Too much at stake. Gonna be by the numbers as by the numbers can be.

IW may be a cluster as Feige will really try to control all points of these films- Russos are gonna have a hard time I think.
They will bolt after they finish them and go to DC...just watch

 

[jye4ever]

And Snyder will go to Marvel and create the best superhero movie ever?

And going to DC is better?

What does the future look like?!

Oh Oh...what have I done.

Sounds like Infinity War will need to be renamed Ego War 1 and 2. Too bad. The visionaries are kicked to the curb while the Gimples/Feiges remain.

Hopefully Rian Johnson's Episode 8 is another $1.5 billion movie so that Kennedy lets the leash out longer and longer for each subsequent release. Because if it "only" makes $800 million or so then you know Episode 9 will be all about taking out the half-finished Starkiller 2.

I think at this point, whatever Russo bros touches will turn gold. They've got the Midas' touch.

plus Ep 9 will feature Jabba's return and Ewoks found on Jakku

i thought you were implying that DC is a better studio and that's why they'd go there. It's obvious that place is also a mess.

That's what we thought about Spielberg, Lucas, Raimi, Nolan (some would argue Jackson and Cameron as well.) If Lucas can direct American Graffiti, Star Wars, and then The Phantom Menace, Spielberg can do Jaws, Close Encounters and then 1941 (google it), Spider-Man 3, The Dark Knight Rises, etc., then the Russos can easily come out with their third superhero movie and just have it collapse in front of them. They *do* seem to have the right mindset for success but...you just never know.

I know this is off-topic a bit, but I just stumbled on this old Snyder interview from 2008 and it's... well, you have to see for yourself: https://www.ew.com/article/2008/07/17/watchmen-chat-director-zack-snyder

Remember kids, it's not a "dark" movie unless Batman gets raped in prison! Tis a strange interview...

(The average movie audience has seen — well, I can’t even count the amount of superhero movies. Fantastic Four, X-Men, Superman, Spider-Man.
The Marvel universe has gone nuts; we’re going to have a fricking Captain America movie if we’re not careful. Thor, too!

You’re getting to that saturation level where superhero movies, it’s hard for them to figure out what more to do. )

I think even CW ( as good as it may be) may not be the greatest thing many were expecting- so the Russos might have already had more "interference" by Fiege in it.

Even movies like Star Wars, avatar which are supposedly a classic masterpieces, there's a few scenes where I'd go "hmm, if I had a say in this, I'd do it this way instead." or there'd be plot holes. I thought they were just lucky with the winter soldier, and I thought if the great C. Nolan, Whedon could fall short with sequels, I don't think the Russo bros would be any different, but I was proven wrong.

Seriously? Comparing a critically acclaimed film like TDKR with garbage like The Phantom Menace, 1941, and Spider-Man 3. Only in a place like SSF

Yeah, this is all pretty ironic coming from him. Just goes to show how much of an influence the almighty dollar is.

Only on this forum do some people compare a critically acclaimed film like TDKR with garbage like The Phantom Menace, 1941, and Spider-Man 3

Only on this forum would a Nolan fanboy fail to see that I was simply offering up TDKR as a counterpoint to directors that at one point seemed like they'd make gold out of whatever they touched...
