• As part of Sony's viral campaign for The Amazing Spider-man there is a new teaser for the movie. It features Captain Stacy as he talks about Spider-man and what he wants people to do if they see him. Check the video out below:
  
• Michael Bay responds to all the hate that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot is getting. He tells fans to calm down and take a breath. He says that his team is working with the original creators of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles story. They are expanding the back story and help make it more complex. I honestly still dont like where this movie is going. Until something happens and they follow the original story, I will not be seeing this movie. Also the working title for the movie is Ninja Turtles.
  
  
• The first set picture from Les Misérables has been released. It shows us what Hugh Jackman will look like as Jean Valjean as he is released from or going into prison. Check it out below:
  
  
  
• Street artist Shepard Fairey and  Imagine Entertainment are teaming up to do a reboot of George Orwell’s 1984. If you dont know who Shepard Fairey is you have defiantly seen his work. He created the famous Barack Obama ‘HOPE’ poster for the 2008 presidential election.
• Just in case you are not hyped for The Avengers movie, Marvel has yet another featurette. Its shows the progression of how The Avengers movie was first talked about up to how it is being made. heck it out below:
  
  I'm ready for the movie now!

5. A Thousand Words

Now for the movie news of the week:

• Robert Rodriguez is planning to film both Sin City 2 and the the sequel to Machete called Machete Kills this summer. He says he will be working on  Machete Kills first then moving to Sin City 2. I don't know if this is a smart move for him. Filming 2 films in one year back to back could make one or both turn out bad. Sin City 2 should be done first then start on Machete Kills next year. That's just my opinion.
  
• Paranormal Activity 4 now has a writer. Zack Estrin who is already attached to ABC's The River as the writer and executive producer. I wonder what will be in store next for the franchise. Paranormal Activity 4 already has a release date for October 19th, 2012.
  
• Jurassic Park will be re released in 3D on July 19, 2013. I wonder if they are going to make changes to this movie too.
  
• Lionsgate and WWE Studios have announced that they will be rebooting the Leprechaun franchise for a 2013 release. Those movies still freak me out.
  
• An update on the live action reboot of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. First of all  Michael Bay is set to produce the film. He also hints about the change that will be made in the Turtle's origin story. In the reboot the turtles will not be mutated by the Ooze, but will be aliens to the us. I cant believe that they came up with this idea as an actual reboot of the movies. Its like changing Superman's origin so that he was born on earth and mutated and become Superman. There is no way that this idea could ever work for me. If anybody has seen the live action movie for the series back in 1990, it was a good movie and is still very good in the sense of the franchise. It has a release date for December 25th, 2013, but as of right now I do not plan on seeing it.
