Directors that are impossible to get for superhero films

...because they are either TOO BIG

or

their style is TOO DIFFERENT and they don't suit the genre

or

some OTHER REASON...



Yet people always suggest some of them as dream directors for one or two heroes.

Well, here's the chance to once and for all discuss everything related to the matter.



Some examples follow below. It's a combination of the biggest directors around, and the more serious ones, and the cult favorites.

Feel free to make your own list. There is only one rule here: none of your suggestions will ever happen. The chances should be slim or even zero for him/her to agree to helm a superhero adventure.

And if everything changes in the world and our dream actually comes true, the result will either be the best or the worst film ever to be made. That's a risk we'll have to take.
