What? BvS was trash and nothing like Nolan's films. Suicide Squad was basically a crappy Guardians of the Galaxy.

They are nothing like the Nolan trilogy besides being grounded. The problem with Snyder is he tries way to hard to be loud and subtle at the same time. The Jesus imagery and product placement hits you right between the eyes! His movies also feel like storyboards pieced together. Cool ideas that should have been reworked a bit for actual filming.

I was going your route, but the article doesn't talk about it in this regard. It's just saying WB needs to trust their directors and let them produce a film in a timely manner instead of rushing them, and then backtracking. They also need to stop producers and head WB people from stepping in and making cuts, it's not their job. Both BvS and Suicide Squad saw cuts made by the studio that hurt the end result, clearly.

I really liked Suicide Squad too! Not a game changer but a fun movie nonetheless. BvS is actually growing on me, the Ultimate cut is pieced together much better than the shitty theatrical cut. Why they would release it to theaters the way they did is mind boggling! Pretty sure they cut Suicide Squad up pretty good too! :/

I thought both were good, but you can clearly see where someone chopped them up. Suicide Squad especially has poor pacing because someone went in with a knife and made odd cuts, totally ruining some jokes and sequences. The studio should have just trust the talent to make a good movie. If they didn't, then find a new team for the next film.

It's the difference between Marvel, DC, Sony, and Fox. Marvel lets their talent do their job, they get it approved in script form, then let them just do their job. You don't see directors complaining that Marvel makes too many cuts, because they don't intrude. Yet turn your head to Sony, Fox, DC/WB and it's a constant story. "They cut my film" "They changed this" "They did this" Even that Sony deal with Marvel, what did it include? That Sony steps back and lets the Marvel team handle it.... Why won't these studio execs learn that making the movie isn't their job.....

Yeah I agree, don't get me wrong I clearly enjoyed Suicide Squad. I thought it was really good, I just wish I got to see the original cut before the execs went in. I bet we both would really enjoy that even more.
