They&#8217;ve proven it multiple times throughout the years. Perhaps the biggest show of this was their years-long campaign for Warner Bros. to put out\u00a0the director&#8217;s cut\u00a0of Justice League, after\u00a0the release of Joss Whedon&#8217;s heavily modified version in 2017. Their efforts ultimately led to Zack Snyder&#8217;s Justice League in 2021, a four-hour version of the film. That success prompted them to ask\u00a0Warner Bros. to allow the Man of Steel\u00a0director to see his plans for the DCEU through.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then, something happened&#8230; The DCEU came to an end. Warner Bros. Discovery founded DC Studios, with James Gunn and Peter Safran at the helm, who had a brand-new universe planned out. Despite that, Snyder fans remained hopeful the Snyderverse would continue, and they made their voices heard. There have been multiple campaigns to restore the DCEU, even going as far as to request Netflix to buy the property off WBD. Now, the director&#8217;s\u00a0have\u00a0found another display of support for the defunct universe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>IMAX recently posted to X, asking its customers what movies of the past they&#8217;d like to watch on its screens:<strong> <\/strong><strong>&#8220;Calling all cinephiles.
