What !? Isn't that a huge waste of talent for such a braindead franchise?
Fincher's filmography is mostly well made schlock. How is this movie going to be any different?

Let's face it, his last project that wasn't simply a command from a studio was Benjamin Button. Since then he's basically a mercenary, taking money for big studio projects.
Didn't Benjamin Button spend a decade in development hell under many different directors, and he wound up being the one guy willing to say yes after all that? It's hard to see any kind of real passion there for the material beyond the visual effects work.
Gone Girl, House of Cards and Mindhunter were "big studio projects"? They seem pretty much in-line with the rest of his filmography in terms of scale and tone.

Sigh...... Will this one be good? I really hope this is good......
I said mostly. Seven and Gone Girl are exactly b-movie material. Fight Club is put on a pedestal because people think Palahniuk's Gender Studies 101 musings are interesting.This is wildly underselling Fincher's output and genre films in general. Just because he strays towards genre/high concept films over straight dramas doesn't mean they're not filled to the brim with substance and thoughtfulness. These are not high production-valhe b-films.
Seven, Fight Club, Zodiac, The Social Network and Gone Girl are all endlessly fascinating films with heaps going on beyond their immediate craft.
This is the dumbest shit I've read in a while.Let's face it, his last project that wasn't simply a command from a studio was Benjamin Button. Since then he's basically a mercenary, taking money for big studio projects.

Huh. So this is actually happening. Fincher might actually be making a tentpole PG13 film.
Colour me surprised.
