Justice League: The Snyder Cut Limited Series (2021) Trailer Review

So now the next trailer from DC Fandome is that for Zack Snyder's Justice League, so I am going to look at the biggest parts of the trailer and really how much different this version looks compared to the original movie. 

This will be a 4 part Series instead of a film

There have been rumblings that instead of being a 4 hour movie that this film would be split into hour long episodes and it was confirmed that it will be presented as 4 hour long episodes for this cut of Justice League. I mean this gives the cut a chance to achieve everything Snyder wants and also delve more into the characters especially the new ones like Cyborg and The Flash. 

Darkseid is in this trailer

One of the biggest things people have been excited for is seeing Darkseid and he is the first thing we see here and, honestly he looks fine but it is clear the CGI isn't finished yet and hopefully with another year it will look perfect then. Also I am curious how much he will actually be in this film, as it is clear Steppenwolf still plays a large role here so I do wonder if this will be nothing more then a cameo, or will Darkseid be the big villain they have to take down. 

Steppenwolf has a new design

In the original cut of Justice League Steppenwolf was a really dull villain with a terrible design. In this trailer the design certainly looks better with a more metallic look, I mean he could still be a dull character but at least he will look cooler this time. 

We will see more of Cyborg and The Flash

In the trailer we see Victor Stone playing American Football before he becomes Cyborg and we see Barry Allen saving Iris West as an early version of The Flash. I thought the original cut did a good job with these characters, but the chance to see them more fleshed out can make them even better and really make them memorable. 

The Knightmare scenes from Batman V Superman will return

When Bruce Wayne had a dream of a future where Darkseid and Superman had taken over the world, it felt out of place and was never addressed in the theatrical cut of Justice League. We only see one shot in the trailer but it sees Parademons and The Justice League sign destroyed which is clearly a follow up and actually might make sense with this cut of the movie. 

Silas Stone is killed 

One big change that we see here, which is also a bit of a spoiler is that Cyborgs father is killed in this cut of the movie by the Mother Box. In the theatrical cut we saw how their relationship affected Cyborg so it will be interesting to see how this version of the movie treats it. 

Superman has his black suit

For a long time people have wanted to see Superman in his comic book Black suit. Now in this film we will see it and it looks really good, I mean we have no idea how he gets it but hopefully that is as interesting as the rest of the show looks. 

This looks completely different to the movie

I enjoyed The Justice League film for what it was, a fun over the top action film but it is clear that this is not that. This trailer shows this series will be its own thing and that Snyder had his own vision for the film and it will be great to see it. 

Overall

Overall, I think this cut of the movie looks really interesting and this trailer achieves so much with literally having a few lines of Dialogue. I hope that we get to see Zack Snyder's true version of the film and lets hope it hits the level that this trailer shows.
