Seems there's some conflicting information going around.

For the record, I couldn't care less about the aspect ratio. Whatever Snyder wants is fine by me. We'll find out the actual aspect ratio soon enough anyway.

Fan talk from elsewhere, but it adds to our speculation here:

"The Black Suit clip is 1.43:1 aspect ratio.
I am also a bit confused as to Zack's intentions. He spoke about needing to rework a lot of VSFX shots since they were likely rendered in 1.85:1, which was going to be the theatrical exhibition and there was one shot in his Black Suit clip that was definitely cropped (the Medium shot of Superman saying "I'm assuming you're Alfred") because it was likely unfinished and taken from the 1.85:1 master.
Maybe what he'll do is finish up all the FX on a 1.33:1 master, release the HBOMax version as a 1.66:1 and then release the blu-ray/digital download in its original format or 1.43:1."

It sounds complicated - I rest easy knowing Snyder has this under control.

Everything related to the technical and visual side of things, Snyder is second to none. As it has been pointed out by others in youtube comments in some of the videos shared above, even the camera he uses for a video chat looks cinematic.

Rewatched Snyder's Watchmen - no matter what anyone else's opinion of the film, it remains one of my favourite comic book movies (even if it's for slightly personal reasons) and I like to think the tone of his Justice League will be close to that.

Love this artwork from Mariano Navarro & HernĂ¡n Cabrera with the black suit and original Steppenwolf design. It's my current iPad wallpaper. I like their depiction of heat vision as something that stings like a minor irritation - this Steppenwolf looks like a complete beast who could hold his own against the entire League.


I love this fan art.



I heard some rumours that if ZSJL is a huge success, the Snyderverse could explore other "avenues" such as animation. That wouldn't be a bad idea. Maybe making an animated short about the Martian Manhunter's tragic backstory as the only living Martian left in the universe before coming to Earth? Maybe he inherited the name Swanwick from the scientist who brought him to Earth, and takes the name as a token of gratitude? Or how about an animated Batfleck feature, as a prequel of sorts to BvS. With the Coronavirus situation stopping every film department at a standstill, I'm open minded to any possible animated projects that explores these DCEU characters.

As it says in the article, it was taken from Snyder's Vero account.

Meanwhile, Darkseid can't hold back from his excitement.

A 30 second video and a low res still. Already better than the entirety of that "other" version. F**k the trolls. This is gonna be epic.

Ah, I see

Ray Fisher has accused Geoff Johns of gross misconduct.

Quote from: Ray Fisher
During the LA reshoots for Justice League, Geoff Johns summoned me to his office to belittle and admonish my (and my agent's) attempts to take grievances up the proper chain of command.

He then made a thinly veiled threat to my career.

This behavior cannot continue.

Man, if this is true then Johns really is a scumbag. And yet, he still works in the entertainment industry despite Josstice League's failure. This goes to show he has strong networking ties, because any other producer in his position would've been chased out of town.

But then again, Hollywood is such a screwed up industry. Hopefully, Fisher isn't the one who gets affected by this.
