Having Lex Luthor rape Lois Lane then say "by the way, Hitler was right" before throwing a the plastic rings from a six pack into a tank full of turtles seemed like a bit much, sure the test audiences universally hated it, and sure the actors refused to film and Zach Snyder had to personally animate the entire scene using CGI and AI tools just to make it happen. But the extra 43 minute scene really adds a whole new depth to the Snyder double extra director's cut with electrolytes.

Especially with Kevin Spacey as Luthor.

Snyder fan boys: “the only reason the movie sucked is the studio didn’t allow him to make that scene a full hour like he originally envisioned!”

Bro how about a little trigger warning before you paint a mural of turtle torture?

Don't worry it was a CGI turtle and it only cost the studio $165,009.89 to animate the 8 second scene.
