For a while we’ve thought that Akira was dead, but now his friends are resurrecting him and taking him in blob form into production starting in 2010.

With the hiring of Bill Birch, should we be celebrating taking chances on new talent or still lamenting the loss of John August? Either way, Captain Marvel still has a long way to go.

Transformers, watch out. LEGO is going Hollywood. The Danish toymaker behind the snap together building blocks has given the go ahead to bring the toys to the big screen.

My guess is John Landis won’t be allowed within one hundred yards of the set…

The die has been cast. And by die, I mean Ryan Reynolds – as Hal Jordan – for the forthcoming Green Lantern. Start freaking out positively or negatively….now.

The results of a recent court case could put pressure on Warner Bros. to do something with the Superman franchise in the next few years…

Midway Games loss appears to be Warner Bros. Pictures big gain.

Is it just me or should they try to hire Michael J. Fox for the remake and turn it into Middle-Aged Wolf? Just me? Awesome.

For reasons unknown, the project to revive Otomo’s anime classic as a live-action feature is dead. I personally plan on mourning by watching the real Akira.

Paramount especially might be moving toward consolidation in the coming year according to at least one financial analyst.

The L.A. Times’ Hero Complex blog has revealed this evening that Zac Efron, star of such tween hits as High School Musical and High School Musical 3 has been confirmed for the lead role in the upcoming live-action adaptation of Jonny Quest.

Watchmen took another 62% drop in its third weekend. IESB reports that Warner Bros. is no longer interested in making superhero/tentpole movies with an R-rating anymore. Have we seen the end of the days when an R-rated movie could dominate the box office?

There’s this group of outcast kids who live in small town America in 1958. They think their biggest worries are the bullies who torment them and the woes of adolescence. But nope, that’s not the worst of it. Deep in the depths of their little town there lives a killer that is the stuff of nightmares. And he’s coming to the big screen.

The famous graffiti tag of “Who Watches the Watchmen?” is popping up on actual city walls. Can that possibly translate to actual box office buys?
