This.

Lucas?



NO.



EMPHATICALLY NO.



The man cannot direct.



Cameron? I'm kind of iffy. I guess with a script not his own he could do it. I hated Avatar but that was due to the story elements rather than direction. I doubt he'd do it.



Blokamp (sp?) the guy who did District 9 would be my pick.



Abrams could do it as well.

That's Cameron for Aliens and Ridley Scott for Alien.

Please no. If it was a Cameron film it'd be about Shepard fighting off the evil conservative corporate oppressors and making love to every tree ever. No thank you.

I'm really iffy on Cameron. Avatar was a visual marvel, but an artistic flop, and Titanic I just hated, even though Terminator and Aliens are some of my favourite movies. The man knows how to make money though - if I were an exec, I'd be gunning for him. But as a film buff, I'd be concerned.

I think the smartest choice would be Neil Blomkamp.

[Mr. California]

yea i agree

Please, the movie was passable at best. It did have good acting, I'll give you that. You want magnificence all around you look at TNG.

Preach it, brother. I still miss that show, especially with those terrible movies they made.

As to the director...there's no denying that Lucas has made good movies (supposedly) and bad ones. I think Cameron has made good movies and bad ones as well. Cameron's movies are popular true...but are they good? A movie like Titanic was very popular, and I found it a gigantic borefest. Of course, what is "good" and what is not...?

As long as the director isn't Uwe Boll, I'll be happy. And if Peter Jackson did it, I could die a happy man.

More like 2 out of 6. Besides you know he'd replace the weapons with walkie-talkies and introduce a cute furry species that would take on the Geth with rocks and sticks.

[InvaderErl]

2 1/2 I'd say.

The Luke/Vader confrontation in RoTJ was still good.

But other than that... UGH.

I would flip something angrily if James Cameron sodomized this film project. He'd probably turn it into a tragic love story with some treehugging and anti-human sentiments to boot.

IMO, it should be about the First Contact War because Turians are bastards.

You are right. RotJ has good moments.

Two were great, one was good (ewoks...), one was passable and two were horrible.

The original Star Wars trilogy was co-written by Lucas along with other authors, the best movie in the Saga was directed by another director (and as far as directing goes, I also prefer RotJ to to ANH).

Plus (it had to be said!) - "Howard the Duck"

So, exactly how suited is Lucas for this?

James Cameron would be perfect. Whether or not you hate "Avatar" as a story, that wouldn't be a problem here, as there's already a great script. And as a director, he's amazing. 

[Vicious]

Seeing as how Shepard is considered an alliance 'marine' I wonder how many Jarhead jokes Cameron would jam into a ME movie.

He went overboard in Avatar, for sure.

(bolded part) great, that way Mass Effect could be as unwatchable as District 9 was!

Id actually prefer Ridley Scott over the names mentioned already!

He has experience in darker Sci Fi and has been doing some very comercial work on giant stages.

Abrams is ok but im not really sure he could do the dark setting and more mature outtings needed in Mass Effect! Besides, Id rather Abrams stick with Star Trek sequels.

Cameron to hung up on his whole eco kick so no thanks there

Lucas doesnt own Mass Effect so doubt hes interested

Because the only reason Avatar was a success was because of the 3-D gimmick. In reality it was Pocahontas in space.

Pocahontas in space is higly inaccurate.  It was much more like "Dances with Wolves".  3D was just an added benefit, the movie itself was great. 

[Iknimaya]

Ergh, the guys who are saying if Cameron directed it he would turn it intro "Tree hugging crap" are so infinitesimally close minded it's beginning to get on my nerves, he has done one film based upon that, believe it for not, Cameron makes good films, you may not like the films that he's made, but can you honestly say that any of his films have been bad?

Also, Avatar is far less than a 3-D gimmick, Blu-ray, on a projector was by far the best cinematic experience I've had in my life. (And I saw it in the IMAX) The clarity of everything was just... Stunning. At that size, everything still looked somehow better quality than my eyes, it was almost unnerving.

One thing I will give you though, is that the storyline of Avatar has been done to death, but the writing was truly superb. That's why, the sequels (if done correctly) could be so much better, he could use a decent storyline, instead of having to use an already familiar one to flesh out the film.

But I digress, James Cameron as a director for the ME movie, well I'm sure the movie could make a lot of money, and no matter you look at it, profit margin is the sign of doing something right, and his films have certainly never been short of that.

The only problem I could see is that he'd probably deviate from the actual storyline of ME, so it depends what you want, a good ME themed film, or an actual ME film.

That's of course, assuming the impossible, and that he takes on this project.

Realistically, I was very impressed by District 9 and the Star Trek movie, so I'd pick either of those directors.

James Cameron is a sycophantic hack.

Move on.

Didn't think about that actually, could take a very interesting turn if done by him.

[LiquidGrape]

My suggestion would still be Kathryn Bigelow.
She's in the prime of her career, she has an impressive back-catalogue of genre cinema, and considering how so many of the prominent characters are female, it might lend more of a gravitas to those parts.

The last thing I want to see is Cameron, Lucas or Spielberg completely abandon the materials inherent qualities in favour of garish spectacle.

I've always though Mass Effect has a bit of resemblance with Minority Report. If he can pull off something similar, or even better, great.

Ridley Scott has recently been churning out almost unwatchable movies (if you're familiar enough with history, at least) but he did direct Blade Runner, didn't he? So, he has my vote too.

And about Cameron... really, people, it's nt like he directed Avatar only. The Terminator, Aliens? T2: Judgment Day? Titanic?
