good riddance
Angry Joe will be pleased
White washing isn't a real thing. The people insisting someone from one particular race get a part over someone of another particular race are the ones who are racist. If you don't like who's cast, raise the millions of dollars and make the movie yourself.
Well they certainly didn't save much by fireing Snyder holy shit I gave up after 30mins of that garbage
Firing Zack Snyder is the best thing that could ever happen for DC movies. Took them long enough.
The question is why it took so long to fire him.
Snyder is great!but circumstances (demise of his daughter) lead to not so good! Leave him alone people!
ZACK SNYDER WAS NOT FIRED. HE WAS SABOTAGED BY UNGRATEFUL and DIRTY-MINDED PEOPLE. IT IS A REAL SHAME and DISGRACE. JUSTICE LEAGUE IS A MASTERPIECE.
Thank God! Please leave and never come back
But she has high cheek bones…
Thank God, Now Justice League May Have Some Good Future…..
How is black panther whitewashed?! It has 2 white people in it
If you can perceive Snyder s dc universe as a never before seen take on the characters it's actually an enjoyable universe
Hey remember when they changed a traditional white redhead Mary Jane to someone who wasn't a white redhead in Spiderman Homecoming and anyone who brought it up as something they were against they were labeled racist?
I feel bad for him, but I think he's been forgetting how to tell stories lately. Wish the best for the man anyway
They didn't fire him…his daughter died and he decided to step down in order to take some time with his family. Show some respect
So this confirms that there is a Synder cut that exists out there
Looks like The Snyder Cut isnt coming
It's honestly too bad about the DCEU…
Guess I'm buying a ticket for Annihilation. Anything to piss off the SJW snowflakes.
Best thing ever
Justice League was unwatchable no matter which way you cut that pile of garbage.
You can easily tell we live in a world rule by morons when a film is getting criticized not for the script or the direction or cinematography, but for the skin color of the actors
unbelievable
Its Warner Bros fault for signing him on for 3 DC movies in the first place, before even seeing the commercial or critical reception of man of steel
I thought Justice League was boring AF. I would have actually prefered SNyder directing it, because BvS was atleast fun two watch (the second time).
Good!

As much as i enjoyed some of Snyder's works, i think that's a major step in the right direction. Now please lay off the writing team too.
Also, the whitewashing protest against Annihilation is retarded… as 99% of all whitewashing protests are.
I'm sick of people complaining about whitewashing. I don't care how an actor looks just so long as they can act very well. And I understand that people of different races should be given a chance to act in major film roles but Hollywood normally picks people that can act very well over how they look. And I think it's for the best to be honest. Don't get me wrong, I bet there are people of different races that can act very well as well. But Hollywood doesn't want to take that risk. For example, you wouldn't want to buy a game that had terrible story and gameplay but realistic graphics. You'd rather have a game with an awesome story and gameplay even if the graphics aren't realistic. And one last thing, just because I said I don't care how an actor looks doesn't make me a racist whatsoever. I'm for equality.
Big surprise about Snyder being fired from JL. I just bought the film and watched it today on digital download and LOVED it! Seriously, I don't know why this movie gets so much hate. As a stand alone film it was great and as a longtime DC superhero hero fans, my wife and I really enjoyed it. Don't know what Snyder had in mind but Joss Whedon and the crew put together a great film. I do realize we are in the "it's cool to hate something because" generation but seeing how I'm not a mindless sheep, this movie deserves more credit than it gets and I really am looking forward to the sequel. I also work hard and buy my own things rather than pirate movies for free from the internet and I plan on buying the Blu-ray 3D version of the film next month.
I’m both relieved and sad for him considering his daughter died.
earnings request prefer occur seriously conclusion sure past.
