I was getting tattooed last friday and my tattoo guy Joey and I most of what we talk about is movies, so we dicussed some of the new movies coming out. Just a few are Wolverine, GI Joe, Ironman 2, The Avengers, Thor, Tranformers 2, Spiderman 4 &5 and Batman 3.
I've read that Spiderman 4 & 5 are going to be filmed together ala Lord of the rings. Kirsten Dunst has also reportedly been dropped as Mary Jane, no word on if this is true or not.
Universal Studios is making the best breakthrough though. With unifying all the story lines of The Avengers/Ironman/The Hulk etc. they have so many more concepts to run with. Something the X-Men series should have thought about. Robert Downey Jr. is set to star again in Ironman 2 with Sam L. Jackson having a more prominent role as Nick Fury. Don Cheadle may also be in the movie as War Machine. Cheadle and Downey Jr. are also on board for The Avengers projects.
Supossedly Superman will be getting re-done also. As in saying forget Superman Returns ever happened.
All of these movie have Director Christopher Nolan to thank for them seeing the light of day. If he hadn't done such an amazing job with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight these other directors would not have the visions that they now have. Nolan has gone on record saying that he doesn't think a Batman 3 is a good idea.
Last but not least my favorite toy as a kid was GI Joe's. Finally they are making the real-life movie, granted the animated on was good but with the success of Transformers, the GI Joe producers are looking to capitalize on the nostalgia. Check out some of the pics of Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Duke and others here:
