ROLAND EMMERICH, whose disaster movie 2012 erupts on to the big screen on November 13, has revealed he finds superhero movies boring and has rejected every offer to direct a comic book adaptation.

Emmerich, whose other credits include Godzilla, The Day After Tomorrow, Independence Day and Stargate, admitted he was "a little worried" about the culture of remakes and adaptations.

He said: "I don't know how many more superheroes they can pull out of their hat. I hate superheroes.

"I always say no to every one that I get offered because I feel that it's boring. But they seem to be successful for some of the people.

"Some of them do [make money], some don't. But they make more money than they lose so they keep making them, and when one works then they have a franchise."

Speaking in Sci Fi Now magazine, he continued: "It's very unimaginative. I'm a total fan of people like James Cameron who just does what he wants. I just like people who have their own voice."

He thinks superheroes are boring and unimaginative and he thinks his type of movies like disaster movies are actually good, better, and exciting? That is so arrogant, ignorant, bias, and naive. Apparently he never has pick up a comic book in his life.
