Fantastic Four reboot

True. Though this comment could just as easily refer to the Avengers promotional material in all of it's ham-fisted PS'd glory.

True

The Avengers promo pics were average at best.

Cut & paste-o-rama.

True

I remember how terrible the initial First Class promo shots looked. Just awful. And that movie ended up being one of the best made comic movies yet.

Rogue cut better bring some much needed action though.

Wolverine stabbing with bone claws, Magneto lifting more stuff and Mystique turning blue doesn't cut it anymore post TWS.

Wut....

In an interview with Hero Complex to promote this summer’s Fantastic Four, Trank denied the reports of trouble on that film, saying that he has been shocked by the reaction to his Star Wars departure. “People get so excited to raise their pitchforks,” he said.

Claiming it was the hardest decision he’s ever had to make, Trank says he ultimately left the project because he didn’t want to take on another huge franchise right away.

“I want to do something original after this because I’ve been living under public scrutiny, as you’ve seen, for the last four years of my life,” he said. “And it’s not healthy for me right now in my life. I want to do something that’s below the radar. … I have a great relationship with everyone at Lucasfilm and with [Lucasfilm VP of development Kiri Hart]. And they all understood it because this whole experience for me has been very psychologically hard.”

Promo and poster "art" is long dead. It's just kids with stolen Photoshop anymore. Dumb and ugly is cheap, but they make a million doing it anyway.

Hey, I resent that.

My copy of CS6 is all legal and above board

Four years of public scrutiny? I hadn't even heard of this guy until a few months back.

"Psychologically hard"

Whennnnnnnnnnnnn

Yup, Lucasfilm was "nice" to his face but bts they were like "GTFO", we ain't trusting this unstable kid with this franchise/budget.

Go find a psychiatrist kid, we got a movie to make.

"Below the radar" = "rehab"

Pretty much, what new director passes on SW to go below the radar.

He can go hang out with Tom Sizemore.

from the same article

For her part, Lucasfilm VP of development Kiri Hart said it had been “a privilege to collaborate with Josh” and that the company was “grateful for the energy and love of 'Star Wars' that he brought to the process.”

But rumors quickly began swirling that there were deeper, darker reasons behind the parting of ways. The Hollywood Reporter, citing unnamed sources, reported that Trank had, in fact, been fired from the "Star Wars" film

That one guy that made a movie about a desert planet with worms and spice.

Not exactly going below the radar....

Would have been amazing to have seen his take on Jedi though.

 

[EVILFACE]

I think he would have made ROTJ awesome. Polly no muppets in it either.

Fett would have gotten a lightsaber through the chin.

Instead we had to settle for a Sarlaac Burp.

I wouldn't trust him with Star Wars either

Who is the lady with the log?






Come on someone has to have the correct answer.

 

[karamazov80]

She's the Log Lady.

If she was a MOTU character, she'd be Timb-ra.
