A few days ago, director Zach Schneider once again released a behind-the-scenes photo of "Zhenglian" on social media, which once again evoked the expectations of movie fans for the director's cut version.
But at the same time, the foreign media "Variety" speculated that the release of the director's cut version of "Zhenglian" is basically impossible. This time
really made fans very worried.
Looking at the publicity of the director's cut version by the "Zhenglian" team in the past few months, on the one hand, the appetite of movie fans has been suffocated. On the other hand, the speech that has always been just a mouthful also made this appetite a little annoying, even Suspected of "hype".
In late August, "Sea King" Jason Momoa said on the social platform that he was invited by the guide, and watched the rough-cut version of the director of "Zhenglian", and was very excited to use "Mrs. !" to describe this version (original words: The Snyder cut is ssssiiicccckkkkkk!).
If it was said that fans were wishful thinking who wanted to see the director's cut version of "Zhenglian", then Jason Momoa's post is that confirmed the existence of the director's cut version of "Zhenglian" , and the director would The edited version is also very interesting. This also really aroused the audience's expectations for the director's cut version of "Zhenglian".
In early November, "Zhenglian" photographer Fabian Wagner stated that the "relevant content" of the director's cut version of "Zhenglian" would be released. The netizens who have figured out the routine are very calm: just post a few set photos and concept pictures. Facts have proved that the netizen's speculation is correct.
In late November, "Superman" Henry Cavill talked about the trilogy playing "Superman" in an interview. He said that "Superman: Man of Steel" was a good start, and "Batman vs. Superman" was basically a bat. Xia movie, "Justice League"? "It didn’t work." (this film is not good) is so outspoken, it also shows that everyone is very dissatisfied with the chaotic public version of "Zhenglian". On the contrary, they look forward to the director's cut version with pure director's characteristics.
"Batman" Ben Affleck and "Wonder Woman" Gal Gadot also called for the release of the director's cut version of "Zhenglian" on social media, and Zha Dao personally reposted it. It can be seen that in addition to the fans, the directors and protagonists of "Zheng Lian" have a strong expectation for the director's cut version, but there is a lot of resistance.
watched the director, staff, and digital protagonists continue to release news of the director's cut version, but there was no movement, which really made fans look forward to and upset. But thinking about it, they are also very helpless. Many fans will simply appeal: "Let's release the director's cut version!" But the reality is far from simple. Why is
difficult to issue? The reason why
is called the "director's cut version" is because this version has a lot of plot screens that the director likes but did not include in the release version. That is to say, most of the shots of that have not been released before are not made in the later stage of , especially It is this kind of commercial special effects film. The post-production costs are very huge, and the distribution funds are also needed. But who will pay for this million dollars?
For Warner, if you don’t give money, you will be pressured by the public opinion of movie fans; but if you give this money, on the one hand, it shows that Warner in disguised form admitted that the release version of "Zhenglian" born under its stubborn opinion was a failure . On the other hand, investing in the post-production and distribution of an "old film" that has already been screened is not a profitable job in itself.
Therefore, the relevant "informed persons" mentioned in the article by the foreign media "Variety" will make "daydreaming" comments on the release of the director's cut version of "Zhenglian".
Just like the movie "Shinjuku Incident" that Mr. More talked about these past two days, it is similar to "Zhenglian". In order to facilitate the release of the movie, director Er Dongsheng also made drastic cuts to the movie, so that he is not too Satisfied (all versions circulated on the Internet are relatively "redacted versions"), but he himself admitted that the first cut original film (director’s cut version) has been on his hard drive for ten years, but there is no later and With the release funds, the "Shinjuku Incident" investors, the Emperor and Jackie Chan, will certainly not vote for an old film that cannot be screened. The only thing that can be done is to wait until funds are available, make it, and then release it on the Internet.
can also see the helplessness of some film creators, forIn the market, only compromises can be made, and no one knows how much effort has been spent. Many of the parts that truly reflect the consciousness of the creators are hidden under the pressure of the market and investors.
Although this long time of going back and forth to cheat the appetite of the audience will upset some netizens, we should also understand that this is their request for help from online public opinion, which is really helpless.
