The Official Choose A Director Thread

[Webhead2006]

Just to jump into the trek talk for a min myself. Overall i enjoyed the film alot, yes i didnt care much for some of the actors in the roles. But i think they did pretty well. The look was bright and fun same as the tone, which i would like to see in next supes film myself. Story i thought was interesting and to me i clearly told me that with spock/nero going into the past they caused an alternate time line/universe to form and the 2009 film takes place their were as the original trek timeline/universe is still out their and could easily be revisted any time a writer/studio wants too.

I don't see what was so dumb about Star Trek's plot. It was simple and that's why it worked.

You tempt me to answer...

That's the optimistic view. Although I like to pretend Spock Prime is from an alternate universe from the original Trek one. That way the original Spock did not fail to save a planet and the screwy timeline doesn't matter. I don't get how a more screwed up timeline with more screwed up characters is meant to be as good as the original version. Oh wait it's the new dumber Trek that requires you to leave your brain at the door. Otherwise you'll drown from the stupidity. Oh well hopefully I can go back to forgetting about it.

I wasn't asking for him to be perfect Angeloz, nobody is perfect and a perfect character is a boring one. Maybe I'm not a great one but I fancy myself and sort of writer and I would never write a perfect character.

I like flaws, I want Superman to be flawed but I think there is a difference from him being flawed and being a dumbass jerk.

Like everyother Human I'm flawed, I've done s**t before but there is a limit to what I will do. I wouldn't skip out of the love of my life for five years and not expect em to be angry about it...thats not flawed thats just dumb.

Sorry for all those posts guys, board was really acting up earlier.

 

[Angeloz]

Yea i wonder what was up with the boards today doing multi posts and for awhile at different points i had the error mesage board down stuff. As for who ever takes the reigns for supes if we are lucky to actually get another film going which i really hope they can. I do hope he or even she looks at what fans didnt like last time what worked, and finds that middle ground, well making a well rounded film with newer elements thrown in and good villains and all that.

Like i said before it would be a great feeling one of these days to wake up or get online at some point in the day head over to news sites/here or other forum spots and see the 100% confirmed its happening news of writers/director/direction, and then casting down the road.

While this comment already borders on being a flavor of the month suggestion, I'd like to make it before it becomes a full on flavor of the month suggestion......

I say we all take a look at Neill Blomkamp's District 9 thats opening this weekend. On several occasions I've mentioned that Peter Jackson is my pure fanboy choice to Direct Superman, and Blomkamp is a figurative student of Jackson, so I'm very, very interested.

 

[GreenKToo]

Jackson would be my dream director for Superman.

 

[NotFadeAway]

Jackson would be my dream director for Superman.

Which is why we should keep an eye open with District 9.....Blomkamp could be the next best thing.

^Hmmmm... Not a bad idea at all!

All indications point to the man having an abundance of talent, and he is a student of Peter Jackson. Get him while we can.

 

[jaymes_e06]

He'd be way cheaper than Jackson too!

 

[NotFadeAway]

He'd be way cheaper than Jackson too!

And more likely to sign a 3-4 picture deal

 

[DA Dent]

I hope it's not Peter Jackson, Lord of the Rings literally bored me to sleep.

 

[GreenKToo]

Oh wow really? One of my all time favs. Each to their own tho.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Yeah peter Jackson, and Stephen Spielberg. Dream team for supes!
