About A Boy, IMO, is an awesome film. He also directed American Pie, so maybe there will be some wry humor in the script as well, wink-wink.
I know most people are going to see the Twilight thing and be worried about that, but beyond the calming effect all his other successes should have (which you've pointed out), there's also this:

The Twilight saga is a giant piece of shit. Stephanie Meyer's writing is incredibly derivative and shallow. The characters are very thin, even the primary ones.

But Weitz drastically improved the source material he had to work with. The movie is much better storytelling than the book it is based upon, and that's because of the screenplay.

The point I was making was not actually about the writers. I hope the change in writer at this late date (much like with Ant Man) is not indicative of some kind of growing creative rift between Disney and Edwards, similar to what led to Edgar Wright leaving.

Writers change all the time. What concerns me is someone coming in this late to do another pass (since I doubt he's doing a complete rewrite). Hopefully it's nothing.

Oh, I see. I have a feeling it's due to the shift in tone created by Abrams' dismissal of Arndt and footage of Episode VII.

Gotcha. The whole Edgar Wright thing is odd to me. He'd been working on Ant Man with Marvel since like 2007-2008. After more than seven years, they have a script, a solid cast and poof! Wright is gone.

They knew he made somewhat quirky, humorous films and suddenly, they change gears, with Adam McKay and Paul Rudd re-writing the entire script?

Strange, indeed.

First teaser of that movie didn't exactly fill me with anticipation, either.

Rumor is that maslany got the lead role in Edwards' spin off.

Release year's confirmed for the rest of the trilogy, too:

Force Awakens 2015
Edwards 2016
Episode 8 2017
(Trank spinoff possible 2018)
Episode 9 2019

The holdup on Trank's announcement must be the script. Unless they've decided to completely switch gears, Ewan McGregor has already said he's on board.

It's what I've been alluding to for months but the delay in an announcement has me concerned, so I figured I'd finally say it.

"First up, they are not talking about an Obi-Wan spin-off movie but a trilogy of Obi-Wan movies. I need to stress that these movies are not connected. They aren't part of a story arc but 3 separate Obi-Wan adventures set between Episodes III and IV."
Quote:
"It seems like the 3 movie ideas are as follows:

One set completely on Tatooine and two where Obi-Wan travels elsewhere in the Galaxy.

Qui-Gon Jinn is very much present in these stories. So too is Owen Lars. Several characters from the Clone Wars T.V show would make an appearance. There would be flashbacks to Obi-Wan fighting in the Clone Wars."

Both, IMO, would benefit from the trilogy treatment.

Are they going to tap a new actor for Obi Wan? Probably, but would prefer Ewan.
