I saw his "Arthurian" movie....:o
Boring!

Or if the Michael Mann shows up that did Collateral. That other Michael Mann need not apply.
Tony Scott! Nice choice.
But I would choose Ridley Scott.

The Arthur movie was entirely different.

), is that he removed all the mysticism. He made it 'real', and that is just draining away the fun right there.If he tried to do the same to Jack, then it won't be Jack (although you may like it Auskar).
If we're talking Asian directors, then my vote is with Park Chan-Wook. His vengeance films are genius storytelling and visually stunning.

If Tony Stark directs I will not be seeing it. I haven't enjoyed a movie of his since "The Last Boyscout". I don't know who does his editing, probably has a hand in it himself, but his movies are a live-action version of an epilectic fit. "Man on Fire", that movie with Keira Knightley and "Deja Vu" were completely unwatchable.

Somebody has Iron Man on their mind . . .

I haven't seen The Replacement Killers. I dislike Chow Yun-Fat.
