Ep 69 – Zack Snyder’s Justice League AKA The Snydercut (2021) with Angus MacDonald and Matt Barrow

“There Are Six, Not Five. There Is No Us Without Him.”

The Snydercut is one of the weirdest things to happen in film in a long time. The Justice League came out in 2017 which was finished by another director and had a sub-par reception to it upon it’s release. Since then, the internet and even cast members were demanding the big studios to help realize Zack Snyder’s original vision of this movie with #ReleasetheSnyderCut. With enough persistence and whining, the internet finally got it’s way and the people actually got a new cut of this movie. So join Tuong, Matt Barrow, and Angus Macdonald as they watch over four hours of brooding and a lot of ideas crammed into one thing as they talk about Zack Snyder’s Justice League!

That’s why on this week’s episode, Tuong and Alli “Mondo Burger” Harris take a look at this very special moment in movie history and watch the classic Nickelodean film about fast food rivalry and “being a dude” – Good Burger!
