This news rather confuses me. While I trust Marvel to want to provide a good Cap movie, this is not a director that exactly makes me confident. While he does have a bit of geek cred, directing The Rocketeer, his other movies include my personal nightmare Jumanji, Jurassic Park 3, and serving as a storyboarder and model maker. Is this really the best guy they could get for what I personally think could be their best movie?
I agree, not a great track record, but the failure of some of those movies you mentioned lies more in script than direction. Let’s just hope Marvel gets it all sorted.
I didn’t exactly love the choice of John Favreau at the time either.
