Edgar Wright needs to show he can do a huge blockbuster if he wants.
After that he'll get funding for some bullshyt I'll love.

Isn't Orci working on the Power Rangers movie?

They need to just kill these movies and push for a show on premium cable.

But I wouldn't mind seeing an Edgar Wright or Joe Cornish Trek movie as long as they get rid of whatever script Orci and Kurtzman cooked up

giving Edgar Wright source material that isn't ripe with comedy* is a waste of his talents. he could direct the fukk out of Star Trek but i don't want him to. the 3rd movie in a blockbuster series is minor league shyt. Can you even make Star Trek funny?


*legitimately don't know if the word is "ripe" or "rife"

Well, it already has Simon Pegg in it in a bit of a comedy relief role. But it would actually be a good opportunity for Wright to show he isn't just a comedy guy.
