Brett Ratner Abandons "God of War"

Posted: February 18th, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
Brett Ratner Abandons God of WarSubmit Comment
Back in October, director Brett Ratner (Rush Hour, X-Men 3) revealed that one of the projects he is working on is a big screen adaptation of "God of War." Fan response to the news was not positive, which is why you'll be happy to hear that Ratner is no longer pursuing the film.

According to Production Weekly: "Over at Universal it looks like Brett Ratner has shelved 'God Of War,' and is moving forward on 'Trump Heist' with Eddie Murphy and Chris Tucker."

"Trump Heist" is a film about a group of employees who rob the rich residents of Manhattan's Trump Tower.

The movie is already off to a great start if Hackner bailed. Success!

See Trump Heist is more suited to Ratner's "talents".

Now he's doing what he does best, making African American humor. Ratner just disappear already you're pop disposable culture trash.

"what you twinkies fail to realize is tthat its not ratners fault xmen sucked. it was the script. it wasnt good enough. if they had a better script he could have pulled it off" I don't know if you're comment is serious or mocking, but I stand bby the fact Ratner is just an underachiever who takes on stupid films or bad scripts or both. And the people on here know Ratner didn't write the script. They don't care because they have to have someone, anyone, to hate. They can't spread it around like me.

Zack Snyder is the new movie god, with what? 300 as evidence? Ughh. Way too many comic book nerd fanboys and stoners on the Internet these days. They haven't even seen Watchmen, and already they want to blow the guy. Just for the record, the Watchmen graphic novel, IMO, just ain't that damned great. Has some of the WORST dialogue I've ver seen in a comic book/graphic novel. Everyone sounds the same and the lines are written as if they're getting delivered by an actor giving a short monologue. Even the premise isn't very interesting.

minkowski, I think its safe to say you dont like movies at all because all you do is bitch about them or the directors. Everyone will agree, all you ever rant on & on about is how stupid it comes off to you. I highly doubt you could do any better espec. in terms of Zack Synder because he's fucking amazing and if you think you could do better then fucking do it or shut the fuck up!

How quickly this guy has fallen. And it wasn't even X3 that killed him, it was Rush Hour 3 that did it. Red Dragon wasn't bad, but people are now realizing he's just an untalented slob who got lucky. He's pretty much the movie equivalent of Billy Joel.

HA HA HA!! This shmuck is working on YET ANOTHER Chris Tucker vehicle. FAIL. Throw in Eddie "I haven't been funny in over 20 years" Murphy and you've got an even more guaranteed box office bomb. Why do they give this man work?
