Miller's a hack. I'd rather MoS 2 never happen if he'll direct it.

No he's an excellent director.

He did well on the Mad Max movies, Twilight Zone Movie and others, he's a talent.

Miller would be a huge get for a superhero film, and I'm sure a Superman film by him would be terrific - but I'd rather he make more Mad Max films, and that seems what he's aiming for!

Ditto and ditto.

It would be interesting to get an answer to that. There's a very short list of directors that have shown to have such a mastery of action cinema.

I think George Miller would've made a good Superman movie. Much better than the one Bryan Singer made. I agree that a lot of Superman's greatest conflicts have been internal in nature. He's an icon in that he represents an ideal. And it's hard to build a story around an ideal, but it can be done. Superman has endured for decades because of those stories. I think Man of Steel did a good job of telling such a story and I hope Dawn of Justice does the same.

Yes, it would. I'm waiting for an answer.

Ain't that the truth.

LOL what

It's a shame he's not doing the Superman movie but I can understand his reasoning. He would knock it (or pretty much any big action comic property) out of the park. His Justice League script may have been a little ambitious for it's time but it would have probably been a massive movie.

[ImprobableQuestion]

He seems to be of the same school of thought as the DCAU crew with how to write Superman, which is awesome.

Last week Miller "denied" he was involved with the future Superman movies. This week he's talking about how he would approach Superman in a movie. A movie that he is allegedly, not making. Hmmm

Breaking News: Director Asked Question, Gives Answer.

In the interview he's asked about doing the next Superman movie, which he says he turned down. He is then asked a question about the JLA movie he was working on, and the question of Superman come up again after that.

The Captain America movies have been more Superman than the Snyder Superman.
