I don’t think this movie is a good Idea .If he wants to make a good Xmen Movie then go back into the comic books and look for the time when storm became brainwashed an turned against her friends and caused alot of damage in the whole world.Make that into a movie more action .

Great news. Schwartz is one of the brightest minds in Hollywood. Chuck and Gossip Girl are probably the two best shows on Network Television. With Schwartz I think we will get a script that has a lot more depth and subtlety than the past two X-Men movies.

“Working on the screenplay’ doesn’t equal ‘currently in production’.

We can start our griping if and when that happens.
FYI - I’ll be the first.

I don’t know. I don’t watch any of the crap this guy has done. Not saying that i don’t watch it because he does it. None of these shows have just ever fit into my TV schedule.

I’ll give him it a chance just like I have every comic movie. After we’ve all seen it, that’s when the fun discussion begins.

I have to say Schwartz can definitely make this work. I hate teen shows and they usually ride on a boring template. But I have every season of The OC and though i won’t call it groundbreaking, it does have great stories that a lot of other shows never really grasped or handled poorly. If you watch the 3 first shows of season 4, you will see why Schwartz will work for adapting any X story. I think sometimes people want TV to be like William Shakespeare sometimes. Whats wrong with good mindless fun. Nothing.

umm…why not make X-men 4…with a bighitter screenwrite and director and fix all the crap from X3…with good actors and a good story..

is that like an out-of-the-box idea? it seems RETARDedly simple to me? I should take over the jobs of all the extremely stupid executives making these decisions.

Never have seen gossip girls, but the OC was a terrible hack, melodrama. We should all be concerned.

Josh Schwartz knows comic books. When he was still doing The OC there were tons of comic book references all the time… ANd he knew what he was talking about. The OC is my favorite show all the time with its brilliant writing and filming. Also Gossip Girl is a great show! This guy is on the rise and just needs one superb movie project to get his career really moving

Schwartz did not create Gossip Girl. It was a series of books which he then turned into a tv show and which he now produces. However, he also did the OC and does Chuck. The OC was funny, had good drama, and had tons of comic book references, even some X-Men ones. Chuck is a nice blend of comedy and action as well. I think he’s a great writer and could make a kick-ass movie. It will be hard to be worse than Ratner’s movie.

He may have created Gossip Girls, but he also created Chuck which is a big geek show and one of the best new series of the season. I think it will be an interesting take on X-Men. Good spin off idea I think.

The O.C. had a crap ton of comic book references, so he’s worked around people that were into comics, is into them himself, and I’m sure he knows about his subject matter. We’ll see what happens.

I like it! The Xavier Institute has always been chock full of interpersonal drama, and few people are better at teen angst than Josh Schwartz. Its true The OC went downhill pretty quickly, but in Season One it was actually a pretty good show– clever, heartfelt, and just cheesy enough. I’d totally watch this movie.

let’s hope that someday, all the people he trashed are lucky enough to make something as great and dignified as chuck and the oc.
