      Ah yes let's pretend like if he makes bad stuff now means he was always a bad filmmaker.
      Legend of the Guardians, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman(director's cut), his Justice League - are all decent at worst and phenomenal at best. He isn't my favorite director(Nolan is), but I'm grateful for the good stuff he did before.
      Attacking him now is like Cassie attacking his dad in And Man 3 "sure you did good before, but what about now?".

    The problem with Rebel Moon is that it relies way too heavily on its audiences knowledge of tropes that are done better in other media while not doing them uniquely enough to be interesting. So the whole time your going like "Oh its just like 7 Samurai, that looks like 40k, that's Star Wars, etc. that's space Catholicism, " and then when its over your left with something half decent but no substance of its own and its like what's the point? Then when it does do something unique its buried in 50 lines of exposition.

      Patrick (H) Willems has a good take about his movies: Snyder is a fine action director with a great sense of aesthetics, which has caused him to be hailed as a visionary, which in turn has incited him to bite off more than he could chew by trying to make "smart movies".
      But since he's just really a style-over-substance guy, that mostly translates as his movies ending up as edgy and vaguely pretentious.

    It's crazy to me Zack had a career to begin with. He was a music video director at first which explains his, well, everything really. He made a Dawn of the Dead remake with James Gunn but what really put him on the map was 300 and Watchmen. 300 was perfect for him as it was a comic with a simple story and great visuals that he just did shot for shot. Watchmen on the other hand, as Zack explained it, was something he did as he thought the usual superhero comic book things were for nerds and that watchmen was cool, and edgy, and dark and all he cared about was the violence, sex, and crude language. This is a stance that Alex Moore, the author of Watchmen and the Killing Joke, credits as why he doesn't want to make comics cause people end up missing the point. Again, Zack just did a shot for shot remake of Moore's comic but stripped it of subtext. This is a man who never should have been allowed to write for a story, much less be the lead creative for super hero movies. He is anathema to the very concept.

    • @stevewalker6240
      @stevewalker6240 Місяць тому +4

      Exactly. And for anyone saying he is good at visuals, no, he's not. It's Larry Fong (his cinematographer) that made his movies look beautiful. Since Zack don't use him again and instead making his own cinematography in Army of the Dead and Rebel Moon, his visuals have become so fkin bad and ugly, so fkin terrible. If you love visuals of 300, Watchmen, MoS, BvS, ZSJL, then praise Larry Fong, not Zack.

      To deny this, is to deny any director in the world.
      That's like denying Nolan any credit for how Interstellar looked, or James Cameron for how Avatar looked.
      Snyder came up with the ideas and the visuals and the cinematographers brought them to life. That is true. But don't think he has no visual talent whatsoever, is the most petty, vindictive shit you can put out.

      And what do you mean, Rebel Moon tried to be different? Only thing it did was rip the serial numbers off of Star Wars, since it's no longer a Star Wars product, and replace it with bits from other series like 40K. There wasn't anything original, it was just a shameless copy.

    Maybe eventually, one day, people will figure out that drawing a bunch of random threads that imply a master plan, with no actual idea for how they connect, isn't as clever as he thinks it is.

    I’m just so sick of the hot takes, the contrarian views, the punching down, the blind worship, the controversies, and the rumors we have heard about this guy for the last DECADE PLUS. I hate how no matter what you say about him, it brings out the crazy in everybody. Not just the ones who like him, but the ones that hate him as well.

      You're either dumb or deaf, or both. There are people mocked his daughter endlessly. People who insist his movies somehow prove he's a fascist. They called him the worst thing ever to happen to DC. The haters are just as bad as the cultists.

    This video is entirely inaccurate. Pretty sure Snyder cultists would defend Rebel Moon Part 2 as hard as they did with Batman v. Superman.

    I never mentally recovered from Watchmen. I remember angrily ranting about the movie with a friend of mine at the time (who had also read the comic) for 2 hours about how much it missed the point. It made me irrationally upset. And like, yeah, that's it. No one else gets a shot at making that movie now because it isn’t enough of a franchise to ever merit a remake. There are so many other directors who could have done the story justice, but we'll just never get to see a thematically competent version that isn’t mired by over the top violent action and slow-motion nonsense.
