"R.I.P.D." Getting "RED" Director?

McG is out and Robert Schwentke is in. The director of the upcoming comic book adaptation film, R.E.D., will replace McG in another comic book adaptation film, R.I.P.D. from Dark Horse Comics. It's about cops policing the dead in the underworld. Cool concept huh? Above is a picture of the comic book cover.

Rumors are Ryan Reynolds a.k.a. MR. COMIC BOOK is set to star. I'm undecided about the news. I've seen some of Schwentke's work and I'm not impressed. I saw The Time Travelor's Wife and really didn't like it. And I wasn't a fan of Flightplan either. Then again, R.E.D. looks awesome based on the trailers.

McG is a horrible director in my opinion, so that works in Schwentke's favor. What do you think about A.) YET ANOTHER comic book adaptation? and B.) Schwentke directing rather than McG?

McG wants to make Terminator Salvation 2 and 3, would you watch?

OK, so I didn't exactly LOVE Terminator Salvation. But as I said in my review, it was an action movie with non-stop thrills. Well, if you were divided on the issue of McG being the director, here's some news for you. He is speaking out that he wants to complete a trilogy of "Terminator" films; Salvation being the first.

The movie rights are in limbo right now, but who knows, maybe a major studio buys the rights and McG gets his dream. Either way, I think I'm gonna sit this one out and buy the Blu-Ray. I don't feel like spending 12 dollars a ticket, leave dissapointed, and wishing James Cameron was still in control of the franchise.
