I have faith in Snyder as a director, but as a writer, no ****ing way. Suckerpunch was one of those movies where people warned me it was bad, and it was still bad even with low expectations. That script was so weak. I think with a decent script, Snyder can do well with Man of Steel.
I know you guys will rip me for this, but I thought Batman Begins has pacing issues. I think if Nolan trimed 10 to 15 minutes from it, I would love it like everyone else. Dont get me wrong, it is still a good movie, but I have a hard time even saying it was one of Nolan's top 5 movies he's directed. My Nolan Films:
1-The Dark Knight
2-Inception
3-Memento
4-The Prestige
5-Batman Begins
6-Insomnia (the only stinker of the bunch)
I expect The Dark Knight Rises to fight it out with Inception for #2 on that list bumping BB out of the top 5. As always, IMHO.
I am sure alot of your Nolan lists differ greatly. The only thing I will fight for is Insomnia being his worst movie.
