When I saw ‘The Cut’ today, I discussed with @DavidAyerMovies the ‘deeper meanings’ within the film. I was really sad to hear how he felt misunderstood for years over a character’s portrayal. When, had his film been shown as intended people would have seen what the subject matter he was trying to cover.
It was, it still is a very important issue! A parallel storyline if you will. I wonder why the studio didn’t want that subject matter covered?

Evidently, @RTAyerCutSS saw more depth to the cut of Suicide Squad that he saw. He further states:
[David Ayer] was trying to highlight a danger in our society within his movie for others to see & learn from. It was powerful & had a dark twist. In fact the character development of all characters are so much more developed in the first 20mins than all of the entire theatrical version.
David & the cast truly deserve for the proper film to be released as intended. We Must not give up the fight. We must never stop asking @wbd to correct the former regimes mistakes. David had a vision, he more than deserves for it to be realised. – Admin 1
With the Justice League getting its Zack Snyder cut into HBO Max, there truly is hope for The Ayer Cut. In addition, there is the fact that Warner Bros. Discovery under David Zaslav is more keen on theatrical releases. Moreover, recent developments also show that Ben Affleck is getting more traction as the Batman for the DCEU. Indeed, getting pieces into place to launch Zaslav’s 10-year plan for DCEU may be key to realizing what fans wish. Ultimately, if the fans are happy, the franchise will be happy too.
