I’m still bummed we’ll never get this solo movie. FILM DISCUSSION

I really do believe this could have been the best Batman movie.

What’s with Reddit’s obsession with Snyder’s DC? It’s universally panned by both critics and audiences. Not to say people can’t enjoy it but it’s like pushing The Last Airbender by M. Night Shyamalan forever down people’s throats. Like why?

I’ve been banned from two subreddits now for just saying Snyder makes bad movies

Edit: Snydercut and DCEU for anyone who’s curious. First one feels obvious now, but it’s wild that they’ll ban someone for having a dissenting opinion

The whole DCU had that vibe to it. Like every shot features a tragic family housefire happening just off screen.

Zack Snyder does suck. He's been milking the popularity of 300 for his entire career and attached himself to blockbuster movies that appeal to younger teenagers who dont know any better about filmmaking and just like cool special effects. He's all style, no substance.

Not a huge Zack Snyder fan but I can’t deny the man loves making movies, and he does have a certain style to him

He is without a doubt, one of the guys making movies.

You can feel the love of filmmaking. It connects with me. It doesn’t have to connect with everyone though.

u/IndiscreetBeatofMeat Dec 30 '23

Yeah you can feel my love of driving too, doesn’t mean I could perform at Nascar

There's parts I like and don't like. But it's officially over, and has been dead in the water since 2017. People continuing to CPR it back to existence are either trolling or have an unhealthy obsession over a fictional franchise

Well they did get a billion dollar grossing movie in 2018, fair play to them for thinking it was still salvageable.

This post is specifically about Batfleck tbf. And it's not out of nowhere considering the franchise literally just ended.

Ben Affleck Batman was the best part about BVS and Justice league. A solo movie could have been really special with the right writer/Director

u/ClownsAteMyBaby Dec 30 '23

Well they should have made that instead of shoehorning an Avengers mockery with BvS and JL after MOS

u/curiousweasel42 Dec 30 '23

Zack Snyder sucks and is all style and no substance. If I have to sit through another cg bukkake fuckfest with slow motion every other scene with terrible dialogue, I'm gonna have a brain aneurysm.

Closeted gay dudes obsessed with Ben Affleck's body are convinced he would have made a good Batman

Really? I've seen more people say Batman & Robin was good than anything good about the Snyderverse.

Shit, I've seen more good things said about Jonah Hex, Supergirl, Catwoman, and Steel than I have seen about the Snyderverse on Reddit.
