You know what? I don't even fucking care anymore.

They can make their garbage with garbage directors, I don't care to talk about them or see them so, they can do what they want.

I'm gonna go pay attention to fun stuff, like actually fun creative good movies. I'm done pretending this is even news when it's barely directors doing studio cash grabs.

Eh…Attack the Block and Monster were both pretty good from 2/3 of these directors

Eh back, we are also talking The Kid Who Would be King and practically very little else under Cornish's creative control. So no name nepo baby with minor success using other people's movies from 20 years ago for pop culture references and one hit and other flops will be rewriting a script already written for him by 2 other people (seriously apparently the movies are already written and will be touched up by these directors)

And Kasdan hasnt made something good since freaks and geeks

And Patty Jenkins... I enjoy The Room, I don't want to hand a trilogy over to Wiseau.

The more you look into this story the more pathetic it is. Literally prewritten movies to directors they think have good marketing and cheap costs. Slop to make a dime. This doesn't deserve covering for it. And it doesn't deserve our limited time on this world.
