Had I been listening to Howard Stern instead of my stupid punk rock during my workout this morning (I have the portable Sirius Stiletto 2) I might have caught this. As it is, I didn't! Slashfilm reports on Jason Reitman turning down the offer to direct the $150 million budgeted Justice League movie. As far as the script goes:
“Good, FINE… You know, I mean. I had to sign something, they send me the script and it comes on this spy paper which cant be xeroxed,” revealed Jason Reitman. “They have a time when I have to have the script back to them and the script is fine and I could be spending…” Jason later continued: “What am I going to do with Justice League of America? So Basically I’ll make a movie that is not as good as X-Men, then I’ll be the guy who made a movie not as good as X-Men. Where just like you talking about, going to smaller stations, if I make another small movie, and it’s really good, it performs well…” “Right now I’m thought of as a particular type of director. I’ve got an oscar nomination. I’ve made two indie films that play film festivals that are considered thoughtful. I want to stay in that world, I like making those type of films.”
If you read between the lines, I think he's saying this movie will be ass. So far, Justice League is turning out to be the fucking plague of Hollywood. Scrap it already.
