How did Snyder get this made in retrospect?

???????????

You need at least double your budget to break even due to how much money cinemas take out of tickets bought plus the marketing budget

Nolans Batman films were at its peak popularity and DC probably wanted more moody superhero movies.

he made 300

>It's 2025. I'm entering my house, drunk. Four minutes from now, I catch Chris Rock fucking my wife in our bedroom.
>It's 2017. My wife is confessing me she fucked one of our son's friends. She's crying and telling me it's my fault. For a second, I think about killing myself right there.
>It's 2022, I'm slapping Chris Rock in the face because she made fun of my wife's balding head. She looks disgusting, and for a second I imagine it's her I'm slapping.
>Three minutes.
>It's 2013, my daughter just wrote a letter to my wife's ex-lover telling him she wants him to be her dad instead of me. I cry in the bathroom all night.
>It's 2020. My son dyed his hair pink. Looks like my old friend from the hood Tommy that dyed his hair red, went full tranny and died of AIDS, screaming in pain and agony. I hope Jaden dies like that, sometimes. I wonder again, like I've been doing since his birth, if it's too late for me to go for cigars like my dad did.
>Two minutes.
>It's 2016, my wife is fucking another man in our room. Tomorrow, she will blame me for it.
>It's 2014. My son Jaden is presenting his new best friend Augustus to me and his mom. As I shake hands with this young boy, I know two years from now he will be using them to grab my wife's ass as he fucks her.
>One minute.
>It's 1990, I just starred in show called Prince of Bel-Air. It's getting some great rating and praise. I'm a big star now. For the first time in my life, I think things will get better.
>It's 2025. I'm beating Chris Rock to dead.

Serves him right for butchering the ending. The HBO Watchmen series was a way better adaptation of the story and it was essentially a sequel.
Coasting off the success of 300/Dawn of the Dead. However it was around this time people realized how much of a hack he was who was only getting carried by the source material he was using.

HBO watchmen was retarded. Snyder watchmen at least made some sense even with the ending
