I was stoked that the most arty-farty director in Hollywood was gonna tackle the most commercial property. Should have been interesting.

I know. This is sad. But probably a good move. I could have imagined it turning out something like Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Alien flick. Some parts of the film world are simply not meant to collide.

I could foresee it mixing enough aspects of art films with those of action films to suck at being either one.
