oh thats just seems WRONG imlad Send a noteboard - 01/06/2010 12:48:02 AM
While I like the directing the two of them do, their styles are just too far off of what JAckson did for the LotR, and from del Toro's style; they are not right for the tone and feel necessary to do The Hobbit. There needs to be a sense of wonder and magic to the movies, something I haven't seen in any QT or Ritchie movies yet. That would be a travesty in my opinion, not far off of how bad it would be to have Joss Whedon direct the Kill Bill sequel, or have Oliver Stone directing a Star Wars movie.

Their attitude towards film making, the style and flow, all of it is just not something that matches up with Middle Earth.

If Jackson won't relent and direct the Hobbit movies, then it really needs to be someone like Spielberg, or even Ron Howard (and I am NO fan of Howard).

Maybe, if he was able to do the movie without casting Russell Crowe (and without chopping to pieces the script like he did with Robin Hood) Ridley Scott could pull it off. Frank Oz could do it, and so could Terry Gilliam (hmmm... not a bad idea that). Even James Cameron would be a more fitting choice. Joel Coen could do it.

But really? Seriously? Tarentino or Ritchie? I wouldn't even bother going to see that movie. It just would not be right. There are so many other, BETTER, choices out there:

MAtthew Vaughn
Gore Verbinski
Chris Weitz
Andrew Adamson
Francis Ford Coppola
Brian de Palma
Robert Zemekis
or even Roland Emmerich.


I would like to see Tarantino direct, or Guy Ritchie. I'm serious.


I'd be down with that.
Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.

No, del Toro is Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy. - 02/06/2010 08:10:00 AM 626 Views
So he's made one good movie and one atrocious one. - 03/06/2010 01:32:50 AM 565 Views
I haven't seen Hellboy. - 03/06/2010 04:25:45 AM 670 Views
I'm sure he meant Pan's Labyrinth was the good one. Hellboy sucked big floppy donkey dicks. *NM* - 03/06/2010 05:27:03 AM 324 Views
Yes. *NM* - 04/06/2010 06:05:26 AM 291 Views

PoA was better than the movies after it, surely. - 02/06/2010 08:36:14 PM 703 Views
Disagree. PoA was better than tCoS, but that's because Chamber was a travesty of a novel. - 03/06/2010 01:32:31 AM 612 Views
I don't get why people love the PoA movie so much. - 03/06/2010 01:59:50 AM 575 Views
How can you claim it's better than the later movies? - 03/06/2010 09:39:28 AM 702 Views
It's funny how people can't agree on this ever - 03/06/2010 10:20:13 AM 687 Views
You are talking about the books, right? *NM* - 03/06/2010 07:25:47 PM 266 Views
No no, film. - 03/06/2010 07:42:44 PM 579 Views
