Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
We need Matt Reeves for a MonsterVerse movie. In fact he or Dougherty are who should had been the director of the 2014 Godzilla film.

Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
For a second I thought the title was 'Dictators you want to see in the MonsterVerse'. I was going to say Kim-Jong Il, if he were still alive, but I see I mis-read.
Same answer.

Matt Reeves would make an iconic King Kong film, maybe even bring Serkis back for a kaiju role?GodzillaFan1990's wrote:We need Matt Reeves for a MonsterVerse movie. In fact he or Dougherty are who should had been the director of the 2014 Godzilla film.

If not Jordan Vogt-Roberts again. Matt Reeves should be the director of a Kong sequel._JNavs_ wrote:Matt Reeves would make an iconic King Kong film, maybe even bring Serkis back for a kaiju role?

Came to say this. Reeves proved he can make a 10/10 monster flick with Cloverfield imo.GodzillaFan1990's wrote:We need Matt Reeves for a MonsterVerse movie. In fact he or Dougherty are who should had been the director of the 2014 Godzilla film.
Also Alfonso Cuaron. Love the guy. He can put a unique spin on anything he touches

I was one of the few screaming for Doughtery to be the director prior to Gareth Edward's announcement for Godzilla 2014. So I 100% agree with this. Matt Reeves would make a fine monster film despite me not being a big fan of Cloverfield. I do love ''Let me in'' and his planet of the apes films so I have no complaints.

"Ah Rosie, I love this boy." Sam Raimi..... he is one of a kind.Godzillian wrote:Sam Rami would be a great choice
He would give the monsters personality like no other, I mean he made Green Goblin and Doc Ock some of the most memorable villains of all time, because of a great script and direction. Heck, Sam Raimi's "cheesy" style is great at capturing certain elements, like I legitimately can see him pulling off Godzilla doing some more out there stuff in this day and age, like boulder tossing!Dr. Professor wrote: Every time a monster would appear it would cut to a shot of a woman screaming into the camera.

J.A. Bayona. Before people hold JW:FK against him, that wasn't his fault. His power was very limited because Colin Trevorrow wanted a more bombastic tone and ruined his vision. I'd like to see him make a Godzilla/ giant monster movie and see how it turns out.

Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
Everybody has their own opinion on Zack Snyder, but I personally loved what he's done with BvS, MOS and Watchmen. I think he could pull off a really mean Kaiju film. He has an eye for scale and does wonders with his Cinematographer (Clay Enos I believe). Plus his special effects are off the chain. Say what you will but his plots often have deep ideologies with shallow characterization, which works for monster films.

Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
He has the visual side down packed, God-like ideals and his shallow characterizations basically sum up all kaiju film characters Plus like I said, Clay Enos is too nice with the cameraGodzillaFan1990's wrote:Oh skreeonk no!

Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
Still don't want him touching the MonsterVerse with a 100 meter long pole especially after what he did that doomed the DCEU. Good visuals and camera work or not._JNavs_ wrote:He has the visual side down packed, God-like ideals and his shallow characterizations basically sum up all kaiju film characters Plus like I said, Clay Enos is too nice with the camera

Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
You didn't like MoS? Idk I liked the modern realistic take on the invincible blue Boy Scout. Bats was a beast and I understood him killing indirectly since Robins death. JL was a disaster but his film was much different than Joss Whedons hot mess of jokes and bright colors.GodzillaFan1990's wrote:Still don't want him touching the MonsterVerse with a 100 meter long pole especially after what he did that doomed the DCEU.

Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
No I did not because they turned who is suppose to be the Symbol of Peace into this gloomy emo downer which Superman is not suppose to be._JNavs_ wrote:You didn't like MoS?

They also turned Batman into Bat Punisher.
And that's just scratching the surface of the problems with the DCEU especially including how they were trying to rush to catch up to where the MCU was rather then take their time.

Re: Directors you want to see in the MonsterVerse
I saw it more as Superman being conflicted on his place in the universe, Like questioning who is he to play hero? If the people don't want him, why should he try? By JL I'm sure Zack Snyder would've had Superman come back MUCH differently than what Joss Whedon had in mind.GodzillaFan1990's wrote:No I did not because they turned who is suppose to be the Symbol of Peace into this gloomy emo downer which Superman is not suppose to be._JNavs_ wrote:You didn't like MoS?

Batman really didn't kill anyone directly, it was more like a Batman Begins Ra's al Ghul situation, where he indirectly causes their death but it's not HIS fault. Such as the one dude that tried to grab a grenade, that was HIS decision not Batmans.
I didn't see it as rushing as much as it seemed like they were trying something different, team up stories that led to solo films. But JL definitely felt rushed and developed into a mess due to 2 completely different minds working on the film.

Agree to disagree then. May as well drop it since this isn't the thread for it._JNavs_ wrote:I saw it more as Superman being conflicted on his place in the universe, Like questioning who is he to play hero?

Batman really didn't kill anyone directly, it was more like a Batman begins Morale, where he indirectly causes their death but it's not HIS fault. Such as the one dude that tried to grab a grenade, that was HIS decision not Batmans.

Since I mentioned it in other thread.
Matt Reeves to direct a Beast from 20,000 Fathoms remake.
Given his great film track record and doing a giant monster movie in New York. He's fit for the role.

Michael Bay or Rian Johnson, so we never get the opportunity again.
