MOVIE OVERLOAD!!!

As always, the Weekend Box Office results:
  1. Dr. Seuss' The Lorax
  2. John Carter
  3. Project X
  4. Silent House
  5. Act of Valor
The Movie news for this week:
  • The script for Bill and Ted 3 has been completed. It is said to be Excellent. Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves are back for the movie. Now the production has to wait to be green lighted.

  • The RobotCop reboot will be distributed by Sony, will be directed by José Padilha, and  Joel Kinnaman will play Officer Alex J. Murphy/RoboCop. Depending on what way they will be going with this reboot, it might end up being a good movie.

  • Josh Trank, Chronicle, is in talks with Sony about a Venom spin-off movie from the Spider-Man movies. My question is how this will effect The Amazing Spider-Man movie. Will it be the venom from Spider-Man 3 or will it be a part of The Amazing Spider-Man reboot? Also with Sony having Josh Trank rumored for the Fantastic 4 reboot, which project would they do first. So, until anything is set in stone I hope everything turns out right.

  • Epic Space map from Prometheus:
  • The Muppets DVD/Bluray release trailer is a spoof of the Hunger Games. Check it out below:
  • Etan Cohen, Men in Black 3, will make his directorial debut by working on Paramount’s Boy Scouts vs. Zombies. I have heard a few things about this movie and it seems like it could be a good movie. It sounds weird, but it is a horror comedy with Zombies and Boy Scouts.

  • The first image from Disney's Lone Ranger movie has been released. Yet another weird costume for Johnny Depp to wear. Check out the image below:


  • Max Landis, screen writer of Chronicle, is working on the sequel. No word yet if Josh Trank will be back to direct the sequel.

  • Joss Whedon is already talking about how he would approach Avengers 2. He would like to dive into the characters more and tell more of a story then Wow you with the bigger is better approach. If The Avengers is what it is hyped up to being, I wouldn't mind a sequel with Joss Whedon's name on it.  The Avengers will be the longest movie Marvel and  Joss Whedon has ever done. Originally the movie was over 3 hours long. After  Joss Whedon cut 45 minutes it is now a healthy 2 hours and 15 minutes.  Joss Whedon and Marvel are both happy with that.

  • Confirmed by Viacom: Mission Impossible 5 is on its way. No word yet on who will be back.

  • Arnold Schwarzenegger now has an Anthem. Check it out below:

    This was tweeted to me and I thought I should post it. It was made by the same guy that did The Stallone song.

  • Stallone still wants to do a fifth installment to the Rambo franchise. He is talking about John Rambo fighting Mexican cartels. He also says that it will be like a rehash of the First Blood story. I think the franchise needs to be left as it is.

  • Rumor: Tron 3 is in development. I dont know if I am suppose to like this or not.
  • A new  featurette for The Hunger Games has been released. Check it out below:
