EXCLUSIVE: Dimension Films is making a deal with Tim Hill to direct its reboot of Short Circuit, the 1986 film about an experimental robot manufactured to be a weapon until a lightning strike fills it with intelligence. It runs away and befriends a fractured family, the military in hot pursuit. Hill directed the Illumination pic Hop and Fox's Alvin and the Chipmunks. Dimension optioned the remake rights in 2009, originally signing Paul Blart: Mall Cop helmer Steve Carr and screenwriter Dan Milano. The project has languished and Hill is being brought in to supervise a new script and get the iconic robot Johnny 5 moving. David Foster, who produced the original, is producing with Ryan E. Heppe and John Hyde

WHY?

No Steve Guttenburg, no sale.

22 minutes into Adjustment Bereau. Good movie.

Been watching Auction Hunters on Spike TV since they seem to be playing it for half the day.

It is a decently interesting show.

aparently in the trailer for the Battleship movie, the aliens drop metal things that look like the plastic pegs from the game on the ships.

In spite of the fact that star Johnny Depp, director Gore Verbinski, and producer Jerry Bruckheimer have made billions for Disney with their Pirates of the Caribbean films (3 out of the 4 Disney movies that have earned over a billion dollars were Pirates movies), the Mouse House has abruptly shut down production on the trio’s attempt to revive The Lone Ranger franchise. Casting was well-advanced on the Depp/Verbinski Lone Ranger movie (see “Ruth Wilson Joins The Lone Ranger”), which was set to start shooting in October, but the filmmakers were resisting the studio’s attempts to bring the budget down from $250 million to $200 million, so Disney pulled the plug even though the studio risks alienating Depp and thus putting another Pirates movie, which the studio really wants, in jeopardy.

Every big success in Hollywood breeds imitations—after the Twilight movie was a hit every studio was looking for YA romance bestsellers with supernatural elements. But conspicuous failures can also have a major effect in Tinseltown. The disappointing debut of Jon Favreau’s Cowboys & Aliens has contemporary studio moguls running scared from any project with even the faintest whiff of oats. According to The Hollywood Reporter one inside source explained about the studio's pulling the plug on The Lone Ranger, “The fact that it’s a Western is a definite concern.”

Of course there is a possibility that The Lone Ranger project could be resurrected, if not at Disney at another studio, but that is not very likely in today’s increasingly uncertain economic times with box office revenues down and DVD revenues sinking like a stone. Disney has a number of risky big dollar projects in production already. Andrew Stanton’s John Carter looks like it will end up costing between $250 and $300 million and Sam Raimi’s The Great and Powerful Oz has a budget in the $200 million range. Universal recently pulled the plug on Guillermo Del Toro’s At the Mountains of Madness even though Tom Cruise was attached, and then turned around and axed Ron Howard’s ultra-ambitious three film, two TV series adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower (see “Universal Abandons the Dark Tower”).

The Lone Ranger was slated to debut on December 21st, 2012, the same day that the Brad Pitt-starring zombie epic World War Z opened and just seven days after Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey bowed. Even if The Lone Ranger project is revived, at least there is no way it could debut during that particular highly competitive holiday season. It’s hard to imagine that the thought of having their expensive oater going up against a fantasy powerhouse and a zombie epic didn’t figure in Disney’s decision to torpedo The Lone Ranger.

Hmmm... I would think that a Lone Ranger movie would have more in common with True Grit (which I think did pretty good at the box office) than Cowboys vs. Aliens.

was just watching some so so straight to DVD Antonio Banderas (remember him?) film and all of a sudden Autumn Reeser pops up very naked and very not unpleasant to look at. Certainly made the film a bit more interesting.

A movie based on Danger Girl is in the works from Benderspink with three actresses attached to star, according to Latino Review. Danger Girl was the 90s creation of J. Scott Campbell and Andy Hartnell, published by then Image Comics studio Wildstorm.
The three actresses reportedly attached to the project are Milla Jovovich, Kate Beckinsale, and Sofia Vergara.

Milla and Kate and Sofia, OH MY!

Not sure if this warranted a thread topic, but has anybody been watching the 90's Are All That on TeenNick? The same episodes of All That, Kenan and Kel, Doug and Clarissa play on two loops from 12am-4am.

It would be better if they weren't the same episodes.

Maybe they're trying to say that you shouldn't be watching four hours of Nickelodeon in the middle of the night.

Ed O'Neil gets a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Can I get a whoa Bundy?

Whoooaaa Bundy!

On a totally different note, the ending of the most recent episode of Rescue Me was insane. Fucking cliff hangers. The series finale is going to be interesting... and sad.

Found final season of Rescue Me to be so blah so far. Bit more happened than I expected with this finale, though certainly some of it was obviously hinted at throughout the season. Should be emotional finale, but will see probably be a bunch of rubbish.

Disney made a Bambi 2.

That Bunraku movie is set to be released in theaters on Sept 30 but a decent copy is already out on the internets.

Henry Rowengardner with the beard is freaking me out.

Hen-hen ree-ree Row-row en-en gartner-gartner

Started watching Mad Men the other night on Netflix. Only on ep 3 now, but I'm not completely sold. Not bad tho
