About a month ago it was announced that Christopher Nolan, who had already revived the Batman saga, was consulting on the Superman franchise. Now the series has actually been assigned a writer. Unfortunately it's David Goyer. If that name doesn't ring familiar in your head then it's probably for the best. He's responsible for such cheesily awful horror thrillers such as The Invisible, The Unborn, and Blade: Trinity. Apart from that he produced the movie Ghost Rider, and wrote the film Jumper.
I know by now that he's not a good writer at all, and was dismayed to hear that he was back in the Batman franchise co-writing the script for the Dark Knight follow up. Why Warner Bros. hasn't already condemned this guy is beyond me. All of their hopes for saving the already flailing Superman series have just died. Now if David Goyer does a good job with this then I'll give him an apology, but don't start waiting for that because it will never happen.
