Fans of filmmaker Zack Snyder understand that the theatrical cut of each director’s movies is not the be all and end all version. The director frequently brings Director’s Cuts of his best works, and those tend to be the versions of the films that his fans prefer, be it the Director’s Cut of Watchmen, to the legendary Snyder Cut of Justice League … which has a celebrated, controversial history. There have been rumblings of a “Snyder Cut” of one of Snyder’s lesser-known features (at least compared to, say, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice), with the director adding fuel to the fire to get fans amped up.
Zack Snyder directed a number of music videos before bursting on the scene with 2004’s Dawn of the Dead, which belongs in the conversation of the 30 best horror movies. He moved on to 300 and Watchmen, which earned him more than enough cache to start doing “one for me” projects. That included Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole and Sucker Punch, and it’s the latter that Snyder is currently discussing as being worthy of a Director’s Cut.
