I'm just saying that a Wolverine movie holds more promise than an aging Bruce Willis battling cyber-punks. Die Hard 4.0 is already a shitty idea, so it having a shit director isn't exactly skin off anyone's backs. Wolverine actually has some potential, so it getting bungled would be much more of a loss.

First off it was 11 years ago since WITH A VENGEANCE, not a big deal but as usual you're a fountain of inaccuracy.
Second, you're right (don't feel all warm and glowing just yet), the world does not need another DIE HARD film. But it looks as though the people at FOX don't much care what folks on a message board believe and are going to make one anyway. If that's going to happen I'd like it to be done with a director who has some sense of being able to tell an exciting story.
So yeah, I'd rather see an entertaining film about John McClane than one following the pretty much already known story of Wolverine. Maybe once the memory of X3 begins to escape me I'll feel differently, though probably not.
