Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
Zack Snyder's Justice League
Army of the Dead

Both are in the blockbuster area and did DC films, that’s why I compared them.

 

[The Good The Bad The HBK]

Insidious trilogy Conjuring 1&2 Saw > Dawn of the dead and 300

 

[Ares Black]

Both hacks, but Snyder is the bigger hack, so Wan wins by default.

I think Wan has actually a solid directing style and does fine genre films. Wouldn’t call him an hack tbh.

Just decent-good director

Saw was ok. Aquaman was terrible. I haven't seen any of his other work.

I mostly just jumped at the opportunity to call Zack Snyder a hack and Wan was collateral damage.

fair enough

It fits the criteria for snyder. Seem people here aren’t familiar with Wan though.

Snyder has turned into the most self fellating director out there, literally can’t watch his movies. I was pumped for army of the dead and I made it 15 minutes in.

Wan just due to saw and death sentence

Snyder just because he made two movies I love, DOTD remake and watchmen. Most of the rest of his catalog sucks imo, but those two are still enough for me.

 

[Mike]

Jesus christ tho man of steel and BVS have to be two of the worst comic movies of the last decade. Justice leage isn't good either.

You have seen Dead Silence too?

You have seen Dead Silence too?

No never heard of it

 

[I Fusion I]

No never heard of it

its from the same director, give it a watch.

 

[MyFavSport]

Wan.

 

[Bacco]

The one with 300 and Watchmen

 

[BenderIsGreat]

I like saw, insidious and dead silence. But I prefer horror movies. Not into DC films. So Wan.

 

[BB in Crazy!!!!]

Wan

I like both their good movies. But Snyder’s bad was worse than Wan’s bad.

 

[ProPROpro]

Saw + Conjuring + Aquaman = Win

I was going to say self indulgent.. but self fellating works for me!!

Snyder is great at directing action. Wan I think, is more well rounded and is an overall better storyteller.
