Yeah, me too. The trailer is amazing, IMO, and before this report was released, I was more excited for R1 than Epi 8.

Holy Freaking Shit!
When the movie began filming there was a lot of talk that the budget had been greatly reduced slightly before shooting meaning, more CGI would be needed. Now it looks like the movie is going to cost what it was supposed to cost from the start. The quality of the film wasn’t bad, it just needs to be better and all involved are happy to make that happen. |

Jesus 40 percent. That doesn't sound promising. Is everyone really going to give their best performance the second time around?

That's really promising. McQuarrie has been involved with some great films!

It really sounds like they rushed into this thing. They've had so many people work on the script and instead of waiting to shoot, they finished a film without the final screenwriter's completed script?
John Knoll created the concept, Gary Whitta was the original screenwriter and was replaced by Chris Weitz because Whitta's script didn't work. So they shoot Weitz version while McQuarrie was writing another version? What a disaster. |

It's going to be curious how well the previous footage meshes with the footage shot by Gareth Edwards and the footage shot by Christopher McQuarrie. The film has A-list talent galore and McQuarrie has been phenomenal as of late, so I'm guessing it'll be really great, but it sure didn't need to be this difficult. This report is way beyond the scope of anything that I had heard. I guess they wanted to keep a lid on it but that clearly wasn't possible. 40 freakin' percent. |

Now it's out there that Scott Z. Burns (The Bourne Ultimatum) did a pass after Chris Weitz. So that's four screenwriters associated with R1.
Crazy. |

Man that sucks.
But I'll reserve judgement. There have been 'troubled' films before that turned out good. Miracles do happen sometimes

Reshooting 40% of a movie that's out in 6 months? What could possibly go wrong...

We get a possible window into this...

Could be legit, could be code for "I don't want to have to fight a studio after they were the ones screwing the pooch about shooting schedules, budgets, the script and the like, and I don't want to have to re-shoot almost half a ****ing movie again." |
