…and we’re here again, I thought Ayer had given up on this. I mean, if it gets released, I’d like to see it. Presuming there are no legal issues in releasing this new cut, I wonder what the cost is to the studio? Does this cut require any post-production work? Any VFX need finishing? If the cost is minimal, why not release it digitally at a small cost?

    It could actually hurt. I love the Snyder Cut, but the rallying to get it out created a cult-like group that hates on anything DC not made by Snyder.

    On top of that, most people don’t even know which heroes are Marvel and which are DC. Having more than 1 DC universe releasing at a time will be confusing to people, and should only be done if that universe is really really successful (Joker, The Batman).
