Also, "Film Best Moments Recap?" Buddy, the only channel that I let get away with sorta-clickbaity titles is Splattercat and that's because he covers a ton of indie games.
It's not that Snyder doesn't have a creative bone in his body. It's that he doesn't understand anything.
You know that tired cliche where, at an end of a fight scene, a character draws a gun on the protagonist, there's a tense heartbeat, he shoots, and the camera cuts to reveal that he shot a goon that had risen behind the protanist's back?
In Revel Moon, you see the goon from the time he picks up the gun all the way to standing up, aiming at the protagonist's back, getinng shot and fallinh down.
It's like Snyder has a bone to pick with the cliche, but not because it's boring and overdone - he thinks he can do it better.
Plus, it's not the only scene that gives the impression that Snyder doesn't understand that incidental detail can happen off screen.

@daavpuke is right. Snyder works entirely like ChatGPT - never understands why he puts a thing in the movie, only that he does.
Also, the opening on half an hour of the movie looks like it was AI generated in every shot, which is a weird thing to achieve with live action. It's even worse with the evil-guy troops, since their armor is detailed in that OpenAI way where there's no reason for detail.
I can't wait for a two-hour RLM ep about it.
