Read that somewhere, or saw an interview, or both. Might even have been here. Doesn't really guarantee sequels.

Indeed. Though if I recall correctly Chris Evans broke the record with a nine movie deal for Cap.

Stan

Or maybe it was six. In either case it was a larger deal than I've ever heard of.

11 months to go, no Teaser trailer or more photos? Mmmmm....

Peace is a lie, there's only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.

You have never felt pain until you've trodden barefoot on an upturned lego brick..

At least there's the knowledge that for every Supernova there's a Superman II!

Shit, that doesn't sound good. Could turn out to be a load of fuss over nothing, though - the situation could be more amicable than the article suggests.

Got to say, I was always a little dubious over the choice of Travis as director.

Doubt it.

Fuzzed

Thinking it over now I've calmed down from the initial flip out - and it was a doozy, palpitations and deer-in-headlights - I'm not going to panic since I think more of Garland than Travis. Wish there were no tensions, but if this is for real, then I'd prefer the control landing in Garland's lap. With the crew behind him, I'm sure he'll direct fine.

*will be upbeat no matter what*

Hate the bad press though.

Goaty

Well it in Dark Horizons as producers wasn't happy with director's vision.

I guess it was the helmets too big?

.....as well as The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. Despite all the craziness during production and post-production, it was well-recieved critically.

But it was maybe a good choice? As I means there too many shit films, and how can they let it out like that?

Yeah but the director didn't get fucked off it and it was entirely Gilliam's film from start to finish. For this to happen on a film is a pretty huge deal and not at all common. It happened on the '95 film too.
