I’m not a big comic book movie guy. But Snyder’s 3 became my fave movies of all time. I prefer movies that take themselves more seriously. That’s not saying comedy is no good in them. It just happens to be my taste. For example I love movies like Blade runner 2049, Dune and also rewatch those a bunch.
But as soon as I saw Black Adam I was really bummed out. It was just a Marvel movie to me in tone but also messy and worst of all destroyed the canon of the “Snyderverse.”
I was big into the movement of the Snydercut and it was a beautiful thing having that come to fruition . He ( Snyder ) seems like a cool guy and I hope his family can heal. I’ve never seen such hatred thrown at a movie director before.
I don’t believe DC fans when they say they won’t come back now. The ones I talked to really liked Black Adam so I’m thinking they just want to win some silly comic book rivalry. Because the sane ones hated Marvel movies for the tone.
If the movies have a serious tone I may check out but with Gunn I doubt it. I don’t enjoy his movies so far or Peacemaker. Not my thing.
I follow directors more now. I’ll check out anything by Snyder, Villeneuve, Ridley Scott and most of Nolan’s stuff. So really looking forward to Rebel Moon, Dune Part 2, Oppenheimer..
