[Movies] Bryan Singer Interested In More X-Men Posted by Larry Csonka on 10.12.2009
So he says…
- Bryan Singer was at South Korea's Pusan International Film Festival, and discussed a possible return to the X-Men franchise. Here is what he had to say…
On Returning To The Franchise: "I'm still looking to possibly returning to the 'X-Men' franchise. I've been talking to Fox about it. I love Hugh Jackman. I love the cast."
On What He Likes About Working With The Franchise: "[To] trick audiences into thinking they're seeing fireworks, but they're learning about themselves and listening to what I have to say. The excitement about working in science fiction and fantasy is — the stories, if they are good, are about the human condition."
Coming back to Fox with his tail between his legs. Superman wasn't the big flick he thought it would be, so now he wants X-Men back. How convenient.

Bryan made the worst career move when he left FOX doing the X-Men movies to go to Warner and make the bad Superman movie.

Thanks, but no thanks. You had your chance with the franchise, and the results werent that impressive IMHO.

Tail between his legs or not, I'm all for this. The first two X-Men flicks were incredible. Please come back and save the franchise.

X4 - More hallway walking than X2 with three times the less power usage.
Hey Bryan... how about we have Magneto grab the metal balls to fly like you originally wanted him to.

"X4 - More hallway walking than X2 with three times the less power usage."
Good Lord, the fail--it hurts!
I'm going to go ahead and assume your crappy joke was supposed to read "a third of the power usage," instead of "three times the less."
Idiot.

For those who said he ruined the franchise, he only did 1 and II, he had nothing to do with the cluster known as 3.....
2 was the best of the series, 1 was done on a limited budget... I say bring him back!

NOOOO! His X-Men films were a disaster. He left the franchise in shambles and in SERIOUS need of a re-boot.

WHAT. Do you think X3 and Origins were good or better than the first two? Are you kidding me? I hope he does come back and gets Hayter back to write. But I doubt it, as seriously bad as X-Men 3 was (and oh my was it some terrible story telling) it was still the most financially successful, and that's all the studios care about.
