Honestly, that was probably one of the really good moments in Justice League. I mean minus the speed skating Flash run... That said I mean Superman being able to see Flash running like that at least does fit the powerset, and this isn't full speed force Barry either. I mean more just as a cinematic moment, it's really effective. It's just too bad that, clearly, a lot of the rest of what was going on was bonkers and necessitated the rewrites/reshoots. I've long been of the mind that I don't particularly care if certain things are "out of character" in film adaptations, but the film itself just has to maintain some kind of internal consistency and vision. I was always willing to say "Well, maybe one version of Batman wouldn't do (x), but THIS version of Batman does, so whatever" on most things. Issue was, Snyder's attempt to tell the story of Batman v Superman was just completely off the wall in terms of it being overstuffed, overly complicated, erratic, and lacking the supposed depth that would have made some of that alright and understandable. The guy is a great visual filmmaker, but his narrative and storytelling concepts got stuck in a second year undergrad lit review course.

Snyder is just going full Russo.
He's saying shit to get attention because he was fired.

Snyder is just going full Russo. He's saying shit to get attention because he was fired. I can buy it though. This is the guy who had Jimmy Olsen shot in the face two minutes after introducing him.

So even if that was what he was going for WB/DC wouldn't let him.

I've long said the best place on a movie set for Snyder is not director, Writer or creative lead. It's cinematographer. He's not so good at the how or why of movies but he is very good at setting up shots

Maybe he'd be best in a co-directing situation where someone else is in charge of the narrative/storytelling. Or maybe we just shouldn't let David Goyer write shit anymore. (Bleh, he's writing Green Lantern Corps....)

His visual style just irritates me. Dark, desaturated colours and slow motion. Over and over again.

Zack Snyder: "What makes you think that Jimmy Olsen was the real Jimmy Olsen? Can't there be two photographers named Jimmy Olsen who work with Lois Lane of the Daily Planet?"

Snyder is only a few more posts away from being the big budget version of Eli Roth. I'll be happy if he spends the rest of his career talking about his projects rather than actually doing said projects.
