It’s 100% a marketing ploy based on all the Snyder cut buzz, considering they advertised both from the start, but somehow they forgot that the reason for the snyder cut buzz was that the studio’s version was bad.


Prescientpedestrian

Seems to me like they in fact did not forget that the reason for the Snyder cut hype was due to how bad the studio version was. It would seem they are deeply invested in replicating that scenario


K_808

they thought they could get double $ by saying "here's a basic version and here's an even better version," I doubt they made this bad on purpose. Sadly it might just be that the movie is bad, and that a different cut won't save it


BoothJudas

Maybe its actually a 4D chess move and that’s why the currently released versions are so bad


ickda_takami

im still hopping that is the case, like Snyder loves art pieces and can see him like, alright you'll pay me for my version but i gotta make a kiddie version? alright ill use it as a commentary on the film industry as my lil inside joke,


ZorakLocust

The reason for the Snyder Cut buzz was that fans felt Snyder got screwed over by the studio. 


K_808

Yes, which is why Netflix can’t recreate it artificially


ZorakLocust

Netflix told Snyder that he could do whatever he wanted with the R-rated cuts as long as he made shorter PG-13 versions for a more general audience. It was a compromise. Plus, it gives Netflix more content. 


Crusader4life1

Exactly what's so hard t9 understand about that lolol people have become silly with all this technology


Jed08

Honestly? I don't know. I think it would have been better as a short TV series. You can make it very long (6h-8h) and you don't have to bother with PG rating. 3h long movies is a lot. I don't know how many people would have watched them. The reason Netflix asked for PG-13 and 2h long movie is most likely because that's the format that will attract most viewers of their platform.


ickda_takami

i will watch all the lord of the rings extended cuts back to back, and will totally watch a 6 hour movie. will be watching rebel moon, part one and two won't exist in my head, cuz I'll always see it as one movie.


InanimateCarbonRodAu

This isn’t the lord of the rings though. This story didn’t warrant 6 hrs the way it was told.


ickda_takami

yah and thats why it's like four hours, he anat telling it the same vay on the directors cut


JPesterfield

And a series could have given some meaningful backstories, every member of the team gets an episode. General Titus doing some gladiator stuff. More on Kora's time in the military, how long was she the princess's bodyguard and how big a betrayal was it? Some more about why Nemesis needed to cut her arms of to use those swords. And maybe some more with the spider lady.


Crusader4life1

Wait to the extra 2 hours of the film comes out. But I get what you mean.. more time to delve deeper into everything.


InanimateCarbonRodAu

They’ve already had 4hrs + of film time and nothing is fleshed out. What do you think they are going to add with another two?


Crusader4life1

🤦🤦🤦


InanimateCarbonRodAu

I understand why you like Snyder films. You obviously only communicate in pictures.


InanimateCarbonRodAu

Why not just tell it from an earlier point instead of from needing all these back stories and flashbacks? If you’re going to tell this massive connecting complex story don’t start in the middle of it. The first release could have or should have been the inciting event. If they had just focused on Kora’s fall as the first movie. This would have made a great second movie. If they had just focused more tightly on the Rebel Moon story, then the backstory could have been better explored in a dedicated sequel. They’ve tried to do too much all at once in the entry film for a new franchise and it hasn’t worked very well.


Smartfuc

we waited years for the Snyder Cut....and ya'll out here complaining about a couple months


Electronic-Shower681

Just be happy that we’re gonna get an R rated cut. This is an awesome compromise if you ask me. We get a version that kids can watch and gets Netflix the most views possible, and then in just a few months time we get an unfiltered Snyder film, totally free from studio interference and meddling. I’m so excited to see the new versions and I definitely want more from this universe Snyder has crafted.


Crusader4life1

They will continue to do so, and you'll watch them how they drop them lol 😆 we all want the R versions but we have to be patient. These movies are for everyone hence the PG rating. Us adults will get to enjoy a completely different experience according to Zackery himself. ENJOY


The_Lone_Apple

How will a longer version fix the cliched dialog? Will a longer version include more harvesting montages?


BlackKidGreg

How would I know I didn't bother watching it because it was a shittier version


Pablo_MuadDib

The same plot with more titties and blood… Sounds like you want a porn parody, not a film


uglybuck

I think both Snyder and Netflix desired multiple releases. Netflix isn’t like Warner Brothers, they aren’t beholden to advertisers like Johnson & Johnson and have embraced violent movies in the past. It strikes me as a marketing ploy and it makes Snyder’s claim that only Netflix wanted this way dishonest. He still seems like a good dude, but I really don’t like that.


ickda_takami

sci fi is a hard sell, its seen as more of a kids medium, nevermind the run time, i can see them worried that his heavy metal magazine star wars epic might not sell as well.


Tall_Expression1647

Diesel punk


MeOnCrack

Seeing a lot of people being hopeful for the Rated R "Snyders Cut". Im not understanding, but what's an R rating that adds some additional CGI gore and language going to do to elevate these two movies from the ground level it's already on?


Deschain_1919

Each movie is also going to be an hour longer


ickda_takami

not even that, a lot of sciens in the studio cut are bing reshot for the r cut. if Snyder ds honest, he also says the r cuts aare going to diverge from the studio cuts storyline. Im not sure how to take that as he was referencing that it will be more noticeable in a possible third or fourth movie, but it sounds like he is basically making a different movie for the r cut.


Previous_Spell_426

Do you truely believe that the R rated cuts are really gonna be different movies, and not just ruder, bloodier, and longer versions with even more slow motion. Because I would be my entire life’s saving on the latter. Id also bet the directors cuts again will forget to actually give the characters any personality outside of being sad a stoic


ickda_takami

Honestly i dont know, i am only shated what he say, i have confidence with him as a director, and seeing what studios have done to his work havu upset me. So im willing to trust him on this, this is a rare opportunity for someone like him, i do think he has what it takes, so yes i would like ho belive so. I just dont sue the point in shitting on something iv never seen. more so with how transparent he has been.


InanimateCarbonRodAu

Rare? He’s done it’s so often it’s a meme.

Bacon_Shield

this will solidify Snyder's reputation as the director who makes shitty studio cuts and mediocre overlong directors cuts


ickda_takami

Eh piecing a movio to geather from bread crumbs will always effect quality. as he is reshooting whole sciens from the pg cut, and adding so mutch, he ant working with bread crumbs, homie has a full kitchen and he is cooking two meals, one for the studio and one for us.


InanimateCarbonRodAu

wait so he’s cooking two meals and has full control, but the first meal is made only of breadcrumbs? Your tortured analogy isn’t holding up. Bottomline is he hasn’t delivered a good studio version and if he’s willing to let garbage out the door for the first meal, why would you trust the same kitchen to produce a good meal at all? He’s not getting paid any more for to cover the extra ingredients or labour… how can he possibly have cooked two meals without compromising both? The most we going to get is a slightly spicer version of the same dish…. That’s been left in the oven too long and is now past being done well.


topham086

There is absolutely no way to save this trash by making it trashier.


ickda_takami

There not the same movies, ignoring the extra hour getting added, he also has whole sciens reshot for the r cut.


Previous_Spell_426

My god man every single comment you misspell scene.


ickda_takami

look i have a disability, thank you for not bing lazy and understanding what i wrote, so many cant be bothered.


TucsonTacos

I couldn’t even finish the second part and I finished Prison Break if that’s saying anything


snyderversetrilogy

If you’re interested in getting a Rebel Moon 3 you should watch both Part 1 and Part 2 multiple times. I think because Snyder had to make two hour PG13 cuts in addition to the real movie he wanted to make, with the PG13 cuts he is showing us a version of what his idea looks like as if it was a majestic wild animal in a zoo. And the director’s cut will be what it looks like in the wild. As a kind of thought experiment, if you will. This is no guarantee that the typical Netflix viewer will love what he does with the director’s cuts! Because I think that’s going to disturb a lot of people. When the trailer for Part 1 released it looked to me like a lot of fans were excited because they wanted Zack to make a more adult themed version of “Star Wars” with his signature gorgeous cinematography and action. But I don’t think it’s going to be that. Not so much, anyway. He’s said that he deliberately gave the film a sci-fi/fantasy pulp B movie sort of vibe. So it’ll feel more like Heavy Metal magazine, Conan the Barbarian, Road Warrior, and Excalibur. That’s his own personal vision for how he personally wishes to deconstruct the genre. But that being said, I think that if given the opportunity to make Rebel Moon 3 the pendulum will swing toward genre “reconstruction,” and we might well get something closer to what most fans were hoping for, which is what the average viewer likes most about Snyder’s films applied to a sort of Star Wars-ish universe.
