brett Ratner is a tool.

MTV: You got onboard late in the development process. What input did you have into the script? Did you say, "I want more of this character," or, "I want a scene in this location"?

Ratner: I did not change the plot of the film. ... Two of my other movies, I came into the project [while it was already in development]. Directors are, in my opinion, the auteurs of the movie. Not that writers aren't important, but that's why it's a Brett Ratner film and not a Zak Penn or a Simon Kinberg film. That's why it's a Bryan Singer film. I'm the most collaborative person with the writers. I actually had Simon and Zak there the whole time I was making the movie. They're the biggest "X-Men" fans in the world, so, you know, I'm not taking anything away from them. But what I'm saying is the script is not the movie. The movie's the movie. Where I put the camera, how I block the scene, the tone of the scene -- but I did stay very true not only to the first two movies but to the comic books.

what a fucking jack ass. so you're saying that you put the camera where you want to, not the DP? and that you block the scene not the DP? brett ratner is a douche bag, for down playing the importance of the people that wrote the fucking script. The script is the foundation fora a movie and if you have a shitty one nothing can help it. period. come fucking on. a good script and a bad director can make a great movie, look at true romance, has tony scott done anything that rad since, nope, and what is good about that movie anydamn way, the script from tarintino. so what fucking ever ratner suck a horse cock, maybe that will shut you up.
