Film news you don't want to hear ...

[Martino]

What film news have you heard that you really rather wish you hadn't?

I've just heard that Steven Spielberg is filming a new version of Herbert George Well's novel The War of the Worlds. Set in modern times. With kids in it.

[FrankieY18]

isn't he doing the american version of infernal affairs too?

[Faithless]

Well, when I heard that Spielberg was involved with Memoirs of Geisha, I was like WTF.

ender's game is gonna be delayed... again :frown: maybe it's a good thing though. the entire "kids saving the world" thing is getting to be a bit old.

[moser]

isn't he doing the american version of infernal affairs too?

Martin Scorcese's directing it. Didn't need to hear about the remake of Infernal Affairs. Or at least if they're remaking it, they could have cast better eye candy than DiCaprio and Damon.

the entire "kids saving the world" thing is getting to be a bit old.

Jurassic Park IV. This franchise is stale.

[nameless]

[PropellerheadCP]

The fact that Paul Anderson (the director of Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil, Aliens vs. Predator...etc.) still has projects lined up for him.



The fact that every other Asian film that becomes a blockbuster, is being "remade" in Hollywood.

[rice cracker]

Blade Trinity being delayed until December. *cry*

[PropellerheadCP]

It looks like George Lucas is going to write Indiana Jones 4, HIMSELF!!!!!

Charlize Theron Hurt on Film Set

LOS ANGELES -- Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron was injured while shooting her new Paramount film, "Aeon Flux," in Germany, but her representatives aren't saying how badly she was hurt.
Theron suffered the unspecified injury while doing her own stunts in a wire-hanging action sequence, the movie's publicist, Jeanmarie Carrasco, told The Associated Press Tuesday.
"No cuts, no broken bones," Carrasco said. "I think it was something less tangible than that.
(Story Continues Below...)
... Something vague and nagging."
No one else was hurt, Carrasco added.
Filming in Berlin has been halted for several weeks to allow Theron to recover. It wasn't known if the injury would require script changes or when the movie would resume production.
Theron's publicist said the 29-year-old actress wasn't hospitalized.
"She did sustain an injury on the set. It's a very physically demanding role," said Theron publicist Amanda Silverman.
"Aeon Flux" is set centuries in the future at a time when a plague has wiped out most of the population. Theron plays the title character, a sleek, sexy commando who is part of a rebellion against the remaining government.
The "Aeon Flux" story was once depicted in a series of animated shorts on MTV.
Theron, who won an Academy Award for her role in "Monster," stars in "Head in the Clouds," set for release Sept. 17. She follows up her best-actress Oscar as a French socialite living it up on the eve of World War II.

I don't know... she's a sexy woman. SEXY! With her in the Aeon Flux outfit has already sparked an interest.
