Rebel Moon - Directors Cut| Official Red Band Trailer Reaction

[@HazLight4426]

So, the reason for the R-rated and PG-13 versions, is because Netflix wanted a family-friendly and more commercial version to make it more profitable for them, but at the same time letting Zack Snyder have full freedom for the R-rated version. So Zack gave Netflix their version of the film and now the director's cut is his version/vision.

The wayi understand it is as follows: These are the original movies... and from these he produced the PG13 cuts per Nextflix requests... if anyone is to blame it's Netflix for the poor reception of the PG13 versions.

As Zack tells it, when he went to Netflix with the unrated Rebel Moon they said they would do it but only if he created a PG-13 version so that more people could possibility watch (and so that Neflix could likely created their "Release the Snydercut" movement for more hype even though the two situations are worlds apart). Zack agreed since it meant he could make the full version without any issues. Problem is the Netflix cut is so watered down and bland that even with the knowledge that the "full version" is coming it is doubtful that the general audience will be that interested in returning to Rebel Moon if they didn't enjoy the first version. Also there was so much of a gap between Netflix's cut and Zack's cut that it just made the wait for the Director's Cut irritating rather than anticipatory. If they had waited maybe a week or even a month or two in between cuts that would be one thing, but to wait this long for the director's cut for a film many people did not like the first time around is a very....questionable business and marketing decision. I'm a fan of Zack Snyder and his work so I will be watching this extended version regardless but I can understand why many in the general audience will skip it. Netflix wanted to build as much hype for this as possible but they made end up shooting themselves in the foot in the same way WB did with Zack Snyder. When you are working with him, just let him release the film as intended. No fuss, no mess, no drama.

netflix didnt restrict snyder for first movies. Director cuts only here to cash in on the releasethesnydercut moment.

So Zack gave Netflix their version of the film and now the director's cut is his version/vision. Netflix is barely even promoting this director's cut which should let you know they're not really trying to do the whole SnyderCut thing. Do your research man

@@HazLight4426 I know the deal with it all. Nope theres no need for 2 movies. Its just trying to cash in on 2 movies (by Netflix and Sndyer). Snyder had full freedom to do the first 2 family movies but they still turned out trash. Saying he has to do a R rated movie beacuse that was his true vision is absolutely stupid,. So you saying the first ones were not his vision when obviously they was and only restricted by lack or gore and nudity. It all boils down to Netflix milking Rebel Moon. I myself think the director cuts wil turn out as stupid as the first movies.
