Johnston Once Attached to JP4?

Puppet Yoda doing his stuff in Attack of the Clones. Now that would be interesting (if they could do it!)

I think you guys got a bit off-topic. This is about Joe Johnston's involvement in Jurassic Park 4.

Yeah, we did. But that always happens.

As far as I'm concerned Joe Johnston isn't as bad of a director as JP fans make him out to be. He did the best he could with JP3. The film had a horrible script, so it's not entirely his fault. The writers are just as responsible, if not more responsible than Joe Johnston for the way JP3 turned out. Universal Studios was at fault too for hiring writers that had never done an action movie. Though many of you don't care, Johnston has done some good films. Films like "October Sky", "The Rocketeer", and "Honey I Shrunk The Kids" proves that he does have some talent. It's just a shame that no one acknowledges any other film he's done besides JP3.

I liked Hidalgo...

Now there (and returning on the real topic here /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> ), i must say they shouldn't have made CGI cheetahs.

Good effort, but not good enough to make it look real.

JP3 was far from realistic, the plot being it's number one flaw.

yeah they should have gone to the island as maximun a week after Eric's dissapearance.

Surviving a month in 'TLW'? Even we couldnt, and we are dino nerds /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

I agree, but I don't want to start babble about it. We don't want to give people an image that we are bashing the film yet again. Those flaws are already obvious.

Who said it was realistic? I was defending Johnston, not JP3.

I know you did. Johnston can be a good director with some of his films but JP3 was the biggest mess up of his career. So I wouldn't say that we're missing anything if he doesn't direct the fourth one.

You have a point there *takes foot of Joe* O dear, I crushed him! I guess I was so angry and dissatisfied with how JP3 turned out, I started hating the person who directed it. It is as much the script writers fault really. Those b@stards.
