Even a skilled writer has to walk a very fine line when it comes to using sexual violence in a story, and Snyder is not skilled writer. He should steer clear of that whole area And that’s not even getting to the horrible, horrible timing of it making it even worse It's also just not a great look that the only two works Snyder has done that aren't adaptations of someone else's work have that as major plot points. Mind you, had the relationship between Snyder and Warner Bros not completely soured in the fallout from Justice League, his next project for them was allegedly going to be The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand... which features the protagonist forcing himself on the designated love interest. Just very unfortunate implications. He also said he wanted Batman to get raped in prison... and don't forget one of the characters in the Watchmen is a rapist... That Zack tried to make look more like a badass despite that fact...

You pretty much get his "edgy and cool" mindset just from the expression on his face in this gif: Dude's just a big kid who's been smashing action figures together for the last 20 years and getting paid millions of dollars for it.

Snyder is coming off as a real creep Only thing I know about ZS and Catwoman was him chiming in about the nontroversy surrounding Bruce going downtown on Selina in the Harley Quinn cartoon (DC Editorial decided that "heroes don't do that"). He was firmly on the pro-munch side of the debate.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, sometimes Zack Snyder really comes off like he's a teenage edgelord whose storytelling style came from having read nothing but comics written by Rob Liefeld and Frank Miller while he was growing up and being influenced by the absolute worst parts of them.

This would be funny if he wasn’t gleefully telling SUPERMAN how he should go about his murdering. Being a Superman thing makes it HILARIOUS.

Being a Superman thing knowing Henry Cavill signed on with the expectation of playing a "world of cardboard" Superman only to have this dudebro director who looks like he should be talking like Michelangelo from TMNT '87 tell him Superman will be personally responsible for flattening half of Metropolis, causing unimaginable casualties, is almost tragic.

Poor Cavill keeps bouncing around to different geek roles and getting piss poor creative directions from each. Hoping him being Executive Director for Warhammer 40K gives him enough clout for it to be decent.

I will be fair and say the rape of the Amazons by Heracles was there well before Zack got there.
That's not to say he should have included it or anything, just that he didn't come up w it.

It was also written at a time when people didn't care at all about treating sexual assault with the gravity and care it actually requires. Zack on the other hand has no excuse.
