The Rant This month: SCREW YOU, MARK STEVEN JOHNSON! |
Can somebody please tell me why Hollywood is so blindingly retarded that they keep handing over big budget comic book movies to that fucking sell-out Mark Steven Johnson? I want to have a little chat with the development exec that just a few years ago said you know what? We should get the writer of Jack Frost to do Daredevil. He would be perfect! FUCK YOU, DEVELOPMENT EXEC! YOU RUIN LIVES!
For those of you that arent familiar with his work, Mark Steven Johnson is the guy that ruined such classic comic characters as Daredevil, Elektra and most recently- Ghost Rider on the big screen. The pictures that are handed to him have an approved average budget of $80 million+, with Ghost Rider alone costing over $120 million to make. This makes me want to vomit until the end of time. This man has not shown one tiny fucking shred of talent since Daredevil was handed to him seven years ago. He has no idea what any of these characters are all about and matter of fact, I doubt hes ever cracked open a comic book in his entire life. This man is the King of all posers. Daredevil was wretched down to its very rotten core, Elektra (which he produced) is an abomination to the film and comic world alike, and Ghost Rider is as comical and campy as Rocky Horror Picture Show. This guy doesnt grow as a filmmaker with each project, he shrinks. I will give $100 in cold, hard-earned cash if someone could explain to me what the fuck happened in the last 20 minutes of Ghost Rider (or Elektra for that matter). I dont even think Johnson himself knows. This is why Johnson should suck on my big, fat Johnson.
I beg of all of you, help me stop this madness and put a halt to this mans career once and for all. Everyone needs to boycott Ghost Rider on DVD and pray to the comic Gods every night that Mark Steven Johnson will get cancer and die a slow, painful death. Either that or send him, Tim Story, Jonathan Hensleigh, Shawn Levy and every other talent less director to the Comic-Con where they will be mutilated by flesh-easting fan boys. Screw you, Mark Steven Johnson!
