Well, I guess you won't be watching it.The difference is that I want to see it presented like a feature film, not hacked up into 6 "episodes" to stretch things out. It was shot and paced as a film, it should be viewed as a film.

Frankly, I'm not sure I'll be watching it. I don't really have an issue with the episodic concept, but, it's the level of my interest that might be prevent me from watching it.Oh, I'll still watch it, and the way HBO will air it still hasn't been decided. Just voicing my opinion.
I'm fine with the current version of the movie which was my point as to my lack of interest in this version of the movie.I am one of the few people in the world I guess, who think the movie is fine as it is! I’d probably buy the Blu rays out of curiosity. HBO is a premium service in Canada included with pay TV networks. I don’t know anyone who has it. It also is not as extensive as the US version.
This was really my only issue with the movie. Very uninteresting villain. It’s the only factor I think The Avengers had over this. Though I otherwise prefer JL to Avengers in all other respects.One issue that I do have is that for a big event movie like this one they go with a bad guy that barely anyone knows or heard of. Steppenwolf?

You're the only person I've seen give a simple or coherent answer of it did or didn't. Me and a friend have both read multiple articles and couldn't figure out if a cable subscription meant that you have HBO Max or not. No doubt there's been quality articles on the topic but HBO (and the people writing the stories I've read) have failed miserably in dispensing what should have been very simple info.If you have HBO the premium cable channel, you get HBO Max as part of that subscription.
I doubt I will watch the new cut. I think Synder is a talented film maker, and I've enjoyed some of his work, but his hyper-realistic, grim and gritty DC films suck all the joy and fun out of them for me. I never thought I'd say a Batman or Superman film wasn't fun, but they're not. At least, not for me. Give me Christopher Reeve's Superman or Michael Keaton's Batman (or Adam West's!).
You know where Synder lost me? It was in Watchmen, a film that I generally liked. There's a scene where Rorschach is in jail and some prisoners have their hands through the jail bars, and Rorschach has a chain saw. The audience knows he'll use it on their hands. We hear the grisly sounds. That should be enough, but it's not for Synder, who shows us every absurdly gory detail, not because it's necessary, but because he can. He lost me right there. That's gratuitous, and it's poor film making too.

Not that many people not familiar with DC's comics would necessarily know who Darkseid was
Easy enough to introduce Darkseid by showing him ruthlessly, and without mercy, crushing victims unrelated to Earth or to the Justice League. Throw in a little talk about how Darkseid doesn't mind spilling rivers of innocent blood, and so forth …
