    "graciously offered" like the motherfucker didn't get paid

    Yeah sure fine.

    Its still ridiculous to paint him as the bad guy here and indicative of how off the rails this movement went.

    I will say from my moral high horse of liking josstice league and being interested in seeing the snyder cut, I think investing so much of your ego in a brand that you're going to post a video of you angrily destroying your justice league bluray is petty, but I don't think it's much better to be on the other side carefully following and judging the crimes of the ungrateful snyder cult as if they are seriously threatening the integrity of the artform

    there will actually be twice as much on-air time due to a slow-mo musical scene featuring numerous smash cuts

    I think the sequence works better as a Scarface homage:

    Everyone should watch Blood Machines. It is extremely weird and composed of equal parts tits and fleshy spaceships.

    Oh, and when Gus called the final scene "climactic space battle is basically naked ladies doing ballet in a ruined space hulk graveyard in bisexual lighting" he was in no way being hyperbolic

    It's upsettingly horny and extremely anxious and the writing makes no sense and there's synthwave playing the entire time and it's fucking insane, go watch it.

    that said I'm gonna a billion % unequivocally agree that turning it into episodes instead of a 45 minute movie was a horrifically stupid mistake because it absolutely skullfucks the flow of the thing, and with a movie that's such a purely experiential beast you really don't want to do that.

    I'm definitely waiting for all of Blood Machines to release. I've watched the Turbo Killer music video enough times to equal a theatrical cut, so I am willing to wait and absorb it all t once with my jaw unhinged.

    I don't need to carefully follow the Snyder Cult to hear from/about them endlessly, I can unabashedly assure you

    He was also a fucking amazing actor. Like his role in Thoroughbreds is fantastic and watching it you just wish he had had decades more time to be in stuff. God it sucks he's not around.

    I kinda wonder if Shudder is trying to Castlevania it and get a series out of it if it proves popular? Or if its just standard goose the ratings by making it episodic.

    i would watch more of it tbh

    I want to see the Bette Davis cut of What Ever Happened To Baby Jane where she replaces Joan Crawford in every scene with the leftover CGI buttholes from Cats.

    I do not ever want to watch any version of Cats but I do very much want the butthole cut to be out in the wild it just seems wrong to withhold it

    The whole thing is out, it's just not sown together - you have to watch it as 3 episodes instead of a whole film.

    I would like no CGI cuts of movies, they’re neat.

    Yeah i think a lot of these things fall afoul of what I’m going to call the Snakes on A Plane fallacy

    Where an idea is so gloriously stupid it gets people talking on the internet for a little bit, but by no means will any of them actually shell out money in a year or two to see it.

    The problem with Snakes on a Plane is that Samuel L. Jackson wasn't playing himself and he didn't have some variation of "motherfucker" in every single one of his lines.

    "Stewardess, can I get a motherfucking Coke? I'm Samuel L. Jackson, motherfucker, and I want my motherfuckin' Coke."

    This could easily be rectified in "Snakes on a Plane 2: More Motherfuckin' Snakes on More Motherfuckin' Planes."
