10 Great Directors Who Should Really Helm A Superhero Movie

1. Rian Johnson

Another list entry, another Breaking Bad director. Rian Johnson is a directorial force to be reckoned with, and is the voice to be watching in Hollywood at the moment. His sci-fi film Looper, starring Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt with a suspicious forehead, was phenomenally reviewed and did bang-up work on Top 10 lists all across the land. You also might recognize his name as the one on the Breaking Bad episode "Ozymandias," one which your Facebook feed most likely called "The Best Ep of TV I have Evar Seen LOL Hands Down!!!" That's all I saw the night this episode aired, and is definitely indicative of something. It says that Johnson is going to be a huge force in the industry very, very soon. It says that he is a talented and wonderful filmmaker who is finally getting his due. And it also says that he would make one kick-ass superhero flick. Like this article? Who would you add?
