I hope they don't pick a director for convenience. _________________ Where sky and water meet, Where the waves grow sweet, Doubt not, Reepicheep, To find all you seek, There is the utter east.

There's so much pressure (I mean, it's Star Wars: Episode VII, the film that was never supposed to happen), and we're not the most forgiving or rewarding of fanbases. _________________ Where sky and water meet, Where the waves grow sweet, Doubt not, Reepicheep, To find all you seek, There is the utter east.

Abrams turned it down for those reasons (partially). He wasn't a prequel fan and didn't want to touch the franchise with a ten foot pole. We used to be a great fanbase, now Star Wars fans are renowned for being vicious and defensive of what we have. We don't mind new things as long as they don't damage old things, and now with the new direction they're taking this directors are looking at it like it'll give them cancer. _________________ Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice.

Plus, y' know, the whole Star Trek thing... And on the whole director thing, I called it on day one that it would be Jon Favreau, and since he's the only one I know of who admitted that he was actively seeking to do it, I still hold my prediction. Iron Man (at least the first one) had a lot of Star Wars flair to it, and Favreau's a Star Wars fan himself. If he gets it, I'm confident SWVII would be in good hands. _________________

Same with Joss Whedon and Marvel, they're both too busy with their own franchises. _________________ "But it was so artistically done." “No. I am Ganner. This threshold is mine.

I think that's one of the reasons he stepped down for Iron Man 3. _________________

Source? if Marvel was such a problem, why were Thor, Captain America, and Avengers all so excellent? EDIT: I liked Iron Man 2 as well. It's just my least favourite of the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. _________________ It was the year of fire… the year of destruction… the year we took back what was ours.
