I think it's cool that they're getting the supernatural based characters out with stuff like Constantine, Lucifer, and Sandman.
 
I don't think being open-minded means you have to automatically be willing to defend every little rumor. Just because to me the urband legend rumor sounds pretty lame on paper, doesn't mean I'm not going to be open to the idea of it working in the movie and the movie being good overall -either in spite of it or because of it.

Marvin, you know me from the TMNT subforum so you know my goal isn't just to blindly hate on everything. The urban legend rumor just makes me raise an eyebrow, that's all, and I'm even putting too much stock into the rumor tbh.
When I start talking as to the agenda of the detractors on this issue with descriptions such as blind hate, then be sure to remind me not to. Till then I will go on, not asserting non of the above and simply addressing the points.

Can't say the same the other way however. People will think what they think I suppose. Have your concerns, share them even, just expect to hear the opposing opinion and or the other side ever now and then is all.

We all have our concerns I guess, me included.
 
There goes my dream of seeing a cbm directed by David Fincher. :BA

Which property were you hoping to see him do?
I always wanted a batman film made(written) but the Seven team.

Given the bulk of cbm made in the last 5 or so years, I can't see him being all too excited with the 'genre'.

Batman.

He just called cbms 'dull' in an interview. I can't blame him for thinking that way...they all follow a simple formula for the most part.
 
As do most films. I think it's rather closed minded to call them dull, it's up to the director/storyteller to make them interesting.
 
Can't that be his motivation for making a different one then? One that isn't dull.

Yessir! Glad DCE is taking advantage of these opportunities with their supernatural stable of characters who are complex and interesting.

Not a fan of directors who talk down to CBM films like Tarantino and Fincher.

Instead of having the attitude of being above the genre....than how about they have the balls to step up to the plate and do something about the genre and see if they can produce something better than what has been done so far?

I have no problem with them not liking the genre. QT and Fincher don't have to make a cbm. It's not about lacking balls or anything like that, they just aren't fans, I'm fine with it....disappointed but fine.

Nah...I think they don't have the balls to try and produce a CBM film. :BA

Fincher is entitled to his opinions about cbms, but considering the fact that there's a wide variety of themes available in comics books /GN's it's rather narrow-minded approach that he is taking.

Interestingly, many people call Nolan as "pretentious" even when Nolan worked with the comic book source material and helped launch Superman but same people call directors like Fincher and Cronenberg great even when they don't think highly about comic books.

All three of them are great. :BA

Fincher directing 100 Bullets would be amazing.

But yeah I wouldn't want to see him working on a superhero movie.

Yup. Just like I am entitled to my opinion!

Yeah, but that doesn't mean that Fincher and Cronenberg's opinions about cbm's are more valid.

Absoultely! But at the same time, I won't give them slack for not liking them...some ppl just don't.

Batman would fit him like a glove. I remember they approached QT for GL or was that a rumor?

Yessir! Ahh...I forgot about Cronenbergs sorry "above CBM films" attitude also.

He doesn't have the balls to do a CBM film either! :BA
