I have no dog in this fight. To me, Star Wars is simply a fantasy trilogy that was pretty technically proficient in its day, and The Empire Strikes Back was obviously the best of them. But they really only hold up for me because of the special effects and nostalgia.
Snyder fans hiding out in the goddamn philippines telling unfortunate victims "you just dont get it! The S standing for hope is suuuuuuuper deep! Of course he doesnt care that every building in metropolis is getting destroyed its what an intellectual would do!!!!!"
Average Snyder fanboy: "He's like Jesus! Do you get the deep symbolism?! He's like Jesus! Look, there's a scene where he's doing miracles, like Jesus! There's a scene where we see that painting of.. . Jesus stuff! It all comes back to Jesus!"
Average film viewer: "Umm ok, yeah. That's all there, definitely. So... What does Snyder do with that allegory?"
Snyderbro: "You just don't get it! You just don't even get how deep and smart it is. It's like... 'Subtext.'"
Average film viewer: "huh. What is it that you think the word 'subtext' means?"
now in all deference to Zack Snyder, the copious amounts of slow-motion he inserts into movies (apparently a cheat code for 'cool', ya know) does give the viewer ample time to think-- think about their life, and every regrettable decision they've ever made that lead to them watching a Zack Snyder movie.
If you use terms like “Snyderverse” and “GunnVerse,” no matter how intelligent you think you are, you still probably smell like a carcass floating in a septic tank.
It's all superman movies...Fuck me nobodies splitting the atom here.
When you have no social life, no job, and live in your parent's basement, who makes the best superman movies seems like a matter of life and death.
Revenge of the Sith is the best Star Wars movie ever. Fight me.
might as well go all in on being a contrarian and say it's that Ewok Christmas special.
I was going for pitchforks and rage. Instead I get a gentlemanly retort….
I’m not mad. I’m just disappointed…
Dad?

Obviously you’re completely wrong. But it’s ok. You probably don’t get a lot of information living in a basement.
Yeah, it's definitely the people who aren't big star wars fans who live in a basement.
Edit: Rethinking it, and the best Star Wars movie was actually Spaceballs.
The best Star wars videogame was that wireframe x-wing game from like 82. The sit-down version, naturally.
No.

Yeah this guy must've missed the 20 minute punch fest in Man of Steel that leveled every building in the city but caused no damage to Zod or Superman.
SO DEEP
I kinda like Snyder's work and I just happen to be on vacation in the Philippines right now. Feeling kinda called out over here.
I'd say that must be a comment under a "the critical drinker" video, but there is not enough misogyny in it
You clearly just don't just don't posess the intellgent mind enough to understand the the drinkerverse

Shades of https://halobrien.com/2023/05/13/foreshadowing/ but without the parody.

Christopher Nolan fans are gearing up like Dennis Reynolds to unleash
MY SUPERHERO MOVIE SMART YOUR SUPERHERO MOVIE DUMB
CINEMAAAAAA
I mean there is something to how the different directors cut the same movie, but this isn't it.
Snyder has made the worst superhero movies in history.
Kal El, NO!

That analogy made me gag a little lol. Funny, but a little gross 😂
So who was rebel moon designed for?
One specific fan in in Odessa Texas.
They're fucking superhero movies. Calm down.
Well that explains the extremely thought provoking third act smash-a-thon in Man of Steel.
And the entirely not self indulgent Justice League Snyder Cut
I was genuinely and blessedly unaware that anyone still liked this stuff.
Darn this is the first time since the younger generations spikibidi language that I do not understand half a sentence written in English
Unless you don't know who James Gunn or Zack Snyder are, what part of this is hard to understand?
Clearly you just don’t have the type of intelligent mind that sentence was designed to be read by.
Kids kids kids, as far as I’m concerned they’re BOTH potential idiots.
"Anyone can enjoy a Michael Bay explosion, but it takes a truly expansive intellect to contain its scope and beauty."
Because only a genius can grasp the significance of a space vagina…
I personally loved the DCEU for the most part, Snyder's films included, but even I'm not sure what that guy is rambling on about.
I can smell the cat piss from here.
I can't tell who's dick they're sucking harder, Zack or themselves.
