re: Zac Snyder to direct Justice league after Batman vs Superman

That cheesy, aw shucks 1940's appeal was deliberate. That meant a little overacting, some scenery chewing by caricatures. It HAD to feel like Leave it to Beaver or close to it.

The bottom line is that Captain America The First Avenger felt cohesive. Man of Steel felt like Snyder was trying to do some things that Nolan had done with Batman, but at the same time supe it up (pun intended) to where the fights were over the top and played out like something you'd see in Sucker Punch of 300. Then he tried to shove a love interest that made no sense into the movie and you came away with one of the most disappointing superhero movies of the last decade. Everything felt forced. The story was, itself, pretty good, but nothing felt real, nothing felt like it belonged together. Maybe Snyder was making some high meta statement about how out of place Superman was on Earth by making the movie a jumbled mess, but I doubt it.

I hate that guy so much

Idk why he missed the mark with MoS but he is still the guy that gave me Watchmen. Imo, not many other people could have made a better Watchmen movie, so I know he is capable of making a good superhero film. I'm willing to give him another shot simply because Watchmen is one of my favorites and the best superhero movie to date imo.

I loved his Watchmen movie.

We'd have been better served if he'd picked a few great Superman comics and copied them as closely as he did Watchmen. (Instead of the Superman stuff that he chose to incorporate.)
