It is been revealed with JJ directing the next star wars movie he might produce it but with paramount unwilling to wait another 4 years it is unlikely to direct. So there have been rumors that Joe Cornish or Edgar Wright could direct but now it is only rumors. Also theres a new interview from orci on trek web where he says that he may leave if someone better comes along so it could hapend that we could get a new director and writing staff for star trek 3. So what does everyone think about egdar wreight being the director or orci dropping out?
new creative team for star trek 3
- Thread starter tmosler
- Start date
While there is a pretty good possibility that Abrams himself won't be involved (at least not as director), Trek XIII will still be a Bad Robot production and therefore someone of his production team will still be overseeing it.
The interview doesn't indicate that Orci has any intention of stepping away from Trek, of course. Most likely the script will have been largely developed by the time Bad Robot and Paramount agree on a director for ST 3 - probably by Orci, Kurtzman and Lindelof.
It is customary for the thread-starter to provide links to the articles or sources being referenced, and to quote pertinent passages therefrom, if appropriate. Without those, your opening post is lacking in substance; there's little more than a jumble of "It is[sic] been revealed" and "So there have been rumors" to go on.
When it is, it's often because the guy next door takes care of his lawn.
Or he has a septic tank or a big dog.
Joe Cornish? I just looked up his resume on Wikipedia. He doesn't seem to have a lot of experience with big budget Hollywood movies. In fact, apart from the script for The Adventures of Tintin, with Steven Moffat, a while back, his CV is mostly comedy.
In the UK we know Joe Cornish as the public schoolboy partner of Adam Buxton in an odd assortment of childish, lewd or just plain weird comedy shows, often including nods to geeky fan favourites. Not the sort of idiot you'd let anywhere a major movie, yet decent low budget productions such as Attack The Block have got him involved in writing the Antman script for Marvel, and now...Trek ?
I think he'd have more of a feel for it than JJ and MAYBE take Trek III a little way back towards old style Trek - I would certainly prefer him to JJ.
Still, my gut reaction remains 'Joe - from Adam and Joe ? WTF ?'

I fear we'll hear 50 more candidate names until they decide what to do.
I won't start worrying about it yet.

Why "worry" at all? Just enjoy the ride. I think I get as much fun out of a "bad" ST movie on opening night as I do from a "great" one, and even if I think a particular movie is "bad", plenty of others think it's "good", and vice versa.
If ST can recover from "Plato's Stepchildren", "ST V: The Final Frontier", "Shades of Grey", "Threshold" and "Star Trek Nemesis", it can recover from anything.
Spielberg?
Well, I didn't mean really really worry.
More like worry as in start thinking & talking about it. I probably didn't pick the right word.
Hell, I haven't even managed to watch STID yet.
Joe Cornish isn't going to get the job.
