More quotes by Zack Snyder
I'm interested in animation. I actually feel like I've learned so much about the process how to make an animated movie.
Zack Snyder
For whatever reason I was always obsessed with the potential of humanity's physicality. Especially since we grew up with such a non-physical philosophy.
Zack Snyder
There's very few dork movies made by dorks.
Zack Snyder
People always come up to me now and say, 'Watchmen' is the best superhero movie ever made.' I'm always saying 'That's super cool. That's nice of you to say.' But it happens now, more and more and more than it did when it first came out.
Zack Snyder
I heard one time that the Superman glyph is the second or third most recognizable symbol on Earth after the Christian cross.
Zack Snyder
The problem is, when you're making an animated movie, the studio has an illusion in their minds - and it's really not true - that because it's a drawing, it can be changed at any time.
Zack Snyder
The thing about 'Dark Knight' is its objective is to set Batman into your world, so that you can imagine the moral dilemmas he faces are exactly parallel to moral dilemmas that you would face in this world, today, if you were out there fighting crime dressed like a bat.
Zack Snyder
The eyes get lost in 3-D. With 3-D, your eyes are looking for the plane of focus, right? And the problem is, when you do quick cuts, your eyes can't find it.
Zack Snyder
I want to - we're working toward Justice League, and I really want to create the - part of the thing I really want to create is the possibility of a world where they could exist together.
Zack Snyder
I think I just have a natural operatic aesthetic. I can't help it.
Zack Snyder
I used to be a huge fan of Heavy Metal magazine growing up, and I was exposed to Cobalt there and fell in love with the character and the world. I've tried to track it down and pursue it myself to make a movie out of it. Also I felt like the thing that's cool about Cobalt is it does have a culty kind of underground quality to it that I really like.
Zack Snyder
Reality's its own thing. And I'm not really into reality that much. I'm into this cinematic stylized reality that can comment on reality. It's like the most beautiful parts of reality and the saddest parts, but it's none of this middle ground.
Zack Snyder
You know it has all the kind of fun stuff. It has the countermeasures - we always talk about the countermeasures because people are like, What the heck is countermeasures? You know if I shot a missile at it, flares would pop out of those holes and stop the missile from hitting it.
Zack Snyder
I believe that pop culture is just, like, so ready for 'Watchmen.' We tried so hard to ride that wave between satire and reality, and all the things that make you still care about the character, but you don't miss the commentary about them.
Zack Snyder
The truth is these characters [of Batman story] evolve, and there's a lot of hands in the supporting of these characters. It's great when everybody can know where everything came from. It's important for the legacy of them.
Zack Snyder
My mom always encouraged me, it was never weird. She'd look at 'Heavy Metal' and go 'Woo-hoo!'
Zack Snyder
I guess for me - in the TV commercial world I was known for shooting locations, beautiful landscapes and things like that - so, it's interesting.
Zack Snyder
You can't have a Superman that is battling cultural morality. You need a Superman that has built in sort of values.
Zack Snyder
I do like Superman as a character, and I have followed him throughout the years.
Zack Snyder
I think Sin City is a good example. Nobody would accuse Sin City of being historically inaccurate because it takes place in modern times.
