So what’s the deal here, really? Well according to Wikipedia, it is going to be a re-boot of the Spider-Man franchise. I’m not sure what to think about this, especially because they want it to take place when Peter Parker is still in high school. Originally, Spider-Man 4 was to include the Lizard, and the Vulture as at least 2 of Spider-Man’s villainous foes, but now it is unclear who will be featured now that the original script has been thrown in file 13.   Sam Raimi claimed that he backed out of the project due to time constraints, not sure that he would be able to deliver the film for a May 2011 release date. There is no hint yet at who will be portraying Spider-Man, Mary Jane Watson, or any other characters, but one thing is clear, get ready for a whole new Spider-Man experience (good or bad). Maybe this means that Sam Raimi could team up with Bruce Campbell again for a new Evil Dead movie????? How awesome would that be?!…….. On a related note, there is also some buzz floating around that there will be a Venom spin-off movie slated for 2012 as well. Venom is reportedly going to be portrayed as an anti-hero instead of outright villain, which makes no sense to me at all (because he loves to destroy just about everything). There seems to be a script written already, but it is apparently being re-written to adhere to the new idea of Venom being an anti-hero. This should be an interesting take, especially because Stan Lee has agreed to even star in a cameo role. I guess we shall see what this brings to the table for an altered Marvel universe.

AMELIA

STARRING: Hillary Swank, Richard Gere and Ewan McGregor

PLOT: Amelia Earhart, a Kansas girl, discovers the thrill of aviation at age 23, and within 12 years has progressed to winning the Distinguished Flying Cross for being the first woman to pilot a plane solo across the Atlantic Ocean. At age 39, she sets out on an attempt to circumnavigate the globe, an adventure that catapults her into aviation myth. Written by Jim Beaver {jumblejim@prodigy.net}

This movie looks like a biopic flick about the life and mysterious disappearance of Amelia Earhart. It also looks as if they have inter-twined a love story in the mix as well. It may prove to be a tearjerker for all you that are in to that sort of movie.

-Saw VI-

Starring Tobin Bell, Mark Rolston, Costas Mandylor, and Shawnee Smith.

Plot: Special Agent Strahm is dead, and Detective Hoffman has emerged as the unchallenged successor to Jigsaw’s legacy. However, when the FBI draws closer to Hoffman, he is forced to set a game into motion, and Jigsaw’s grand scheme is finally understood.

Will this be the finale to the Saw saga?  Doubtful, it’s too much like Friday the 13th in that way.

Anyone else getting burned out on these??

-Surrogates -

Starring Bruce Willis and Radha Mitchell.

Plot: Set in a futuristic world where humans live in isolation and interact through surrogate robots, a cop (Willis) is forced to leave his home for the first time in years in order to investigate the murders of others’ surrogates.

It’s nice to finally see Bruce back in some descent looking action flicks!
