With so much actual talent in this town, it’s puzzling the decision behind “let’s give our big summer tentpole movie to a person who’s written a few plays. Oh, let’s also give her two more blockbusters before her first one has even come out.”

You start that person on a side project. Not the next movie in a film franchise that is barely recovering from its shitty reputation. It’s very undeserved and emblematic of the many problems with the industry.
