Count up all the boxoffice, promotional tie ins and dvd sales or toys and collectables, and really have any of them really COST the studio that much money?

They all take that chance. And just because 3 our of 15 movies were bad, you throw them out. Banish them for good.

What is this measure of a man shit? I never used those words. You’ve been watching that first Hellboy movie too much. you are making assumptions or reading into things that are not there.
I like how you say “3 bad movies” like that is nothing?… except it is when these things cost millions & millions of dollars. Rodney, lets hypothetically say you are an executive producer of a film/invstor. would you hire somebody who delivered bad or substandard product far outweighing the good or decent to write or helm your film? somehow I think not.

I didnt like the last blade movie but the first two were ok.

And you cant say “film is subjective” then say you question my taste and opinion if I don’t agree with you.

Thats what opinion is… my feelings about the films. And that is all it is.

I dont insist you like the same movies as I do, please dont be naive enough to insist that if I disagree that you would condemn a writer to Hollywood banishment that there is something wrong with me.

Don’t like them.. dont see their movies. Its that simple.

The number of hacks being hired out in Hollyweird increases the number of bad product we have to wade through to get one memorable and/or well made movie. you cannot deny that.

You know good & well Goyer’s involvement with TDK is he wrote a TREATMENT a long time ago for 3 Batman movies.
Last time I checked, a treatment is nothing more than a basic outline for a script/screenplay. A treatment which the Nolans added & subrtractected from to write their screenplay which they fine-tuned & hammered out. As great as those movies are & as much as I enjoyed them, their have their flaws (Begins) & plotholes (TDK).

I digress though. Goyer has had ample opportunity to prove himself as a director & ballsed it up. If you tell me Blade Trinity was something you enjoyed (or even the Invisibles) & revisit time & again, then your taste & opinion are truly questionable. even in something as subjective as film.

btw please do not play with my words. i said nothing about “the measure of a man” in my previous post. done now.

I dare say that if that were the case, Hollywood would already have died off and we would be playing checkers instead.

Sorry Jig. I could go on ALL DAY about 3 movies that I didn’t like good by ANY director. So I guess by your logic all of Hollywood should be called hacks?

I can’t agree with logic that calls the writer of Batman Begins and Dark Knight a hack because you found something else he did that you didn’t like.

I’m sick of hearing about tools like these 3 getting all the juicy writing projects for comic based films.

They’ve all had their 3 Strikes & then some.

Goyer as director:
Demonic Toys
Blade Trinity
The Invisible

as screenwriter:
Kickboxer 2
The Crow: City of Angels
Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D..
Blade Trinity
yada yada yada

It’s now clear that Goyer’s screenwriting had nothing to do with the success of the first 2 Blade films. It was all Norrinton & Del Toro’s skills respectively. Nor the Batman reboot. It seems that was all Nolan (s).

Penn: Inspector Gadget,X3 & Elektra
You’re Out!

Goldsman:
Batman Forever
Batman & Robin
Handjob (nee Hancock)

Yer Out!

Fucking Hacks! The lot of them.

i always found the idea of magneto using ironman as a weapon to hit thor while abomination hits the hulk with thors hammer and venom trying to digest captain america all at the same time to be an amazing scene that would have been orgasmic but….that dream is now ruined…

well. i guess its kang then.

why.
