I had that same question. It makes zero sense to mention that a different crew tried the heist because the implication is that Tanaka learned nothing from the previous botched job(s?) and is willing to send out another extremely close corporate stooge like Dillahunt’s character to his death again because he has no intel on how to get out safely with the blood/head/sample. The alternative fan theory is that it’s a time loop situation so this current crew was also the previous crew. This also doesn’t make sense, though, because unless this is the first reset (second attempt) Tanaka still sent them in without any reliable intel to at least manipulate the situation to get Dillahunt out! Unless I’m way off?

We need to stop putting more thought into this mess than the writers did.

A Lost Vegas sneak peek. From a Twitch fan stream with his bro Ohio Dave he is doing right now. An older shot of Omari Hardwick:

You guys have no idea how much Snyder is into the fanbase he ended up with once he went all-in on Vero. He went to cons and so on before but I don´t think an A-level director ever did this with total normies.

Snyder shitting on WB on an unscheduled Twitch stream with 180 views will never not be funny. Snyder allowing Sucker Punch to not be R is "what allowed all the other dominos to fall". AotD, then Watchmen, then TSC, then UC BvS, and then MoS are the films Snyder had the most amount of freedom with. Note how 300 and SP don´t even make the top 5. Huh. Zeus is carrying the head of a cop on his stick and that is a ballistic SWAT mask. Tanaka is having the characters go through a morality play. So I was right. He also talked about residual memories and that some on the team are special. He explained how DC SP can come out and teased his Non-Star Wars film. Good stuff. Army was 90% done in November 2019. It's how he could focus on TSC.

Vanderohe ended up in the nursing home in the original ending and he shot the epilogue as a last-second decision with only 4 other people as his crew. None of the other actors knew. He also said that Vanderohe will start the opening sequence of the next film and the film before this one (Lost Vegas?) would end with Zeus escaping so what we see at the start of this film is a Previously On. We basically turned into a random episode or issue of a larger plot.
Christian Slater is the villain of Lost Vegas and will rant for most of his screen time. "You are gonna wish you would have googled up Uncle Sam´s cock" will be a line. LV will be 2 hours long (6 eps) and it will explain more of the time loop.
Army is a film trilogy to Zack. Not counting spin-offs and zombies won´t be the focus of the next film. It will transcend genres.

Edit: The amount of info he gave on Dave´s stream is bonkers. Snyder with the press and Snyder with his streaming buddies are different people. The archive of his stream. A mini Q&A on this universe and all the other stuff: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1039452409
The book Snyder is talking about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illusions_(Bach_novel)

He should just do live commentary and show the movie, so he can explain what he thinks is on the screen. You know instead of it being on the screen.

I hated this trash and I LIKE zombie movies. I think I liked it better when it was called Dawn of the Dead or Zombieland. All the tropes were there, secret reason for the mission, people not who they seem, misogynistic army member, estranged father/daughter relationship etc etc. I actually had to fast forward through some of it at times. The zombie makeup? What the **** was that?!??! Looks like it was done by Face Off rejects. At least there won't be that many more zombie movies since this is the pinnacle of zombie movies according to everyone.

What's the next Zombie movie? WWZ2?

I doubt that movie will ever see the light of day.

Why not drones? This is a question I have asked multiple times and Snyder trolls have only responded with - IT IS A MOVIE. As if logic and common sense are inconveniences for Snyder and should not be brought up.

WW3 if it were to happen will be all drones. Military drones can be very accurate. You can bet that if a zombie outbreak ever happened, it would be entirely contained and hunted with drones.

Scheduling prevented Ray Fisher from getting a major role in Army 1. Hope to see him in Army 2. The US Defense Secretary in Lost Vegas will be played by Harry Lennix. Joe Manganiello will play its villain or something. Ray Porter is lined up for a gig. I like where this is going.

What on earth was Ray Fisher busy with???
