Justice League Snyder Cut 2 FULL Breakdown and Sequel Movies Explained

 

What are we holding on  somewhere i'll never suspect Welcome back everyone this is going to be my  justice league 2 in justice league 3 video the breakdown of the story the zack snyder revealed  with all of his storyboards he pretty much gave us   what the entire story for all the justice league  sequels is going to be so there's a lot of stuff here if you're brand new to the channel be sure  to subscribe to get all the videos obviously we just got done watching the justice league snyder  cut but careful for spoilers if you did not watch that movie because like the last 30 minutes of  the movie and the epilogue tagged on at the end  pretty much tell you where the story is going next  in justice league 2. but what happened is way back in december 2015 jim lee said that zack snyder  brought him on to the project to draw these giant like 10 foot tall storyboards with the pitch for  justice league 2 and justice league 3 to convince  the studio to spend the money to make all three  movies but what i'll do is i'll just read what the story is and talk about where this all fits in and  with the studio warner brothers and zack snyder has said about the chance of us actually getting  this story of the sequels in some form or another but the big question is whether or not that's  going to be a movie or it's going to be as a comic book so he starts by saying although originally  pitched as one film we believe the character arcs  

of our heroes and villains along with the epic  battle with darkseid which unites the league the world and the entire dc universe warrants two  films instead of just doing one sequel he goes on to say however this does not mean that you have  two films centered on dark sides invasion rather justice league 2 would be a very grounded personal  and character-driven film that would follow the justice league both together and separately as  they mend old wounds on the road to becoming better and stronger heroes while lex luthor  recruits a league of his own the injustice league made up of revenge driven villains introduced in  the hero solo films dr maru from wonder woman 2.that was actually dr poison i think originally in  zack snyder's idea they would have introduced dr poison in a bigger way during the sequel to wonder  woman captain cole from the flash movie ormond black manta from the aquaman movie and the riddler  from ben affleck's version of the batman movie  

these villains would link all of the dc films  together now remember this is back in 2015 so it's the original version of the spin-off films those  wound up changing a little bit like the aquaman   movie changed a little bit the flash flashpoint  movie has changed a little bit the wonder woman  movies have changed a little bit then he goes on  to say like empire strikes back in the last harry potter film justice league 2 would end with a  cliffhanger revealing only at the end of the film lex and his league are connected to dark side  then flash forwarding five years into the future   where darkseid has taken earth that's basically  the nightmare future that we see at the end of the justice league snyder cut then he goes on to  describe the hero's arcs through parts 2 and 2a   with lois's help the back from the dead  superman will learn to become clark kent again  

feeling more human than ever he and lois start a  family remember how they teased lois was pregnant wonder woman would reconnect with the amazons and  her mother eventually becoming their new queen  and rejoining these isolationist warriors with  the outside world meaning connecting themschira with the outside world aquaman with the help  of mira will bring the seven kingdoms together seven kingdoms of atlantis originally becoming  the one true king building a new alliance between the oceans and the surface that was what the  whole unite the seven tagline was about unite   the seven kingdoms of atlantis before atlantis  sank into the ocean the flash will free himself from the past releasing his father from prison  with cyborg's help and learning how to masterhis time traveling abilities literally  becoming able to be in two places at once cyborg will evolve both into the modern day god  of the digital age and into a human once again and batman will ultimately sacrifice his life  for the unlikely friends and the woman he loves  

leaving behind a legacy that will never truly die  but he starts with the plot of justice league 2 by saying the justice league united we open with the  justice league in action during a natural disaster working as the efficient powerful team they become  weeks after the first justice league movie ends they act together they save lives in the aftermath  the justice league return at the only headquarters they know the bat cave bruce secretly meets with  lois both of them still searching for lex luthor the meeting ends after lois tells bruce  that superman needs her more than ever   bruce knows lois is hiding something else probably  the pregnancy he was gonna set this whole batman lois lane romance through the sequels that  would play out then he talks about lex luthor recruiting the injustice league meanwhile deep in  the brazilian jungle lex locates dr maru that's dr poison from the wonder woman movie still alive  experimenting on herself prolonging her life and testing new chemical weapons on unfortunate  human lab rats like an obsessed stalker maru has spent decades collecting information and artifacts  on diana and the amazons now that diana has become known in the world lex offers meru a chance at  revenge the same revenge he wants on diana's friends superman and batman maru accepts in the  atacama desert with meru's help lex breaks orm in  

black manta out of the desert prison where they  were imprisoned at the end of the aquaman movie outside of central city in iron heights  penitentiary lex finds leonard snark captain cold where he was left at the end of the flash movie  or where he would have been left at the end of the flash movie it offers him a chance to advance  his weaponry and take down the fastest man alive  upgrade his cold gun with alien technology then  there's this whole sequence with them intercutting   between the injustice league and the justice  league characters in metropolis superman asks lois lane what she was going to tell him as he hears  the second heartbeat inside of her back in the   louvre in paris wonder woman and one of her fellow  themskerans who came to warn her about steppenwolf apparently in the previous version of the movie  there was an amazon instead of them just firing an arrow so an actual amazon came to warn her about  steppenwolf they're trying to find a way back to   themyscira but because of the magic that zeus put  on it they can't do it without some help from the lasso of truth then as the lasso of truth is  giving diana all these visions she suddenly   sees a vision of herself as a dark diana as the  goddess of war battling with superman she kills  him this is probably another vision of a potential  nightmare future back in central city barry allen is at the courthouse with iris west and cyborg and  with the help of the rest of the justice league  

they agreed to reopen his father's case so this  is just the beginning of him getting him out of prison then back in atlantis aquaman and meera are  in this fierce battle to unite the seven kingdoms of atlantis they're at the last seventh kingdom  called the unseen and even though he winds up beating their king in battle he refuses to rejoin  the other seven kingdoms so he hasn't completely united quote unquote the seven at this point  yet then back in the bat cave cyborg is helping alfred upgrade all of batman's technology  to hyper tech level batman moves deep into the canadian wilderness doing recon following  a lead on lex luthor and winds up running into the riddler who seems like he's been awake for  days maybe weeks he has this giant beard there's writing all over the walls it's kind of like the  inside of the cell at the end of the shazam movie he says luther asked the question and i had to  know the answer he reveals that lex luthor came   to him with information about the anti-life  equation remember that was going to heavily figure into the sequels it was the big symbol  that was carved into the ground whenever darkseid and then later steppenwolf smashed it with their  weapons apparently there was this riddle connected  

to the secret of the anti-life equation and the  riddler solved it and that's what drove him crazy then as he reveals all this information to batman  he winds up killing himself then as batman returns   from the wilderness back to the bat cave and  alfred they reveal that lex luthor has found all three mother boxes then at the three rivers  dam helicopters survey the area as lex is on the scene and activates all three mother boxes his  true plan to destroy the justice league and take the power of the anti-life equation for his own  then as the three mother boxes are coming together and lex luthor thinks that he's achieved his  goal a boom tube opens darkseid and da'sod step out as you would expect darkseid promptly takes  the power of the anti-life equation for himself back in the bat cave superman learns of darkseid's  arrival and tells bruce please protect lois lane  

she's my world she then reveals to batman that  he's not the father of her child superman is the father of her child then back at the site of the  battle lex luthor reveals darkseid has the power   to kill superman in darkseid acknowledges him and  says i don't want to kill him i want him to submit  
so that sort of explains why you have this evil  superman in the nightmare timelines and lex  luthor gives him the idea that it's all about the  girl lois lane saying that if you want superman to submit you have to kill the girl even though  superman is supposed to be able to beat darkseid be that powerful the reason why he's able to  kill lois lane is because he uses a boom to to instantly travel to the bat cave and kill her  so that's how you wind up with this scene the vision that cyborg got from the mother boxes of a  potential future with him cradling her dead body and then breaking in dark side turning him in all  while this is happening you have all the other members of the injustice league enacting these  attacks in different justice league people's home   worlds like dr maru goes and unleashes this poison  gas on themyscira killing all the other amazons  

then apparently back in atlantis orm and  black manta were going to kill aquaman but mira would survive that's how she winds up in that  nightmare timeline but not aquaman then back in the batcave batman finds out what's happened with  darkseid killing lois lane superman turns on him immediately becomes evil superman and tries to  kill batman then just as lex luthor is basking in his victory over the justice league evil  superman shows up and burns him on the spot and they sort of cut to black the transition as lex  luthor starts screaming and gets lit on fire then they cut to five years later and you're in the  nightmare future like everything is a wasteland on earth like batman is taking the survivors to  the bat cave or where the bat cave used to be then we meet a new green lantern it's implied that  it's killwog the dead green lantern from cyborg's vision that the mother boxes gave him but this is  him when he's first showing up to planet earth his  

ship is crashing and he's trying to contact  someone from the justice league but no one's picking up batman finds him and saves him from  the rubble of the ship then a bunch of pair demons swarm them but they get saved by deadshot  another batman villain showing up who's now working with him in the future flash shows up  helps them destroy the rest of the pair demons   then green lantern explains what's been happening  in the rest of the universe with darkseid and the anti-life equation how he's paving his way  conquering the universe they go back to the remains of the hall of justice underneath wayne  manor mira shows up with some drinking water  then batman explains their time travel plan to  green lantern how they're going to send the flash   back in time to warn him at the correct point in  time to save lois lane so that superman doesn't wind up getting turned and though able to defeat  darkseid cyborg then reveals that he's created  

the cosmic treadmill from the comics that flash  is going to use to time travel so while flash and cyborg are busy sending flash back in time  you have batman the rest of the survivors trying  
to distract evil superman with this big operation  darkseid sends in this huge army of parademons so you have this massive battle going down superman  winds up killing batman which i think is from this flash forward vision that cyborg gets but here's  the way that he killed him superman kills batman with the original kryptonite spear that batman  had intended to kill superman with in batman v superman but batman's planned his word to flash  travels back in time and is correctly able to warn   batman at the right point in time and plays to  save lois lane batman's able to push lois lane out of the way of darkseid's omega beams just in time  to save her and superman shows up enraged but this time instead of going after batman blaming him  for lois lane's death because she's still alive now with superman's child he flies a dark side in  a rage and starts fighting him then in present day darkseid starts a full-scale invasion of earth  with his fleet like he talks about at the end  

of the snyder cut and they have their version of  the avengers end game final battle on earth with pretty much every character from the dc universe  you've ever heard of coming back in the way they  end things seems very similar to the iron man  avengers end game ending with him sacrificing himself to snap the infinity gauntlet batman winds  up sacrificing himself to land the killing blow on dark side and destroy him completely then in  the aftermath lois lane eventually gives birth to her child they name it bruce kent after bruce  wayne in honor of his sacrifice but remember she's with superman he doesn't have any power so he  doesn't become superboy or anything like that  
but in 20 years there's this ceremony where  commissioner barbara gordon is honoring batman's sacrifice 20 years before she tells lois  when are you going to tell him looking at her son that the secret she'd been keeping this whole  time is that her son bruce kent was secretly  bruce wayne's child as batman's true son he winds  up taking up the mantle of the next batman don't  
know how everybody feels about that lois lane  giving birth to batman's child one of the spiciest things i've ever heard of them doing in a dc movie  then the moment you go out on in justice league 3 like the epilogue or the post credit scene you see  a shot of bruce kent in the cape and cowl rising  from the shadows in gotham with a bat signal  shining in the sky so he actually was going to show us what bruce kent batman was going to look  like what his costume was going to look like as  you can see here this is jim lee's mock-up of it  his gauntlets look a little bit different but the batman symbol on his chest is very similar to ben  affleck's frank miller inspired dark knight symbol and for those of you that really wanted a man  of steel sequel like man of steel 2 zack snyder did say that justice league 3 would have very much  been a direct sequel to man of steel it would have  
just been done inside the justice league trilogy  so that's a whole lot of story there it'd be cool if we got to see it in film at some point but  the way zack snyder talks about it the studio  

has no plans to make those movies but he and jim  lee did talk about doing a comic book version of this to pay it off so even if it's not in the  actual movies i think we'll eventually get to see them do a version of this story everyone post  all your reactions in the comments below what do you think about zack snyder doing this as a comic  book story he also did say that he wanted to do a prequel story for ben affleck's batman in the dead  robin sort of his version of a death in the family but while you wait for everything everyone click  here for my full justice league snyder cut ending   and then credit scene video with all those easter  eggs and click here for that brand new suicide squad trailer video thank you so much for watching  everyone stay safe and i'll see you
