I felt the music that plays in the theatrical when The Flash realizes Superman can see him out of the corner of his eye was better. It was weirdly silent in the Snyder Cut and kinda sucked the comedy out of the little bit (it should be funny, Flash makes a funny face realizing).
Maybe I’m just used to the music cue selling the little sequence in the theatrical, and it’s not actually that good from an unbiased perspective, but I dunno. I definitely prefer it over the almost no music version that plays in the Snyder Cut.

I absolutely agree, and my friends and I expressed that same sentiment out loud while watching it for the first time. Incorporating that music or a similar cue for comedic effect while having it flow well with the rest of the scene (Zack’s is longer than Whedon’s) could be difficult, but I think worth trying. Maybe even just a single dramatic deep note, the one from the moment Superman sees Flash, would work tossed into the existing Snyder score.

Also, if anyone is good enough with audio to reduce the [ancient lamentations] that are over-used and horribly out of place in Diana’s fight scenes, any amount would be an improvement. If the terrorist battle is cut, maybe part of the Wonder Woman theme from that scene could be reincorporated elsewhere. Of course, this all comes down to how well the audio tracks are divided up in the eventual home release of this thing.
