Dungeons & Dragons is getting another adaptation. Chris Pine signed up to what will become an ensemble cast. Written and to be directed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis, who directed Game Night and wrote Spider-Man Homecoming. Planning to start shooting in Q1 next year in Belfast. The good kind of Belfast shooting, I mean.

Next movie, after Lightyear, has been announced. Due 16 June 2023. Directed by Peter Sohn of The Good Dinosaur and the Partly Cloudy short. Set in a city where fire, air, land and water people live together. The man characters are Ember and Wade. Fire and water people, if it was too subtle for you. The water and fire pair are about to discover how much they have in common. No teaser or anything yet, just a title and concept picture.

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tech/news/a552739/lovefilm-instant-to-become-amazon-prime-instant-video.html I used to be with Lovefilm, but left when they stopped renting games. At the time their streaming video service was nice as an added bonus on the subscription, but not something I'd have paid for on its own due to a poor library and apps only available on a very limted number of devices with rubbish update support. Not sure if this will tempt me away from Netflix, their original programming (House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, Arrested Development) blow away Amazon's rather uninspiring efforts in that area and without the introductory offer it's actually more expensive than Netflix (only by about £7 but still). The main argument for that price is the Amazon Prime delivery which i wouldn't particularly want. Still, more competition is good for us customers, not sure I'd want to be subscribed to two streaming services, but if they significantly improve their library I might take a look eventually.

The latest in a long line of remaking everything except the racist one which shall be forgotten. Stars Halle Bailey as Ariel and Melissa McCarthy as Ursula.

Prequel time, also based on the prequel book. Coming 17 November 2023. It's about Coriolanus Snow when he was 18. His family lineage is falling from grace, but when he is assigned a girl tribute for the 10th Hunger Games, he sees a chance to turn the situation around. Will he succeed? Yes, he will, because the other movies have already been out. There's a teaser, but it's just some CG leading to a logo rather than containing any footage.

Christopher Nolan's next is Oppenheimer, a biographical thriller about J. Robert Oppenheimer, one of those who created the atomic bomb. Not due out until July 2023. He's assembling quite a cast, with Cillian Murphy as Oppenheimer and also Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Rami Malek, Benny Safdie, Josh Hartnett, Dane DeHaan, Jack Quaid, Matthew Modine, Dylan Arnold, David Krumholtz, Alden Ehrenreich, Michael Angarano, Kenneth Brannagh, Scott Grimes, Christopher Denham, David Dastmalchian, Louise Lombard and Jason Clarke. It'll be shot in IMAX and, for apparently the first time ever, some sections in black and white IMAX. After falling out with WB over their pandemic simultaneous streaming release changes, he's taking this to Universal, who are promising a theatrical window even longer than pre-pandemic.

I know they rebooted it 4 years ago, but they're doing it again. With Bay still involved. And they're hoping to add quality by hiring a writer that wrote one other movie, in 2013. Andrew Dodge, who wrote Bad Words. Though he's also working on Space Jam 2. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/new-ninja-turtles-movie-works-1121467

It's moving ahead, being written right now, and with Maverick back in full force, rather than the initial plan for him having a small role. It's going to explore how navy aviation is changing, with dogfighting all but gone and the rise of drones. Hopefully not a remake of Stealth. It's being written by Justin Marks, whose theatrical movie credits include Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li and...that's it. He's got other stuff in pre-production, but what's released isn't a great record to judge him by. Given the videogame heavy nature of the forum, I'll just mention he's also going to potentially ruin Shadow of the Colossus and Dead Space.

Chad Stahelski, Keanu and Lance Reddick are back, at least. Joining them will be Donnie Yen, Scott Adkins and Hiroyuki Sanada. Japanese-British singer Rina Sawayama will also debut. It's set to start filming in summer in France, Germany and Japan, with a release date of 27 May 2022.

It’s nearly that time of year again. The 26th of April, is Alien Day, a day celebrated by fans of the Alien franchise the world over. I asked Bard to tell us more: “Alien Day was created by a group of fans of the Alien franchise in 2015. The date, April 26, was chosen because it is the designation of the moon in the first Alien film: LV-426 is the name of the moon where the xenomorphs are discovered in the 1979 film by Ridley Scott. In 2016, 20th Century Fox, the studio that produces the Alien films, began officially sponsoring Alien Day. The company has held events and promotions to celebrate the day, including screenings of the films, video game tournaments, and costume contests. Alien Day is now celebrated by fans all over the world. It is a day to come together and celebrate the Alien franchise, one of the most popular and influential science fiction franchises of all time. LV-426 is a fictional planet in the Alien franchise. It is a moon of the gas giant Calpamos in the Zeta Reticuli system, 39 light-years from Earth. The planet is home to a variety of lifeforms, including the Xenomorph, a deadly and aggressive creature that is the main antagonist of the franchise.” Thanks, buddy! So, are you observing this sacred holiday this year? Taking the day off work? Going to see the movies at the cinema, or on Disney+ ? Or just using the excuse for another cheeky midweek bottle of wine? I will be watching, uhh, The Predator (2018) for the first time, and Aliens (1986) again afterwards. Not sure if there will be any official announcements from Fox or whoever, but there are lots of projects and tie-ins on the go, so we shall see.

Those maniacs. They're doing another. Directed by Dan Trachtenberg. I've still not seen The Predator.

A sequel to the 90s Twister, apparently following the daughter of the original two characters, who has also become a storm chaser. Daisy Edgar-Jones is in the lead role, with Glen Powell co-starring. Anthony Ramos has also just been announced. It's being directed by Lee Isaac Chung, who seems to be having an interesting career, though not much action other than an episode of The Mandalorian that had some. It'll start shooting next month.

Finally, they're making the young Willy Wonka prequel the world has been screaming out for. Not due until 17 March 2023. They hope to start shooting this September, Covid permitting.

Apple have nabbed a movie which is under development about Tetris. Rather than some earlier effort which apparently was supposed to be some sort of epic Tetris-based narrative somehow, this seems to be about the game itself, development, gaining popularity and all that. Taron Egerton is playing Henk Rogers, who first secured rights to distribute the game on consoles. Other roles still being finalised. Jon S, Baird, of Stan & Ollie, directing.
-
This is the new entry in the CG series, starring Chris, Claire, Jill, Leon and Rebecca. It's exciting to see the main characters all together for once. Hopefully it turns out to be a watchable and entertaining flick. A poster and new pic have emerged on twitter.
