Cade threw in Blade Runner, Forrest Gump, The Last of the Mohicans, and The Prestige.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul><li style="font-weight:400;">I never got around to seeing Justice League for a myriad of reasons, but now that the Snyder Cut is out, I’m at least interested in watching it. My question is: Should I watch the theatrical cut first, or should I just dive right in to the Snyder Cut? Does the extended version work completely on its own? Or to truly understand the zeitgeist around it do I need to watch the theatrical cut first? Thank yo
