It really does seem like Abrams is the only one allowed to direct SciFi films, now.
Really, like others have said, Whedon could have done a great job. Or even Ronald D Moore.
- He directs 3 PIECE OF SHIT comic movies and now he's fit to touch Star Wars? Yeah, fucking, right.monospaced
- And don't tell me his talents from Avengers and Thor are qualifying. He is a GREAT writer though.monospaced
- Firefly and Serenity were fun, but no way qualify for big time star warsmonospaced
- Well, I'll agree his superhero flicks aren't THAT great. Still, he has a grasp of SciFi, via Firefly.Continuity
- RDM, on the other hand, would be a solid choice, just based on the BSG reboot alone. I fucking loved that series.Continuity
- Let's face it, though, re: Whedon: a director is only as good as the material he's given, and you can't polish a turd.Continuity
- Anyway, I suppose it could have been worse: they could have hired the guy who committed Babylon5.Continuity
- You're also right. He hasn't been given the right material yet. If he's known for cinematic quality, I haven't seen the evidence is allmonospaced
- evidence, that's all.monospaced
