Since it& #39;s now public knowledge, I can say some things I& #39;ve not been able to say before: the amount of $ spent on Snyder& #39;s JL isn& #39;t a reflection of his original cut being as incomplete as folks used to claim. It& #39;s b/c new footage is being shot beyond just finishing his cut.
The original "Snyder Cut" we talked a/b for the past year-plus was more than 90+% complete, & did NOT need tens of millions to get THAT cut into shape. The higher dollar amount is b/c the work on the film includes reediting it into individual episodes + NEW footage.
For example, there are certain DC characters originally intended to be in JL, but those scenes weren& #39;t filmed & it was dropped at the time. Now, however, those things can be added in, as well as other scenes, & it all needs different editing into episodes w/the right pacing.
So no, the original "it& #39;ll take tens of millions of $ to finish Snyder Cut" claims were NOT proven true by the budgeting for ZSJL. The reason some press have claimed "we were right all along" is b/c some WB folks were (falsely) telling the press no new scenes would be shot.
