per day, people will need to take more time out of their day to make the trip. And it's not like it's LotR.
I hope this vindicates the movie, because I enjoyed it immensely

There's nothing wrong with the overall plot of BVS (it's pretty standard superhero fare). Where it failed in the theatrical version was introducing a bunch of disconnected plot points without guiding the audience through them and giving the characters a coherent arc wherein they develop into their viewpoints at the end of the film.
From the looks of it the ultimate cut pretty much resolves (or goes a long way towards resolving) those issues. It won't turn it into a masterpiece but it can finally be seen the way it was meant to,and possibly even be considered GOOD film in its own right.
>>70883471
Why should it matter what other people think if you enjoyed the movie?
>>70883749
I genuinely don't care what other people think of my tastes; I unashamedly love The Counselor, Spring Breakers and Only God Forgives. I just think it's a shame that the most visually stunning capeshit film to come along since Sin City or Watchmen gets a dogging way worse than it deserved/

You may make one and only one edit.
Use it judiciously.
