I would wait, and not count them out quite yet. Of course they are facing insurmountable odds that they will pull through and create a Dark Knight caliber super hero film because that takes a director that won't want to be attached to this "reboot." So, I predict that they will sign a director new to the "Holleywood" scene, so he/she could be an indie director. But this very well may be a director's directing debut. Its a possibility and I wouldn't count it out. The reason being is that directors, when they need fame quickly, sometimes like to turn around flops. Its always incredibly risky. But, if I was the chairman, and I had my way, I would do all that I could to get Ridley Scott, Peter Burg, JJ Abrams (who would never do it), Jon Favreau, Quentin Terentino, you know high quality directors who tend to make action/drama pictures. I think that Quentin Terentino would bring something groundbreaking to the table because he's just that kind of guy. I'm counting out Stephen Chow because he wouldn't do this film...for obvious reasons. But what intrigues me is that Marstars is still signed on. He could still be pulled from the project, but what does that mean for Chatwin? Just saying...I know that one doesn't mean the other, but still... And I gotta say I don't at all agree with thi 150 mill must. Thats b.s. The effects were of a good enough quality with a low blockbuster budget, even though they were not handled well and designed horribly. In my humble opinion, what I think would drive up the budget are better vfx artists, better actors, better director, better pros that write and compose the music, and of course better screenwriters. Oh and of course better marketing, much better. This has to be a balls out epic that attempts to put Spiderman, Ironman, and The incredible Hulk to shame. Hell, they want this to be a trilogy! So, they still believe in this franchise, and we might as well warm up to this since Fox will not give up without atleast three years of fighting lol. There are of course more elements that would jack up the budget, but those parts are the ones that I follow... But I'm preparing for the unexpected, a complete 180, since that's what life usually throws at me, so I don't know and NOBODY knows either.
