In the early morning of May 21st, Zha Dao officially announced at the mos viewing party that Zha Dao's cut version of Justice League will be launched on hbo next year

Screenshot of the official announcement

Although I don't know the quality of the film, I'm still looking forward to it. Today, I will speculate on the plot of the edited version of the director based on the stills released by the director before (including personal guesses)

The structure of the big plot should not be very different from the theater line, and the taillights should not change the direction of the big plot, so there will only be changes in details and branch lines.

The first is the beginning, the theatrical version is the beginning of Superman's video, and then the master, these two clips have been confirmed as supplementary shooting

This paragraph said that the taillights wanted to be more funny, but Warner refused.
Just look at your mouth

According to the concept map and some rumors, the original beginning should be the factory where Batman discovered the incubation of strange monsters (updated on August 25, Zha Dao revealed in the live broadcast that the beginning is the death of Superman from another perspective, similar to the beginning of bvs and another The battle of Zod from perspective, I guess Batman perspective or Apocalypse perspective, and then Batman discovers the Demonoid Hatchery)

Then it should be the master who went to Neptune, who refused to join. The theatrical version deleted a lot of scenes, but the dialogue between the master and the sea king should be retaken, because the background is obviously inconsistent

This background, the button map is too obvious, and the sense of violation is very strong

From this to the first assembly of Zhenglian, the plot remains the same, with a female hero organizing terrorists in the middle (but there are changes in this paragraph, as you can see from the preview, the bomb finally exploded)

This mouth shape doesn't match the lines

The past and origin of steel bones (completely deleted, only star points can be seen from the previous notice and Zha Dao's dynamic, I have not seen similar plot analysis on the Internet)

Steppenwolf invades Paradise Island to snatch the mother box (this section is relatively intact, but the tone has changed)

Update August 23: Here Steppenwolf has been replaced with a new image

The woman received a signal from Paradise Island, went to Batman, and mentioned the ancient war in the conversation (a lot of changes have been made here, and a lot of deletions have been made, and the scenes of Darkseid have also been deleted)

The master told the heroine, Sea King, to refuse to join

Darkseid leads the alien monsters to invade the earth

Some subplots of The Flash (all about breaking the window to save Iris have been deleted, only the prison visit)

Barry Broken Window

Steppenwolf invades Atlantis, grabs the second mother box, and briefly fights Aquaman. Aquaman asked Mera for his mother's fork (Vico also appeared here and should have a lot of scenes here, he should have given Aquaman the fork, but there was not a second left)

After that, people were recruited. The master found Barry. Cyborg didn't know if it was the same as the theater version. The staff of the star laboratory was robbed, and Batman took the female hero Flash to find Gordon for help

Steppenwolf kidnapped Dr. Stone, and after the discovery of Cyborg, mastered flight and Zhenglian and

Zhenglian assembled to fight Steppenwolf for the first time, some small details in the middle have been deleted

After this, there is a big change. After everyone returned to the Batcave, the master had a nightmare when he mentioned bvs.

Here in the trailer, when the lord talks about a darker future, he should be referring to the nightmare.

The conversation after everyone took off their uniforms has also been retaken. You can compare the trailer and the costumes in the theater (updated on August 23, this time there are more clips, and the master’s attitude is different from the theater version)

After deliberation, it was decided to resurrect Superman, dig a grave, take a coffin, and resurrect. Zha Dao released some stills about this place, but a lot of scenes were deleted. There should have been scenes of digging a grave and pushing Superman's coffin to the Krypton spacecraft.

The resurrection of Superman and the single-player couplet were all without major changes. A few scenes were deleted. There should be a lot of police around. After that, there was obviously a problem with Batman's appearance. Nearby, dare to come, not from Batman. (Updated on August 23, Lewis saw Superman come over by himself)

After Superman left, Steppenwolf took away the mother box. The plot changed greatly. The original plot was that the mother box was in the star laboratory. Steppenwolf broke into the laboratory, and Zhenglian came to the rescue. Find Steppenwolf. Cyborg can't defeat Steppenwolf, Dr. Stone blows up the lab and dies, the mother box is taken away (Updated on August 23, this previous guess was wrong, Dr. Stone wanted to stop Steppenwolf by destroying the mother box, and sacrifice)

Everyone came to the star laboratory
Batman Aquaman looked at each other, they seemed lost or something
Steppenwolf captures mother box
Cyborg defeat
Cyborg tears
Dr. Stone looks like he was blown up or electrocuted
Dr. Stone is gradually broken down
The background of the heroine here is consistent with the place where Dr. Stone died.

Then Zhenglian assembled to attack Steppenwolf's base. It was prepared to be deleted before the war. The theater version is where everyone listens to Haiwang's funny speech, and the guide version seems to be more serious. Also removed Superman Returns, which was added to the disc.

Batman hands a fork to Aquaman
Everyone listens to Neptune's funny speech

Superman is definitely a black uniform

In the final battle scene, the background color was only changed until the steppe wolf. The battleground for the final battle is not in Russia, and may still be in the United States. There is a version circulating on the Internet. Everyone lost to Steppenwolf, and Superman saved the field, but the defeat of Steppenwolf was not smooth. If so, the original Steppenwolf should be very strong. The scene where action actors rehearsed to fight Steppenwolf was also released before. In short, in the end, Cyborg separated from the mother box, Aquaman provoked the Steppenwolf, Superman gave a punch in the air, flew to the heroine and was beheaded, and everyone saw Darkseid through the blasting channel.

Batman used the Apocalypse weapon and changed from a cannon to a gun in the theatrical version. I don't know if the original version was filmed.
If 3v1 exists, it's probably here, the theater line will be changed to the female hero alone

Theatrical version changed to split axe

Then say something uncertain:

Hal Jordan, the general trend of the plot can't tell where he appeared. It is rumored that he followed the army in the decisive battle and did not become the Green Lantern.

Death Knell, the cinema version of Death Knell only exists in Easter eggs, but Daben once shared a video of the death knell in the flying fox fighter, plus Batman's suit has been damaged before the decisive battle, it can be speculated that there are some reasons for the death knell before the decisive battle. Get on the Flying Fox fighter and fight against Batman in a new suit. The reason is unknown. It is rumored to save Luthor.

The Flash Through Time and Space: There is a scene where the Flash is running in the trailer. This scene is interpreted as traveling through time and space. In the theatrical version, the background color was changed to save a Russian family. Because there is no Russian family in the Zha Dao version, it must be Not the original setting. There are two kinds of sayings about traveling through time and space. The first one is that after the first battle with Steppenwolf, Batman let Flash travel through time and space to the future, and saw the scene of Batman's nightmare in bvs. The other is the steel bone during the decisive battle The separation of the mother box fails and a big explosion occurs, and Xiao Flash travels back to the past to let the steel-bone separation mother box prevent this failure.

Louis talked to Martha, and Zha Dao confirmed that Martha here is pretending to be the Martian Manhunter, only knowing that this scene appeared before Superman was resurrected

Updated on August 23, the new trailer has a scene about Batman's nightmare

This zoom in to see Aquaman's fork, Lady's shield, Joker's poker and the Justice League logo

In addition, Zha said in the live broadcast that there is a statue of Thomas Wayne, but I really can't find it. This probably hints at the content of Zha Dao's Zhenglian series and Batman's nightmare. Zhenglian was defeated by Darkseid, Superman was blackened by the anti-life equation because of Lewis' death, Aquaman died in battle, and Batman organized the rebel army. He bought kryptonite in private and was caught and killed by Superman. Flash once again traveled through time and space to remind Batman of the past.

These are some of the plots of the guide version that I can roughly find. There may be some mistakes. Please correct me. If there is something I don't know, please let me know.
