Because he not only does not understand how to tell an actual story, but he doesn't get the characters he's adapting. The only thing he knows how to do competently is manipulate CGI in his favor.

Pic related.

You damn well know you only like his previous movies because of the fight scenes, nothing more.

The problem is that they shouldn't have place it in WWI at all. And now they can't go back after the BvS backlash.

Remember that a lot of people are saying Wonder Woman is the best part because she "injects fun" to it. Even Peter David said that.

But now her solo movie will be more depressing than MoS and BvS combined. People won't be happy about that.

Suicide Squad was going to be the most fun movie of the DCEU, and even then the execs are already meddling with it.

They will definitely mess with WW.

Eh, WW1 gets few movies as it is. If they kept it WW2 it would get more Cap 1 comparisons.

You don't get it. There's no reason to be WW1 or WW2.

>>81600872

Snyder is an odd case. He has great (if dark) aesthetics and gets solid performances from his actors, but he struggles on story construction.
>>
>>81600872
Because he wants them to be "important" I bet people would love JL if it were more like 300 and a lot less like Warchmen

I love how you MCU drones just literally cant grasp DC. DC comics are not "fun" by and large. Why the fuck would the movies be? To appeal to casual faggots? No thank you. Id rather get movies accurate to DC's normal tone for only 1 phase than get multiple phases of them trying to ape Marvel.

Because he's not. None of his movies are good they are just visually striking.

Its not about that you stupid fuck. DC properties have always been dark and serious by and large. If you don't like that you shouldn't go see a DC movie. They shouldn't make the movies not fit with the normal tone of DC simply because faggots like you are use to "fun."

No I mean all of them. Outside of like Booster and Blue Beetle most DC properties have dealed with serious issues and the heroes always took themselves seriously. Sorry you created an idea in your head of how these heroes acted based off of cartoons and movies.

He is an objectivist. That means a character like Superman, a being who has immense power but uses it selflessly to help others, is at odds with his worldview.

Superman goes against the whole Ayn Rand notion of humanity.

Whereas Donner's movie's wholeheartedly celebrated Superman's altruism, Snyder's scenes of Supes saving people are joyless.
>>
>>81603124
Yeah man him smiling when he rescued that mexican girl sure was joyless.

>>
>>81601661
>>81600808
>>81600797
Yeah. Why on Earth would you set Wonder Woman in WWI? Someone at Warners been watching Downton Abbey? WW, and the superhero genre itself, comes from WWII. And side from dour dramas like Downton Abbey or maybe War Horse, when the fuck has World War I ever been popular in film and tv? No war is sunshine and lollipops, but WWI was a particularly nasty time period as technology of industrialized weaponry far outpaced old tactics. Those battlefields were fucking brutal meat ginders. It is fucking depressing. I honestly don't know how to film an action movie in such an enviroment.

There was that one James Franco movie that was about WWI dogfights. I saw it and kinda liked it, but it bombed at the box office.

Americans really don't give a shit about WWI and in Europe it is just a source of somber remorse.

Who the fuck thought that was a place for Wonder Woman?

Sufferage is a bullshit excuse too. WWII had plenty of feminist elements even post-sufferage.

Wonder Woman was the product of feminism -after- sufferage. Feminism and the fight for women's rights didn't end when they got the vote.

>>81603277

Not people, liberal critics. They can't say anything bad about a female hero so they trashed the movie but complimented her.

Who gives a shit, it's not like anybody's gonna watch a WW movie except Tumblr feminists. You know it's gonna pander to them hard enough to give even a moderate liberal a seizure.

Even that suffragette movie suffered backlash because "only white wymyn".
>>
>>81603277
This. WW didn't have the shit tons of baggage and angst Superman had. Batman of course should have it, but it was over the top and Superman was not contrasting. So the blank slate of movie WW just being a hero was a breathe of fresh air.
>>
Wonder Woman movie should do the following:
1. Embrace the fantastical aspect of the character and her origins.
2. It should have feminist undertones; it's about an Amazonian Goddess after all. But it should not be ham-fisted about it and present it in an intelligent way.
3. Allow WW to be flawed and not turn her into a Mary Sue.

>>81602875
I never got where you casuals got this sense of entitlement. Why exactly should movies about characters comic book readers have been supporting for decades appeal to you instead? If you answer money that isn't a legitimate reason. Obviously they want to make money but you don't do so by shitting on your established fan base in hopes of getting new fans.

Because movies are the broader media that makes normies get into comics. You don't make movies for a tiny demographic that already reads comics and ignore the vast majority.

That is wrong on so many levels. Hell, even more comedic DC books like 80s JLI took themselves seriously. You can be serious about heroes and not have the tone of a fucking funeral dirge like Snyder's shit.

Morrison's JLA was very serious but also very hopeful and fun and downright fucking crazy at points.

Even Kingdom Come and Dark Knight Returns, which were set in horrible dark apocalyptic futures to mirror the horrors of current society, had levity and comedy and fun tones to them.

I like how he phrased it as if they have a choice. As if they weren't really trying before, but now they're putting all this talent behind it so it has to be good! Warner's moviemaking framework for DC movies is broken in a way that is not reversible in the foreseeable future. They're in the process of destroying Suicide Squad as we speak. They've put the woman who has only made one wide-release movie about a prostitute serial killer and failed to make a Thor movie in charge of Wonder Woman, and given her a supermodel-turned-fast-and-furious-actress as a lead. It's a trainwreck in slow motion, and no one involved has the means to stop it.

They'd be disappointed in our thin skin, poor bantz, weak tactics and lack of pederasty. And they'd be right to feel that way. Maybe Argonians would cut us some slack for capeshit because of how buff everyone is in that stuff, but the other city-states would shit on us hard.

Who cares about the Greeks? They were literal degenerate faggots that fucked animals, men and little boys.

>>81600872
Because you think the role of a director is "make things look good" or "have cool fights". It's not. The director's job is to tell a story. Snyder's a music video director. Tha'ts his training. And here's the thing: music videos don't have to make sense. They just have to have good music and cool looking often overly literal scenes.
>>
>>81604905
>Brooding and depressive themes
Because the heroes lacked hope. Supes death inspired them to be hopeful
>Dark cinematography
You mean in a movie about Batman and a conflicted Superman? Wondering fucking why.
>excessive violence
>horror imagery
Hey theres this character called Batman maybe you have heard of him? Hes scary and aggressive and fucks people up.
>Movie ends with 2 funerals
See above statements. Supes is inspiring them to become the heroes we know. Im sorry this wasnt a Marvel movie where everything is contained in one movie and they are loosely tied together. In these movies there are gonna be things that once you see the others will make more sense. That is how they are set up.
>>
>>81605060
>Supes death inspired them to be hopeful
You realize that in effect, Snyder has made Superman into Agent Coulson?
>>
>>81605060
So you go "how is it dark explain how"
and then go "IT'S GOOD THAT IT'S DARK".
So you didn't fucking need it explained in the first place.
>>
>>81604909
And that describes 90% of the board's threads. But what do we have to show for it? What have we produced? Handy Jays and a riff on Jojo's that's slightly more dignified than Diesel? We don't have anything on par with what the ancient Greeks came up with, so they outclass us, it's as simple as that.
>>
>>81605098
Breh idk if youve only seen cape movies but a member of the team dying to inspire people is one of the oldest tropes in existence.
>>
>>81604909
And they still had a better grasp of critical thinking then you've managed all these years later. If that's not literal and I mean literal degeneracy I don't know what is.
>>
>>81605143
I wanted to see what you meant and make sure it wasn't stupid buzz words and I agree with you on all fronts but there are reasons for that. Did you not know Batman was suppose to be scary? Did you not understand this movie was setting them up to become the heroes we know?

I just don't get why these concepts are so hard for people to understand. I don't get why people don't understand character growth and they wanted instant satisfaction.
>>
>>81605155
I never said it wasn't a tired old cliche. I just think it's fucked up that SUPERMAN has the role of a red shirt now., The cornerstone of the entire universe and he's about as useful to the narrative as an OC Do Not Steel because the director couldn't come up with a way for him to be inspiring otherwise.
>>

I'm not even >>81604905
I just think that tactic of "I'm gonna pretend like this hasn;t been covered five thousand times and play dumb" thing is played out.
>>
>>81605060
The funeral scenes are very little inspiring. If you just listen to their lines that may be true, but looking at it it's just depressive again.

Besides, only Batman is inspired with hope. Wonder Woman is still cynical. She still doesn't believe in standing together.
>>
>>81605296
But it hasnt been covered 5,000 times in movies. This is the 1st time and you have to address it as such. Being mad they are setting uo reasons for why these characters become the league we know and love doesn't make sense man.
>>
>>81605286
So's not needing drama. So's being Clark Kent. So's telling people that he's not a god to be woshipped.

Clark has only died once. He does other stuff way more that Snyder saw fit to leave out.
>>
>>81605365
So you wanted more scenes of him being Clark and an explicit scene where he says I'm not a god?
>>
>>81605355
>But it hasnt been covered 5,000 times in movies.
I'm not talking about the movies you dumbass. I'm talking about the discussions. When people say "the movie is dark" you're being intentionally obtrusive if you claim you don't know what they're talking about by now.

For a bunch of stupid cunts that claim to be so much smarter and savvy than everyone else you shouldn't need simple concepts spoonfed to you.
>>
>>81605365

>Clark has only died once.

That's a lie. Clark faked died several times.
>>
>>81605412
Ultimately what I wanted was an actual contrasting tone and ideological clash, and Superman is too similar to Batman in this for that to have been rendered effectively.
>>
>>81605421
You are literally the only person who elaborated at all why you felt it was dark and I felt I addressed most of your issues.

Let me counter with a question, if in JL they act like their "normal" selves, will you then look back on BvS and understand why it was like that?
>>
>>81605477

>and Superman is too similar to Batman in this for that to have been rendered effectively.

That's a lie. Superman was a troubled hero full of anguish and guilt and Batman was psychopath full of guilt and anger.
>>
>>81602517
Bullshit, EO's Clark did not give a FUCK about saving people, Snyder's Clark absolutely does.
And he is plenty capable and is shown to learn from his mistakes hence him almost immediately taking Doomsday into space.
And Hyperion isn't incompetent.
>>
>>81604157
>It's a been two shit movies and he's fucking incompetent.
Saving 7-8 Billion people twice in MOS is not incompetence in ANY way shape or form just because the world engine killed people while he was not in Metropolis.
>>
>>81605499
Again, I haven't even done that. Because I'm not >>81604905
And frankly I don't even care that it's a dark movie. I think it has a great big laundry list of faults and its tone is way at the bottom. I just chimed in because again, acting like this is a new argument when it's been going on for three fucking years either means you're shitposting and trying to bait, or in such fingers in ears denial that it borders on actual retardation.

Yeah, It'll be because Snyder had been fired and WB is doing heavy damage control.

Because no, there is no logical progression to their "normal" selves from this. Especially not for Clark. Coming back from dhe dead wouldn't logically make him act more human, it would set him further apart and throw him even deeper down the god pit.

Kingdom Come had bits of humor and even had a funny little epilogue. DKR had satire and goofy bits. Plus Miller threw in fun superheroic scenes. I don't get why people insist DKR was a bleak grim story. Too many assholes kept saying that and made shitty 90s comics that were grim for grim sakes. I think Miller is taken aback when people keep saying how grim and dark that book is. I think it mainly comes from mainstream media and casualz who only thought of Adam West's Batman even though DC had been doing darker Batman for like a decade with the likes of O'Neil and Adams and Len Wein and others.

Some retard who always posts an image thats always filed 1.jpg is in every DC related thread talking about how amazing Snyder is.

1.jpg guy is now pretending he's multiple people even though its almost always a post talking about how great BvS and/or Snyder is.

Personally I think he's either a falseflagger like Xenos, or actually is Xenos with his trip off or an extremely delusional DCfriend. Pic related, he's been posting in this manner for months now.

This movie will be shit. Wonder Woman is literally 5000 years old in this continuity. The movie is taking place in WWI because they don't want to seem like a rip off of Captain America. Deborah Snyder is just as much a hack as her husband and they're the ones really calling the shots. Gadot can't act for shit and only stood out in BvS because everything else was that fucking bad.

But the idea that Wonder Woman movie can't be dark is stupid. Whether its the Azz run or Rucka, a lot of dark shit goes now. It's literally about a warrior culture.

There are different types of dark. Azz and Rucka were dark like Hellboy. Fun, crazy dark.

The movie will be just drama dark.

I fucking hope it'd be dark. Save the lighter stuff to Billy and Flash. It's WWI.

It's also great that it would be in WWI since it would fit perfectly with a naive Diana trying to help humanity during the a shit time in history. Bright colors, calvary, people thinking it's time to fight for their country only to find trenches, biological warfare, disease, etc. In BvS she said she turned away from man after it so her losing her hope would fit great. If i recall, there is suppose to be a portion of the film after the events of BvS, so juxtaposing her after WWI and her, presumably, helping Bats gather the other League members to fight again would be fanfuckingtastic.

Pretty sure the execs and the writers said the movie isn't dark. Snyder's JL Flash might be, but his solo isn't necessarily going to be.

Again, it's WWI because they wanted it. WWI MAY need to be dark (not necessarily, War Horse for instance is pretty light), but the movie didn't need to be in WWI in the first place.

Yeah, children are smart. Yeah, children can handle some things. That doesn't mean you go out and shove into their faces violence, gore, blood, fighting, swearing, sex, and death.
