OK. I give. No more. Uncle. Please? Please stop directing. Pretty please?
Now, I know you have your eyes on the Watchmen movie. You wrote the
script, and you've been shopping for production. Please stop it. Just bury
the project and let a real director take it over. Burn the script. I've seen
the ending, and it's terrible. The whole idea is terrible.
Take this as advice. Comic geeks the world over will hunt and kill you for
mauling Watchmen like you did. They'll come at you like reverse-zombies.
You'll be sitting there thinking about the next stupid p.o.s. you wanna direct
and BAM(!), the geek hoard will burst through your office door and consume
you.
Love,
ubercat

2Oh sweet Christ. Watchmen is practically unfilmable as it is, but he'd definitely make it unwatchable.
You face-punch him for that, i'll cock-punch him for X3. You hit 'im high, i'll hit 'im low.

3Terry Gilliam considered directing this film as early as 1989, but after several unsatisfactory drafts of the screenplay, decided the material unfilmable as a feature production. Gilliam has said he would consider directing it as a twelve hour miniseries.
Miniseries sounds great.

He's the cunt responsible for X-men 3? You should cock-punch him in the face.

6I can't believe that hack is actually going to get a crack at Watchmen. I'd rather the movie never be made than let this guy turn it into 3 hours of dishwater.

Dude. The guy had a finished script and Warner had it on the schedule. Then
(thank god) a new studio head came in and killed it based on the cost alone.
120 million. Now the project is at least pushed back until 2009 (if Ratner
gets the job).
T Gilliam actually rejected the entire project. He said he just couldn't do it.
He apparently wanted to do it all CGI free. Not sure how an alien the size
of Manhattan would work out w/o cgi... ...the pulpish feel without cgi would
have been perfect though.
Rambling...

10Ratner's not been attached to this for some time, as far as I knew.
Here is what Wikipedia has to say about Zach Snyder.
Dawn of the Dead was a well made, if not particularly memorable movie.
But I just saw the trailer for 300, and I have to say I was pretty darn near blown away by it visually - a step away from traditional cinematography a la Sin City (but not a rip of Sin City).
So, anyway. No Ratner.
Back in June 2006, some wag on the Ain't It Cool News film site wrote:[url=http://www.aintitcool.com/node/23685]Well, we called it back in March, but now it's official. Zack Snyder's the man for WATCHMEN. In that article, I hinted at the identity of a writer who was brought in to go through every single one of Hayter's drafts as well as the book to try and really streamline this thing. As this film has bounced from studio to studio, the script picked up a little bit of scar tissue, residual material left over from notes that were executed to try to get that ever-elusive greenlight. Alex Tse has been brought in to try and strip all of that away and just get back to the cleanest version of Alan Moore's WATCHMEN possible.
That 300 editing room visit is finally cleared for publication, so expect to see that in the days ahead. It's great stuff, and as soon as I walked out of that room, I was sold on Snyder as the guy who can bring this epic story to the screen. We'll see.[/url]
