Now this may end up being what folks really wanted to see - a hardcore R-Rated Star Wars story

Am I wrong, but that first trailer, there looked to be a lot of new content?

They noted that when the Director's Cuts were announced is there are scenes Snyder filmed differently depending on which cut it fit into.

I have a suspicion I will enjoy these a lot more.  Now they may not be "better" in the conventional sense.  The basic silly story is going to be the same.  But I am assuming he's fleshing out a lot of stuff that got short shrift in the original versions (like that Robot) and much of the character backstories.  

Plus, sex.

Zack Snyder wanted to create an R-Rated 'Star Wars' franchise and Netflix leadership wanted PG-13 content for a wider audience. They came to an arrangement where both were created.

Now at least we can see how much of a difference the riskier content makes for the story.

Snyder on how Netflix wanted a softer PG-13 franchise and how he convinced its execs to also film his original story.

Watched the first 40 minutes before work. THIS is what Netflix should have gone with to differentiate the story from Star Wars - a hardcore Sci-Fi thriller full of the roughest scenes that Disney would very much shy away from. Though with Star Wars you had a feeling this was happening.

Looking forward to finishing this later today.

Finished the first Director's Cut film and really enjoyed this much more than the PG-13 cut. I have to agree with this reviewer.
