As I reported earlier, the studio behind Wolf Man had a few candidates in mind to replace departing director Mark Romanek. They’ve reached a decision, and their choice is… Joe Johnston.
Who? Exactly. Johnston was the auteur behind such modern classics as Hidalgo, Jurassic Park III, and October Sky. I haven’t seen any of those movies, but I’m pretty sure they suck. They’re similar to your mother in that regard.
The cast for the $100 million picture (Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt) is reportedly still in place, but who knows how that’ll turn out. Benicio hasn’t worked with a director this shitty since the mid 90s.
According to IMDB, Johnston got his start working as a storyboard artist for George Lucas, who later got him into USC Film School and paid his tuition. As for myself, my career hit a rough patch right around the time I got caught stirring the boss’ coffee with my dick. It was worth it.

I am fairly certain that it would be impossible for me to care less about this movie, its cast, or the rotating list of directors.
Unless Lisa Rinna gets cast, of course.
Dor sho gha! Maybe the answer of the crapping wolfman will finally be answered!
This guy is cute. Someone saw his profile with some photos on millionairefriends.com, where celebrities and wealthy singles hook up.
See Lance? You need The Mighty One’s help!
However, The Mighty Fek’lhr must give redmund51 credit, that "thumbs up" guy is definitely a Dollar Menunaire.
I am seriously and quite honestly curious about these spam campaigns. Are they actually effective? Why not use better grammar? Who’s paying these idiots to do this? I WANT TO KNOW!
Stoney-Ask Doc Leisa at the other place. She knows a lot about them (seriously).
…
OK, fine, He will say something funny, too: GUy’cha! A Romulan! ROFLKOTAL!
Jurassic Park III is my least favourite movie of all time. When people came into the used DVD store I worked at and went to buy it I would make fun of them to their face. Canadian’s don’t like it when you aggressively attack them with words instead of passively implying that they should be sterilized for buying that monstrosity of a film. "Ummm, do you have a twenty-year-old microwave with a faulty seal? Do you want one? It’d be a good investment for the future. OK, your change $11.18."

Yeah, um, I’m not THAT interested…
According to imDb, he also directed Jumangi and The Rocketeer, which starred Jennifer Connelly’s tits, two movies you might actually have heard of.
Personally, I think he got the job because Sir Anthony Hopkins insisted on a director with experience working with dinosaurs.
The Mighty Fek’lhr is sure Johnston will listen to
Fallout Boy Limp BizkitYanni for Wolfman inspiration.LOL. At one of the other sites I go to Hope wrote this:
oh. so sex. I have saw the photo at millionairefriends.com. Many people are discussing it there.
It was about Abercrombie and Fitch advertisements…
Stinky, that is SO nominated (as soon as we get the thread).
Stoney-You said, and He quotes, "I WANT TO KNOW!" He is giving her your email.
Oh. So sex.
*thump thump* Is this thing on?
BTW did you guys like His picture of Pete Wentz on His blog?
A big hand for Stinky for reminding us all of a young Jennifer Connelly’s tits in The Rocketeer. One of these days i may actually sit down and watch Career Opportunitities too. It doesn’t actually get shown that much on tv, though.
Her tits in Labyrinth were overshadowed by Bowie’s codpiece.
^^^ if you think about that literally it paints quite the mental picture.
Guy’cha! THe Mighty Fek’lhr just
wanked it towatched Labyrinth the other night! Did you know David Bowie did the baby voice/sounds in "Dance Magic"??? ROFLKOTAL!Wow, Joe Johnston huh? I was kind of looking forward to a Wolfman movie that would be done in the tradition of the original. I was looking forward some good suspense, and build up and a little mystery.
But not now. With JJ at the helm he will CG the shit out of the Wolfman, it’ll be like Cursed directed by Corky from Life Goes On.
Technically, Johnston has already made a "wolfman" movie–he directed Robin Williams in Jumanji … cuz Williams is really hairy … like a wolf … heh.
Jumanji was good until the spiders showed up. I don’t like spiders in general, as in I’m scared to see spiders on the television (I’m working on that issue), but those spiders were awful… they looked like they were made of candy. Only diabetics are afraid of candy spiders, sheesh.
These circus peanuts are made from spider sugar … it’s good for the environment–and it doesn’t hurt the spiders!
