on Zack Snyder's Justice League teaser shows off Darkseid, Deathstroke, and more

The new Zack Snyder's Justice League teasers just keep coming, and the latest may be one of the most revealing yet.

The latest teaser has only appeared on the Twitch service so far and provides new looks at Darkseid, Deathstroke, Joker, The Flash, and more. We do highly recommend you do not watch this one if you want to go into the film as spoiler free as possible. There is quite a bit in this despite it only being 30-seconds in length.

We aren't going to call out anything too specific in this video as it may be the most spoiler heavy we've seen as of yet. But the excitement to finally see this version of Justice League is definitely reaching new heights.

Zack Snyder's Justice League will debut on March 18 on HBO Max in the U.S. and in various other territories on other HBO services.

    Pretty cool footage. CGI is still off, especially that opening shot of Darkseid... It's not that it looks bad, it just doesn't look real & it's clear you're looking at a computer generated image. But I don't think we were ever going to get top level quality CGI from this particular version anyway.

    Ok, now we are talking!!! That was freaking awesome! That's how you show this is different and worth watching. Happy I can get excited about this again. That was badass. That fukcing stupid Joker laugh is unbearable but god damn, I can't believe they managed to get me pumped again.

      I don’t think that’s CGI...? Knightmare Cyborg looked pretty bad in the first trailer, though

      I think it’s a holographic communication link with SteppenWolf. So not exactly what he looks like. Lex had similar convo with SteppenWolf and Jor-El gave Clark a history lesson using similar type technology.

        Well considering it’s a hologram that is basically made up of dripping lava, that should be expected

      It’s a hologram. It’s a continuation of Steppenwolf talking to Darkseid during the first trailer.

    I thought this footage was awesome and they FINALLY released new footage!! That's how you show us this is different and worth watching!
    That god damn Joker laugh is unbearable though. Leto is just awful as the joker clearly. I don't mind the CG, I think that footage was badass
    PS What the hell? My comment got deleted again!
    Is it because I'm cursing with bad spelling? That's garbage!

            I think Sean added some more automated systems rather then just hire some mods and let them run things. Its amazing how we all throw abuse at each other what can get quite nasty from some people but saying f*ck or n*zi is bad.

      What’s the Over/Under on Darkseid footage? I originally had it at 5 minutes. The recent marketing push makes me feel different.

        under 10 for sure. Though in 4 hours, who knows.

      If you want to see more new footage, check out the hallelujah teaser, the trailer, and every single character teaser

      Leto’s Joker has only bad truly bad in about 2 scenes of SS

      Glad to see you’re not down on it anymore though, it’s coming up soon so just hang in there!

        It was probably a leak because Snyder hasn’t promoted it, especially with it being International Women’s day. Hence his WW tweet.

    As i said on another article the CG here for Darkseid is bad, that hand on Superman is quite frankly terrible. That said i love his voice and i like that he's going to have a bigger role then we thought.

      It almost looks they CGI the shot of Henry from MoS right after he killed Zod. But agree, the voice of Darkseid is awesome

          Kinda of annoying they are repurposing shots from MoS, Zack shot over 5 hrs of film originally plus given an additional 70 mill to finish the movie and they still use old footage to cgi for new shots..... super weird to me.

            I just watched the first two hellboys, and I’m thinking, damn Guillermo del Toro would have killed it at making a practical Darkseid design. With the practical effects and costumes that companies can make at such a high level now, it’s disappointing how much the DCEU and MCU have relied on CGI

    Low resolution leak from Twitch, but does the CGI looks bad for 2021 & Disney/Marvel's standards? Yes, it does, but it's on you gatekeepers for making Josstice League happen in the first place. The Snyder Cut is undoubtedly going to be a much better movie than the theatrical version, people will realize the ton of unnecessary footage Whedon has added with the collaboration of Geoff Johns, and cut from Snyder/Terrio's version.

    1. Sassybat Avatar

      blame falls on WB executives for freaking out after BvS's box office made under 900 mill. The theatrical cut of JL solely falls on the WB executives for pushing out that shit for their bonus. the WB executives had the two hour mandate and approved the rushed cgi (i'd still be pissed if I was Henry for what they did to his face) instead of delaying the movie.

    2. #Un-ReleaseTheSnyderCut Avatar
      #Un-ReleaseTheSnyderCut

      The theatrical cut is going to be considered far better by audiences and critics alike.

      Zack's movies are just plain bad. Zack's fans need to be able to admit that an be comfortable with it.

      Plenty of people like bad movies, they celebrate everything they like about them an what makes them good to them. It's just bizarre and toxic to attack everyone because people think the movies you like are bad.

        What if people who like Zack's movies don't think they're bad though? I certainly don't think they're bad and I'm not going to apologize for it.

        Death threats are pathetic and toxic, but they're hardly unique to Snyder fans. Do you not recall that RT disabled their comment section because Dark Knight Rises fans sent death threats to critics who gave it a bad review? Every fandom has em.

        I love ATTACK ON TITAN for instance, but its fans just went and bullied/harassed and sent death threats to the animators at Mappa cause they didn't like the titans being CGI. Marvel fans attacked critics who gave Endgame and Infinity War bad reviews.
        Even Toy Story fans sent death threats to critics because they brought down Toy Story 3's 100% rating to 99%.
        So yeah.

          Besides death threats are much more common amongst Snyder haters in my experience. I’ve received many, most of which were from him, funnily enough.

    Here's the biggest issue with the effects, there's very little contrast between the various CGI monsters or the hero shots or even normal every day shots.

    It's all black\grey\orange BLEH!

    Darkseid doesn't look any different than Doomsday from BvS, maybe even slightly less imposing. (and that one already looked like a generic troll from LoTR)

    Here are a few things I’m confused on:

    1. CGI: The CGI I’ve seen in these trailers is no better or worse than the CGI used in the Marvel films yet Marvel films get praised and Snyder’s films get heavy criticism. Here’s a fact; the MCU and DCEU both use a lot of green screen.

    2. Death Threats and Criticism: I keep seeing comments about how Snyder fans sent critics death threats and how people are viewing them as the ultimate toxic fandom. Isn’t The Last Jedi the reason why Rotten Tomatoes now has to certify fan scores because a group of people trashed the fan score without even seeing the film and send the score down to the 30s? Isn’t it the same group of people that send death threats to Kelly Marie Tran and Daisy Ridley and now both actresses won’t use social media? ALL let me repeat ALL fandoms have toxic fans. It’s not just the Snyder crowd. Also, to the people that bash Snyder fans, do you not realize how many people sent Snyder death threats too or people that actually said his daughter killed herself because Zack Snyder was her father? There was quite a few people that did all that just because they hated his films, but yet it’s only Snyder fans that are toxic. Makes sense.

    3. Bias: I look at the comments and I always see the same people praising Snyder and I always see the same people hating on Snyder. I feel there are just as many people that put Snyder on a pedestal as there are people just trashing everything the man does. Some of it is fair criticism and some of it is just mean and nasty and way too personal. I personally think both sides can be blind and toxic to each other. To Snyder fans, Snyder is not God and does make mistakes. He is not perfect. To Snyder haters, get off your high horse and stop blaming Snyder fans for everything. You can be toxic too. People need to realize both sides are the problem and both sides are very hypocritical.

      I watch reaction videos and send these clips to my General Audience friends and the response is so positive, almost over the top positivity. But I come to this comment section to be brought back down to reality. I’d probably be over confident if it weren’t for this site.

        You once called me toxic. How am I toxic when I just put down my honest thoughts and you respond like that? I’ve apologized at the way I talk to you that one time. I’m not a mean person and I’m not going to be mean to you again so why do you feel the need to be mean to me? You’ve been mean to me on multiple occasions and yet I’m the one you call toxic.

        1. Hunter Zolomon Avatar
          Hunter Zolomon

          Look i'm going to apologise for that comment, it was uncalled for and was made in the heat of the moment where i was feeling snarky. I shouldn't have been that mean or rude there.

      2. NinjaGamer13 Avatar

    3. NinjaGamer13 Avatar
      NinjaGamer13

      And of course you do nothing more than make a fair, honest post with solid points taking a relatively neutral stance, and predictably certain individuals who just so happen to be from the Snyder hate crowd come in and troll...

      Just on the topic of Snyder fans being toxic, yes it is true that all fandoms have a toxic subset, but the snyder fans take it to a new level. there is a reason there are several articles about the snyder movement being toxic and two paragraphs on the JLUE Wikipedia page regarding toxic behavior. it's to a much higher level than normal with these guys. Zack himself is toxic and outright enables it.

    Awesome trailer. CGI is on level as Marvel films (Captain Marvel, Black Panther and Infinity Wars all had the same type of CGI).

    However this seems like this was leaked early intentionally.

    Keep hearing rumors that WBs is purposely trying to bury this film since they did not want it released however ATT felt differently for their HBOMax streaming service needed original content.

    It also seems curious that Kong Vs Zilla is scheduled 10 days later and WB announced the new black superman announcement prior to this being released (effectively trying to kill Cavill's solo film).

    Just happy this is coming out. Would’ve been cooler if Darkseid had some prosthetics on the face and limbs with added cgi. Prolly would’ve been cheaper and easier but oh well. Can’t beg and complain maybe New Gods will update him better.
