Is that really fair though? They hired them for a reason. These aren't flavors of the month, Lord and Miller worked hard to establish themselves. They aren't just coming in on their second movie. They've done a number of hit features and TV projects already. So now they have buyer's remorse and they don't stand by them?
Robert Zemeckis had to deal with a lot of issues while filming Roger Rabbit. Before the animation and visuals were done, the movie didn't look good at all, and people didn't know what the hell they were watching. Zemeckis stood his ground and they finished it and they made something classic, iconic and different.
I'm not saying this is the same thing, but I'm also saying what's going on here? Are they going to let these filmmakers, these artists, do the job you hired them to do or not?
Now yeah there are those stories about the production issues, setting up late, and not doing the extra camera setups and all that. But who even knows if that's true or accurate?
