Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon Franchise Officially Dead

cosmicbook.news/rebel-moon-dead-netflix-zack-snyder

“We outlined movies 3, 4, 5, and 6… very detailed outlines, and Zack has literally plotted out the whole world. We know where we can go… we’ve written… detailed outlines…The second movie was to find the princess. And the third movie is to make sure that the princess is where she should be — sitting on the throne and properly ruling… over the Mother World.”

“With some luck and an act of God, we’ll get to go back to that world.”

why did it fail?

lol this shit was so bad

cuz it was shit

Jeets on suicide watch.

it was so horrible even normies didnt care for it
snyders washed
he should just stick to cinematography
he cant recognize decent scripts to attach to his films all by himself unless its something he's copying

It's seven samurai without the charming characters and the stakes

They were proof that Zack Snyder is awful as a writer, he should stick with directing other people's scripts. The sticking point about his writing in these movies is that Snyder doesn't cares about "The present", he is either showing the cool lore of the past (either via extended flashbacks or by going THIS IS GLUPTOR SHITTOR, PRINCE OF THE NAKARAMA SYSTEM, CHAMPION OF THE SEVENTH STAR TOURNAMENT...) or dangling what just might happen next.

No one even watched it.
Snyder should not direct. He would be good as a showrunner if he has all these ideas of how to build a world, but he can't direct or write to save his life.
I mean... he couldnt even fix the focus on his cameras for Army of the Dead

Because the writing was fucking shit and made no sense. Snyder cannot come near a blockbuster ever again after this disaster.

kek what a kwab

He does have a unique style ill give him that. I can look at a movie and know he directed it which is what a director wants, but it only works for his graphic novel adaptations.

if kojimbo tried to make a movie would he be better or worse than sneeder?

He does have a unique style ill give him that.

No it fucking doesn't, it took me 35min untill I saw the fucker in a tuxedo to realize I wasn't watching Star Wars peripherals

bots don't pay to watch

Consideting he already makes movies and they suck, I'll say he'll suck.
Also have no power of condensation, his movies are 18 hours long and even then leave loose ends

these are the imperial troops from planet Imperius, the seat of the imperial empire

they are all dressed in imperial clothes and also have roman names

these are a rebel faction called the rebels, they come from a planet rebelia, that is currently rebelling against the empire

these are farmers from the farmlands of Farmia, they all look like farmers and they farm grain

this is a robot made for warfare, he is a roboticus mechanicus from the factories of factoria mechanica robotica, he is made for war but he doesn't want to fight, he also fights amazingly well and kills people in a cool way

this is a shirtless tarzano from the planet tarzania, he has long hair and is good with animals, here he tames a gryphon also from the planet tarzania which is also known in the old tongue as gryphonia, because it has gryphons, he's good at taming them

this is Nemesis from planet Childonia, she lost her child so she's killing other evil mothers like the spidermother, she has two artificial arms and can't hold babies anymore only cleavesabers

this is Kai from planet Eire, he has an irish accent and can't be trusted, he also has a twin brother called Wanai who has one eye, he shows up in the sequel

this is the other gladiator from the movie gladiator, here he plays a gladiator in the castor arena on the moon of pollux

these are the slutty latex bimbos of sluticus V, they play a large role in the extended cut as dangerous sluts

#RestoreTheMoonverse

I said He as in snyder. Learn to read you fucking retard.
Watchmen 300 suckerpunch superman bvs all have his style

Rated R version came way later

Maybe he can shop the IP to Netflix... oh wait

It would be the biggest pile of shit ever made and I wish he never tries to make one cause it would break his heart

he should just stick to cinematography

On the contrary. He should stick to purely directing. Leave the writing and cinematography to others.

PLEASE REDEEM THE REBEL MOON

>these are the slutty latex bimbos of sluticus V, they play a large role in the extended cut as dangerous sluts

i will now watch your film

Snyder should stick to directing honestly, leave the cinematography to frequent collaborator like Larry Fong, script to Terrio, etc. He got great mind as director and all his storyboard are great but he's no scriptwriter and all his cinematography sucks

Saaaars...

I didn't know you were in it.

It was a mess but I liked it still. Would love to get a couple more movies.

All suck shit too, so maybe his style is just making shitty movies

I like some of the cinematography and writing but yes, it's too inconsistent and Terrio/Fong are undeniably better.

Its whole shtick is "Remember how Star Wars took some stuff from Seven Samurai? Well, we're gonna turn Seven Samurai, yeah just that film, into an space movie!". Then they realized their idea was shit so they decided to rip off Star Wars more, throw slowmo in there, throw gore, throw contrived edgelord writing, etc. Zack couldn't just make a nice little movie, he needed to make another self-indulgent attempt at a Cinematic Universe.

I had more fun watching the Dune rip-off that Snyder's favourite country made, than the fucking slog that is "Not Your Grandpa's Star Wars!".

but I'm the most important character!

I'm the pwincess!

Somehow it's the dumbest, most repugnant people in the world that have a hate boner for Snyder.

She shoulda been raped in the first movie

I don't understand why they released two versions of each movie, were they really just trying to do #Snydercut again?

I only saw the first and thought it was meh, is the second one better?

The first one is good until they meet the cringe militia people. Second is about the same quality-wise but there's no clean cutoff here. It's all over the place.

no it was already bad before that.
the whole episodic nature of the story, going from one place to another recruiting new members, was absolute dogshit.

It was hilarious how exposed he got, he lost all his cred that it even stopped kojimbo from making movies. He really thought he was going to replace star wars and all he did was make ai slop.

Ugly

he also has a twin brother called Wanai who has one eye

you son of a bitch

headline says "officially"

summary of quote actually says "effectively"

What a shitty clickbait site

he should just stick to cinematography

really?

Well she was, briefly

Not even jeets shilled this trash, it was that bad, jeets also lost the motivation because capeshit is literally dead and there was no point in the "fight" anymore or supporting Snyder

The headline is from some no cred chud website.

You are an idiot. Like total retard level. He's making a UFC movie with Dana White and an LAPD action flick next. He's fine. Rebel Moon is nowhere near as bad as the imbeciles that didn't even get the gist of it claim.

Can't believe Netflix got bamboozled by a bunch of jeet bots on twitter into financing Snyder's retarded R rated not-Star Wars garbage that NOBODY liked or cared about

Seriously, no one talks about how much of a loss this was for Netflix, they legitimately thought the Snyder hype was real

it just really wasn't good and most of the movie is WOAH CHECK OUT MY BACK STORY

Unironically too conservative with its narrative (structure) and the cast wasn't charismatic enough to make up for it.

He has ALWAYS double dipped on his movies.
How many version of watchmen are there?
Or the BvS: Ultimate Super-duper Final Authoritative (we mean it this time) Directors cut
Which isn't to be confused with the "we added 40 extra minutes of shirtless dudes doing crossfit and rubbing their nipples against eachother because I'm in the closet" edition.
Zack Snyder seems like a genuine and nice guy in every interview I've seen with him, but he really is a victim of his own success.
After his dawn of the dead remake and 300 made the studios a shitload of money they wrote him a blank check. I think it would have been better if he spend another 10 years as a working director with people in the studio able and willing to say "No," and he could learn some self restraint and polish up his craft.

im not that guy, but im just curious: What is egregiously terrible about this? it's basic and uninspired but it's practical and it's not like it's breaking any rules or completely amateur either.

You think any of the retards here would know about rules?

the disgusting color grading and stupid lensing

its not in focus

Shitflix

Not even once

they do that to make it seem alien/sci-fi. it's a cheap trick but it's not unusual. lots of movies do it. im sure this was relatively low budget as well.
the movie sucked though, i will admit.
hard to tell. maybe a little.

It's out of focus

yeah a little bit, i see it now.

The reported titles of the intended next ones

Rebel Moon – Chapter Three: A Slough of Ecstasy" and "Rebel Moon – Chapter Four: The Mythstar"

Budget was 160 million for 6 hours or so. And he fucked around with the camera because he likes doing that. Whatever.

For me it's the Emperor character that looks like some random 20 year old guy wearing a fake beard.

looked like AI slop, either as a result of actually BEING AI slop or Snyder just chasing all the pop art aesthetics he could find, resulting in what basically constitutes all AI slop art.

The actions scenes were shit

Too many slow-mo shots

Harvesting wheat in slow-mo lol

Characters were all too edgy

No comedy

No fun

Shitty tech

Plot revolves around farmers and wheat

Overall the movie was gross and not pleasant to watch. It was a 7 samurai ripoff with a cheap 40k aesthetic

oh well, i got what i wanted

spend two hours collecting heroes named Gork the Killaxe and Shart the Bloodanus

they do nothing noteworthy

the crux of the plot is that some farmers don't want to accept 3x the market rate for their crops which would make them huge bank

the selling point of the director cut edition is a guy fucks an octopus

I remember some anon losing his shit trying to explain how the badguys showed up because they knew the farmers were selling grain to the rebels and that's the real reason they were busting their balls.

sequel comes out

no, they're actually there for the actual grain

lmao
additionally hilarious since the same battleship sacked a planet right before that so they could've tanked up on food there, but apparently they REALLY need that grain

the selling point of the director cut edition is a guy fucks an octopus

It's actually a couple of new scenes like child version protagonist being picked up by the villain and ridiculous amounts of strangely satisfying cartoon gore.

40k bros, does this mean the public wouldn't like a movie set in the Warhammer universe.

Snydercucks BTFO yet again

Your pic alone looks cooler than anything on Rebel Moon.

A proper W40K movie accurate to lore would be a huge hit like Mad Max Fury Road. But as we can tell by the Amazon Henry Cavill W40K project, the woke retards will do everything they can to try to stop it because they're assholes who hate cool things that people like.

This is so fucking common nowadays, in both movies and vidya. The current one I'm keeping an eye on is "Exodus", a Mass Effect spiritual successor that already has two novels out with the game's launch nowhere in sight.

got 300

got Watchmen

got Man of Steel

got Batman v Superman Extended Cut

got 300 Rise of an Empire

got Justice League Snyder Cut

got 6h of Rebel Moon

got Twilight of the Gods

guy already has two promising new projects in the pipe

Feeling really btfo'd here.

The Snyder fanboys are genuinely pathetic. You deserve the mockery.

Not a surprise. This movie drew so few dimes Anon Babble didn't even Princess Issa post!

I've yet to see a single fandom that isn't pathetic. I'm not part of fandoms, I just like Snyder and can't stand halfwits trash talking him as if their opinion didn't have negative value.

You sound flustered, Snydercuck

cause it was shit

You sound fat and ugly.

lol isn't his next "project" some cheap cop show?

I think the real problem with 40k is that the scale is fucking crazy, you could maybe do it in a movie with a retarded budget, but there's just too much weird shit and grand scale that if you tried to put it into a tv show or even miniseries its going to look cheap and bad.
How are you going to have space marines next to regular people and have it not look like a joke?
Or you compromise everything and have every scene take place in a boring ass warehouse with some screen saver pasted into the background.
Don't get me wrong, I like 40k, marsboi4lyfe, I just see too many practical constraints.
If you do it with CGI or animation that fixes a lot of the problems, but then you have the issue that a lot of people will ignore it because its a cartoon.

That's definitely the single biggest reason you know it was an absolute bomb.

it's out of focus, it's ugly coloring, it looks like a shot that they'd have in the 90s hercules

america are le imperialist nazi political netflix crap

We outlined movies 3, 4, 5, and 6

Lol, that faggot actually thinks he's on par with James Cameron

UFC movie called Brawler and LAPD cop movie.

This is Wigglytiggly, the Butterbon of Tongar, he fought at the Great Battle of Watahlew

it looks like a shot that they'd have in the 90s hercules

Here we go. Someone who almost gets it.

You just lack basic imagination. A WH40k movie is shit easy to make.

Inquisitor shows up to planet X

establish imperial society right off the bat in a few scenes

turns out that something is wrong, of course

genestealers/chaos cults have infested the planet

fight off the crazed masses

marines show up and save the day in a bloodbath

tease tyranids/orkz for sequel

literally prints money

most of those films are fucking awful

no cute zendaya as Kora

Let's guess the slow cover songs in the respective end credits

Fight Song

Blue (Da Ba Dee)

So dogshit that even Disney passed up on it

funniest part about the whole thing really. There's always someone worse out there.

It was bloody terrible?

and now Disney put rape in Star Wars
Zack truly was the blueprint

Snyder decided to take on every production role possible for some reason.

If not done very high budget it would be less exciting than Rebel Moon.
Zack's rape scenes are much better than that shit from Andor.

The most egregious thing is that a good 20% of the running time of both movies is spent on that evil commander dude constantly acting turbogay. I think Snyder needs to just go direct some gay porn or something and get it out of his system.

That and it being relatively underbudgeted should make people appreciate it a little more. It's a sovlful jankfest like Megalopolis.

I watched the first one when it was released with the uncensored boobibular titascular version and I honestly enjoyed it. It was grade-a sci-fi schlock but I liked the look of it and I had fun imagining reasons for dumb cool looking scenes like burning skeletons in the space ship furnace. I'd honestly like more from it

its basic and uninspired

That's a big problem when you're trying to entertain viewers.

If you want to show a villain entering a village with his goons, you need to make the shot dramatic. You need to increase the contrast of light and dark, make the villain appear intimidating and tall, casting a tall shadow with a face not easily clear and recognizable, as if he's a monster from a lucid dream. You need dramatic angled shots of him from below looking upward. It also helps to darken the sky as if a storm is coming, add lightning and cold wind, make the dramatic entrance nauseating and foreboding for our good guys. Add a heavy dark cloak fluttering in the wind, add red spray paint on black vehicle skin. You also gotta make the evil troops look badass. They gotta appear arrogant and thuggish and innumerable.

Overall, the boring shots aren't even the worst aspect of the film, its how exposition heavy it is. The "show don't tell" rule is repeatedly broken.

Then there's how lore heavy it is. A movie ideally is living in the present. The lore should be tacked on later to explain why so and so is the way it is. The flashbacks were just boring moving slideshows of interesting events that I want to see fleshed out and played out on screen, not just be given tiny snippets of it to tease future prequels and sequels.

Normie here, I cared for it so little I did not watch.

spend a whole movie assembling a team of bland sidekicks

they do nothing of note in the sequel anyway

oh this is a rebel leader badass

dies right away

the bad guy commander is defeated and his body broken which means he'll come back in some monstrous frankenstein form

nope, just comes back looking exactly the same and acting exactly the same (despite warnings by his medical staff that he's coming back 5x more insane)

40lbs woman constantly "kicking ass"

hints that the local girl is the princess, resurrected or otherwise

nope, she's just a local girl

main bad guy emperor that killed the royal family talked about like he's a badass

looks like some twerp with fake beard

I really don't know what the fuck was up with these movies. It's like a retard wrote them and they never went past first napkin draft.

i would share my babybel cheese with she

My favorite part is how much time was spent to assemble a team of highly qualified people then they do absolutely nothing and their specific skills never come into play at all. You can literally skip the entire first movie and lose nothing.

It would be awesome but it would need competence and good CGI. Get the Starships Trooper guy to do it

Snyder pulled a bait-and-switch with the villain introduction in the theatrical version. In the extended we already saw him massacring someone at that point but the way he presents himself to those people is still gentle at first. The scene does not need exaggerated dramatization..

The problem that I'm having with that bad guy dude is that he's just annoying. He's not intimidating or interesting. He's just annoying in general. I was hoping he gets killed off fast so we can move to someone with more screen presence but this guy ended up clowning around for two movies.

I didn't mind his brand of annoying.

Female mc, women aren't badass and don't belong in action. Simple as.

inb4 alien

yes they were shit too

Rebel Moon should've just been one 90 min movie.

This is the actual problem the movie has. Narrative structure way too conservative.

big imperial battleship on a mission to raid entire planets forgot to take provisions with them so they have to hassle some backwater small village with like three buildings total to give up their grain or else

the problem is
she is not attractive
hunnam lacks the gusto of a good lead man
the chink character is neo cringe

I agree with this. The BvS team was ideal.

How are you going to have space marines next to regular people and have it not look like a joke?

Well I would imagine the regular people would be dressed and have their hair and makeup done to look like they'd fit in such a dystopian universe. Dirty torn up factory wear, skinny tanned bodies with rotting teeth, greying dusty hair, a generally filthy and harsh atmosphere with a polluted overcrowded smoggy rat-infested city with people sleeping on the ground and against walls and loud machines and forges and smokestacks. You may have to take creative liberties.

Everyone keeps forgetting that there's some cuck main character farmer dude that's tagging along and is supposed to be the audience stand-in or something idk I think the arab woman pity fucks him later on

i honestly forgot about him. that says enough

It has two big issues. One is telling its story as if it's never been told before, the other one is cringe. You could have the first one without the cringe and it would be okay, you can have the cringe if the movie jumps enough so as not to linger on it. In that sense I agree with you, surmising the narrative structure is the bigger issue.

6 hours alone was egregious. A movie like this shouldn't have been more than 90 min long.

Making it a two parter right off the bat just made it worse.

I don't hate Snyder. I love 300. I just can't believe he made something this dogshit and is proud of it. Its not even a comedic parody, it expects itself to be taken seriously.

Also, Netflix paid him a fuckton for it. Some people really do fail upwards

No you silly faggot, I'm talking about how space marines are 10 ft tall and build like brick shithouses in massive armor.
Thats going to be really hard to pull off in live action without looking awful.

I'm childish. I like overdramatic scenes

“We outlined movies 3, 4, 5, and 6… very detailed outlines

Hack Snyder is officially more competent than Disney Wars.

I am the biggest Snyder faggot in this board and stopped caring for the movie when i learned that the water girl isn't the actual princess. This shit got me so mad.

big imperial battleship on a mission to raid entire planets forgot to take provisions with them

I can forgive them for that. I can imagine a British Royal Navy ship running low on supplies and resorting to piracy during the Napoleonic Wars.

20 years ago it would have done okay, maybe. More like 30 years ago now. But today a random action flick without Hollywood A-listers is just stupid. No one knows who any of these fucking people are. Not a soul. And TV isn’t big enough anymore for them to build enough rapport. Too much YouTube and Reddit and instagram and fucking everything that isn’t TV.

collecting a team of people that never really get used in a way that warranted assembling them

the bad guys have interesting tech, but it never comes into play or matters at all

etc...
literally nothing in this setting that is unique to the setting matters at all

Agree on the first two but they are not that bad.

Issues in order of significance:
1. outdated narrative structure
2. cringe lines of dialogue
3. cast lacking charisma

I don't blame you but that example doesn't really call for too much scrutiny.

he hasn't heard of the Potsdam Giants

First this should have been a TV series with seasons and whatnot so that you can actually immerse yourself and get to know the characters.
Second the writing should have been better.

Honestly, the Norse Gods cartoon Zack Snyder was involved with is pretty much the same story and was way more engaging because it was a series and the character were actually entertaining.

I watched some of it. It was extremely bad, looked like a B Movie.

Why is this still in discussion? It shouldve died on entry. What kept it alive?

...it was bad...

Dude, they literally raided an entire planet when they were looking for those rebels that I'm sure had plenty of food for them to take with, but instead they need grain from some tiny village in the middle of nowhere

The grain was a metaphor.

Its been a year or so since I watched a few minutes of the first movie when it came out on Netflix, got tired of all the flashbacks and exposition, and left

ORKS FIRST TEASE NIDS NEXT

my bad

So what happened with the giant? Do they get inside her metal pussy?

Shows you the mind of investors.
It was a brilliant marketing move on Snyders part; offer them another Star Wars franchise. I bet they ate it up, and theres no chance in hell they read or cared about a script.

In a way he did what they hired him to do.

plot discussion

Nigga. They needed it but didn't need it that bad. It was opportune for them to fuck the villagers over.

I've never seen a movie more convinced of its own grand importance despite being the most incredibly basic sci-fi fantasy premise in history.

KEK.

No, they actually needed it. They say as much on screen in the second movie.

tfw we never got a derailed explanation how space travel was raping the Kali's cooch

it was like 30 people

dude hans landa was such a cool character let’s put him in our movie but also make him a weird sex freak cause that’s heckin funny xD

I liked the tech, scenery, wardrobe and general universe but I hated the characters other than the main bad guy who likes getting raped by a tenticle monster. The spider tank belching smoke and their crazy capitol starship was really cool

Yeah but not that bad. They were still in shape to do shit. Never saw the problem with this.

be out there

hunt rebels

low on grain

find grain

tell bumfucks gib grain or will kill you

hunt for rebels some more

come back collect grain

I think Zack Snyder just fucking hate gay people. For whatever reason every movie of his will have a obnoxious gay guy who's the villain of the story, while all the heroes are masculine and honorable. He's just a big homophobe.

kek

Snyder got too full of himself. The idea isn't terrible but they somehow rush and drag out the formation of the team. The backstory for the MC also makes zero sense.
The action isn't particularly impressive either.
I didn't bother watching the second movie.

hate gay people

He's one of the biggest closet cases in hollywood.

the first movie was two parts that each had a 3 hour runtime

It's just fucking obnoxious. Xerxes in 300, Ozymandias in Watchmen, Lex Luthor in BvS.

There was no reason at all to make Ozymandias obnoxiously gay in Watchmen. The character in the comics was implied to be homo, yes, but he was still a cool and very manly looking character. But it was a Snyder movie and gay characters need to be extra faggot. Same with Lex Luthor.

300 is debatable as he pretty much lifts panels 1:1 from the comic

no!

stop making fun of homosexuals (narcissists)!

I didn't know Adrian was gay in Watchmen. Wtf?

Yeah, nothing quite like raiding entire planets where you can simply collect food provisions out of their warehouses and going out of your way to hassle a small out of the way village for grain so your battleship bakers can bake fresh bread.

Truly a visionary story right there. I'm sure in your grug mind this is serviceable premise for multiple 3 hour movies.

You can make fun of homossexual all you want, but not every fucking villain needs to be a super faggoty faggot. It ends up ruining what could otherwise be a cool villain. Lex Luthor was super fucking gay and he did that just because Luthor is supposed to be the villain, so he is skinny, weak, soft-spoken, weird, zeisty, and so on. Luthor could have been cool.

You can pretty much expect every villain in a Snyder's movie to just be uncomfortable gay in a very pathetic way.

it's real

they even have a tabletop game lined up

I wish some dumb bankers would give me a couple hundred million dollars to basically piss away too.

raiding

It only became a raid cause rebels.

warehouse

Would have had to further back because they were in RM's equivalent of the Outer Rim iirc.

I'm sure in your grug mind this is serviceable premise for multiple 3 hour movies

Dude, you're the one talking plot like a baby.

I can't remember if I saw the second movie but the first movie was WAY too generic and derivative of Star Wars and Seven Samurai. They should have released the "unrated" cut from the get-go instead of making everybody wait for months on end. It seemed like they thought they really had the next Star Wars on their hands.

Now that Star Wars has rape there's no point in Rebel Moon existing

Pariah Nexus, but with Ultramarroons and Henry Cavill.

Pariah Nexus, but without a chapter title card every 60 seconds.

warehouse

Nevermind that, didn't read properly. I dunno. They fucked up some people on the squid world or something later but that sure caused more problems than fucking up a shitty village plus different species need different nutrition I'd assume, so not every warehouse might be suitable.

My point is that in order to make the stakes more real and have more dramatic impact there should've been a reason for them to go out of their way to raid that specific village instead of just grain. Especially when Snyder made sure to show that the same battleship is out there raiding planets casually.
Basically make the bad guy want that village for a specific and plot-relevant reason instead of some mundane one.

Not to mention that he gave the villagers days (weeks?!) of time to evacuate before he comes back. All thirty or so of them could've just packed up and left for a vacation and then returned once the battleship situation blew over.

If cosplayers can pull it off, then Amazon can as well.

That too

The brown fit chick literally told them they want it because evil.

Except could they because they barely had anything to get off planet with? Also, he might've assessed correctly that they were to proud to leave.

I'll have to rewatch it some of these days but I honestly care little for plot shit like this and was way more interested in where Snyder was going with the divine feminine stuff.

He should've had someone do a once-over of the story.

What did that black gladiator dude even do in the end?

I honestly care little for plot shit like this and was way more interested in where Snyder was going with the divine feminine stuff.

That's entire my point dude. He's wasting time with a moron-level mundane plot/hook about grain when he could've done a million other more interesting things within that setting. He wasted two movies AND the entire setting concept on a shitty seven samurai grain village plot.

You can have the plot be basically the Two Towers with a city undersiege from orks and chaos cultists. With the imperial navy be about to exterminatus the planet when the space Marines turn up and wreak everyone's shit.

Some of the visuals and ideas for the setting were neat but the movie was retarded

This giant fucking spaceship of 1000+ people needs food

We'll spend X amount of insane resources to go to a villlage that can maybe produce enough food to feed the crew of this ship for 2 days

WAT

He paid some artists to come up with cool concept designs but when it comes to the actual ideas it's all retarded.

I don't even disagree with you on that. I've said it multiple times ITT that

narrative structure

cringe dialogue

actors lacking charisma

drag it down.
Snyder seemingly expected he'd get 6 movies instead of 2. He sold Netflix 2 as 4 movies (which are really 1 that got 2 different version, each cut in half) for 160 million. Should've gone bigger on the budget and shorter on the runtime for the entire story he wants to tell, no step by step Campbell retrace. Who knows if Netflix would have financed though. He gambled and right now it's not looking great. Wouldn't be surprised if they gave him one more to wrap up the mess once he's done with his next projects.

You're right, Snyder actually has talent.

I liked it, I dont know why kids were so salty about it. There are way worse movies out there like all the trash from star wars.

People are way too cynical about auteur jank like this. A 5/10 Snyder flick is still better than soulless Disney slop or farthouse shit about a drunk pigeon licking up some woman's period.

Nothing personal Zack

Anyone making big fantasy or sci-fi shit these days should do the same because the alternative is just making shit up as you go along like Disney did with the Star Wars sequels. Granted you're also supposed to make your movies not complete ass as well but I guess that's something that Hollywood people tend to forget.

he couldn't even fix the focus

he has the photographic sensibility of a 16 year old girl with her first SLR camera.
just hire a cinematographer zack
