But a movie isn't a comic. And a comic isn't a movie. They're different mediums with different focuses. And that's actually always been one of my issues with Snyder, it feels like he tries to build a story around cool images vs. using cool images to augment the story, and his successes almost solely exist when he had a pre-determined framework to work off of. There is absolutely nothing preventing him from doing both, and his focus on visuals over story just ends up leaving moments that should feel epic feeling hollow of clunky because no one did the work to build to those moments.

People judged a movie based off it being...a movie. I don't think you can fault people for that. If you have to explain to people that it's not 'actually' a movie it's a graphic novel on screen, I don't know, I feel like you've failed as a storyteller in that scenario.
