Episode description

For two long years, the Snyhard masses cried out to Warner Bros. for justice, and, against all odds, the impossibly dumb has become improbably real: #ReleaseTheSnyderCut has delivered us Zack Snyder's Justice League.

Now we can finally answer pressing questions like "Can doubling a bad film's runtime make it good?"

This week we're diving into The Snyder Cut, comparing it to Joss Whedon's 2017 Justice League hatchet job, and dissecting the cinema of Snyder to find the essence of his popular appeal.

Also, where the hell is spooky Jesus Joker, Zack? The promotional materials promised us spooky Jesus Joker.

THIS WEEK: Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) and Justice League (2017)
