I'm not burying my head in the sand. I'm just put off by the impression that people are happy about Trank's apparent personal self-implosion because it vindicates their certainty that the movie is going to be bad.

That's not fair.

Some of us are also happy that we'll get a better director on that Star Wars film.

You are the one saying people are happy, please point to people being happy. And sticking your head in the sand is exactly what you are doing, you're ignoring clear warning signs in favour of saying everything's okay when anyone paying attention can clearly see it's not. THR's not some rumour site like Eh Maybe and they've been running stories on Trank's behaviour for a while, if memory serves. Now he's been booted from Star Wars, apparently not even involved in heavy reshoots of this film and not to mention the actors avoiding discussing the film and the negative things that have come out when they have. If you cannot see warning signs, you are sticking your head in the sand here. Hope it's comfortable.

That's my thought....I believe he has screwed up the FF and that there is nothing that can help it this far into it (except maybe not releasing it at all)....so the news that he was dropped from the next STAR WARS film was great news for me, for now I know that movie won't be ruined as well.

 

[DigificWriter]

I'm not happy about about Trank's personal and professional problems. I am estatic, however, that a cheap corporate rights grab that crapped all over Marvel's First Family and represented a huge step backward in the golden age of superhero films is a glorious mess behind the scenes.

This is exactly the kind of behavior and sentiment that I'm put off by.

 

[ThePhantasm]

Well, there's a difference between people who are disappointed at the current state of the film, and people who were wishing it would turn out this way. I'm one of the former, not the latter.

 

[cronosred]

Perhaps people would feel more for Trank if he hadn't come off as an arrogant *** so early on.

 

[Eddie]

This is exactly the kind of behavior and sentiment that I'm put off by.

There's a really easy way to avoid seeing those comments...

BTW, anybody know why these Trank articles keep saying the movie's coming out in July? Last I heard, it's still set for August 7.

Recap so far:

*3 month filming completed
*Fox hated what they saw and demanded reshoots
*Said demand gave way to Trank acting unprofessionally to where he threated Sneider and trashed a residence. Plus substance abuse

*Insulted both Kinberg and Kennedy to where he was refused to appear at the SW celebrations

*Net result of the last two points gave way to his dismissal from the stand alone SW project and Fan4stic reshoots are still going on albeit without him

 

[DigificWriter]

^ I'm still bothered by the impression that is sent regardless.... and would be bothered even if I didn't have an interest in this movie.

 

[C. Lee]

This is exactly the kind of behavior and sentiment that I'm put off by.

And other posters are "put off" by people who ignored every single complaint made by others about the production. You will never have a 100% concensus on anything....some people will like something while others dislike it.

Here we have people who have said they were not liking what they were seeing and hearing about the production. They also said that they were hearing unsettling things about the director. Some people on here said that our reasons for be apprehensive were overreactions and that what was said about the director was false stories being made up by the people who felt apprehensive. Well.....now the stories about him are being proven true. Is it that hard to think that at least some of our worries about the production are not false or overreactions?

Why would you be put off by it? There is nothing in it that personally impacts you in any way. If it bothers you that much, why not put the guy on ignore?

I don't get why people take things like that so personally, who cares if he's happy about all of this, the movie will be out in August, it will not keep you from going to see it...and if those comments make your life crappy here, then put them on ignore that is exactly what that feature is for...

Hell some people are thinking, hey maybe we will get something even better now that the one that had no respect for the source material in the slightest is out and someone that at least knows and understands the source material has taken over. That is how I see it, was that a personal attack on you?

 

[DigificWriter]

For the record, I would be bothered by the impression sent by certain people's comments even if I didn't have an interest in this movie.

*The very night this information comes out Fox schedules another film a mere two weeks after Fant4stic.

I'm really upset---does this mean Michael Jordan won't be in the Star Wars movie that trank was going to make?

If MJB is smart, he will drop that connection QUICKLY...

 

[Eddie]

Don't worry. Trank can probably get Space Jam 2 instead.

 

[ThePhantasm]

I like MBJ. I was always disappointed that his character was killed off in Chronicle.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

No one is happy that Trank might have a problem. No one is celebrating that, so stop trying to change the subject. What puts you off is that the signs were there from the start. Everyone knew this was a rights grab. Look at how filming started, they kept pushing it back. Then the reports of Trank came out, and still people wanted to deny it. These amounts of reshoots are normal some said. It has taken Trank getting fired from Star Wars for at least a little acknowledgement, and now you have decided to come here and shame people for pointing out the obvious.

Is there a chance this movie is good? Yes. Is it a good chance? No. And that has been clear for a long time. Some have just chosen to ignore that.

 

[Jason Kane]

*The very night this information comes out Fox schedules another film a mere two weeks after Fant4stic.

That too.

Im fully sure no reshoot in the world can salvage this bad egg. Especially now that the latest developments confirmed the very rumors that turned up since the 2nd half of 2014.

Yeah, like Noah.

Don't temp fate.

See, I'm kind of sad that he isn't doing a Star Wars anthology. There is no "source material" to destroy for the most part. These are being touted as new stories. Something different than the Episodes.

At least that was my impression I got from their descriptions. And from the types of directors Kennedy was looking for.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I feel bad for all five young leads, especially Teller. The young man is a beast of an actor. Never seems to stop working. Kate, MJB, Kebbell and Bell are all quality as well.
