Brett Ratner Not Allowed to Make "Guitar Hero" MoviePosted: September 12th, 2008 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
|
  About two weeks ago, director Brett Ratner (Rush Hour) revealed that he would be interested in making a movie based on the "Guitar Hero" video game. "I love 'Guitar Hero' and I think it's a part of pop culture," he said. "I would love to do a 'Guitar Hero' movie, if Activision would ever let me."
Well, Activision is not letting him. "I'd really like to do it, but they're not letting me," Ratner now tells EW. "I expressed my interest, but because it's such a success, it's like now there's no reason to make a movie about it."
He is a little upset by the setback, but is not giving up hope. "I might prevail," said Ratner. "I usually do."
Does anyone actually want to see a "Guitar Hero" movie directed by Ratner? Here is how he described the potential plot: "It could be about a kid from a small town who dreams of being a rock star and he wins the 'Guitar Hero' competition. One of these dreams-[come-true] kind of concepts."

Agreed with the two up the top. I have visions of how he almost killed the X-Men franchise when I look at him. And a guitar hero movie would suck. No I would not like to see it.

Will someone please tell me how Bret Ratner nearly killed the X-Men franchise? I mean, other than little fanboys, who the heck cares about X-Men? It seems to me everybody hates Ratner because of X-Men 3. Is that so?
I thought the third film was the only film of the whole stale, dry and boring trilogy worth watching. At least I didn't have to suffer through more of Stewart's Prof X bloviating just to get to a lackluster and wooden action scene. And this Bryan Singer guy. . .isn't he the fool that ruined Superman? Along with the twit scriptwriter of course. I mean, WB is looking at a reboot because Singer did such a smashup job with old Supes, right?
IMDB shows a 7.4 rating for the first X-Men, and a 7.0 for the third. Why is that the situation if the third film stinks as bad as the fanboys claim?
I'm no friend of Ratner, but I think hating the man just because he ruined a bunch of nerd's dreams about how the trilogy should end is a ridiculous and sad-assed method of determining this guy's cinematic merit. Get over it. X-Men is passe and past tense.

Ratner is a franchising killing whore or milking bore. He's the one thing that Steven has done, given that he gave this talker a break in movies, that I won't ever fogive. Ok that and the Tarzanish scene in Indy & editing out the guns in E.T.... Why, why, why?
