Well, like I said, the one time I've seen the trailer for Get Smart was before the last Harry Potter movie last July, so it's been awhile...

I wasn't too thrilled with the last Hulk movie.

New trailer for the X-Files 2 movie is here. It's debatable whether I'm actually going to see this since I was never that big a fan of the show - I think I stopped watching it around season 3 or so...

While I was a huge X-Files fan back in the day, I gave up on the show about the time of the eighth season. If they had put out this movie five years ago, I might have been still interested enough to see it, but not now.

Sci Fi Wire is reporting the following:

Quote:
 
Beast To Appear in Magneto?

Latino Review recently visited the creature shop where designers are working on Hellboy II: The Golden Army and reported that there was a picture on display depicting a young Beast in the upcoming X-Men spinoff film Magneto.

The report stated that the figure in the picture had a tail, leading readers to suspect that it might have been Nightcrawler and not the Beast (both characters have blue fur), but a representative from the creature shop is on record identifying the character as the Beast and confirming that he will be in Magneto.

The trailer for the new Mummy movie is up over at Yahoo...

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

There's options for regular or HD versions of the trailer on that page. At least it has Jonathan in it... :) I like Jonathan.

Flash Gordon reignited by Columbia
Quote:
 
Columbia might be rocketing a redo-update of "Flash Gordon," entering talks to acquire the film rights for a big-screen adaptation that has Breck Eisner attached to direct and Neal Moritz set to produce. Eisner also will exec produce.

"Flash" originally was a science fiction newspaper comic strip drawn by Alex Raymond in the 1930s and was created to compete with another sci-fi strip, "Buck Rogers." "Flash" was first adapted to the screen via Buster Crabbe serials and was made into a lavish 1980 film starring Sam Jones but remembered more for its Queen score. More recently, it was a Sci Fi Channel miniseries that was seen as a critical and ratings failure.

Storywise, Flash was an athlete who travels to the planet Mongo with his lady love, Dale Arden, and the mad scientist Dr. Hans Zarkov. There, they discover a world ruled by Ming the Merciless and meet such strange inhabitants as the Hawkmen and the Sharkmen.

No writers are on board to adapt.

Moritz is becoming something of a favorite son at Columbia, with plenty of plum projects in his stable. The producer is developing for the studio a live-action adaptation of the "Goosebumps" book series, a remake of "21 Jump Street," and an adaptation of "The Green Hornet."

Eisner, repped by CAA, is developing a remake of "Creature From the Black Lagoon" as a directing vehicle, and developing a remake of the 1973 George A. Romero horror movie "Crazies." He also directed the premiere episode of NBC's horror anthology "Fear Itself."

As long as it doesn't suck like the Sci-Fi TV show...

I hope that a new Flash Gordon movie would be better than that awful show on sci-fi . At Dark Horizons they had a news story saying Vigo Mortinsen and the actor who played Gollum have been contacted to be in meetings for the preproduction filming plans for the Hobbit. At least they're finally starting to work on this movie.

Another one who has joined the cast is a female lead played by someone with the weird name Moon Bloodgood.

I still find it odd that they'll go with this version when there's another one made for TV, and they really don't mesh.

I really hope they will have learned from Sci-Fi's mistake and stay true to Alex Raymond's vision.

Heatstroke The guys who brought us Farscape are doing this movie. So, even though it's the Sci-fi Channel hopefully it won't be completely horrible. B) But it's about an ex-model and a commando who fight aliens causing global warming, so.....yeah. :vulcan:

Ah, good to see FrooniumRicky and DK, and even Andrew Prowse working again... :)

And since it says that Ricky's one of the writers, I'm sure that it will have a crazy twist in there (besides what's listed in the promo, that is). After all, he was the guy who wrote my favorite episode of an old show called Shadow Chasers, which lasted all of 9 episodes against The Cosby Show back in the mid-80s, in which they "exorcised" the ghosts from the hotel who had taken over one of the show's leads by using an "aerobic exorcist" who "exercised" them... Believe me, it was funny to watch...

Now, as long as they avoid the Sci Fi channel's traditional solution to solving the various crises in these B-movies of theirs, namely "let's use nukes to stop whatever it is, be it a black hole, supernova, the Pacific Plate from destroying the earth, etc.," it'll probably be good...

But... but... what will Al Gore say? This undercuts his entire argument that humans cause global warming! :wink:

You know, I was very fond of both Escape to Witch Mountain and Return from Witch Mountain when I was a kid... they were both corny Disney movies--I admit it--but I still liked them. Tony and Tia were the best, in my book, and I probably saw those two Disney movies more than any other as a kid--they showed one of them every year we went to COSI for the Girl Scout sleepover there, they showed it a couple of different times when I was at school, too. Not to mention the repeat showings on the Disney Sunday movie...

I don't see why Disney has to constantly remake the same stories, over and over (even if they do update it a bit--heck they did three updates of The Parent Trap alone, not to mention all the different times they've redone The Shaggy Dog over the years)... yet they're doing it again, this time with Escape to Witch Mountain, which has been renamed Race to Witch Mountain.

Why can't they just leave something alone for once? :(

Though I imagine I could talk my best friend into seeing the remake if I wanted to... after all, it stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (he's basically playing the same role that Eddie Albert played in Escape--the guy who's getting the kids back to the mountain).
