Sony wants a Chipmunks-like family film, not an artsy film like Speed Racer or Where the WILD Things Are. {nm}

you're such an apologist for the studios who have lulled the public into accepting crap, because its easier for a studio to islander Jul 08, 14:13

We haven't seen Pixar tackle a pre-existing property. I {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 14:31

I'm a realist. Box Office is a business. Hollywood is a business. {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 14:33

So what you're saying is that if you were a studio head, the Lord of the rings trilogy doesnt get greenlit with Peter Jackson as director. islander Jul 08, 16:08

Those weren't family films. {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 17:54

I wish Jackson hadn't been the choice LOTR. Three of the most boring movies I've ever seen. I fell alseep during the first one, begged for angusmctrader Jul 08, 18:18

As long as the public eats up crap, the studios will keep making it. {nm} Hooray360 Jul 08, 14:50

There should more quality films, like that one with Kate Winslet as the Nazi bedding the underage kid. Or more of those Eastwood films about angusmctrader Jul 08, 18:23

Sounds like a safe enough place for him - at least he's not directing any movie I'd want to watch {nm} Roger More Jul 08, 13:38

Experience in live action/animation hybrid, and has a great team: Stem and Weiss (Shrek 2), Kerner (Charlotte's Web), good choice. {nm} latafilms Jul 08, 14:09

Great director to be attached for this project! [SMURF] {nm} latafilms Jul 08, 13:10

was Raja already on the stockpage, or are updates just super-duper fast in V4?...lol {nm} tealfan Jul 08, 13:27

They just put him there, when i bought he wasn't on the page. Super ScoobyDooChihuaha fast. latafilms Jul 08, 13:32

That sounds about right. {nm} secretstalker Jul 08, 15:11
