Lowered expectations...

I can see why they picked Jonah Hex. This movie will be marketed as a western and not a comic book movie. The cast looks great on paper.

If you look at his other credits it's because he was a Pixar animator for all of the big hits, that just shows you he was really good at what he did. I'm gonna wait until I see set photos or a trailer before I make any statements. Brolin and the rest of the casting is fantastic. Here's Jimmy Hayward's animation credits:

Finding Nemo (2003) (animator)
Monsters, Inc. (2001) (animator)
Toy Story 2 (1999) (animator)
A Bug's Life (1998) (additional animator)
Toy Story (1995) (animator)

if you want to make a serious Jonah Hex movie you need to keep cgi at a bare minimum or remove it altogether. having a guy whose entire career is based in animation direct it is asking for trouble.

I hope he surprises me

I would imagine like all movies now, they will use CGI and give him that GOD AWFUL Two-Face Dark Knight CGI look that for me ruined Aaron's scenes. I pray they use a great makeup artist for his deformities.
