Zack Snyder Quotes
- [on presenting his male protagonists with superhuman physiques] I have always been influenced by the fantasy art of Frank Frazetta and obsessed with the potential of humanity’s physicality.
- [promoting Watchmen (2009) and before he was hired for Man of Steel (2013)] In this world, if Superman really existed, he’d grab all the world leaders together in a room and say, ‘Behave or I’ll kill you.’
- [For me] Superman is this adopted son, this immigrant story, this guy trying to find his place in the world. What’s his purpose, what is he supposed to do, how is he supposed to be?
- [on the Superman character] All the movies I’ve made, I’ve made with a slight bit of irony. Not even a slight bit. A fair amount. But the ironic part of [ ‘Man of Steel’] is that it’s not ironic. You know what I mean? No tongue in cheek, no winking at the camera, no apologies. It’s Superman. He deserves that. In my mind, we really had to act as if no films had been made. It’s like we just found this comic book lying on the ground under a bed, and we were like, This would be a cool movie.
- [on Man of Steel (2013)] I think it’s drawing on all mythology; comic book, religion, ancient, philosophical.
- It’s difficult to find a movie that feels true to itself. You feel the hand of Hollywood, the moviemaking by committee, on everything.
