"G.I. Joe 2" Being Held Back For Nearly A Year!

A studio exec over at Paramount have confirmed that the new "G.I. Joe" sequel has been held back a year because of the studio wanting it converted into 3D. The film was originally set for a June 29th, but now it's moved to March 29th 2013.
There's a rumor that the studio are also wanting to do some re-shoots on certain scenes. Is the new film in trouble before it's even released?

Six Brand New Character Posters For "The Dark Knight Rises"

I have to admit, the first half of the posters are amazing looking. The look real, whereas the second half look pretty much fan-made. They look more fan-made than the first official "Dark Knight Rises" poster that was released the other day. It was awesome looking, but a bit fan-made looking too.

"The Magnificent Seven" Getting Remade With Tom Cruise?

Rumours have started up on the net saying that MGM are getting ready on remaking, not rebooting, but remaking the 60's classic western, "The Magnificent Seven". There's also news that they want Tom Cruise attached to the project in some way. It's said that the film is still a few years off, seeing as they have reportedly only just started the planning stages of it.
I don't know if I can see Cruise playing a cowboy, but I'm just fucking happy that someone has decided to remake "The Seven" because I really want to see a traditional western back on the BIG-screens, well other than Quentin Tarantino's upcoming "Django Unchained". Plus I just want to see how they'd do it now. Will it be all dark and gritty like western TV show "Deadwood" or will they keep it all family friendly like the original with Steve McQueen and Yul Brynner? Only time will tell.
I would love to see a remake of 70's sci-fi western, "Westworld" next if that's possible. Again, would love to see how filmmakers would make it now with the technology that we have.

New "Hulk" TV Show Coming Next Year!

ABC President Paul Lee, gave fans an small update on this planned "Hulk" live-action TV show that's supposedly on it's way within the next few years. He's told us that it could be hitting the small screens sometime next year, rather the original plan of around 2014/15, along with the next BIG-screen outing for the green giant.
This is what he said, "Hulk is in development. It wasn't going to be ready this season but we hope it's going to be ready for next season." So they tried for this year, but couldn't get it made in time, so next year instead........AWWWWESOME!!!!
There's no word on who will portray Dr Bruce Banner/The Hulk in this upcoming TV show, but it certainly isn't going to be Mark Ruffalo......he's films only, even though the show is still set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

Brand New Poster For "The Dark Knight Rises"

I really like this first official poster, but somethings telling me that it looks a pit too fan-made, even though Warner Bros, revealed it themselves. Hopefully they will release better looking ones soon enough.

James Badge Dale Takes On Role In "Iron Man 3"

The "Skyfall" Teaser Trailer Has Arrived!

OMG! The first official teaser trailer for this years Bond film, "Skyfall" has finally been released online and it's looking EPIC!!! What an action-packed trailer guys and gals. If you're a fan of the franchise, then you will cream the second you watch it.
The film deffo doesn't look like it's going to be your usual James Bond film. It looks like it'll be a hell of a lot darker than the previous ones, even Daniel Craig rebooted films. Check the trailer out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJ4dAY3DW4c

New Images From "Total Recall"

New 4-Mintue Preview Of "The Amazing Spider-Man"

On Monday night, the Americans were treated to a brand new 4-minute preview trailer of "The Amazing Spider-Man" during the adverts of one of their shows. It's pretty incredible looking. The biggest majority of it is just the 3rd trailer that was released a few weeks back. The first minute and a half is this awesome bridge scene featuring Spider-Man saving some kid from a hanging burning car while the Lizard is going off his head and destroying everything that's in his way. IT'S INCREDIBLE!!!!
Here's the link to the video on YouTube: http://youtu.be/16AwVWvjQhY

Alice Eve On-Set Of "Trek 2"

The first pic of Alice Eve's character from the set of "Star Trek 2" has been leaked online. The good thing is that it looks like she's one of Starfleet and not a villain, like originally rumored.

"Anchorman 2" Teaser Poster And Title Revealed!

Comic actor Will Ferrel has set up a profile on Twitter as Anchorman himself, Ron Burgundy. He uploaded this first teaser poster for the upcoming 2013 "Anchorman" sequel, which is under the official title as "Anchorman: The Legend Continues".
Ferrel also confirmed that there will be an official teaser trailer attached to the premiere of Sasha Baron Cohen's "The Dictator" tonight over in the US of A. That should hopefully be hitting the net tomorrow at some point.

New Teaser Poster For "Machete Kills"

This new teaser poster for the upcoming "Machete Kills" clearly confirms the cast of the sequel. Actress Amber Heard looks as though she has officially joined the still growing cast of Robert Rodriguez's next "Machete" film. But it looks like Jessica Alba might not be as her name ain't at the top of the poster with the cast names. Maybe she's getting a cameo or something.

The 12th Doctor Is........LOKI?

...........Or maybe he's not. It's weird because I came across this picture this morning and now everyone is going crazy about it. This picture showed up featuring Tom Hiddleston, who plays villain Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) standing up against the TARDIS. Now the picture looks genuine and it's making me want to go online and start asking question, questions like:
1. Is Loki the next Doctor?
2. Is Matt Smith really leaving "Doctor Who"?
3. What the fuck is going on here?
It could be all just a fake. Fan-made pictures are legendary online, but this one (I think) is the most realistic and more believable one to date.
If this is real, then old Smithy must be leaving the TARDIS next season or on the shows BIG 50th. Plus, Hiddleston would be the bomb as the next Doctor. He's Loki on the BIG-screen and The Doctor on the small-screen................EPIC!!!!!

UPDATE: Tom Hiddleston is a long time fan of "Doctor Who" and he got this taken because he's a massive geek too.
