George Miller Now Wants Three "Mad Max" Films!

A few years back, "Mad Max" director, George Miller announced that he was finally making a fourth "Mad Max" film with Tom Hardy starring in the role of Max. The fourth film is called, "Mad Max: Fury Road". Then he announced that he was making a fifth film back-2-back with the fourth one. The fifth is said to be called, "Mad Max: Furiosa". And now he's announced that he's already nearly finished writting the script for a third sequel, which is technically the sixth film in the road rage franchise.
Can't believe he's announcing that he's making a sixth film, when he's not even moving his arse on the fourth one and well, the announced back-2-back fifth film too.

Alice Eve Joins 2013 "Star Trek" Sequel!

Finally British hottie, Alice Eve is getting somewhere. I know she's in the next "Men In Black" film and that is going somewhere, but not only that but she's not getting a female leading role in JJ Abrams upcoming "Star Trek" sequel, which is set for release in May 2013.
It's unknown yet which lead role she's been given, but according to some online sites, she's playing a brand-new character that'll be added to the Trek Universe. Let's just hope she's not a villain.

The Doctor Is Heading To The BIG-Screen!

Finally The Doctor is heading back to the BIG-screen, but sadly not in the form of Matt Smith or The 12th Doctor, or any TV Doctor to that matter, which means no David Tennant!!!
The BBC announced earlier this week that they have finally agreed to adapt the long-running British sci-fi favourite into a BIG-screen film once again, with "Harry Potter" director, David Yates sitting at the helm. I just hope he doesn't cast Daniel "Fucking" Radcliffe for the role of The Doctor.
Previously were the two 60's films that never really had anything to do with the TV show, apart from having the TARDIS and the Daleks. The Doctor wasn't even a Timelord, he was an earth scientist/inventor, called Dr Who (Peter Cushing).........SOOOOO FUCKING HORRIBLE!!! Then the Americans took a crack at it with the first appearence of The 8th Doctor (Paul McGann), back in the late 90's, but failed, even though I really enjoyed it.
Jane Tranter at BBC Worldwide commented on the news of the new film by saying, “we’re looking at writers now. We’re going to take two to three years to get it right. It needs quite a radical transformation to take it into the bigger arena”. I don't know if the film will be made within two to three years (2013/14) or if that's how long the BBC will spend on making it right, then going ahead and filming it, which would or could take about another year or two before completetion (2015/16).
Yates also commented on what himself, the writers and the BBC plan to do with the film, “we have to put that aside and start from scratch”. This means that the film will infact be a 3rd reboot of the show, 1st being the American late 90's film and 2nd being our much loved 2005-present reboot, which is a fucking smash and no one should change it. Fans say that Moffats series is a reboot of Davis', but it's really not. Only the Americans say this!!! I think the BBC also plan to just have The Doctor in it to be known as just The Doctor, rather than refer to what number he is, etc..
All the same, I'm really really looking forward to the upcoming film. I just hope they at least keep Murray Gold for writing the music. I know they don't want Head Writers, Steven Moffat and Russell T Davis to have anything to do with it, but at least ask for some advice on it first. And finally, pick the right actor to play the role of The Doctor. I have put some thought into some choices for the role. Nothing for the companions yet, just The Doctor. Seeing as it's BIG-screen, you can cast a BIG British actor for the role. My choices are as followed, and they're not in any favourite order,
James McAvoy
Michael Fassbender
Michael Sheen
Andrew Garfield

The Wolfman To Be Villain In "Trek" Sequel?

According to various sites on the internet, "Wolfman" star, Benicio Del Toro is rumored to be in talks with "Star Trek" 2009 reboot director, JJ Abrams, over the role of lead villain in "Star Trek 2".
It's rumored that Del Toro may be playing legend villain, Khan, from "Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan". This villain is the Trekkies favourite villain, so he could appear. I'd love him to play the new Khan. He's also rumored to be playing a Klingon leader.

Warner Wants "Superman" And "Green Lantern" Sequels Out By 2015/16 Along With "Justice League" Film?

It's been rumored that Warner Bros want to finally make a "Justice League" film out by either 2015 or 2016, along with a sequel to both "Superman: The Man Of Steel" and "Green Lantern". If this is true, then it seems that Warner must be happy with what they're seeing from the "Superman: The Man Of Steel" footage. It's assumed that the "Green Lantern" sequel will indeed be a sequel and not a reboot to this years BIG-screen cock-up with Ryan Reynolds in the starring role. Loved him, just the movie didn't work well.
David Goyer is supposedly the favourite choice to write the script for the "Justice League" film. It's unknown if Henry "Superman" Cavill and Ryan "Green Lantern" Reynolds will return to their roles of the DC cross-over film, but it's assumed that they will. Christian "Batman" Bale is deffo not expected to return to his role.

Work Begins On Script For "First Class" Sequel!

20th Century Fox have hired Simon Kinberg to start work on a script for "X-Men: First Class 2", which is rumored to be under the working title of "X-Men: Second Class"...........which would make sense!
Kinberg previously worked on scripts for "X-3: The Last Stand", "Sherlock Holmes" and "Mr & Mrs Smith".
It's not been confirmed if either director Matthew Vaughn or the cast will return for the sequel. The cast have all said that they are up for returning, but Vaughn hasn't said anything, but I'm sure everyone will return.

Andy Serkis Back For "Apes" Sequels!

20th Century Fox have announced that Andy Serkis has signed a new deal with them to return of lead ape Caeser in multiple sequels to this years EPIC reboot, "Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes".
It's not confirmed if James Franco or Freida Pinto will return to their roles. Director, Rupert Wyratt and writers Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver have announced that they will all return too.
I'M EXCITED NOW!!!

"BOND 23" Given Official Title!

"Skyfall" is the official title for the 23rd James Bond film, which will be released in October next year. This was announced last week at the new films press conference. The logo and the films confirmed cast members were also revealed.
Javier Bardem is the films lead villain as previously announced. Daniel Craigs James Bond will have a small beard this time round. Bérénice Marlohe will be the films lead Bond Girl, called Severin. Director Sam Mendes said that she's more a Bond Woman than girl. Ralph Finnes is confirmed for the film, but it was recently rumored that he may be playing a new verison of Blofeld. Naomi Harris will be playing a character called Eve, who works at MI6. It's been rumored that she may be still playing a new verison of Miss Money-Penny. Eve may be her first name.
Here's the films synopsis, "In SKYFALL, Bond’s loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost."
Filming has began and everything seems to be going down smoothly. Here's a photo from on-set from a few days ago.

Bruce Campbell Talks About "Evil Dead" Remake!

During an interview, "Evil Dead" actor, Bruce Campbell talked about the upcoming remake of 80's horror classic, "Evil Dead". He confirmed his involvement, but not what he'll do. He also confirmed that an "ASH" character will not appear at all in the new film, like originally rumored. It was originally rumored that the "ASH" character was going to be a girl called Ashlee.
Here's a link to the interview video, http://comicbookmovie.com/fansites/rorschachsrants/news/?a=49696#ooid=Zhcnh5MjqgTL8IerCnSSmSRGOvjuSzEK
So a remake of the classic EPIC horror, "Evil Dead" is happening. Now I'm actually really excited about the upcoming 2012/13 remake, which will be produced by both Bruce "ASH" Campbell and Sam Raimi (the original creator of the "Evil Dead" franchise). Raimi's production team, Ghost House is making it along with new director, Fede Alvarez and "Juno" scribe, Diablo Cody, who will be fixing up the script.

John Carpenter Approached To Direct "Spider-Man" & "Batman" Back In The 70's!

"HALLOWEEN" director, John Carpenter mentioned that he was approached by various film studios to direct film adaptions of both "Spider-Man" and "Batman" way back in the 1970's.
"Well, I've thought about it before,". "Way back in the '70s, I was approached to talk about the story I'd write for a Spider-Man movie. They also talked to me about Batman. I had to think about it, but that was way, way back when."
I bet he would have cast some of the actors and actresses from his films in the adaptions, if he said yes. Jamie Lee Curtis would deffo been the leading lady in one of them.

Karen Gillan Wants Amy Pond To Die When She Leaves!

While chatting with the Daily Mirror, she mentioned that once she leaves "Doctor Who", she wants her character (Amy Pond) to be killed off for good. She'd rather her die than return every once and a while like Billie Piper's Rose Tyler. That sounds quite fair really. I can't see anyone wanting another Rose Tyler going on her.
She has confirmed that she wont be leaving anytime soon though, just that when she does, she wants a BIG emotional ending and not to return.

"Dumb & Dumber" director, Bobby Farrelly confirmed that a script for the REAL "Dumb & Dumber 2" is being penned as we speak by "Sex Drive" writers, Sean Andres and John Morris. Farrelly hopes that he will manage to reunite the original cast members, Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels.

"Star Trek" Sequel Wont Have The Number Two In The Title?

There's been rumors circulating on the net saying that the next "Star Trek" 2013 sequel will not carry the number 2 in the title. I think it would be a good thing to drop the "2" and just have a subtitle like the older films that featured Picard and his crew.
Zoe Saldana was speaking to Access Hollywood about that status if the next sequel. This is what she had to say, "We still haven't gotten a script yet," she said of progress on the film, which Access has confirmed with a source will begin shooting in mid-January. "We're very excited to read it and get back into space."

The Brand-New Trailer For "The Avengers" Is Here!

Hey guys and gals, I'm back to blogging the latest news and rumors in Tv and film. Let's start off with the release of the brand-new trailer for next years "The Avengers". Now I know this was out like weeks ago, but I'm still going to blog about it.
I think the trailer is fucking epic looking. Love how it shows that Loki is a key villain in the film, but it looks as though there's something else, but who ever the other villain is, we aint going to see it till next year.
Here's the link to the trailer on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOrNdBpGMv8

Wes Craven Says That "SCREAM 5" Is Coming!

Whilst promoting "SCRE4M" on DVD and Blu-ray, Wes Craven discussed "SCREAM 5" with Movieweb.com. He said that a script is in the works, despite the low box-office intake that "SCRE4M" took in earlier this year.
"Odds are that there will be a (Scream 5). It is something that Bob Weinstein wants to do. He tends to do what he wants to do. So I am inclined to think that there will be. Whether I will be a part of it or not? I don't know."
He also mentioned that "SCREAM 6" will tie-in with the fifth film and that Kevin Williamson is penning both scripts right now and will let Craven see them when they are finished, especially the fifth one, seeing as though it's next.

"The Dark Knight Rises" Sees The Return Of Scarcrow!

In the past few months of filming for "TDKR", a lot of spoilers have been revealed by fans who have been taking videos or photos whilst watching from off-set. Now another spoiler has been revealed, that being the return of Cillian Murphy's Jonathan Crane aka The Scarecrow.
Scarecrow was the semi-lead villain in the first film in Nolan's trilogy, "Batman Begins" back in 2005. Then he returned for a brief cameo in 2008's sequel, "The Dark Knight" and now it looks as though he's been spotted on-set of new final film, "The Dark Knight Rises". He said to be appearing in a scene that's set in a Courthouse, alongside Gary Oldman's Commissioner Gordon.

Magneto Being Considered For "ROBOCOP"

Jose Padilha has spoken out about who he thinks could play his Robocop in his reboot of the 80's classic. He really thinks that "X-Men: First Class" star, Michael Fassbender would be perfect for the role. He said that he loved Fassbender in "First Class" and wants to arrange a meeting with him to discuss the role of Robocop.
I for one think that Fassbender would also be perfect for the role. First Magneto, role in Ridley Scott's "Prometheus" and now (very possibly) Robocop and most likely James Bond next when Daniel Craig leaves. Michael Fassbender is going to have a hell of a movie career to look back on when he's retired.

"Fringe" Star To Play Lex Luthor?

"Fringe" star, Michael Cerveris has been reportedly being considered, by Zach Snyder to appear as Lex Luthor in his upcoming "Superman" reboot, "Superman: The Man Of Steel".
Luthor will not likely appear for the full of the new movie. He'll most likely cameo near the end of the film, for a set-up to the sequel.

"Captain America" Sequel Out For 2014?

While speaking to some shity magazine, "Captain America" star, Chris Evans mentioned that "Captain America 2" may not be out till about 2014. He said that there were plans to squeeze the sequel in with the 2013 Marvel releases, but said that 2014 will most likely be the right year for it.
Evans also confirmed that he's signed a six-picture deal with Marvel and it's Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), which consists of three "Captain America" films and three "Avengers" films. He said that his character will probably not pop up in any other Marvel Cinematic Universe films, unless they want to pay him MEGA money to do so, which probably wont happen.

The Doctors Time Is Coming To An End.......Again!

The 11th Doctors time is coming to a close, as next week will see the "death" of the Matt Smiths Doctor in Utah. Even though Matt Smith is coming back for this years Xmas Special and next years "Series 7", you can't not think that something major is going to happen to The Doctor anyway. Whats going to happen to him? After watching last nights episode, "Closing Time", especially the last 5 minutes of it, it makes you think,
"HOLY FUCK!!! IS THIS REALLY HAPPENING????".
And the teaser for next episode was amazing, really hope James Corden comes back next year. Really think that his character could come back every season, while Smith is still The Doctor. Looking at next weeks episode, you can see that the shit is gonna go down in the finale. Hopefully all questions for the whole season will be answered and hopefully will not be dragged too much through to next years season.
Love how some things popped up at the end of last nights episode that appeared in episode one of this season. We saw The Doctor borrowing envolopes that are eventually going to be sent to his companions and River Song. We also saw him getting a Stetson, which was given to him by James Cordens character, Craig.
I think that the season finale will be quite emotional for The Doctor and for the fans too. I'll deffo cry if something bad happens to the TARDIS team. Hope we see River Song getting ready to go back to visit David Tennants 10th Doctor, which should be happening sometime soon, seeing as though she's now a Doctor.........SPOILERS!!!!

Justin Lin Not Directing "Terminator 5" Anymore!

It's been announced that "Fast & Furious" franchise helmer, Justin Lin has sadly had to leave the "Terminator" franchise, before he even got to make one film.
He's been reportedly in discussions with Arnie and rights owner, Megan Ellison over the films plot and what he'd do to the franchise, to bring it back to life and how to forget the previous two (slighly cocked up) installments. Lin was set to put the first of the two films into production sometime in 2012, but he's now not able to do so until he finished his shitty 6th and hopefully final "Fast & Furious" film first.
The door has been left open for Lin to return as director, but for now, no movement will be made on the franchise.

New "ROBOCOP" Reboot To Be Nothing Like 80's Original!

During an interview with online site, Film1, new "ROBOCOP" reboot director, Jose Padilha mentioned that his new version of the cyborg cop film will be completely different than the 80's original.
This is what he said,
Earlier this year, you announced that the reboot of RoboCop will direct. The original from 1987, directed by Dutch director Paul Verhoeven , with that movie made ​​its debut in Hollywood. How will your vision differ from those of Verhoeven?
I love the sharpness and political tone of RoboCop , and I think that such a film is now urgently needed. But I will not repeat what Verhoeven has done so clearly and strongly. Instead I try to make a film that will address topics that Verhoeven untreated. If you are a man changes into a robot, how do you do that? What is the difference between humans and robots developed? What is free will? What does it mean to lose your free will? Those are the issues that I think.
RoboCop is your first movie in America. Like the political apparatus of Rio de Janeiro, the Hollywood film industry, a system in which not everyone thrives. What is your strategy to survive in Hollywood?
I try to make movies that I like, that I feel and I deal with social problems involved. I will continue to do where I work. If I can develop in Hollywood, then I make a movie with all the means Hollywood. If that fails, then that movie is not. It is that simple!

Amy & Rory Confirmed For Xmas Special!

Obviously if you've been watching "Doctor Who", you'll have saw the departure of Amy and Rory last week in epsiode 11, "The God Complex". Even though Karen Gillan confirmed that she was returning as Amy Pond full-time next year for "Series 7", I actually thought she was lying after what we saw.
But it turns out that herself and Arthur Darvill (Rory) have been confirmed to be appearing in this years Christmas Special, as they were spotted on-set of the Wales shoot for the seasonal episode. All I can say is, "THANK GOD!!!!".
