Forget about the Snyder cut. Forget about the extended Joss Whedon cut. Forget about all that extra footage that was shot. The chances are you’ll never see it. If the new details for the Justice League Blu-ray and DVD release are anything to go by, Warner Bros. has no plans to appease fans with footage lost on the cutting room floor. Instead, they are releasing one (that’s right, one!) new scene that wasn’t seen in theatres that shows the return of Superman.
It seems Warner has made an executive decision to ignore all the petitions and requests for a longer and fuller version of their latest superhero film. The discs will feature a bunch of behind-the-scenes featurettes but, sadly, no substantial footage. There isn’t even a director’s commentary segment available.
While it’s still possible that Warner Bros. is planning an extended cut down the road, it seems highly unlikely now. Regardless, it’s hard to believe that the studio thought that a single bonus scene would be enough to win fans over.
Here are some of the other special features:

Godamnit. Maybe later
WHY? Isn’t it obvious Snyder’s style wasn’t right for DC? Why the outcry for his cut? Please explain.
Because he shot scenes in JL that people wanted to see but because WB decided they were too dark they had Whedon reshoot 80% of the film. On top of that they cut 40 minutes of his reshot scenes as well.
We literally saw a trailers full of shots that never made to the final cut.
He cut 1 hr of footage and reshot the rest of it .
How did Whedon even think that incomplete CGI is OK
Whedon didn’t have much say in the matter – this was a decision taken at the highest possible level in order to pad the departing CEO’s bonus as much as possible by getting Warner a smaller amount of money from Justice League before his cutoff date rather than getting Warner a significantly larger amount of money from a properly finished JL but too late to affect his own payout…
WB: “Justice League left you wanting more? Guess what?”
So they’re really “sticking it to us” huh? They give 0 fucks about fans
They’re probably gonna try milk it with a new cut every few months.
Obviously WB is run by idiots
WOW WARNER BROTHERS REALLY WANTS TO FUCK DC
Chetan Shah
No interest milking money?
WB goes out of it’s way to disappoint fans. Yet again.

It seems like the best thing for DC is Disney buying the division. Never thought I’d ever say that, but here we are.
I want an unedited Mustache-included cut…
Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
I hope all of this is untrue.
Michael Hopefully it isn’t true!
Very unzesty
The DCEU sux…plain and simple!Outside of a few moments that showed potential,the universe is severely lacking in direction.Maybe Snyder wasn’t the best director for the series but at least he had a vision,unlike Whedon who just does what he’s told.The film had horrible editing,horrible direction and worst of all,incomplete.Maybe Disney should just pick DC off of WB’s hands and give the fans what they really want…a universe that is as fulfilling as the MCU.
Smart business strategy would to issue this, deny that you’ll every have an extended cut, make every penny you can off of it, then in a year or so, release the extended cut.
They need to make every possible penny off of this as possible. But we will see longer cuts some day. Maybe even more than one, like they did with “Watchmen.”
The same folks who buy a movie to watch the “bonus footage” must be same type who watch award shows to hear political commentary. JL not “Citizen Kane”? There’s a shock seeing how Ben Affleck is Batman! You all B-d about that but STILL pay to see film at theaters + will buy this one too…
