litheraUniversal Pictures has chosen July 1, 2011 for the Peter Berg-directed Battleship movie of, yes, the board game.
The Smurfs has been moved from late 2010 to summer 2011. I wouldn't want to go up against Tron Legacy again.
Christopher Waltz (the milk drinking Nazi from Basterds) has been cast as the villain Chudnofsky in The Green Hornet, replacing Nick Cage.
Harrison Ford says that he is, you know, interested in playing Indy again. The quote is, actually, "... the story for the new Indiana Jones is in the process of taking form. Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and myself are agreed on what the fifth adventure will concern, and George is actively at work. If the script is good, I'll be very happy to put the costume on again."
Michael Fassbender says that he took a lot of inspiration for his Jonah Hex villain from Frank Gorshin's Riddler. Which is brilliant and I can sort of see that from what I've seen of that movie. It looks like everything's been turned up to 11.
"It's oddly relaxing to realize that Kanye just set a bar for douchebaggery that, for the rest of my life, I could not reach if I TRIED." - Mark Waid
Michael Bay's official website updated today - He's meeting on Transformers 3, Bad Boys 3 and a whole slew of other things that look like they'll feature explosions.

Bruce Campbell says he has a larger part in Spidey 4 (starts filming in January) but he doesn't know what it is. I'm still voting for Mysterio.
Jeffrey Dean Morgan is going to be in the Red Dawn remake and is starting a campaign to play Lobo. He looks about right for it as a start....
Maybe I will go back to school - http://sites.history.msu.edu/historyofcomics/ Seriously. Check out the Graphic Novel assigned reading list. I'm tempted to write papers for some of these topics just to exercise my brain.
A new Muppets Halloween special will air next year on TV. Animal's Drum Kit will be released on the iPhone in October. There will be a new line of plush Muppet stuffed animals starting with Kermit. There will be a Waldorf and Statler book coming as well as more Muppet music CDs.
The word is Spielberg wants Robert Downey Jr. to play the man who sees an invisible rabbit in his "Harvey" remake.
Roger Avary and Samuel Hadida have both signed on for a sequel to Silent Hill. Huh. Well. I.... Hrmmmm. I didn't like Silent Hill but I didn't think it was an awful movie. I would have done it differently.
Marvel Ultimate Alliance comes out tomorrow. September 15th is tomorrow already? What?
