When you're Zack Snyder and you're directing one of the most highly-anticipated comic-book films in recent memory, you're going to have to deal with some flack.

Whether it's online forums, film journalists who have hated his output (guilty) or even radio talk-show hosts, he's bound to get stick from everywhere. Well, one day, Zack Snyder decided enough was enough.

The director, who's currently filming Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice in Detroit, called into the local radio talk-show and piped up with a few words to defend both his film and the possible inclusion of other comic-book hero, Aquaman.

It's long been rumoured that the fishy superhero will be making an appearance alongside Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman, all leading up to the eventual Justice League movie in 2016.

Here's what Zack Snyder had to say about Aquaman and his upcoming film.
