Zack Snyder Reveals Some Key Visual Changes in Store for Justice League

Beyond just the obvious narrative differences between the 2017 theatrical release and The Snyder Cut, fans can expect some key technical and visual changes to be made when Zack Snyder's retooled version of Justice League debuts on HBO Max next year. Snyder revealed a few details on such changes to fans on the social media platform Vero. As pointed out by /Film, Snyder confirmed that he will alter the color of the orange-red sky seen during the theatrical release's end battle. Another exchange between Snyder and a Vero user -- picked up by Reddit -- revealed that The Snyder Cut will utilize a 1.66.1 aspect ratio, what is commonly known as "European Widescreen". [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/justice-league-snyder-cut-darkseid-confirmed-and-revealed-ign-news"] The Direct says the 1.66.1 aspect ratio "will give a taller look for the scenes of the film as it shows more of the top and bottom of the screen." Netflix's Marriage Story used this aspect ratio so you will notice the black bars (or mattes) along the sides of this frame from the film. Reddit user BatmanNewsChris made the examples below of what Justice League looks like in both its original theatrical 1.85:1 aspect ratio and The Snyder Cut's 1.66.1 aspect ratio: [caption id="attachment_2362444" align="alignnone" width="720"] Justice League's theatrical aspect ratio.[/caption] [caption id="attachment_2362445" align="alignnone" width="720"] Justice League in 1.66.1 aspect ratio.[/caption] So what do you think of these visual alterations to Justice League?
