Zack Snyder Attending DC FanDome
By George Robbins
With most live events through the end of the year canceled, there has been a somber tone since there is now less for people to do. Nowadays there is little for people to do in the way of activities and most activities people were looking forward to were ones where people gathered together. This is not a good option in the broad spectrum of things that are currently going on and the coronavirus is still very much a threat. There has been a spike in the number of new cases since businesses reopened their doors to the public and it makes it too dangerous to host public events. This is why events like Star Wars Celebration were canceled and there are now going to be at-home versions of conventions such as San Diego Comic-Con.
It is clear with the at-home virtual conventions that it is still entirely possible for communities to come together and celebrate what they love, but just not face-to-face. One of the things many people don’t realize that they miss while being in isolation for so long is the company of other people, especially those who share your interests. Technology can cause a lot of harm, but also has plenty of good uses as well. This is evident in its ability to keep people connected during times like these and make sure that we can keep in touch with family, friends, and communities. One big event that is coming up that helps connect a fan base is the upcoming DC FanDome event being held online.
For those who are unaware of just what DC FanDome is, it is an online convention which will allow the DC fan base to get the latest news on upcoming projects and allow them to get involved with the community. The event itself doesn’t require any kind of payment to get involved with it and it is the first ever time this event will be done whether offline or online. This is an opportunity for them to show people whether this concept could work and eventually establish it and solidify it as another convention people can look forward to. They are already willing to allow people the chance during these hard times to have a little fun and maybe get excited about something.
To help get people excited, they have already announced that Dwayne Johnson would be attending the convention and now they have said Zack Snyder will be in attendance. Recently Snyder was announced to be working on his own director’s cut of the ‘Justice League’ movie, which is something that a lot of fans have been asking for since the movie’s release in 2017. The film will release on HBO Max some time next year, but other than that there are no really new details in regards to the film or its intended release date. With his taking part during the event, it might be a good opportunity to find out some information in regards to the new cut of the film. I guess it is something fans will have to find out on August 22 during the 24 hour window of the convention.
