Pacific Rim, Guillermo del Toro returns

Good news. The movie ‘Pacific Rim’ will mark the return of Guillermo del Toro to the directors seat since Hellboy 2. Pacific Rim is a science fiction movie about ‘giant monsters versus giant robots.’ Humanity is deploying soldiers in giant mechanical suits to battle with colossal creatures. These creatures seem to emerge from a dimensional rift in the Pacific Ocean. Pacific Rim aims for a summer 2013 release.

The Wonderful Land of Oz (Marvel)

 

My latest post reminded me of the comics made by  Marvel. Artist Skottie Young and Eric Shanower brought the classic back to life with their great skills. The designs from the characters and the land of Oz are great, really a piece of art.

Oz: The Great and Powerful (2013)

I guess Sam Raimi's next project won't be a next movie about The Evil Dead. He's working on a prequel of the Wizard of Oz written by L. Frank Baum. The story is told from the viewpoint of the Wizard of Oz, it's about how he came to rule in the city. Bruce 'Ash' Campbell wil be starring in it, as well as Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz and James Franco as the Wizard. Johnny Depp passed on the role of the Wizard.

Ico / Shadow of the Colossus HD remake

Ico and Shadow of the Colossus have a special place in my heart. It’s great to hear that a HD remake of both games is coming out on the PS3. Team Ico provided an unique gaming experience with both games, I am very stoked to see how the HD rendering will show me the battles againt the Colossi. Now give us The Last Guardian please.

Real Steel

The movie 'Real Steel' is hitting the theaters soon. It's about a coach and his fighting robot, Hugh Jackman is starring in a lead role. The imagery around this movie caught my attention. Check the official website on http://www.steelgetsreal.com/

Gravity



In an interview with Guillermo Del Toro I found out about the upcoming movie named 'Gravity.' Sandra Bullock and George Clooney will play the leading roles. Bullock plays an astronaut who has to return to earth after a accident in space. The director from 'Children of Men' is aiming for a 2012 release.

Evil Dead remake?

There might be a fourth Evil Dead film. Bruce Campbell's reaction on the rumors were: 'Believe in the remake, Dawg! The Project is real. In the works. Cool as hell. Scary as hell.' Sam Raimi is working on the production of the movie. It's unknown if Bruce 'Ash' Campbell will return to the series.
