Much of what is "our own thing" in reality , is a combination of many "other people's things" rolled into one. There aren't really any "original" or "new" ideas. Rebel Moon , Snyder revealed in an interview, was kinda a star wars fanfiction. Those are his words. He was never hiding it. But many people , the NPC types and or Normies, are clueless about what the films foundation was based on and that thing was the Heavy Metal adult comic series. This is Snyder having fun. He wasn't trying to impress movie snobs, he was trying to impress himself and other crazy weird film lovers that love dark fantasy , blood , gore and sex, oh and adventure! 😂 People really r clueless about this film. Also, we have mentally insane folk that just down his films cuz they think Snyder is secretly a white supreamist evil Trumper or something. These people r foam at the mouth nuts 😂
IMO the long versions are EPIC! I really loved these versions (yes even the crop scenes that are magnificent with the image music and bonding between this closed-off community and the people who came to hep them). I loved the lore so much that I need to buy the books about it. The Kalis (the motors of the Destroyer) are amazing and I need to know more. Well, to me Zack is still a pure genius ;)
I remember watching the first cut with subtitles and it mentioned "oracle blades sizzling". Oracle blades? It seems like there's a story there but we didn't get it. He has great ideas but he needs help executing.
@@nimz8521 Yeah the bad guys have blue ones while Nemesis had red ones. What was going on there? In the original Star Wars they clearly explain the importance and purpose of the lightsaber but in Rebel Moon they are just…there.
I liked this movie. Its a mature love letter to classic star wars. I dont understand all the weird levels of hate for Synder, but at the same time i was never a fan of his movies. If i movie is enjoyable , its enjoyable. This was well acted, well written and directed. I really havent liked any of the crap coming out of hollywood these past years , and im happy i enjoyed. I took a massive break from new movies for years , and recently returned to the theater finally to see Miyazaki's The Boy And The Heron , and the outstanding Godzilla GroundZero. This movie gave me a great scifi/fantasy experience. If u didnt like it, thats cool. I honestly cant wait to watch part twos directors cut
@@majicweather4890 That’s great. Glad u enjoyed. Yeah some of the Hollywood drek has been really bad but the likes of Dune anything Christopher Nolan is always worth a watch. I also don’t get the hate for Snyder,the guy takes criticism on the chin and loves his fans.His trilogy of DC movies ( in their complete versions) are awesome
" Its a mature love letter to classic star wars. " being gory, having sex, and people cursing doesnt make it mature. the original gundam, back in the late 70's is an ocean of maturity compared to even this version of rebel moon. hell, just go on youtube and look up "the greatest headshot in all entertainment media" and you will understand how snyder fails at having depth. there's no slowdown, no need for swearing. and the brutality of the scene is enough to sell how desperate the situation is. that scene alone has more maturity than this entire movie combined.
@@Deancaloupis I agree that they are better than the SW sequel trilogy. Kora is not a Mary Sue like Rey, they establish that she has been trained from an early age to fight. I do prefer Rogue One to Rebel Moon. That’s the only decent SW movie Disney has made
@@passionatetechnology8306 I liked Solo. It was harmless fun and Ahlden Ehrenreich did a good job. It unfortunately came very soon after Last Jedi which was very divisive and only two years after seeing the character killed off in such an awful way in The Force Awakens
@@WesPerry Interesting. I gave up on STD by season 3 as it seemed to get worse as it went on so havnt seen that episode. I havnt seen the Lost In Space reboot
@@WesPerry Oh, I forgot about that. I just remember the Spore drive and that the chief engineer took over piloting that thing ( I try to drive all memory of STD out of my head 😉)
@@brendangkelleher2669 Yeah, I can’t argue with that last part. Through some act of self-loathing I did manage to finish the entire series for some strange reason 😂😩
isnt that just a twist on the navigators from dune as well? they arent the powersource, sure, and they are mutated humans, but they are basically the closest thing to sentient aliens in the story, and they are vital for space travel and one of if not THE reason for the need for spice.
It did feel like the big head in the ship needed explaining on the original version. It does sound like a Dune ripoff, if I remember right the ships in Dune need the spice and an alien creator navigating/hyperspacing them to allow faster than light travel. But I guess this is copying starwars which in turn copied Dune, so there is always an element of taking old ideas.
in the hands of a good director? sure. maybe someone with vision that goes beyond "lets add slow down to everything, this way the movie will seem very deep!"
A lot of people already decide in their hearts to hate it first and watch it. Watch it not for fun but to point out any faults. They watch it from a pure sceptical perspective. And vice versa. I am not a fanatic or a critic of Snyder but I thoroughly enjoyed the Director's Cut. More than Guardian of the Galaxy trilogy and Dune.
@@shortrandoms7010I think that most people can agree that it was a mess... I went to watch it hoping that we would get a great action movie that could tickle a starwars like nature but it was so bad... the scenario was just terrible. it felt like playing a video game going on missions after missions but i'm glad you liked it
Part 1 is now, I dare to say, a kinda "good" movie, with some "realy unneccessary & bad" stuff, making it still unbalanced, but the foundation, now, is strong. Part 2 on the other hand, is still a kinda "bad" movie, though better only because of the brutal action. Is it now enjoyable? Yes... IF you want a taste of R-Rated SW looking/feeling more like WH40K, with generic/stupid Anime-mentality! Is it better, quality-wise? Absolutely not... the script-writing, directing, character-progression, storytelling & worldbuilding is quite bad, not a single original idea, and the ego & hubris of the director is still palpable! Yesterday I heard both DCs are flopping as well, even worse than the castrated versions, so it's possible this franchise get's cancelled. Which would be a shame. But if this wants to be continued, if it wants to survive, it realy needs to get it's holy shit together & make good use of basic moviemaking & common sense 24/7.
@@eldritchmorgasm4018 Agreed. Snyder was given too much creative control over this one. As I said in my review,a tighter edit of all versions could have made one really good movie here.
I hope your check from the Studio was worth the price of your soul. No, there is nothing good, "kinda" or otherwise, about any version of this garbage.
FFS I thought the whole point of Rebel Moon was that Snyder could do his own thing

To me, these movies are art for art's sake.
Snyder is a madman! he made something special! I can only imagine what kind of fascinating stories you could tell in this universe!
@@gwynbleidd07 There’s definitely potential given what has been set up. There’s a video game coming apparently as well as other spin off media

I've read that there is only a few story lines (15)? IDK but I enjoy itYou critics might need to go on vacation.
more like misfire to a bigger misfire, never thought a piece of shit could get any worse.
Both are masterpieces to me i had a great great great time i was not boring at all whoooooo
Rebel moon directors cuts are better than anything that Disney star wars have produced in 10+ years.

A ship being powered by an enslaved alien being has been done many times before, most recently in Star Trek Discovery and the Lost in Space reboot.

Aaaad...yet another lesbian girl boss.
I'll pass.
The movie makes it abundantly clear that she likes dudes.
If it was that good, the original cut wouldve never been a dud
The original cut of Justice League is a dud,but The Snyder Cut is a masterpiece

I think the show has a lot of potential just needs some tweaking, I’m looking forward to the second addition, director’s cut only.

Snyder has an elevated ego
He needs a "no" person. To be fair, so did George Lucas.

Clickbait bogus headline is bogus clickbait.
