The director for Babylon AD claims FOX ruined his movie
FOX also interfered some with the upcoming Wolverine movie
Now they're suing Warner Bros, because they claim they have the rights to make the Watchmen movie. And although their claim does make sense, they waited until now to do so. Just so that WB could spend as much money as possible on the movie.
Now FOX just wants to delay the Watchmen movie as much as possible, or get some producer credit for it, despite the fact that they turned down the movie years ago and didnt even take a chance on it.
I know that you dislike Fox due to this however I think you can express your views in other terms.
"It's pure violence and stupidity," he admits. "The movie is supposed to teach us that the education of our children will mean the future of our planet. All the action scenes had a goal: They were supposed to be driven by either a metaphysical point of view or experience for the characters... instead parts of the movie are like a bad episode of 24."
"I should have chosen a studio that has guts," he says. "Fox was just trying to get a PG-13 movie. I'm ready to go to war against them, but I can't because they don't give a s--t."
FOX also interfered some with the upcoming Wolverine movie
There was/is a huge Wolverine set being recently used. I'm not even sure which lot it was built on, but the look or mood of the set is, according to a source who was told Hood's view of things, supposed to be on the dark, dinghy and somber side. I only know what I was told, but the basics are that Hood was away from the set for whatever reason (shooting something else, taking a day or two off), and when he returned to the big somber set he was shocked to find that it had been repainted top to bottom on Rothman's orders. The murky-scuzzy vibe was gone, and a brighter and less downish look had taken its place.
