One thing’s for sure and that he’s absolutely capable of making good movies with an understanding of CGI mechanics, so hopefully…
I think both Dawn of the Dead and 300 are reasons to cut him some slack. They don’t have profound plots, themes or messages, but the storytelling and pacing are rock solid. Games are a different medium so he still has to prove he understands it, and all kinds of production issues could still sink the projects into mediocrity, but I have some faith in his judgment.
Yeah, honestly. I’ll never understand why some companies feel the need to pay exorbitant costs to hire some guy who may or may not be a good designer instead of promoting from within.
