    Zack Snyder's work is something that is very personal to me. His grand emotional spectacle and his deeply sincere storytelling is something that appeals to me greatly. I appreciate when superhero cinema manages to have a perfect balance of emotion and fun. This is true of all of my favorite comic book films. Snyder is incredible with balancing conflicting tones in large scale blockbuster cinema. There is a very fun and uplifting sense of hope and happiness in his films.…
