Sandman: action-packed with no punching

Indeed, in so many words this is what JGL has to say about the difference between Sandman and other comic book movies comes down to that.
"Big spectacular action movies are generally about crime fighters fighting crime and blowing sh-t up. This has nothing to do with that".
And he continues: "And it was actually one of the things that Neil Gaiman said to me, he said "˜Don't have any punching.' Because he never does. If you read the comics, Morpheus doesn't punch anybody. That's not what he does".
In brief, "It's going to be like a grand spectacular action film, but that relies on none of those same old ordinary clichés. So, that's why it's taking a lot time to write, but it's going to be really good".
