Snyderkin, we're back. We're so back.

Zack Snyder pitched his idea for a Star Wars sequel and it was shot down by Disney. So Netflix optioned it and produced it. Oh, and you know how the bad guys of Star Wars were fashioned after Nazis? Well the bad guys of Rebel Moon are fashioned after Soviets.

Also Netflix poured millions into this and has already started a spin-off for the Anthony Hopkins C3PO, directed by Del Toro.

Snyder is like the film version of pre-made pancake batter. His works contain no deeper meaning or other hard to reproduce aspects like good characterisation or dialogue. While most artists are hard to rip-off convincingly, anyone could make a Snyder-type script. Make sure there's violence, "I'm 14 and this is deep" dialogue, weird fascistic posturing, boobs. Slap on "realistic" CGI and a desaturation filter. Congratulations, you have made a Snyder movie.

I genuinely think that's why he's pushed so hard. Besides the cost of CGI, having such an empty style means you could reproduce it any time with little effort.

Other artists I can think of that fit this description are Tim Burton and Steven Moffat. I know they've made great art before but recently it's just been misses.

Sucker Punch was the epitome of Snyder's bullshit. I can't believe a Hollywood studio actually funded that.

This might sound like a nitpick, but Moffat isn't a director, he's only ever written and produced stuff.

Thanks for pointing that out, I've edited the comment.

Moffat is a terrible showrunner, but makes brilliant one-episode stories
