Then there's the matter of how Justice League ends. Early rumors associated with the project suggested that Snyder's initial plan was to treat Justice League as a "Part One" movie and end the film on a cliffhanger. Although we still don't know exact details, the rumors have hinted that this would've featured an ending teasing the arrival of Darkseid on Earth. This rumor seems corroborated by the fact that Steppenwolf makes a quick reference to the behemoth space Hitler after he obtains two of the Mother Boxes, but the film never returns to the reference. If Snyder's original vision for the film had featured Darkseid, then this could've made considerably more sense. Now we will just have to wait and see if this petition gains the traction to show us what could've been.
