Keep telling yourself that lie, if it makes you feel better.
Depends on your definition of Snyderman. If just mean the actor himself... I hope not. Henry Cavill was well cast.
On the other hand, some of the writing (i.e. the later scenes with Pa and Ma Kent, which sabotaged the "super" teaching they were developing kid Clark).. i hope would have a different tone, maybe even some reasonable retcon to help us see why Superman is a hero.
Okay, that certainly counts as a fresh take on the mythos. And it's a character that could coexist with Cavill's version, especially with the multiverse idea catching on everywhere lately.
Funny that the multiverse was originated by comics DC, but now the DC FU will be the follower in it (as far as the FU...yes, i know about the Arrowverse)
Why does DC keep hiring directors who refuse to work with one another on making a cohesive whole as opposed to "My way or the Highway" types who want every self-contained?
That's the strategy they went with after the Snyderverse's bad reception.
I thought, even before Snyderverse, that the DC FU was supposed to be "director led", as opposed to the MCU which has Kevin Feige making sure things are connected. How early had Patty Jenkins been chosen as the WW director? Before or well after B V S?
Now i absolutely do NOT think we needed a story thread like the Infinity Gauntlet to connect everything...we just needed a sense that each movie was in the same universe (which Shazam kinda did). I am fine with the tonal differences between WW, Aquaman and Shazam -- they all felt right for the character. But Snyder's stuff just felt off....
With the new Coates movie I am open to it... it could fit in, the same way Into The Spiderverse the the MCU SPiderman can fit together. But the disjointedness of the DC FU as well as the non Arrowverse shows, all happpening at the same time, just feels like a mess that dilues the audience -- and the excitement.
I remember when The FLash TV show (2nd) was in the works... where each piece of news made us all excited, and the introduction of characters helped propel the show to #1.
we just don't see it here.
The other thing in our MCu vs. DC FU debates is that with the MCU actors.. OFF screen, they seem genuinely ecited about their films as well as EACH OTHER . I just don't get any sense of that with the DC FU. ANd i think that just hurts the future of the movies.
