Wapitikev Wrote:PS-Is your avatar a picture of Kate Winslett...it sort of resembles her.Yep. I'm a big fan, but never saw her as Gia. Now Charlize, I can see.
GeraldRice Wrote:Katherine Bigelow- Strange Days was awesome. Just don't let her get too mushy.
Wapitikev Wrote:Beacon Communications is the production company, Ryan Reynolds is cast as Jack, and Chris Morgan wrote the most recent version of the script…but no Director, yet...
Wapitikev Wrote:I was doing some (more) research on horror directors for possible options and I came across Peter Hyams, director of The Relic and End of Days
What I didn't realize until today was that End of Days was a Beacon Communications picture.
He can do dark: End of Days
He can do the period pieces/flashbacks: Musketeer
He can do the creepy creatures: Relic
He's currently filming a remake of Beyond A Reasonable Doubt (1956) with Michael Douglas, but otherwise looks to be available.
Hmmmm. He wouldn't be my first choice, but he's capable. My list, thus far, in order of preference:
Peter Jackson (back to his horror roots)
Ridley Scott (Alien. 'Nuff-said)
Alex Proyas (The Crow, Dark City)
Peter Hyams (see above)
Marc Forster (has he ever done a monster movie?)
Timor Bekmambetov (fallen in my esteem thanx to Dave's plea)

bones weep tedium Wrote:Peter Jackson returning to his horror roots . . . slapstick comedy horror for RJ? Can you imagine RJ drinking a dishful of Rakosh vomit?
bones weep tedium Wrote:Ridley Scott would never do it.
bones weep tedium Wrote:Marc Forster is the man responsible for the death of my parents. I will never give him my seal of approval.
bones weep tedium Wrote:Timon 'N' Pumbaski is embarrasing. I had to stop Daywatch becasue I was embarrased to watch it. I wish I had seen this when I was 12 and with a javelin sticking out of my head; unfortunatley that is the only way I think this film would offer any sort of entertainment.
