A ray of hope
From the rumor mill:
*George Miller might be directing MAN OF STEEL 2. This juicy tidbit - still a rumor unconfirmed by either DC or Warner Bros. - comes from Jon Schnepp, director of the documentary THE DEATH OF SUPERMAN LIVES, and was made on this week's Popcorn Talk podcast ... Schnepp seems pretty positive this is a done deal.
I absolutely loved Mad Max: Fury Road, so this is great news. While the storytelling was sparse and far-between, the film still managed to offer up a competent and effective storyform. Far more than Man of Steel did (from what I hear, the first film's narrative was broken).
Spoke a bit about the storyform for Mad Max: Fury Road on Discuss Dramatica a couple of months back. Still need to write the official analysis.
