What is your favorite movie franchise?
So in today's article, I want to discuss which directors I think should have done a film in the world's most popular franchises. Let's get to it.
James Bond- Christopher Nolan- We can pretty much put Nolan at the top of every list here. Nolan met with the Bond producers to discuss his ideas, but they went with Denis Villeneuve to helm the new direction.
The Fast And Furious- Tony Scott- While Scott sadly passed away years ago, imagine his visuals during the car shots. There's a reason his worst film, 'The Last Boy Scout', looks more stunning than today's films.
Star Wars- Steven Spielberg- I think Hayden Christensen's Anakin would have fared better with Spielberg's writing and dialogue, which would have given him the proper layers to turn to the dark side later on.
Star Trek- Quentin Tarantino- He wrote a script that involved the Kelvin timeline time-travelling back to do a Mobster film, which would have been R-rated and nuts.
Mission: Impossible- James Cameron- He was at the forefront of stunts with the Terminator series, but he also knows how to write characters that could have given Tom Cruise's Ethan Hunt the storyline he was properly missing in the last two films.
Superman- Michael Bay- Imagine the patriotic visuals and hero shots that Bay can capture, making it look like a comic book on steroids.
Lord Of The Rings- Ridley Scott- Known for his big battle scenes, would Scott have done a better job than Peter Jackson with the action?
Harry Potter- George Lucas- He would have given the series more memorable big moments that I think were missing, but then again, I wasn't a fan of the series, so take this with a grain of salt.
Whom do you want to see on that list? Comment below with your thoughts.
