Because i watched the first one i am tempted to watch the redux or whatever. My brother called me today and we talked about it and i realized i never rewatched the first one (a sure sign i did not like) and can i really be pumped for this?

I've actually heard some good stuff also but between the tourney and bsg i don't know when I'll have time

About to take the plunge.

If you don't hear from me again, i didn't survive. Tell my mom I love her.

The lack of concern kinda hurts

Started it last night, finished today.

So agree, this is a much better film. Slow motion scenes set to sad music are about 20% of the movie so that helps explain the expanded time. So I could never watch this whole thing in a movie theater. But at home, with a break, it was pretty good i'll admit. I like the expanded storylines for Cyborg and Flash. They don't seem as just thrown in as before. Liked seeing Martian Manhunter although i'm not sure why they crammed him in here. I think i enjoyed the last battle scene here more than the other as well. I still hate that Superman is the end all be all, but that's either film. I kept wondering why he needs anyone else. Despite the length, movie kinda flowed nicely still. I never thought I would say it but i enjoyed this one. The epliogue was needless, and shoehorning Joker in there was a waste. What's his face still sucks as Lex. Did tease some interesting stuff that will never come to pass. I think I noticed the acting in this one more, not sure why. But i like each person, and felt it was a good job done in their roles. So overall, was pretty good. Loads better than the first try.

definitely a massive improvement over the first one and quite the enjoyable experience for anyone whos remotely a DC fan agreed with Boc about the joker scene that was horrible and i really wanted to just stop watching but thankfully i didnt Spoiler + because it leads into the absolutely amazing martian manhunter cameo that was such a great scene to end on. Martian Manhunter was a huuuuge part of the original JL animated series in the 90s and it was a nice hat tip to that show

I love him btw. The epilogue with him was cool, the scene in the middle felt kinda weird

Spoiler + Steppenwolf was leagues better in this one. This movie felt more fleshed out, but I can't say I really remember the first movie all that well. Except a few key scenes. I only remember an odd looking Steppenwolf being the villain in the first film, and that they quickly put together a team with almost no build up, revived Superman and then defeated the bad guy.

Basically everyone had a story this time and even Snyder described Cyborg as the "Heart of the team" and was more central this time. Honestly the more i think bout the movie the more i liked it. It's like someone cooked this movie and they just microwaved the first one.
