So I've heard that Toshiki Inoue is writing the film and Osamu Kaneda is directing it. This is what I've heard on twitter so take it with a grain of salt.

I'll gladly take Toshiki Inoue.

You know what, so will I if the alternative is another damn Yonemura film. This is where those movies have me now: actually wishing Toshiki Inoue is in charge instead. :(

It's Inoue and Kaneda.
Inoue being Igami Masaru's son has experience working with the old showa staff while helping dad to copy scripts at home. (mentioned in the book about his dad)
Kaneda involved in filming action scenes ever since the original series.
Fujioka thinks it is a big deal working with the remaining original staff in this movie. (mentioned many times in his blog)

That's good to hear. I think they will put together a much better movie than the last few Super Hero Taisens here. I'm glad Inoue is back for this.

So it is indeed Inoue. Could turn out good or turn out awful. Hard to say since he was away from the franchise for quite some time now.

A spring Rider movie without Shoji Yonemura?! It seems like Toei made a smart move for once. Either way, this movie still could be awful, but I want to keep a open mind for once.

The villains are still Shocker. Maybe Inoue can make them less annoying?

It's not Yonemura? Sold. Fucking, field trip to Japan, let's go see the Kamen Rider movie, y'all.

It's Inoue; it's not going to be good. But at least it might not be the one damn plot that Yonemura knows. Expect a large amount of time wasted on entirely irrelevant fluff, though.
