They're going to probably make bank on having a spare Marvel scale release on their streaming platform, even without a rabid fanbase, and that's a steal for $70 million.

yeah, I believe I'm in the same boat. Four hours + a fifteen minute intermission (assumed, no evidence) is also a long time in the theatre... especially for this film.

I found this extensive comment on r/movies particularly informative regarding how much new footage this cut of the movie will contain.

I'm mostly tired of darkness. Give me a cheerful superhero movie any day.
You may like The Shazam movie. Deadpool also comes to mind.
