I would add Bird and Jones to your list, and be nervous about the rest. {nm} BSmurf Oct 31, 09:04

Not sure about Bird and live action. I love Jones, but would rather see him focus on original sci-fi. Plus he's not kinetic enough. {nm} numbersix_99 Oct 31, 09:16

MI4: Ghost Protocol was great! And the Incredibles was amazing. Since Star Wars has become practically an animated movie anyway.... :) {nm} BSmurf Oct 31, 09:39

Whoops, confused Brad Bird with Andrew Stanton. Yes, Bird would be great. MI4 had some great sequences. {nm} numbersix_99 Oct 31, 10:02

Brad Bird is wonderful, but let's hope he does not waste his time on resuscitating a cash cow to sell toys for Disney. {nm} second gary Oct 31, 09:45

Good point, but I'm a believer that if they make the cash from the cow, then they'll get some freedom to do a personal project. Win-win {nm} BSmurf Oct 31, 09:53

Maybe David Lynch...first time back to Disney since "The Straight Story {nm} Richard In G Oct 31, 09:10

Hah! I would buy a ticket for every seat of my local cinema if Lynch did Star Wars. He did turn down Jedi, though. {nm} numbersix_99 Oct 31, 09:15

oooh -- David Cronenberg would be very interesting... {nm} BSmurf Oct 31, 09:40

And icky. {nm} numbersix_99 Oct 31, 10:14

Let Gore Verbinski do them. {nm} second gary Oct 31, 09:47

How about going in a different direction...Dennis Dugan {nm} BUY BONDS 19 Oct 31, 09:53

Seth MacFarlane. {nm} Antibody Oct 31, 10:10

Doh, I didn't think THR would list him. {nm} Antibody Oct 31, 10:13

Scott Derrickson {nm} Richard In G Oct 31, 11:05

Brad Bird is great at putting you in the universe of the movie...whether it's the 50's, France, or a city full of superheroes {nm} tealfan Oct 31, 12:41
