What is this, a crossover episode? Diminishing Returns are joined by How Didn't This Get Made? (who, confusingly, were going by "Development Hell" when this was recorded), the brand-new podcast from Sol Harris and Conor Murray that examines the history of movie projects that never got made.

Why? To examine one of the most infamous cases of a film that nearly never got made, but eventually fought its way out of Development Hell, only to finally make its way up and onto the big screen: Watchmen.

Is there a legitimate place for Zack Synder? Where does the film fit into the DC universe now that The Flash is going to go all Spider-Verse on us? Is the #SnyderCut better? All this and more in this week's edition of Diminishing Returns / How Didn't This Get Made?!
