I watched a recent interview with Landis where he briefly discussed the Twilight Zone incident. He seemed so apathetic and narcissistic that it was almost sickening to me. His arrogance radiated off the tv screen. He clearly felt no remorse for the lives lost because of his negligence. One thing I do know, karma is real and she is undefeated.
Karma isn't real, the most evil person and the most good person both die and get eaten by the same maggots. The only chance for justice is through trial on Earth
In the movie, Vic Morrow's character was a racist bigot who hated anyone who wasn't white and blamed society for putting these individuals over the so called white man. Well he was forced to switch places with a Jewish person during the Holocaust, a black man during the times of the KKK and Jim Crow, scenarios like that. Well the last scene was one of redemption, the scene which never made it to the movie, the scene of which he and two other Asian children died in. His character was trying to save their lives, him having seen the error in his way of thinking. But they still let the story make it to the movie and let him die the villain instead, seeming to deserve his rightly deserved consequences. Idk what kind of man Morrow was, but could they not have just had some respect for the dead and omitted that story altogether considering he and the two children died irl? No, there was money to be made. So yeah, I stick by what I said. There was no empathy or remorse. That's just my opinion. I don't expect everyone to agree with me.
@@wingitprodits funny how john Landis is the hated one in this thing because he never got inside the copter and killed the kids it was the guy who was driving the helicopter

Because it's been 35 years since the first film and Landis hasn't directed a feature since 2010 (long after he was sought after). The studio has no obligation to go with Landis as a director for a legacy sequel.
It stems from an interview Murphy gave to PLAYBOY in 1990 where he and Landis didn't get along on the set of COMING TO AMERICA. In the interview Eddie alleges that he got Landis the directing gig on the aforementioned CTA and was blind sighted when Landis proceeded to act like an ego maniacal ass on set. Eddie says Landis' had an axe to grind when Eddie didn't back him during the TWILIGHT ZONE accident court case. The interview uploaded here appears to be from the press tour for BEVERLY HILLS COP 3 which Landis directed. I can only assume the question was something like, "You two had your troubles together in the past, why are you working with each other now?"
