Zack Snyder has said he has the footage he needs to "fix" Sucker Punch, but he might need the support of a fan campaign to get his extended cut off the ground. The folks at Empire asked Snyder what, if anything, he would want to change about one of his movies, which resulted in him bringing Sucker Punch into the conversation. He once again expressed his interest in returning to the movie to rework it but said he needs permission to move forward with his long-gestating plans. "The only movie I would change is Sucker Punch because it never really got finished correctly," Snyder admitted. "Even the director's cut is not really the correct cut. It's really just an extended version. If I had the chance, I would fix that movie. "I have the footage already shot. They just have to let me put it together," he added. "We ask every now and then. We have to ask again. I think there has to be a window when no one's got the movie."

The director also gave his approval for fans "to start a campaign" if they want to see it happen. Famously, of course, the fan movement that demanded the release of Snyder's Justice League led to Warner Bros. finally greenlighting his version of the DC team-up movie after years of online rallying. Snyder has long vocalised his desire to work on a new and improved cut of Sucker Punch, reiterating his intentions to release a director's cut of the 2011 action-fantasy film just last year. He said the revised version would include the movie's original ending with Babydoll, which was deemed "too weird" for the theatrical release.

Movie is already perfect there's nothing to fix. Excellent soundtrack as well as a cover song that trumps the original.

Justice League needed fixing because Josh Whedon fucked up the vision.

Fun fact: part of the issue was that was supposed to deliver a PG-13 rating and legitimately didn't know what he was allowed to include. So he just winged it and didn't ask anybody.

Sucker Punch is a good time, it's basically live action Heavy Metal. As always with ZS, the Extended Cut is the way to go.

AV Club called it "Comic Con: The Movie" back when it came out, and that description always stuck with me.

I can't see a way it can be changed to make it better.

I'm guessing there's a lot of footage at the beginning that was cut. They probably had scenes where the stepfather cut a deal with the psychiatrist to falsify the records authorizing the lobotomy.

Just a guess. Zack Snyder fucking loves long exposition and execs always cut it.

Hmm. The way Zack answered made it seem like that his ideal changes would change to tone, theme, or perhaps even the central story of the movie. But if it's just exposition, then nothing needs to be done.

They apparently actually filmed the dances that happen in the brothel world.

...Which doesn't make sense storywise, since the movie showed us what she thinks about instead in the fantasy worlds, so I have no idea how it'd be edited. Also, the descriptions the other characters give of them seemed like they were written with the dance happening offscreen. It always felt like that was the point. I don't get it.

He needs to plead with Russia, because they're the ones who did the whole Snyder Cut shit.

I've never heard a Pixies cover that was better than the Pixies version.

That still hasn't changed.

How did this get made is a podcast where they talk about/make fun of bad/weird movies, it doesnt actually answer how does it get made. I can see the confusion.

Ive seen it live twice, once with the movie holy matrimony and the other with samurai cop

its a great podcast
