I think of this blog as a sort of monument built out in the wilderness of the Internet, in the hinterlands, for fans of the Snyderverse to stumble onto. Sadly, it seems pretty clear by now that we’re not going to get completion of Zack’s five film saga. Anyway, I do still intend to write articles for both Watchmen and ZSJL. For Watchmen I’ve toyed with the idea of looking for Jungian symbolism that most likely arises innocently, i.e., per the theory it would from the collective unconscious to begin with. But whenever I sit down to write it I’m not really feeling it. So I’ll have to watch it yet again at some point to see what else floats up for me to say about it. With ZSJL I’ll probably write about it being an elegy, or a least that’s how I experience it. And maybe I’ll write a piece as well about the interesting (to me) concept that symbolic themes can arise unconsciously in a film that presumably were never consciously intended by the director or writers. And that’ll be it, most likely. The monument will then be complete.
