Tell us what you really think, Leslie.
On Sunday, comedian Leslie Jones treated herself and fans to an 87-tweet of live commentary on the recently expanded extended cut of the 2017 “Justice League”.
The hilarious play-by is one of Jones’s signature bits. In the past, she rips it up Everything from “Game of Thrones” to the Olympics
This time, he gave Zack Snyder the Jones treatment for an extraordinarily long version of the malicious superhero film. The filmmaker was originally forced to take a leave from the set on a personal matter, and passed the torch to Joss Whedon to complete the movie’s theatrical release.
All four-hour feature was made available on HBO Max last week – which Jones took as a sharing opportunity to take on the film.
“Should I see it tomorrow, you guys, and live-tweet?” Hmm, “asked the 53-year-old former” SNL “actor on Saturday.
Thus, over the course of 240 minutes on Sunday evening, Jones shared a play-by-play of the superhero thriller, which depicts all the prevailing pride, including a bevy of bold names – deep breaths – Gal Gadot ( Wonder Woman), Ben Affleck (Batman), Amy Adams (Lois Lane), Henry Cavill (Superman), Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Ezra Miller (The Flash), Amber Heard (Mine), Jeremy Iron (Alfred), Ray Fisher (Cyborg), Diane Lane (Martha Kent) and JK Simmons (Commissioner Gordon).
She coined the hashtag “#LongSmamovie” to help fans track the live watch party.
During the film, Jones particularly praised Diana Prince on the league’s superwomen. Jones loved “Wonder Woman,” Jones declared as “Amazon Amazon” hitting a room full of crooks. “I’ve always wanted to throw a guy like a wall. That’s so dope.”
“Look at the swing on these chicks. He is a gangster! Jones later spoke of the formidable women of Themyscira, where Wonder Woman was born and trained as a feminist warrior. “That’s right, we fight as long as we fight,” Jones said. “Let’s go! You are a warrior!”
By 12:30 Monday morning, Jones has finally entered the heart of the superhero series, the psychological inspiration for all the mayhem: Daddy issues.
“Who’s this’? See, it always comes down to someone trying to please their daddy,” Jones said as the villain Steppenwulf explained his reason for global destruction: to please his master Darkseid.
“Go. Service. Therapy. Just go to therapy! Don’t come here and destroy the Earth.”
“Shish kebab, shish kebab!” She tells of Steppenwulf’s eventual demise, which includes (spoiler alert!) A trident through the abdomen by Aquaman, followed by a sucker punch of Superman, and finally a condemnation by Wonder Woman. “We’re gonna send the super cut just for you there. He’s your boy.”
“Why don’t you come through though? C’mon Thanos cousin, we’re waiting for you – – Kerr. Jones taunted the Darkseid screen.” But you’re not though. Man, you can’t – – t. “
