Zack Snyder's Star War is Bantha Poodoo | Rebel Moon Review

[@MartinRMcGowan]

Your unwilling childhood double-showing of Watchmen and Monsters vs Aliens explains a lot actually.

[@sophisticautistic5453]

I still cannot believe that Netflix and Snyder would make a cut of the movie and then basically say that the Synder Cut of the movie is coming out in less than a year. Why not just release the original version first?

[@akiraeatsguitarpicks491]

Money money money

[@marvelousball]

Literal scam

[@wiinis-official]

Money, but also a depressing lack of respect for the very movie they are making. It’s one of those movies that would do great on TikTok, because a lot of brainlets like to watch short clips randomly shoved alongside unfitting music.

[@catholiccontriversy]

Because that worked so well the last time. I refuse to believe that the snyder cut we got was "the director's original untouched vision," I'm quite confident if Zack didn't step down halfway through production "the real original vision" (that WB would have allowed him to release) would have been only somewhat better than the movie we ultimately got in 2017. There's no way Zack didn't say "on 2nd viewing with lots of time to reflect, that actually doesn't work, I'm going to fix it" or "I originally cut this because it made the run time too long, but since people can pause the movie I'm putting it back" when he was making "Zack Snyder's Justice League" for HBO.

[@DIN_NER]

300 and Watchmen are the only good movies Zack Snyder has ever made and unfortunately, that type of directing doesn't work anymore.

[@thusano2]

Snyders whole ethos is summed up in sucker punch,(a movie he also wrote,) he has this desire for the epic and sensational, but the storytelling to get to those moments always flails. He does better with others' IP, maybe he needs to collaborate with a writer who can help him make his ideas more tangible, someone who can help him write a story that earns the gravitas that slo-mo implies lol.

[@thusano2]

The more I think about this, I realize, that Snyder really wants to make a Smashing Pumpkins or MCR music video. He wants drama and flair very quickly and music videos are shorthand for exactly that.

As with most of his adaptations, Snyder seems to misunderstand the central ideas behind the material he adapts. This movie is an amalgamation of sci-fi concepts as seen in other sci-fi movies and tv shows without any of the context that made them impactful in their original appearances. Strung together like this, it just creates a story made up of a series of cool events and really flashy looking scenes.
