If anyone is interested, Sega and Capcom collaborated with Archie Comics on the development of a cross-over comic. It arrives this May, Mega Man and Ryu are the main stars, and most of the cast are from lesser known Sega and Capcom series.

It would be better to show 2 movies a night leading up to the premier of the new movie.

The only way this thing works is if they sell it as a package so the only people who are in that section or sections are the only ones who bought the package and if they had comfy recliner seats. Food and drinks included into the package as well would be a good idea.They can pop in and out for the movies and all that the staff has to do is check the tickets instead of selling tickets for each movie every couple of hours.

[Kalyx triaD]

Pretty sure it would be a package. It's how we did marathons when I was working at AMC.

Sly Stallone and Fox are teaming up to bring the Expendables to TV in an 'event series' (likely meaning a mini-series) that will use legendary TV stars that team up to stop a threat.

I'm thinking this will likely be in the movie's universe as will the 'Expendabelles' female focused spin-off still in development.

Who do you think should make the team? I think McGuyver's a lock.

[Sixx]

Dudikoff.

Mr. T maybe?

[Kalyx triaD]

Expendables has a lot of parallels to the A-Team so Mr. T would be great.

Supposedly Warner Bros is being alleged to have stolen artwork from another artist in regards to one of the European Blu-ray versions for the Masters of the Universe 25th anniversary edition.

The main issue revolves around an image of Skeletor used in the Swedish version that wasn't used for other versions of the film. Those versions use what Skeletor looked like in the film for the cover.

Freelance illustrator and concept artist Dave Rapoza claims that his work has been used without his permission.

Rapoza – whose work has been commissioned by the likes of Bethesda, Riot Games, Blizzard, and 20th Century Fox for X-Men Days of Future Past – believes his fan art of Skeletor has been used on the cover of the Swedish Blu-ray rerelease of 1987’s Masters of the Universe.

Swedish version:

Hope it is better than the 90s remake. The last one was ok. But really Masters of the Universe 80s version doesn;t hold up. Bad animation,bad stories and forced in moral lessons in each episode. Plus it was nothing but a bad rip off of Blackstar. Which it seems no one besides me remembers.

Oh if the 3rd movie is any indication they're focusing on The Mythology from now on. I'm sure the miniseries will do some Monster of the Week stuff, too.

[Droford]

3rd movie?

[Kalyx triaD]

Yeah Chris Carter's had the 3rd movie written out for years now, and has been lobbying for Fox to jump on it. All details revealed show that they're wanting to get back into the Mythology after the criticism of the second movie. It's probable that the miniseries will come in lieu of a third movie and cover the same story beats (in fact that would be cheaper anyway).

Rumors of Disney and Microsoft working together on an animated film project with Banjo Kazooie being involved. The writing team for Wreck It Ralph was teased to be working on the script.

Warner Bros recently bought the rights to make a Five Nights at Freddy's film.

EA managed to get some investors on board to help convince Dreamworks to get a new Need for Speed film to be made.

According to Variety, a Need for Speed movie sequel is in the works, with various Chinese partners and Electronic Arts playing important roles. The project isn't yet greenlit, however; Dreamworks owns the rights to a sequel, and a deal would have to be negotiated to secure them.

The fact that Chinese partners are involved seemingly indicates the direction for the next installment. Early reports peg this Need for Speed as being filmed mostly in China, and made up of a cast that's comprised largely of the nation's actors. This is likely due to the fact that the original saw a large chunk of its proceeds, $65 million, come from audiences in China.

Apparently Sony's been wanting to do a bunch of gaming-related movies with them also trying to get a collaboration deal done with Activision. Would have involved either Call of Duty and/or Skylanders getting a film made.

Unlike with the Nintendo stuff, the Activision films were more of ideas than actual talks with the company.

Skylanders, Rothman said, could possibly be a giant LEGO Movie-type film. Call of Duty, while Rothman said would be hard to use, would still be worth it because of the franchise’s popularity.

The B list consisted of Diablo, Destiny and Castle Wolfenstein. There were “a bunch of Cs,” but Rothman didn’t outline them.

Nick Arcade might be getting a spiritual successor if the new show's Kickstarter fund ends up being successful.

We've gotten word from James Bethea, co-creator of Nick Arcade, that a spritual successor is in the works. Bethea has reunited with his co-creator Karim Miteff and the original host Phil Moore for a "spiritual successor" called Enthlevel. The idea is to mix the old school feel of the show with new technology, which is mostly VR-related, where "live action and CG (computer graphics) obstacles converge." It will be team-based just like the original, where "teens through adults of any age can compete."

The Kickstarter has just launched, with 28 days to go and a $350,000 goal.

Mad Max: Fury Road reviews are all coming back super positive.

Gonna try to track down a collection set and just take a day and watch them all just as a refresher.

[Emperor Smeat]

Apparently there is a push going on for a boycott of the new Mad Max film all because Mad Max takes orders from a woman in a film. The group involved with the boycott has been getting ridiculed ever since their stance was made public.

A men's rights group have condemned the new action movie Mad Max: Fury Road because of a strong female character in the storyline.

Actress Charlize Theron stars as Furiosa, a character that has angered the men's group on the men's blog Return of Kings.

Despite glowing reviews, blogger Aaron Clarey wrote an article calling on men to not only boycott the film, but to encourage other men not to watch it either.

"Not only REFUSE to see the movie, but spread the word to as many men as possible," he wrote, describing the movie as a feminist "Trojan Horse" used to blur lines between masculinity and femininity.

He was not happy that Furiosa had "barked orders" at Mad Max.

"Fury Road was not going to be a movie made for men. It was going to be a feminist piece of propaganda posing as a guy flick."

The next Mad Max film expected to be called "Mad Max: Wasteland" with a third film already confirmed as well.

According to the director, the plan was always for a trilogy to be done for the Mad Max reboot. Already have the scripts done for the next two films because of all the free time they had with Fury Road's delays and production.

“We’ve got one screenplay and a novella. It happened because with the delays [on Fury Road], and writing all the backstories, they just expanded,” Miller said while explaining how he ended up with a fully mapped out Mad Max trilogy before the first film released, on The Q&A with Jeff Goldsmith.

The Hulkster was speaking to fans at the Body Power Expo in England recently, and conducted a Q-and-A session (via Uproxx) that covered a whole mess of topics, including a conversation that he claims to have had with Sylvester Stallone about The Expendables 4, explaining:

We’re trying to figure out a way to maybe turn me into the most evil man in the world. Y’know, Stallone gave me my first break and he’s been a great friend. We had a great conversation, talking about the possibilities. Can I still run, can I still jump? Well, not as fast or not as high, but I think Hollywood could find a good stunt man to help me out."

Mega Man comic series by Archie Comics is going on an indefinite hiatus after issue 55. Capcom didn't make the decision while Archie Comics stated the series has not been officially canceled.

Speculated Archie Comics did it to be more focused on the Sonic comic series which has been way more popular of the two. Although even the new Sonic Boom series is also going to end soon but not the overall Sonic comic series.

While it has not been canceled, ComicBook.com reports that the series is going on indefinite hiatus after issue #55. Archie editor Vincent Lovallo has confirmed that it is not necessarily permanent, and not Capcom's decision, but their own. In short, it's no secret that the Sonic comics have been much more fruitful for Archie as a whole. I've asked Archie directly about expanding to a new Mega Man X subseries multiple times, and the answer always seems to imply that there isn't a demand for it -- meanwhile, Sonic got his third Archie comic series this year with Sonic Boom.

Apparently, the two companies have worked out a deal for various kinds of media which will allow both companies to use the others’ IPs. This comes from the same source who leaked the third wave of amiibo, however it has not given any evidence for the specific new rumour.

This doesn’t mean all your amiibo will work in Disney Infinity 3.0 unfortunately, although Bowser knocking seven hells out of Anakin Skywalker would be awesome. It does mean there’s room for Nintendo characters in the future, as Disney is apparently interested in making a Mario figure for Infinity.

Outside of plastic toys, this could also mean Mario and other Nintendo IPs get a bigger role in the upcoming Wreck-It Ralph 2, and a potential Mario/Mickey crossover game.

According to GoNintendo, Nintendo wants to set the pace for how its IPs are used by Disney.

Nintendo's also rumored to be entering a partnership with Amazon although mostly in regards to their upcoming mobile gaming plans.

According to reports, Sony's Uncharted film project recently lost another director with creative differences as the official reason. Film's development has been delayed again although Sony hasn't officially canceled the project.

Back in 2009, it was announced that an Uncharted film was already in development. Famed hot-headed director David O. Russell was tapped to direct, and everything seemed to going swimmingly -- until Russell bowed out in 2011, at which point The Illusionist's Neil Burger stepped in. A year later, he also stepped down, only for Seth Gordon (Horrible Bosses) to step up in 2014.

As of this week according to The Warp, he is now gone due to creative differences.

New Star Wars film is currently in production with the directors of the Lego Movie (Christopher Miller and Phil Lord) hired for the project. Current plans is for the film to arrive in 2018.

Film itself will be a prequel to the original Star Wars film and deals with Hans Solo's life before the events of that film.
http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/07/entertainment/star-wars-han-solo-prequel-movie-feat/index.html


Side effect from this news is that the current Flash film in production might need a new director now since those two were working on the project before agreeing on the Hans Solo film.

Channing Tatum’s deal with 20th Century Fox to play leading man Remy LeBeau in its upcoming X-Men spin-off film Gambit is allegedly in danger of falling apart, claims a report on TheWrap.

The rumour comes via an unnamed source who claims the star is planning to exit the project.

A second source confirmed to TheWrap that representatives for Tatum remain in active discussions with Fox but apparently conceded that “something is up.”
If it does fall apart, Fox has till October to get a deal done or find someone else since that is when filming is planned to start. Likely won't be able to make its October 2016 release if the situation isn't resolved by then.

New Hitman film currently on track to become the worst rated video game film by critics. Currently averaging lower positive scores than Pixels did earlier in the year in terms of recent gaming films.

Awful Adam Sandler tax dodge Pixels flirted with a 0% positive reviews yield on film aggregate Rotten Tomatoes last month, but eventually stumbled all the way up to a more respectable 16% positive rating.

So obviously these things change as more reviews, particularly ones from folks who didn't get advance screenings, roll in. Still, Hitman: Agent 47, released today, already has 48 reviews in (Pixels is at 141 after the month) and it is sitting at a laughable 6% positive at time of writing.

Further fun with numbers: sorted by Rotten Tomatoes curated "Top Critics," Pixels has a 9% positive in 32 reviews, Hitman: Agent 47 a 5% positive in 19 reviews, so that's liable to stay under ...

Also note that Hitman (2007), which is also bad, has a 14% positive review rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

The first episode was so good that every episode afterwards made the whole show seem not as good. I did like the one where they show how Eliot and Shayla met though.

New animated Castlevania tv show currently in development.

On Tuesday, Dredd and Power/Rangers producer Adi Shankar announced on Facebook that he would be producing a "super violent" mini-series based on Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse with Fred Seibert and Kevin Klonde. Fred Siebert is a big name in television (particularly animated television), but the only Google results for Kevin Klonde are people who wrote about this story before we did ...

"It’s going to be dark, satirical, and after a decade of propaganda it will flip the vampire sub-genre on its head," Shankar finished ... In a follow-up interview with Collider, Shankar said that he wants this to be the first American animated series for adults, proving that he's never seen Bojack Horseman.

Just Cause 3 getting the gaming-to-movie based treatment. Producer of the recent Hitman film was hired to be in charge of this project.

Adrian Askarieh, who produced both Hitman films and is working on Johnny Quest and Kane & Lynch films, told IGN that he is also producing a Just Cause that will lean on the more story-focused, upcoming third entry in the series.

"Just Cause 3 has a terrific story. It has Rico going back to Medici, the place of his birth and then subsequent displacement, and the murder of his family. And he goes back there to do what he does best which is to discombobulate regimes," Askarieh said.

"That to me is a cool story and the whole concept of a guy who is sent in to discombobulate from within and to create chaos from within. And in terms of action, I think Just Cause has just as much right to be called an action movie as The Fast and Furious."

Film production on Pacific Rim 2 got delayed indefinitely. May or may not end up being dropped as a project and it is likely due to an on-going feud between Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros studios.

Legendary wanted to produce a sequel to del Toro's Pacific Rim, which was made under the Warners deal and turned into one of those films that grosses a lot ($411 million worldwide) while being so costly that a follow-up isn't a sure thing. Sources say Legendary liked that the original performed exceptionally well in China, where the company is heavily invested, but for now the project — which had been ramping up to make a release date in August 2017 — has been halted indefinitely and will be pushed back (if it gets made at all).

Legendary tried to offer the King Kong franchise deal they got from Universal as a peace offering but Warner Bros slowly moving away from them in favor of a new studio.

Nintendo says they are open to the idea of a new Mario Bros film and a Legend of Zelda film being made only if both meet a certain requirement.

They want both to be live action although the Mario Bros film has to treat Mario and Luigi as twins. The first film having Luigi being way younger than Mario was one of the things they didn't like about it.

For the Legend of Zelda film, they want a woman to play the role of Link.

Batman vs Superman currently on track to become the most expensive film ever to produce.

Latino Review reports that (Batman vs Superman) the film's budget has ballooned to $410 million. That already matches the current record holder, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, so if the budget further inflates anytime before release, it will take the record.

For some reference, both Justice Leagues films are expected to cost $500 million combined while Marvel is planning on setting aside at least $1 billion for both Avengers Infinity Wars combined. Could easily end up with one or both Infinity Wars films breaking whatever Batman vs Superman will set.

The movie's being headed up by The Sean Daniel Company, who produced The Mummy films. It's said to star Geralt of Rivia, but it won't tell any tale we're familiar with. Rather than being an adaption of any game or book, it'll draw on themes from the series to form its own narrative. This is said to be the first in a series of movies about The Witcher.

Tomasz Baginski has been tabbed as the director for the project. No actors have been announced yet. Right now, they're shooting for a 2017 release.

Former world record holder of Donkey Kong ended up losing a lawsuit against the makers of cartoon show Regular Show. Tried to claim the show was slandering his reputation while the judge sided with parody claims and how the real Billy Mitchell isn't a giant head that explodes.

As a Regular Show fan, I couldn't forget their depiction of Billy Mitchell in the form of Garrett Bobby Ferguson -- a floating head that cheats at video games and holds the universe record for many titles. Apparently the actual Billy Mitchell sued the show despite the fact that it would clearly be protected under parody laws -- as of this week, the case was tossed.

According to the judge, the depiction is a "non-human creature, a giant floating head from outer space," while the real Mitchell is "a human being." Also, the judge noted that the Regular Show character "explodes," while the plaintiff "does not."

New film studio formed by Activision recently hired Stacey Sher as its co-president to go along with the recent hire of a former Disney executive as the other co-president.

Activision Blizzard announced a new co-president for the studio today, film producer Stacey Sher, who has credits on The Hateful Eight, Django Unchained, Pulp Fiction, and World Trade Center starring Nicolas Cage. I saw that damn movie in theatres.

Sher joins other co-president, former Disney executive Nick van Dyk, in a bid to make all kinds of tangled universes. It's starting with a Skylanders animated TV show and plans for a Call of Duty "cinematic universe," with the "possibility of television adaptations" as well. Pulling a Marvel, basically, and trying to make the most money on its assets. This way Blizzard won't have to, say, partner with Legendary to make a Warcraft movie. And will ensure that nothing hits the cinemas besides loud, CGI-filled sequels priming you for the next entry.

Crystal Dynamics announced a new Tomb Raider film is currently in production and will be more of an origin story for the series and Laura Croft character. Also to be influenced by the series games for character direction.
When asked about the impact of Crystal Dynamics’ rebooted version of Lara Croft on the film’s depiction of the character during an interview with IGN, Tomb Raider director Roar Uthaug said that the developer’s ability to make Croft relatable will “definitely” be reflected in the film.

“I think making Lara Croft feel like a real human being, that’s definitely something we want to bring to the big screen as well,” he said. “I think we’ll want to make people relate to Lara as a character. I’m hoping to bring some of my Norwegian sensibilities to the franchise.”

The director went on to say that he’d like to make Tomb Raider “feel like a modern action movie” with a realistic atmosphere. Geneva Robertson-Dworet, who wrote the screenplay for 2017’s Transformers 5, will also be writing Tomb Raider, so let’s hope that “modern action” doesn’t translate into “explosion-centric.” Or, if the Michael Bay angle is unavoidable, at least have Lara Croft transform into a large truck.
