Zaslav is disliked because he doesn't do SJW woke culture. The Batgirl move is why he is infamous. The dude wants to make money and identifies what will. He isn't going to pander to propaganda if there's no sense in it.
I like people who know what they want unlike the old guys. I doubt he cares whether they like him he just wants to make money.
To make money, you need to release products. Zaslav don cancel projects but he never announce any new ones. Hard to have faith in someone who destroys without building

Dude, people raving about Batgirl being cancelled don't know why or what was considered. I bet if someone asked us now if we would mind if GL or catwoman was cancelled instead of released, they would have been up for it.

I still don't get the reason why people just hate Snyder ... His works are amazing, especially in the DCEU.
Man of steel
BVS
Justice league.

Remember that the Justice league movie that bombed was the first one and that was because Joss Whedon came and corrupted his work.
When the "Snyder cut" was released 4 years later it became a success , despite the fact that it was over 4 hours long.
Many fans (me included) are hoping that DC gives him the reins back so that he can complete his "Knightmare" storyline.

His works has not been anything close to amazing in the old DCEU if we are being honest with ourselves. Keep the sentiment of being a DC fan aside and you'd see his DC movies were problematic.
We as fans might love his films but general audience which matters most and responsible for franchises success have issues with his films.

I like Zack Snyder's movies; heck I love 300 and Watchmen. MOS was good, ZSJL was really good (I'm not judging it by Whedon's utter crap) but BVS ain't a good movie. It's not as bad as most people make it seem but it ain't great either. It's just there. But it's action scenes are quite good.

Storywise Zack lacks the qualities to make an engaging film franchise. His films are good when looking at it individually, but taking it as a whole, there are major cracks with his style of storytelling.

There are many decisions Snyder took that are serious bottlenecks to building out a franchise like DC.
Take his decision to kill off Dick Grayson — someone that would have been a major character and expansion to Batman's lore. We haven't even seen the character once!
People have issues with his Superman characterization. Also, Clark watching on while his dad was killed in MOS is another talking point asides from Superman being moody.

Killing Superman in the second movie we just saw him isn't a wise move whether you're resurrecting him in the future or not. The symbolism of his death he was trying to portray had no impact or depth to the viewer as we are yet to even familiarise and care about this Supes. Heck that movie is the reason we have the prime "Martha meme". That movie seriously underperformed in the box office when you take into account that it was the first time ever audiences are seeing Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman on screen together.

These are things one should consider when building a franchise especially one that already has source material lying in ground to explore. If you don't follow it or show little regard to the lore, you'd run into problems. See how Amazon's LOTR adaptation is having issues with fans, see GOT's last season, The Witcher lost Cavill for not being faithful to the source material.

Heck even Henry Cavill that just returned to DCU has been saying he looks forward to playing a "hopeful" Superman for the past two weeks. What does that tell you. Zack hasn't done anything in comic book franchise to hint you of that "hopefulness" you're looking for.
The problem with Zack he overthinks things and ruin something that should have flown naturally.

All these and we're not even taking into consideration about his cult fandom that attacks other creatives and claims other directors wins as his.

If he's eventually called back in the future (which I doubt WB will do) I don't have much issues with him doing a few films. I even fancy him directing the Black Adam movie even tho I'm yet to watch it.
But for heading a franchise? Fvvk no.

Honestly, to me it's best we move on from Snyder. Bringing him back is simply inviting all the issues and the problems of the past regime when we're hoping to get a clean slate.

After harassing James Gunn and trending #ReleaseAyerCut on the day TSS released in theaters back in 2021, they now turn around to beg James Gunn, the new head of DC, to release Ayer Cut.

How the tables have turned.

Things I love to see. Their tears has been thrilling to see.
The one I find funny is Geralt /Itssan7 their major leader, has done a 360°. He's now a full supporter of all things DC. Although, dude did that before Superman announcement and James Gunn confirmation.

The one I find funny these days these w@nkers are now claiming Aquaman is part of the Snyderverse. Lmfao.... Aquaman that has no similarity with anything Snyderverse and even did a 360° change on what Snyder established in the ZSJL movie with Atlanteans speaking or communicating like dolphins underwater. grin

Not really.
I don't think he was referring to Snyder fans but the subsection of political correct people that came for him after his online jokes and sarcasm was twisted then.

I advise you start warming up to him. Dude is a brilliant creative and knows when to give others their due.

I know you might not like his style judging by his MCU roots and comedy application. But the guy's a top creative loved by all both producers and actors, even top executives. Man was said to have been Feige's successor over at Marvel. He actually worked closely with Feige and rumor is he was a close second on command before his unfortunate incident that led to his initial sacking over at Disney.

Man was offered Justice League reboot by WB earlier on but he rejected the project and instead chose to work with obscure characters. That to me speaks volumes on his personality.
