RE: DC Versus Marvel: The Difference in Storytelling
DC really needs better writers and less studio interference. Writers are the backbone of any movie and if they fail to capture the essence of the characters then the whole movie collapses. With regards to studio interference, another reason why Marvel is on top of the game is that Kevin Feige has full creative control meaning he can run everything in the studio without hesitation or taking someone's permission. In WB studios, Zack doesn't have that kinda control and when it came to the editing the studio just interfered a lot with the movie.
That's an excellent point! They don't seem to focus so much on the story and writing in comparison to editing and graphics.
Re-Feige, I think that's the best thing they have done. They let him take some "risky" chances such as hiring Taika for Ragnarok..etc.
In DC on the other hand, it seems like there is even a Snyder's cut (when you have the director shooting a version they think is best and a separate one where the studio think is best) you know there is no synergy and very little room to operate.
I actually once wrote about that Zak intereference once :P https://steemit.com/blog/@the-alien/zack-snyder-sucks-an-alternative-review-of-justice-league
But now in retrospect, I think that the Ben Affleck script was a much better story. Too bad it didn't to production.
Thanks for the great conversation.
Glad to have one!
