Well, I did call it. Zack Snyder has officially been chosen to helm the planned Christopher Nolan produced 'Superman reboot'. A darling of Warner Bros. given that he made a shedload of money for them with 300 and Watchmen, he was always the obvious choice. He has shown great respect to the source material with the two movies mentioned (ending to Watchmen aside), and had an eye for visual flair. At worst, its bound to much more visually arresting than Bryan Singer's 2006 Superman Returns. Release dates and news soon to follow. Now on to the next question. Who should play the Man of Steel..........
Oh and as an example os Snyder batshit crazy visual style, check out the trailer for his upcoming 'SUCKER PUNCH'. And then try and tell me what its all about! Until next time.........
All I know is it involves Nazis, dragons and giant Samurai demons wielding mini-guns. Oh, and it’s all in a woman’s head. Maybe it’s Snyder’s version of Pan’s Labyrinth?
ReplyDeleteIt's looking pretty cool, and has an original aesthetic. However, no matter how good it looks, it will have to go a long way to be mentioned in the same breath as the masterpiece that is Pan's Labyrinth :)
