Why The Rebel Moon Director’s Cut Titles Are Different

It ties into Snyder’s promise that they’re completely different movies

When Netflix announce that it would be releasing both PG-13 and R - order versions of Snyder’sRebel Moonfilms , it was loose to dismiss it as a merchandising stunt . Snyder has become obsess with film director ’s cut since theJustice Leaguedebacle and Netflix ’s top priority is to get as many “ minute watched ” as possible . But the release of two variant ofRebel Moonwas actually the solvent of a compromise between the streaming monster and the filmmaker . Snyder wanted radius - ratedRebel Moonmoviesand Netflix wanted PG-13 - ratedRebel Moonmovies , so they concur to make both .

Ever since the declaration of these R - rate manager ’s cuts , Snyder has repeatedly insisted that they ’re completely dissimilar film than the PG-13 version . They ’re not just the original versions with more blood in the legal action scenes and fewer cut in the sexual practice vista ; they ’re a wholly dissimilar experience of theRebel Moonsaga . Giving the R - rated versions their own claim ties into Snyder ’s hope that they ’re not just the same motion picture ; they ’re their own matter .
