WB making a movie based off "Mandrake The Magician"

I love magic. In fact, I used to practice a little bit in my free-time. However, I was never very good, despite my better efforts. My love for magic gets me really excited, as WB is producing a film based off a comic called Mandrake the Magician.

The comic was created and takes place in the 1930’s, but WB is looking to give the film the SHERLOCK HOLMES treatment. Hit the break for more! Continue reading “WB making a movie based off "Mandrake The Magician"” →

Pitch for movie about Acme Warehouse picked up by WB

I’ve never kept my love for all things Looney Tunes a secret, in fact I can remember being quite vocal about it in the recent past. Recently, WB has brought back their famous franchise as a series of shorts, and now they want to bank off the series.

Bradley Cooper to play THE FLASH?

Almost everyone has been on the “Ryan Reynolds should play The Flash” bandwagon, it seems, but with his commitment to THE GREEN LANTERN and possible commitment to DEADPOOL, it’s very unlikely he will take up the role of yet another superhero.

So who else would be up for the role of our favorite speedster? Well, Bradley Cooper would, of course. Continue reading “Bradley Cooper to play THE FLASH?” →

Doug Liman definitely on ALL YOU NEED IS KILL

A couple months ago, we got word that Doug Liman had dropped out of production of his take on The Three Musketeers and was supposedly on a film called ALL YOU NEED IS KILL. The film was an interesting fit for Liman, but one that could potentially turn into something incredible. From the looks of it, Warner Bros. agrees, as they have hired him as director.

The film is said to be like “GROUNDHOG DAY meets STARSHIP TROOPERS,” as a young soldier must relive a battle against an alien force over and over. This is a pairing that sounds odd, yet intriguing, if handled well. Liman’s hands seem capable of the task. Continue reading “Doug Liman definitely on ALL YOU NEED IS KILL” →

MGM and WB really want Peter Jackson to direct THE HOBBIT films

THE HOBBIT seems like a crazy mess right now, with rumors flying everywhere about who might take up the director’s chair now that Guillermo del Toro is no longer on the project. Just yesterday we reported that the studios behind the films, WB and MGM, were courting HARRY POTTER director David Yates to take up the mantle. This is still true according to today’s reports, but it appears he is second in the running, only behind Peter Jackson.
