There are two that come immediately to mind. I’ve always been a massive X-Men fan. I would love to play in the X-Men sandbox. I collected X-Men comics religiously. I literally had 200 X-Men in a row, from 150 to 350. I collected first appearances. I have X-Factor #1. I have X-Force #1 like 10 times. I’m that guy. I just love that world so much. I had Stan Lee autograph the first X-Men comic I ever owned… Now, obviously, that the Star Wars universe has been reopened, I think every filmmaker around my age grew up with Star Wars. Return of the Jedi was the first movie I saw in theaters. To have grown up with it like that, you’d have to be insane to not want to play in that sandbox. – San Andreas director Brad Peyton talks about dream projects
