Well if your talling about the comics than your probably right, but if your talking about the snyder cut, then i'll just say the movie is different from the comic
I would love to see a fight between steppenwolf and thanos with his helicopter blade. Not with the infinity guanlet though, that feels unfair. Who do y'all think would win, and please don't be toxic.
@@giladsolomon7661 I did for Thanos too, but this Steppenwolf took the spot, cant really point why, just the overall development of how he arrives, he is mercyless and brutal, but inside he has the same aspirations and dreams that we all do
@@jonalex9002 My thinking is no one who is a servant of Darkseid dares to lie to him. Especially not someone like Steppenwolf since he has already incurred his wrath once.
So let me get this straight, Joss Whedon saw this Steppenwolf design and said No, lets go with smaller, thinner and overall less intimidating design, and all the other executives agreed
In fact, both designs come from Snyder... Warner asked him to modify the design of Steppenwolf because he considered it "too scary" (...YEP ! 🙄) That said, in defense of 2017's Steppenwolf: he's a bit closer to what he looks like in the comics... Which doesn't take away from the fact that it's a mess.
@@ad1170 that's true, but in the scene it's too specific to not be on purpose. Look at the hand and the marks that he creates. Snyder has always been very precise in the details.
@@marcobuiatti9802 that’s what we call reading too much into things mate. He was just reusing assets to save time and money. Like how he reuses Supermans landing from BVS “Nightmare” scene in the movie. Pretty standard in film making, especially those as heavy in CGI like this one. I sincerely doubt there is a deep message to it. Snyder isn’t the cinematic genius many are jerking him off to be, It’s a silly comic book movie.
Fav parts with detail that I love: 0:42 of the “👀” sequence. That armor detail and facial animation is flawless. So beautiful. 1:00 - the same way Darkseid grabbed the soil of earth during the War on it 🙌 love how that process was mirrored here. It’s really a completely different character that hits all the right feelings with the right motivations.
"Anti-life is found Dessad and we will stop at nothing to possess it. Ready the armada, we will use the old ways" Now this is how you make everyone fear Darkseid
@Slippy Frog he didn't get his shit kicked it was Steppenwolf, he didn't do anything cuz if he did (which he will in JS2&3) people gonna die including some of JS members
What? 😅 As much as I liked the movie how is that making people fear him, that’s pretty much basic villain talk. “ we will stop at nothing” and “ ready the armada/army”
@@catsangblue Him being Uxas at that point isn't in the movie though. There is no line in the movie to explain it. You could have Diana say that during her narration of the battle sequence and I think it would improve the scene, but instead there is nothing in the movie to support that.
I mean, Thanos was literally created in Darkseid image. His very creator admitted that is editor told him word for word: "Beef him up! If you're going to steal one of the New Gods, at least rip off Darkseid, the really good one!" Soooo yeah. Darkseid is Thanos daddy
1:36 That facial expression got me thinking that he thought something was missing once he smashed his axe into the ground. Even the way he roars as well. 1:38
@@nateborie6329 wouldn't say that but yeah it's very close. I'd say desaad's only shot in the first trailer is PEAK CGI. It wasn't in the movie which makes me sad but that one shot just makes you question your own existence. It just looks too real
Stepenwolf did what Darksied couldn’t. The greatest villain in Comic Book Movie History in my opinion Period. Imagine what Darksied will do in JL2 and JL3
Maybe not worthy or strong enough. Also, he can’t kill Darkseid. His true form is too much to look at. What you see is his avatar. He has many of them.
Darkseid is family. Steppenwolf once wanted to depose him already, but he changed his mind and slaughtered the ones who tried to take his throne. He's a very loyal boy. He doesn't want to rule at this point. He just wants to be home.
Genuine question to people who read the comics because I haven't: is there more to the story told by this movie? I liked it very much and hope that there's a sequel or something where the Justice League fights Darkseid and the others? Thanks in advance
Well this movie, while mainly inspired by the comics, is also other DC animated shows and movies. However, it is an original story so there's no source material to show us how it would end. But a lot of the similar motifs/concepts would have been in the sequels. Darkseid coming to Earth and facing the justice league (The New 52) Darkseid beating the league and destroying the planet (Apokolips War) Darkseid turning Superman on his side to conquer the world (Superman the Animated Series) Superman taking control and ruling the Earth under a regime and Batman leading the resistance (Injustice Gods Among Us) Flash going back in time to prevent the destruction of the world (Flashpoint Paradox) And many more.
It's the symbol of the anti life equation. Darkseid found this on Earth first but because he lost the war and wasn't able to find the planet again (cause it's among trillions in a multiverse), it became a tale. Then Steppenwolf found it because the mother box showed it to him. It's basically the whole equation carved on the surface that can be extracted using mother boxes or something else that they would have used in sequels
@@Smug_Adam69 maybe the old gods did? Because they were like protectors of earth or something? I'm pretty sure they were gonna explore this stuff more in thr sequels. After all, these movies were gonna be long as fuk
@@raam726 Exactly, Darkseid carved it in the earth when he landed and left it there when he was defeated. I don't think the Gods knew what it was and it just stayed there over time.
For people who are wondering how Darkseid forgot Anti-Life was on Earth, he didn't. He lost the signal when he was carried back to Apokolips. The Mother Boxes were no longer responding and Darkseid had no way of knowing which planet, or possibly even which universe. No one else had survived the war, aside from a few Parademons and they have no minds, so they couldn't tell him. The equation was lost. Thus, Darkseid began his multiversal conquest, taking world after world, all the while making Steppenwolf do the same thing as penance for his betrayal. And remember, Darkseid was not even aware that Steppenwolf was ON Earth, until after Desaad contacted him directly. *That's when it all came back.*
@@SushanthSD have one solid villain. Steppon wolf. Maybe a lil darkseid cameo at the end. Anyway Y are making excuses for darkseid forgetting earth? That's bad writing.
I really love the extreme closeups on his face. I don't know why but I like getting to see their faces. Maybe because Steppenwolf's facial expressions were much better. Usually we don't see his eyes fully or they're glowing.
I actually sympathize with this version of Steppenwolf. All he wanted was to return home and seeked redemption throughout the film. I actually felt SAD when he died by WW's hand but at the same time also felt good that the JL won this battle!
my biggest issue with this scene is probably that they just reused the scene from when Darkseid arrived on earth with just changing the sprite from DS to Steppen, and adding an overlay to the etchings in the ground to show the symbol
Isn’t that the purpose of this scene, from what I could tell at least, the idea of the scene is the boxes showing Stephan wolf anti life equation paralleling the earlier scene with dark side as it was established that Stephan wolf betrayed him and tried to over throw him, the boxes are meant to corrupt the mind showing a better reality for you, like what they tried to do with cyborg at the end. I thought that it made sense in terms of the movie but that’s just me.
Seems kind of weird that Darkseid knew of this when he first invaded Earth, but somehow forgot? And none of his hundreds of thousands of soldiers thought to inform him of the giant eldritch runes carved into the planet's surface??
And even if he didn’t know about the anti-life equation, wouldn’t going back to get the mother boxes be a pretty big priority? Like he lost them there. Straight up brought his cooler to the Earth War Cookout and left it there and never thought to come back. 🤔
@@SeanTanktop He didn’t actually know what planet he was invading, it’s not like one can choose where the Boom Tubes created by the Boxes send them, the three Mothers have their own will, but they are mainly programmed to aid Darkseid in his endless conquest, that’s why they sent him to Earth, because they had found the equation there, and so would he, once he had used the unity to scorch the planet. The other thing is that Darkseid and the other New Gods can’t really travel to Earth without a Boom Tube because they live in a separate dimension from ours, the only reason Steppenwolf was able to arrive in Temischira was because the Mother Boxes had awakened upon SuperMan’s death and summoned him back. For some reason, they seemed extremely dedicated to help Steppenwolf finding his redemption for Darkseid, whether it was a legitimate wish to aid him or a predicted plot that would eventually lead to his death we can’t be sure.
@@SeanTanktop Honestly that I can understand, because he got fked up mighty good by the Old Gods. Going back in that weakened state to fight an already prepared enemy is just a faster form of euthanasia.
Yeah I think Zack said it’s because he got fucked up and when he went back home he was in a struggle for power and by the time that he won everyone he was with on earth had been killed, I’d say this would have been explored in a sequel to JL
This is going to sound weird, but this steppenwolf has really pretty eyes. Well, I find them pretty. They are very expressive. They can show regret, or defference like the ones of a puppy, but also can be menacing and filled with rage and hatred when the ocassion rises 😅🥰🤭😋

my biggest issue with this scene is probably that they just reused the scene from when Darkseid arrived on earth with just changing the sprite from DS to Steppen, and adding an overlay to the etchings in the ground to show the symbol
It seemed like the vision from the mother box was showing him when darkseid found it earlier, but swapping him in to show him. To me at least 🤷🏻♂️
Isn’t that the purpose of this scene, from what I could tell at least, the idea of the scene is the boxes showing Stephan wolf anti life equation paralleling the earlier scene with dark side as it was established that Stephan wolf betrayed him and tried to over throw him, the boxes are meant to corrupt the mind showing a better reality for you, like what they tried to do with cyborg at the end. I thought that it made sense in terms of the movie but that’s just me.
@@Reece-Playz "Stephan" Wolf lmao
Now that's just toxic nitpicking lmaoo
@@gentle_singularity stfu
Is it just mere coincidence that the antilife equation has an omega symbol just like Darkseid has?
It's more that Darkseid is just so obsessed with getting the Anti life equation he got a tattoo of it lol
Steppenwolf had such sad eyes I felt so bad for him
I have a question is this video got a copy claim warning or not?
Seems kind of weird that Darkseid knew of this when he first invaded Earth, but somehow forgot? And none of his hundreds of thousands of soldiers thought to inform him of the giant eldritch runes carved into the planet's surface??
And even if he didn’t know about the anti-life equation, wouldn’t going back to get the mother boxes be a pretty big priority? Like he lost them there. Straight up brought his cooler to the Earth War Cookout and left it there and never thought to come back. 🤔

He didn’t actually know what planet he was invading, it’s not like one can choose where the Boom Tubes created by the Boxes send them, the three Mothers have their own will, but they are mainly programmed to aid Darkseid in his endless conquest, that’s why they sent him to Earth, because they had found the equation there, and so would he, once he had used the unity to scorch the planet. The other thing is that Darkseid and the other New Gods can’t really travel to Earth without a Boom Tube because they live in a separate dimension from ours, the only reason Steppenwolf was able to arrive in Temischira was because the Mother Boxes had awakened upon SuperMan’s death and summoned him back. For some reason, they seemed extremely dedicated to help Steppenwolf finding his redemption for Darkseid, whether it was a legitimate wish to aid him or a predicted plot that would eventually lead to his death we can’t be sure.
@@SeanTanktop Honestly that I can understand, because he got fked up mighty good by the Old Gods. Going back in that weakened state to fight an already prepared enemy is just a faster form of euthanasia.
Yeah I think Zack said it’s because he got fucked up and when he went back home he was in a struggle for power and by the time that he won everyone he was with on earth had been killed, I’d say this would have been explored in a sequel to JL
@@michaelohanlon5545 If that's the case that's reasonable enough I guess
Is there a wide-screen version available for the movie?
To be honest his face is adorable 😂
The part where steppenwolf grabs his axe and slams it on the ground looked sick🔥
La CGI est incroyable comme le film
Hats off to the fine details in building up the scenario
It's quite amazing how Joss Whedon's Steppenwolf is disgusting and bad however Snyder's Steppenwolf is actually both Terrifying and Cute
This is going to sound weird, but this steppenwolf has really pretty eyes. Well, I find them pretty. They are very expressive. They can show regret, or defference like the ones of a puppy, but also can be menacing and filled with rage and hatred when the ocassion rises 😅🥰🤭😋
The cgi is fucking perfect here
Only real Og's know that steppenwolf have 6 fingers
He has 7.
This villain is badass ! I like. #RestoreTheSnyderverse #JusticeLeague2 #ManOfSteel2
0:49 ... Damn that puppy eyes ... Awesome cgi
0:48 those eyes can defeat superman and entire league.
Why did you crop the clip ? 4/3 is better
Steppenwolf gone mad coz just like most people, he didnt understand the equation.
Student (Steppenwolf) :- finds Antilife eqution e=mc^2
Teacher (Einstein) :- wow😮 you have completed your homework correctly
1:42 SI unit of resistance Ohm ( Ω )
You must be a typical Indian boy in school/college.
@@TheManOfTomorrow 10th grade student.
Why does everyone think the omega symbol is Ohm?
🕉 this is an Ohm
(Ω) this is an Omega
@@redcomet6833 You're incorrect. The symbol you refer to is "Om" which is a symbol in Hinduism etc. @LoL is correct in his statement. The two are different.
This symbol Cleary means someone just made a cameo in dc😁😁
But it means war
