He’s also got the Martin Scorsese World Cinema Project that champions international films, and there have been stories from directors like Edgar Wright where Marty would reach out and compliment their films. So it’s not just one letter.

I’m gonna have to challenge this abit, because one of my issues with tent-pole comic book movies is the general lack of diversity there has been. (Although it has improved in recent years.)

...He’s not opposed to new cinema? He sent Bong Joon Ho a letter praising Parasite after it’s Oscar win and asked him not to rest too long because he looking forward to seeing what Bong made next.

It kinda is though? Just look at the push back from all the filmmakers when Warner Bros announced that all their films would be doing the simultaneous release on HBO Max. I’d be shocked if you found a filmmaker who didn’t want their film to be shown in theaters.

The thing is- the Army of the Dead was a lot less of a deus ex machina in the books. They never came to Pelennor Fields, and their main involvement was helping to strike terror into the Corsair’s and providing Aragorn with an alternative path to Minas Tirith and an oppurutnity to recruit the men of Southern Gondor to…

She talked about the Connery thing at the AFI tribute awards to Connery and said that she had always had a crush on him so she felt no issue playing his love interest.

Not exactly: Smith had two specials that aired the same year as series 7b. (One was the 50th and one was the Christmas special/ his farewell.)

Man of Steel underperformed against the studio expectations. (Which it should be clarified were fairly unreasonable.)

The official quote was just that the investigation had completed and that remedial action had been taken. It was deliberately vague enough that we can’t really say the investigation found the allegations credible. (We can infer that, but it’s still very vague about how accurate the allegations were.)

I might not be getting all the details correct, but it went along the lines of this:

...See reading the interview and the quote I think that’s exactly what he’s musing about: a hypothetical dark Batman movie he would make.

It feels kinda appropriate that only a couple of days ago there was an article about Patty Jenkins saying that the characters in theatrical cut were almost unrecognizable...and today we find out that Batman is gonna say fuck in the Synder cut.

So Zack Snyder posting a photo implying that he had a completed directors cut is just semantics?
And while plenty of people knew that the finished Snyder cut did not exist, there was a sizeable chunk of the #releasethesnydercut group that claimed the film was finished.

I feel you’re misrepresenting his quotes about Batman as well slightly.

That’s not true about Zack Snyder. Among other posts he did on vero during the two years following the Theatrical Cut of the film was post this photo of film canisters labelled ‘ZS JL: Directors Cut’ with the words ‘Is it Real? Does It Exist? Of Course It Does.’ Super imposed over the top of it.

...Which wouldn’t really be in keeping with the ‘Accountability > Entertainment' line hes been pushing.

James Masters has also talked about how much he loved working with Whedon and respected him as a creator. In that same anecdote where he talks about Whedon being frustrated about the situation with Spike, Masters said Whedon handled that situation better than Masters would’ve personally handled it.

So in other words there wasn’t a finished Snyder cut? If your movie is missing all the effects shots, needs sound editing and additional footage needs to be shot it isn’t a finished cut of the film.

(Because the release the Snyder cut movement claimed that Snyder had a cut of the film that needed to be released- not…

It’s been reported that it sold over 100 million copies before the release of Peter Jackson’s films (with estimates that sales topped 150 million after the films came out.)

I can believe that, hes also talked about having surgery semi recently, so it's very likely that this was causing a huge strain on his physical and mental health.
