No. Nope. All of my nope. Nolan needs to stay far away from Ready Player One.

Maybe Edgar Wright would be a decent choice?

We're talking MATTHEW VAUGHN, EDGAR WRIGHT, PETER JACKSON, or WB's dream pick, ROBERT ZEMECKIS.

I think Zemeckis has the "heart" that would be missing from a Nolan flick, not sure how he'd handle the effects work at this point in his career. I would be fine with Matthew Vaughn. Joe Cornish would make me happy... Peter Jackson (circa 2000) would be good, now his films just keep feeling more and more like he needs a co-director to manage pacing and avoid bloat.

Producer Avi Arad told Amy Pascal he had become “the proud father” of the movie in October




The deal came to light in a series of leaked emails between Sony Chief Amy Pascal and producer Avi Arad.
UPDATE: Arad has denied that the deal has closed.

This is really crazy news. Sony should just release it for free on the internet: no danger of theaters getting attacked and a big 'screw you' to N. Korea by getting the film more viewers than would otherwise be possible.

[Benjamin Haines]

It would be nice if Sony decided to give The Interview a limited release in smaller theaters just to show the world that North Korea's threats failed to prevent the film's Christmas release, even if they did manage to get the big theater chains to cower. But the film probably wouldn't turn a profit with such a small-scale release and it would squander the potential for a successful wide release in the future, so Sony's decision to cancel the Christmas release altogether makes sense. I hope it also means that they still intend to pursue a wide theatrical release, hopefully on a slow weekend in January or February when studios and theater chains aren't worried about high-profile releases like Into the Woods losing business because people are avoiding theaters altogether over terror threats.

Now look at the kind of chilling effect this is already having on the industry: http://deadline.com/2014/12/north-korea ... 201328532/
