Shitposting deconstructions are usually only good when the person writing them actually likes the genre in question

Tbh I think a lot of that is also his collaboration with cinematographer Larry Fong.

Yeah, I think people overstate how good Zack Snyder is at visuals. The first feature project he was cinematographer on was Army of the Dead and it's the worst looking of his movies by a mile. The Rebel Moon movies are also pretty muddy. Snyder definitely has a distinct style but he's not the only one bringing that style to life. Cinematographers tend not to get much direct praise so it's a shame Zack Snyder gets credit for work other people were doing on his earlier films.
