JUSTICE LEAGUE Snyder Cut vs Original: 23 Biggest Changes

Zack Snyder's Justice League is finally on HBO Max. Here are the 23 biggest changes from the theatrical cut.

No matter where you stand on the great Justice League debate, one thing can be said for certain: the theatrical cut and the Snyder Cut are two very, very different movies. With double the run time, Zack Snyder's Justice League has both added new and extended scenes to the mix and subtracted some of the less harmonic moments of the original, making for a vastly different tone and viewing experience than the first time around.

Trying to recount every single difference would be an exercise in futility--the cuts really are that unique from one another--so in lieu of comparing apples to oranges, we've rounded up the biggest departures the Snyder Cut has to offer over its theatrical cousin. These include added scenes, new storylines, and totally removed or recontextualized moments that change the movie.

The Snyder Cut is just unbelievable, everything was so much better.

[TeluguSuperhumans]

This movie totally changed my opinion towards DC movies ( For the better ) 😊

[justtoolit]

The Snyder Cut pretty much does everything better than the Josstice League theatrical cut

[jacobbarroquillo]

The black suit is to help with the regeneration of his powers, which makes sense because the color black absorbs the most sunlight.

The Snyder music completely changed the tone of the movie for the better. It was never suppose to be like the avengers with AC/DC and pop songs playing in the background.

This is what happens when DC creatives are not forced to be like the Marvel movies..

Synder’s cut is dark, dangerous and leaves you wanting more!

4 hours... NOT ENOUGH!

[Omarboyy]

Without a doubt this is the best DC movie we've gotten since the dark knight I don't know what the hell WB was thinking choosing Whedon's version over this masterpiece

[RilesPC]

Flash reversing time was one of the coolest movie scenes I have ever seen. The music, the dialogue, the animation. I had chills

[miguelmills]

I love how they actually gave cyborg some story

[benaffblack]

You forgot the entire ressurection sequence!

- Aquaman and WW being present to dig up Clark
- The league infiltrating Star Labs
- Cyborg working with the Kryptonian ship and it basically telling them to not do it.
- Flash showing that he could time travel early on
- Superman when he sees Batman and they remove his shitty dialogue.
- Showing us how and why Lois arrived to the memorial...instead of her just showing up out of nowhere

That 4 hours fly away fast, while the 2017 one feels like forever

"this is alfred, i work for him"
Bruce Wayne - 2021

[tony.aces]

He wears the black suit in the comics when he comes back to life.

[wwfera]

The theatrical version seemed like a colorful comedy pg-13 version where it didn't feel like anyone was in danger.

[Megantheestallion]

The biggest change was that the snyder cut is actually good

[jackohalloran]

flash getting shot makes more sense when you realise he was running in the exact same spot so even if the parademon didn't hit him directly he was running so fast that he ran straight into the energy blast

[frodobaggins]

Why would the Parademon burn to ashes and leave a mark with 3 boxes?
Snyder Cut makes more sense

[clonusmaximus]

Dropping the awkward Joss Whedon humor is on its own a major win for this cut

[eugenemcnair]

ManHunter clearly explains his reason “the world needs you too Lois” although not having superpowers her work for He Daily Planet in his eyes is heroic..

[areasevenpro]

The Snyder Cut also made Batman more useful and less suicidal than in Josstice League.
