As much as I adore Tim Burton, and love his genius, I could not see him directing DS. The morbid and freaky factors would go through the roof!
I agree with Miles 23 that my first choices for directors have been a bit too hard core sci-fi. But when I was thinking of directors, I was thinking of people who could slip into the series with a hand at the sci-fi, strange and soapy. As well as people who could probably use a little variety to their resume.
My hubby, the crypytkeeper, thinks I'm nuts when I do my casting for the show. I'm making a spreadsheet of actors I 'd love to see in a new series. He keeps bugging me to get a script written. He's convinced I'd do a great job. (I love putting him on the spot!
)
I can't agree with Chris Carter. I just can't. And I don't know why. Sweetheart, what do you think about John Carpenter? That's an interesting suggestion. But I have been thinking of a series, not a movie. Could he make that transition?
Goddess, the possibilities are endless!
