He did it in Man of Steel as well, and i think the Whedon Cut, and the scene was filmed with Camille in the red and blue.

It’s not really slow is just chaotic, the first 2 hours scenes are very short and disjointed, jumping from location to location disregarding chronology and we don’t even follow any character until act 2, things just happen, also many sequences have no connection to the plot like flash’s scene Wonder Woman in the museum, Cyborg and the waitress, this movie is poorly edited that’s why is 4 hours they just slapped whatever they had together without any criteria

It's shown in BvS that she knows a lot about historical relics. Barry is known to usually be late in the comics, he's working multiple jobs to work towards getting his dad out, it gives his character purpose and drive. It's also a tease for reverse-flash. The thing with cyborg and the waitress just shows us what he's capable of, not much to it, but a nice scene that also displays his ability to help those in need.

"'The black suit, you can say that in modern Krypton, when he left, everyone was wearing black suits,' he told Minutemen. 'So it is sort of linked to, in some ways, the old world. I think is a more direct relationship to his family.' 'In a lot of ways, the blue suit, to me, represents his kind of place on Earth,' he continued. 'The blue suit is his suit of a hero, the suit of his destiny, whereas the black suit is more personal in a lot of ways, more about his family. One is outward, and one is inward.'" - Zack Snyder

Thanks for posting this. This is such a good thought.

[@pocketofus7428]

Plus it foreshadows the injustice league story.

[@MrE_]

I still think it was pointless to give superman the black suit in this movie. He should have worn the blue and red suit for that final shot of them all together

[@pocketofus7428]

But showing him with the black suit foreshadows that the justice league will be broken and effected by Superman’s actions point to him choosing the black suit instead of the red and blue. The reason he’s wearing the blue and red one when the injustice timeline starts is because he believes that he is the greatest protector of earth even tho he is a dictator. And him choosing the black suit shows that he really did just die and come back and he needs time to heal he can’t just see his girl and mom and instantly be perfectly fine even tho it looks that way.

[@MrE_]

@@pocketofus7428 That's like making superman come out of the grave with a face tatoo for no reason, it's a pointless cosmetic addition.

When Cyborg was in the Kryptonian ship, he saw visions of Lois being dead. Maybe that's one memory that Superman had after being back from the dead and that's why he was attacking the Justice League.

But when he saw Lois being alive, he quickly snapped out of it.

​ @Alonzo Richardson It dependts on the point of view. A few years ago this movie wasn't even a reality, we were all believing that Snyder's view for the JLA was done for. In the middle of a pandemic, with theaters closed, he managed to launch this movie. And right on it's first week of release, HBO Max servers crashed, critics and audience ratings are very good and a sequel maybe a thing now, at least more now than it ever was. So i don't believe Zack it's that disappointed with the overcome.

I think the thought behind it was good but it was very poorly executed in that scene in Whedon cut. And not written very well either. When Batman replies to Cyborg's idea that they should keep moving saying that that's just a way to lose slowly - that's a very good showcase of the experience you speak of.

If you listen closely to that scene, it talks mainly about Clark being the hope that cuts thru the dark so I feel the black suit was chosen based on how he was feeling and a cullmination of his various lessons from his fathers

[@shawnsms29]

I actually thought it was gonna be longer. Now I wanna see the darkseid fight haha I think superman choose the black suit to regenerate or to power up. Because there was a scene where he flew into space to look at the sun. In other movies and the comics he does this intentionally to get a power boost or go max power. Which would explain why steppenwolf was so easily defeated.

[@DCGX]

This is what I was thinking as well. Though, given the mentioned lack of subtlety Snyder has for Biblical symbolism, I can see this scene read that way too.

i think clark wore the black suit because it's the colour of death and he just came from the dead. also, it could've been an aesthetic choice because it straight-up looks badass and makes the fight scenes against steppenwolf more epic and snyder was clearly going for an epic, dramatic vibe. simple.

The black suit isn’t only a reference to the comics it’s also a call back to Man of Steel. Remember that the Kryptonians, like Jor-El & Zod, wore black suits exactly like that under their armor. Remember that Clark briefly had one on during his face to face with Zod in the scene where Superman sunk into the sea of skulls.

I liked this version more too. The one line I miss, was when Cyborg and Wonder Woman are talking on the street about him and he says, "If these are gift's, then why am I paying for them?" One of my favorite lines from the movie.

[@rushpan93]

But see it's a bit wrong use of the idiom I feel. You'd never say "I did wrong and I'm paying for it", it would be "I did wrong and I'm paying the price for it". Nitpick I know but I sense a little weirdness in that line. Tbh, I find the Snyder cut line "What part of this looks like gifts to you?" sounds a bit more of a natural response.

[@greg-snapr4136]

I don't have a line of dialogue that I wish was left in, but I do have one I'm glad was taken out. Superman to Batman...("You won't let me live, you won't let me die.")

[@ReedRichardsPhD]

One scene that I was bummed out they didn't include was the "Accidents" scene between Victor and Barry. It perfectly reflected the chemistry that they had behind the scenes and I would actually prefer that from Zack's "Do you think she (Diana) would settle for a younger guy?" or something around those lines. But overall, this was a beautiful movie and an exhilarating experience. If Zack ever reads KZbin comments, Thank You for not giving up on us and making one of the best superhero movies that I've ever seen!

[@grumpyrock]

The only thing from the Whedon cut I think that could have worked had it had stayed, was when Batman and flash are talking and flash says he’s never really fought anyone before and Batman tells him to “Save one!”

[@CarlosHernandez-qh9vj]

That was a great scene I missed it

[@fuzzykoala6168]

I did like that scene a lot, but it doesn’t fit very well. In Whedon cut, Barry was basically a loser, but in Snyder he isn’t and knows battle. (IMO)

[@andrewshandle]

​@@fuzzykoala6168 Not really. He's still kind of bumbling in that entire scene because he's clearly way over his head. The "save one" scene was good in the theater version. There's no doubt that Barry is a better character in this cut, but he's not used to fighting anything like Parademons or Stephenwolf.

[@fuzzykoala6168]

@@andrewshandle true, but when I saw that fight scene, to me, it felt smooth. The hole idea of that fight was to show how separated the team was, everyone doing their own thing. When Batman gives guidance to Flash it takes a little of that aspect away.

[@ericlariviere5]

Black suit mirrors his father Jar-EL’s suit in men of steel when he fights Zod’s army on Krypton, it links well with the scene especially because Kal EL hears his father’s voice(s)

[@ChrisKnowles1170]

For me, a black outfit doesn't mean hopelessness. Instead, an outfit that goes out of its way to not have black, or shadow, or incorporate darkness suggests the wearer believes they can prevent all bad things. The thing they hope for is not happily ever after, it's happily ever always, happily has been and always will be. Wearing black, like Batman, shows a hope that your sorrow can be the last. It acknowledges the pain that your failures have brought, and uses them to motivate yourself to prevent further tragedy. That said, *all* black outfits are a bit much.
