craft (2)

craft (craft): Watchmen → Zack Snyder. Snyder's Watchmen was his favorite of his superhero efforts, helped by being faithful to a single finite graphic novel.
“that's my favorite Zack Snyder superhero endeavor for sure.”
The Big Picture · The Past, Present, and Future of Superhero Movies | The Big Picture (Ep. 35) · 0:06:00 · Sean Fennessey (0.50 sure it was them)
craft (craft): Zack Snyder → Justice League. Snyder's approach to a speedster: lightning effects and cranked-up slow-mo.
“Snyder does his super cranked up thing.”

industry (1)

industry (industry): Zack Snyder → Justice League. Fennessey ties the stormy shared look of earlier DC films to Zack Snyder, which DC is now abandoning.

people (1)

people (people): Zack Snyder → James Gunn. Snyder's Dawn of the Dead is his best movie in retrospect, largely thanks to Gunn's script.
“Which is Zack Snyder's best movie, you realize in retrospect, largely because of how good the gun script is.”

verdict (1)

verdict (verdict): Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice → Zack Snyder. BvS underperformed because Snyder's vision is specific and does not cross over to kids.
“BVS does not make a $1000000000, which it should objectively.”
