I've seen many, many people shit on him for Batman v Superman. While I enjoyed it, I'm the first one to call it dumb, bloated, messy, pretentious, overly grim, poorly written and told, convoluted, illogical and nonsensical. Thing is, IMO most of the film's big problems can be traced back to the script, which Snyder had no part in (not anywhere that I've found, anyway). And I don't think it's entirely fair to lay the blame primarily on him. We don't know how much say he had in the matter, or how much the studio was forcing his hand. If there's anyone to blame for the film's clunkiness, it's IMO the writers (David S. Goyer and Chris Terrio respectively) for trying to cram too much into the movie, doing a shit job of it, and thereby causing s trickle down effect where every other element suffers from the script.
Thoughts on the matter?
