Should he revolt against them? Be confrontational with Saban?

I think I'm being realistic. One can bury his head in the sand and hope for the best, despite overwhelming evidence that the project is doomed to, at best, mediocrity. It's just... given my feelings about the fucktard who's spearheading it, it's hard for me to give this movie the benefit of the doubt.

And those TV shows you mention? Orci and Kurtzman aren't involved in the storytelling, at least not on a daily basis. Their names were attached to each of those show's pilots as producers... so other creators could get their series picked up in a system that favors those with previous credits, regardless of quality. It's standard operating procedure in the TV biz.

Make no mistake: The assembly of 5-12 writers on each of those TV writing staffs were responsible for those shows being good-- in spite of Bob Orci's tangential involvement.
