Mexico City. While the fandom is largely devoted to the Justice League Snyder Cut, it’s not for nothing a triumph of the DC followers who moved heaven and earth until Zack Snyder’s version saw the light, there are also aspects of the film that are criticized.
It’s a sequence set in the opening portion of the movie, when Bruce Wayne tries to recruit Arthur Curry. To find the Atlantean, Ben Affleck’s character travels through icy mountains on foot and on horseback to meet Aquaman in a small, icy seaside town, Westfjords.
In the village tavern, Jason Momoa’s character rejects Bruce Wayne’s proposal to join his band of meta-human warriors and form an alliance facing a major and imminent threat that could end Earth.
And when the enraged Aquaman leaves the tavern to enter the icy waters of the sea, the town’s villagers begin to sing a chant known as ‘Vísur Vatnsenda-Rósu’, an Icelandic poem written over time. has also become a traditional Scandinavian lullaby and a folk song by Jón Ásgeirsson. A song performed by the glittering star Björk.
In any case, many fans have found the recording of this musical passage quite forced and they mainly complain that the song lasts a very long time. Also, the fact that one of the singing women smells the sweater Arthur Curry left on the bank makes the end of the strange scene somewhat uncomfortable.
The sequence may have suited a shorter version of the song better … but on the Snyder Cut, with nearly four hours of footage, time was about the director’s most free time.
