No it really wouldn't be....Nolan is notorious for wanting certain things to be "grounded in reality". People involved with Batman Begins said they had to fight him to include grappling hooks in the film because he thought they were bullshyt.


Nolan is a great director but that doesn't mean he could or should direct everything. I haven't seen anything that would lead me to believe he could handle a Sci-Fi fantasy epic.


Guys like Peter Jackson and Matthew Vaughn would be better suited for something like Star Wars.

Hell Jon Faveru would be better suited to direct Star Wars than Nolan.

Exactly. Star Wars is about escapism. Even a film like Empire, while it has it's darker moments, is all about the spectacle and fun of an epic space soap opera. Nolan is too caught up in being dark and brooding to make an out and out entertaining blockbuster.

I swear sometimes it's like Nolan is the only director these dudes have ever heard.

Remaking Singin' In the Rain? Get NOLAN DA GAWD
Police Academy 14? NOLAN DA GAWD PERFECT 4 DAT shyt
Yung Berg's Biopic? NOLAN DA GAWD OR WE RIOT

Nolans action sequences are some of the worst trash ive ever witnessed for an action blockbuster. He can make good drama and stuff but when it comes to the action he just needs to fall back like he tripped on a bananna peel.

-I guess you want some comedic elements thrown into the Star Wars universe like a scene with Luke going on a drunken bender and using his force powers to remove shirts off women to expose their breasts

Has jack shyt to do with comedic sense and everything to do with Favreau knowing how to incorporate Sci-Fi and fantasy elements better than Nolan would.

I'm not saying Favreau would be my first choice, I'm saying I'd rather him than Nolan's pretentious ass.

My top picks to direct a Star Wars film would be Peter Jackson and Matthew Vaughn (The guy who directed Kick-Ass, Stardust, and X-Men: First Class).

In the case of Vaughn EVERY film he's made has been very good, he's shown he can handle Fantasy elements in his film, and he'll be available for the project since he dropped out of the First Class sequel.

I like Favreau, I'm actually a fan of his. Iron Man was right up his alley, the swag in Robert Downey as Iron Man could've fit perfectly in any Favreau film. Star Wars is so different. and of course Nolan would purposely make the film pitch black.. also throw in the fact that a light saber battle or a dog fight space battle would look like utter sh*t if Nolan directed it.

I'm not even choosing him off Iron Man. I could see him doing a better job than Nolan based off his work on Zathura.

With Favreau you just have to make sure you have a strong script and make him stick to it.

Like I said though neither him nor Nolan would be my picks though. I just think Favreau would be better than Nolan.

Matthew Vaughn is the most likely candidate. Peter Jackson would be perfect but he's still dikking around with middle earth stuff.

No.......You should know better by now...

The games for this stuff are likely to be complete and utter garbage....They're gonna hand them off to some shytty ass studio and give them an unreasonable timeline to get it done.
