How was it a risky film? I'm still waiting for the explanation. Just because critics and people didn't like it doesn't mean it was a risky film. It just means people didn't like it. Just because it had a dark tone, doesn't make it risky. TDK was a dark film that was done right. Deadpool was more of a riskier film than this and critics plus the general audience loved it. BvS wasn't a risky film. Unless you consider going down with Snyder on a sinking ship, a risky move.
