You'll already know David Goyer through Christopher Nolan's Batman films, but with that trilogy all wrapped up, the producer/story writer/scriptwriter has seemingly found his next project (after Godzilla and Man Of Steel) in Patrick Lee's novel The Breach. He's set to work on it with Transformers producer Lorenza di Bonaventura, which is definitely a name.
Although I'm not entirely convinced as to the end results of what might turn out to be an awful movie, I have faith in Sam Raimi as a director: I'm desperately hoping that Oz: The Great And Powerful will emerge as something special, though the last poster looked like something from another world. Not Oz. A world where bad posters are made. I mean, look at it... it's like rejected Pixar artwork.
When he's not busy ordering pyrotechnics, lashing out at Hugo Weaving or pledging that disgruntled celebrities donate all their money to elephant charities, Michael Bay can be seen taking cues from online speculations and casting Mark Wahlberg in the fourth Transformers movie. If you've never seen a Transformers movie then you are one of the few remaining members of the population who still retain a moderate level of intelligence and/or hearing in both ears.
At a point in the not-too-distant future, some poor soul will have to take the reigns on a new series of Batman films. Unlucky, you say? What's that supposed to mean? Well, would you want your work to be compared to Christopher Nolan's Batman ventures? Would you like to try and make a better Batman trilogy? No, I thought not. The poor guy should be terrified.
Sam Raimi is best known for the schlocky horror franchise The Evil Dead, and his Spider-Man trilogy, where he can be seen throwing around Sergio Leone camera angles like some sort of twisted maniac. Anyway, he's been on the scene of both independent films and those with a larger budget, but Raimi's next movie is an outing with none of than Walt Disney Studios.
Well, of course it's a really good website anyway (and has helped countless numbers of students to get their degrees), but who knew that Wikipedia could be used to predict how well a movie will do at the box office too?
What? But it's only been out for two weeks! Well, the British love James Bond more than anybody could have ever predicted, apparently, given that Skyfall - which was directed by Sam Mendes and stars Daniel Craig in his third outing as Ian Fleming's infamous spy - has become the UK's highest-grossing film of 2012. Since its release on October 26th, the film has racked up a whopping £57 million, more than The Dark Knight.
You may or may not know that Jurassic Park is the next film in line to be posthumously converted to 3D and shipped back into theatres kicking and screaming like Dennis Nedry on a muddy slope.
Always one for mixing up his projects and keeping things fresh, Sylvester Stallone recently announced that he'll face off against Robert De Niro in... a boxing movie. Oh. Allow us to start over. Never one to mix up his projects and displaying a firm preference for excessive sequels, Sylvester Stallone recently announced that he'll face off against Robert De Niro in Grudge Match. A boxing movie. Another boxing movie.
If we told you that you were gonna wake up today and view a picture of Tom Cruise running away from an explosion whilst strapped inside a Mech suit, you'd probably laugh and say, "What are you talking about, film website? You're nuts." And yet that's what you're going to get, apparently, despite the fact that such an image is totally bizarre in every way. Check it out below.
