From the “No New Ideas in Hollywood” file, looks like we’re getting another Predator
I think we’re way beyond the point of asking do we really need this movie. With Adrien Brody and possibly Topher Grace I’m just hoping it watchable.

In this version is Freddie wrongly accused back for revenge? Would be an interesting take.

Studios Try to Screw with DVD Release Dates
Stuff like this just baffles me. Hey studios, we’re paying Netflix who is in turn paying you … we just want to give you our money, please let us. You should be so lucky. It’s actually easier to pirate the movie so be grateful for what you have. Idiots.

Video: New animated “Planet Hulk” movie coming direct-to-DVD
I like these direct-to-DVD animated movies. The Hulk Vs. movies were good, so was Superman/Doomsday.

“Alien” prequel is underway, continuing the Hollywood rehashing trend
When Hollywood isn’t figuring out which completely unnecessary remake to trot out next (see: Footloose, set for release June 2010), they spend a lot of time working on “prequels.” It’s another great way to ride on the coattails of past success rather than creating something new. And, unlike the standard sequels, you don’t have to worry about resigning the lead characters to potentially high contracts.
That’s the only reason I can see to green light stuff like an “Alien” prequel.
Ridley Scott, director of the 1979 original, has signed on with 20th Century Fox to create a prequel to the series. His company Scott Free will also produce the film.
I guess three sequels plus the two Aliens vs. Predator movies just wasn’t enough.
