Aliens VS Predator but probably not in the way anyone would want. So many choices and we go with this? And the rumor is he wants to make it PG-13. .... Cody, there are more Hollywood people that need smacking. (Need. Bat. Of. Justice.)

Lots of reviews are coming in for Alex and Emma. They all seem to like it but apparently there is a twist in it that left a bad taste in people's mouths. Why put in a quirky plot twist if you don't need one?

Another new round of chosing director for a Hitchhiker's movie. If anything really turns up, I'll let you all know. I'm waiting.

A Harry Potter review for you. No spoilers.

Variety reports: "The play's the thing -- especially when it becomes a movie musical, like "Chicago." And DreamWorks' Steven Spielberg and Walter Parkes have left no doubt about their desire to find the legit tuner to transfer to the big screen -- and they may have found it. Parkes is en route to Chicago to meet with Stephen Sondheim today to talk conversion of "Sweeney Todd" to the big screen."

Variety reports: "Revolution Studios will open a superhero school, optioning the graphic novel "Zoom's Academy for the Super Gifted" from Jason Lethcoe for Team Todd and Underground Films to produce."

The Cat in the Hat trailer is out there. You can find it if you want. I'm afraid.

Variety again: "Producer Mimi Polk Gitlin has inked a deal with Joshua Stern to script "Paper Dragon," a family action-adventure about a boy and his ancient Chinese warrior pal."

Guy Pearce is apparently still up for the Batman role.

From Bruce Campbell.com: "I play the 'Snooty Usher,' another pivotal role where I deny Tobey Maguire access to see Kirsten Dunst in her first big play. Sorry, no Lizard for me...I'm not a reptile guy." -BC

I'm going to have to get two copies of the final issue in the Hush story arc. One will be villans and one will be heroes.

JLA-Z - A handbook to DC's greatest super-team featuring artwork by some of the biggest names in comics, timed to coincide with the debut of JLA/Avengers. Featuring the first of a triptych of covers by Phil Jimenez, this issue includes villains and heroes from Amazo to Green Arrow, and features artwork by Jim Lee, Scott McDaniel and indie comics superstars including Jeff Parker.

Oh fucking hell.

When will people learn to stick to the original story???

I'm going to take that Bat of Justice and cram it right up Paul Anderssons ass. PG-13.... that fucker.

If they went with the Machiko Noguchi storyline, it would rock. Hands down. I'm not sure who I think should direct it but it would need to be someone who can work on the epic and creepy stage.

It was going to be James Cameron and Ridley Scott. Which would have ruled. They seem to be looking towards Aliens 5, though.

Ehn.

Gonna go see the re-release of Aliens in October and live in happy land for a little bit. 12 extra minutes.

The Hartford Courant is reporting that Watchmen is back alive, but they provide virtually no details. It's buried in a story about comic book movies in general.

Watchmen is on and off again. It's like Hitchhiker and Superman and Batman. I'm not saying much unless I see something more certain.

Well, if they can put together a good script for The Watchmen, Terry Gilliam said that he would direct it. Not just any script: A GOOD script. Which means that it is never going to happen, and they'll have to settle for a less discerning director. Pity. (Although Gilliam is going to be directing Good Omens, which just makes my nipples hard.) As for Aliens vs. Preditor? God. That's been bouncing in and out of production for almost 15 years, now. Anything that's been bounced around that long is going to have some serious quality issues. I'm looking forward to it as much as, say, T3. Bleah.

He'll be directing Good Omens when he can get the money. Last I heard he was 60 million short.

Yeah.. well... Yeah.

I certainly don't have $60 million.
