Bad News, Good News, and Probably More Good News

  • First the bad news. If you haven’t heard already, iMAGi studios has closed its doors earlier this week. After reviving a few movies, which were more than decent. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to keep the doors open.The problem now? The most recent film they were developing, Gatchaman, is more than likely dead. Remember those trailers? Yeah you probably won’t see that anymore. Never did see the show too much as a kid, but this did seem a bit better than previous movies. It may be released on DVD, but if it wasn’t finished, its less likely that chance will happen either. Too bad for the short lived company.
  • Now for some Good News; Christopher Nolan’s third Batman movie may be in development. As David S. Goyer has announced leaving Flash Forward to focus on more movie scripts. Which is more than likely the 3rd Batman movie. As an added bonus: Warner Bros. has also announced Christopher Nolan will take over the Superman franchise. I still have yet to understand this outcome, since Superman has a bit of a worse run than Batman through the years (And also for a fact I didn’t think Nolan would take on a project like this). But we may see a Batman/Superman movie. Maybe. By the way think about this: David Tennant as The Riddler?
  • Captain America has announced the villain for the movie. Kinda easy since it takes place during World War II, but if you don’t want a spoiler, skip now. Highlight: Its Red Skull.
  • The next Spider-Man will be in 3D. Not sure how I feel about that. I’m still not even sure of a reboot, which goes back to high school.
  • Jaws 3D has been announced, which is a reboot. I think. No. Wait. Yea-No. Probably. Maybe. It stars Tracy Morgan. Its a start for Jaws 19 being released in 2015.

That's too bad about iMAGI. I know they recently laid off the majority of their staff but apparently that's something they've done in the past and then they rehire them when they get funding. I guess this time they couldn't pull it off.


That Jaws rumor is too far out there. I don' buy it.
