Re: CGI is killing sci-fi
"I think the studios are pandering to directors and letting director take over story writing. I (IMHO) think we need a resurgence of screenwriters who can sort out the bloody story before letting director loose with the CGI whizzbangs."
Yes, a good [screen]writer is a good [screen]writer and a good director is a good director. It's rare for somone to be good at both. The directors job is to interpret and visualise the script/story, not to change it or define it.
