Collider reports that Pierce Brosnan (Goldeneye, November Man) is teaming up with director John Moore (Max Payne) for an upcoming action flick titled I.T., which is about a publisher (Brosnan) who is tormented, via technology, when his relationship with a young I.T. consultant goes south.
Without getting too much into a bitchy rant, Moore is one of the worst – if not THE worst – filmmakers working today. He managed to ruin (understatement!) the tail end of one of the greatest, most consistent action franchises of all time with A Good Day To Die Hard (2013), a film I describe as soulless, bland, idiotic and an embarrassment to Bruce Willis’ career (I’ll easily sit through any of Willis’ recent straight-to-DVD titles over it any day!).
Can someone tell me why Moore gets work, while a talent like Mel Gibson (Braveheart) is still blacklisted from Hollywood? If you want to talk about “sin” or “disrespect,” watch A Good Day To Die Hard. Stay tuned for more updates regarding I.T. (too bad it’ll be train wreck).
Would you say he’s worse than Uwe Boll?
I know the majority of Uwe’s filmography has gotten a bad wrap, but I’ll tell you this: Postal, Rampage and Assault on Wall Street are all terrific films. Especially Rampage. Seriously, give it a shot, man. Rampage 2 is coming out soon… looking forward to it! So, to answer your question, Yes. Like I said, Moore is the worst filmmaker in the world.
I’ll check ’em out =D
Considering the way that Uwe ruins video games by making movies of them, I can say the Dungeon Siege movie was decent. However, you have every right to say that John Moore is the worst filmmaker ever.
I won’t watch anything that he directs…….Not after he decided to neuter John McClane.
Hate to say it, but Mel gets blacklisted, ‘cus even if he was forgiven by the public for his drunken comments, he’s no longer a draw. He’s supposedly one of the few positives of Expendables 3, but it seems his name wasn’t enough to help its box office. Hell, I totally thought the new Mad Max would be terrible without him, but it seems that’s not the case.
Maybe Pierce Brosnan should reunite with his former “Remington Steele” costar Stephanie Zimbalist for a project of some kind. As for Bruce Willis, perhaps he should consider a return to the small screen at this point. After all, it was a TV series (namely “Moonlighting”) that made him a star in the first place. Then again, how high is his established price these days?
