Also, Simon, stop making these guys cry.

I'll judge this movie when I see it, and even though I don't like a single Zack Snyder movie so far I will at least watch this with an open mind.

You guys really come off like arrogant assholes sometimes.

Let me say: I have no stake in this, and I'm not a huge Snyder fan (I liked DoftheD, half-appreciated/half-loathed 300, and hated Watchmen). But part of what internet reporting has done to movies is attempt to de facto condemn or celebrate them long before anything has been seen or heard. And what's worse, the question you're asking is fundamentally misplaced.

After all, what is really being asked here? If you're wondering if Zack Snyder is making a personal fantasy film – which all obvious signs point to – how does that automatically condemn it? Every QT movie, every David Lynch movie, exists on some level as an extension of their id and imagination. And as for directorial over-indulgence, I would venture that you wait and see a bit. This isn't news – it's a fanboy hunch (yes, one can be a fanboy of Assayas as much as Cameron) hung on the barest of evidence.
