It seems that every other week, there is a story about someone from DC saying something about Marvel or Marvel saying something about DC. According to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice producer Deborah Snyder, Marvel’s method of making movies is the least of their concerns:
“I can see how people would want to make it this big, intense rivalry,” she told Empire Magazine. “Listen, they are so great. I loved Guardians of the Galaxy…our films are a bit more serious. They deal with things that are a little darker. Things that place them in our world.”
Director Zack Snyder basically agreed – stating that the movies are so different from one another and the sense of rivalry exists mainly in the fans’ heads:
“Right from the beginning it is different tonally from where those movies are,” Snyder said. “You know, DC is an ancient world in a lot of ways.”
He also mentioned the amount of respect that they had for Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy:
“We live in gratitude to those movies,” Snyder said. “Chris set a tone for the DC Universe, and separated us from Marvel in a great way. We are the legacy pf those movies.”
