Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire Are Back! "Spider-Man 4"

Sony has cut a deal with director Sam Raimi and actor Tobey Maguire to return for the fourth "Spider-Man" adventure! Rumor has it that Dunst is expected to return as well.

Sony hopes to film both "Spider-Man 4" and "Spider-Man 5" back-to-back. There are no details regarding how Sony got the team back, but do we really need to be told? We all know Sony must have ditched out half the budget of "Spider-Man 3" to get Maguire back; God knows it probably took just as much for Raimi.

Regarding villains, Nikki Finke's Deadline Hollywood Daily reports that “once you find out who the villain is, you’ll know who’s playing it.” My guess, and the guess of many, many others, is Lizard will finally make his movie appearance. Dylan Baker has played Dr. Conners for the last three movies-- It's a perfect set up.

Another possibility is the return of Sandman. Thomas Hayden Church's character floated away freely at the end of "Spider-Man 3" and I wouldn't mind seeing some closure with that.

Well it's good to know Raimi and Maguire are back with a superior scribe! Who is everyone's guess for the villain? Lizard? Sandman? Someone else.

If you don't want to guess, rest assured you'll find out eventually: "Spider-Man 4" is set for a May 2011 release.

Ghostbusters III in the Works?

"Ghostbusters III" has been in an unusual place for a long time. Last year Dan Aykroyd said the next film was to be animated. Then, (and I had no desire to post this because it was video game related) it was rumored that the "Ghostbusters III" project would be a well-written video game. Now we come to this. Take the next bit with a grain of salt. This information is subject to change since the people behind the "Ghostbusters III" project can't decide what to do.

The writer's of television's hit series "The Office," Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg, have been bought by Sony to write a script for a "next generation" Ghostbusters sequel. The script is said to include all of the original cast, yet no one has signed up for it either.

Ivan Reitman, director of "Ghostbusters," and "Ghostbusters II" is also involved in the project. So it looks like "Ghostbusters III" is being re-born as a movie. I'm not entirely sure what the deal is with the video game, nor do I really care, but if a new movie with the original cast comes about I'd be stoked. If a new movie without the original cast comes about and we get a "Son of the Mask" type of deal... I'll be less than thrilled. I do hope "Ghostbusters III" turns in to something special.

"Ghost Rider 2?" Oh no...

With movies like these continuously being announced you would think it was some sort of sign of the apocalypse. However, we're still here. So I shudder to think of how much worse a movie will have to be than "Ghost Rider" and "30 Days of Night" to alert us of our doom.

Perhaps it will be the sequel to "Ghost Rider?" Nicolas Cage recently announced that "Ghost Rider 2" was in the works and heading toward Euorpe! (Oh yes! 'Cause different locations mean something radically different from the last one.)

The man compared Johnny Blaze's new story to "The DaVinci Code." (Did anyone keep they're eyes from rolling at that one? Just checking!) Johnny will be connected with the church in some way and have to connect with various religions in the next movie. No word on any villains or anything, but it sounds he's pretty serious about the project.

I find the concept of the Ghost Rider interesting, even if I think "HellBoy" has done it better. But Nic Cage seems to be only interested in doing half-assed action flicks and if the sequel is going to be anything like the first movie, it's a lost cause.

Two-Face's Official End

SPOILER ALERT: If for some reason beyond human understanding you have not seen "The Dark Knight" and do not want to be spoiled, do not read this.

There seems to have been a lot of confusion based on the ending of "The Dark Knight." The incredible film left some fanboys believing that the film's hero-turned-antagonist was still alive after Batman crashed in to him to save Gordon's son.

For those hoping Two-Face's death was a cover-up and he may appear in the next film, buckle up-- Cause he ain't getting up according to Aaron Eckhart. Superherohype ambushed him at a premiere for the following scoop:

CS/SHH!: Is Harvey Dent alive?
Aaron Eckhart: No. He is dead as a door nail.

CS/SHH!: So he's not coming back?
Eckhart: He ain't coming back baby!

CS/SHH!: I was hoping he would.
Eckhart: No. I asked Chris [Nolan] that question and he goes, "You're dead" before I could even get the question out of my mouth. "Hey Chris, am I?" "You're dead!" Alright, cool.

CS/SHH!: That's not a problem in comic book movies. You could still come back.
Eckhart: I think in contract negotiations it's a problem.

CS/SHH!: So you were never signed on for another film?
Eckhart: No, I'm not coming back. I think unfortunately, Heath [Ledger] was supposed to go on and that didn't work out. I'm nobody. I'm a cog. I have no say over this sort of stuff. I'm sure that there's so many other characters that they could whip together. I heard Angelina Jolie was going to be Catwoman or something like that. I thought that was a great idea. I'd like to be in that one.

CS/SHH!: It must be gratifying that so many people responded to your character.
Eckhart: Yeah, I dig it. Write your Congressman. I like that for the first time in my career I'm getting fan mail from kids and 8-year-olds. "My name is Bill. I really liked the film." I've never had that before. I think that's fun. I think someone told me they're going to be Harvey Two-Face for Halloween which is cool. I said to two kids the other day, "Did you see Batman yet?" Then I come to find out like two seconds later they've seen it four times. People are really going back to see it. My parents saw it I think 12 [times] so far. They're sick that it's going out of the theaters.

I didn't think he was alive by the end of the movie. Frankly, I think bringing him back for a third would be a cop-out. Yes, it is sad that Two-Face didn't get a lot of screen time, but I was totally happy that his character was fulfilled. (Which is far more than I can say for Venom in "Spider-Man 3.") I'm very much okay that he's gone for good.

Poll - How Would You Rate "Tropic Thunder?"

The results have long since been in, but I've been busy in an alternate reality called..."reality." Anyway, of the nine people who either saw "Tropic Thunder" or just visit my blog, I don't care which, here's the minute consensus:






Comedy Classic - 0% - 0 Votes

Funny and Fun - 77% - 7 Votes

Good - 22% - 2 Votes

Meh - 0% - 0 Votes

Crap - 0% - 0 Votes


Well that was fun. I for one really liked the movie. I wouldn't call it a comedy classic, but the winning consensus fits the mold pretty well. For those who have yet to see it, go.
