i think i'd rather just be suprised... If Speilberg doesn't direct this, then who cares, cause it'll just wind up being another JP3

Thanks Tryrannis. That makes what, 3,4 people. I should and will do this every year. Not this exact one though.

Okay, why do people act like Steven Spielberg did everything himself? I hate the fact that directors get sooo much credit for doing so little. I understand that in horror/suspense films directing can have a larger effect than in some other genres, but I feel like if a film is poorly written that it doesn't matter who directs it ,I still won't like it. Like in Jurassic Park 3, I thought it was a decent film, not horrible but not that bad either. I'd give it 5/10, the main problem was that the writers Peter Buchman, Alexander Payne, and Jim Taylor made it too predictable. Everyone wants to throw the blame on Joe Johnston and call him a terrible director, well it wasn't all his fault. I read parts of the Jurassic Park 3 script. They specifically wrote in all those day sequences. Also, in the draft that I read there were a few stupid sequences that would have really pissed people off. Now I think that all the day sequences hurt it even more so than the predictability, if you see a dinosaur in bright lighting for an hour and a half it quickly loses it's intimidating presence. You hear noises from a dinosaur in a dark jungle it creates alot of tention. Okay I just feel directors are a little over-credited because they mainly just choose the angles and give the actors guide lines on what they want from them in a scene. I think what really made this movie was the great story Micheal Crichton provided them to work with and David Koepp's great skills at adapting screenplays.
