Zack Snyder’s Justice League: 27 WTF Moments

1. The Completely Deranged Knightmare Epilogue

The most significant material shot specifically for the Snyder Cut is the closing Knightmare epilogue, a completely insane vision of a potential post-apocalyptic future caused by Darkseid's invasion of Earth.

In the sequence, Batman, Cyborg, The Flash, Mera, Deathstroke, and The Joker are inexplicably united to try and stop Darkseid.

The scene, heavy on green screen and rarely featuring the actors in the same shot, was clearly cobbled together largely to give Affleck's Batman and Leto's Joker a scene together before the DCEU imploded.

It's messy and deeply weird - particularly when Joker asks Batman, "Who's gonna give you a reach-around [if you kill me]?" - yet at least sees Snyder swinging for the fences with the resources given to him by Warner Bros.
