The directors don't direct the actors on the office? I guess maybe the actors are so in tune with their characters and know the tone of the show so well they don't need it?

As I understand it, there's a fundamental difference between a television director and a film director. While a film director is basically handling the entire scene (with someone as his field marshal), a television director basically gets his shot list completed, since the producer (or, like Star Trek, co-producer Bob Justman) runs the show.

Steadiman, are you at all familiar with the Red Epic? I only ask because apparently Peter Jackson will be shooting the two Hobbit movies on them, and has ordered thirty of them for the production. Is the Epic just a different kind of hardware on the same heavy rig?

The other thinking was that not only was Webb a hot commodity, but this being his first big studio feature, he'd be a lot easier for Sony to control, rather than dealing with Sam Raimi stomping all over the place.

When NBC canceled Law & Order Vanilla, I'm pretty sure every struggling off-Broadway actor screamed "gently caress!" in unison.

Jurassic World was pretty well received by critics, actually.
