The Crow reboot gets a director

Wait, this idea has been announced since October of 2009?  Yeah, that's the first time I posted about a possible reboot to the Brandon Lee starring, The Crow.  A rumored director here, a lead actor there, and badda bing, badda boom, it disappeared. 

Well it's been brought back to life this week with this news... the film is set to be directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, who directed 28 Weeks Later.  

The producers gave some insight into the setting of the film, U.S. Mexico border.  The production is set to start in the Fall of this year (I'm assuming a Summer 2012 release).  Last time I posted about the movie being rebooted, I had a great idea, and I'm going to stick by my idea.

What about rebooting the film with a female lead?  More specifically, Milla "Badass" Jovovich?  I'm telling you, the movie will be so much more intriguing if it's a female lead hellbent on revenge and retribution.  It may sound a lot like Alice from the Resident Evil franchise, but this is different.

I hope someone in Hollywood brings this up and the idea is considered.  Any takers?

Latest "Resident Evil: Afterlife" Poster and Comic-Con Coverage

I am really looking forward to Resident Evil: Afterlife in 3D. But I'm not sure why no one else is? I can't say no one, but it was weird at Comic-Con. I didn't wait in line for the panel but asked people as they left the panel what their thoughts were, it wasn't what I expected.

They say Comic-Con can make or break a film. So the studios are usually prepared to offer up their best: their best footage, their biggest stars, etc. So why did Sony insist on showing lousy footage? I'm not sure, I don't have the answer to that. But the reaction was not good. Most fans said it was choppy, looked as though it wasn't finished and just generally bad.

Now I don't like to formulate an opinion based on anything someone else says, that's why I watch movies before I consider them "bad". So I'm going to wait it out and hope I just talked to the wrong people walking out of the panel.

Milla Jovovich Wardrobe Test for The Three Musketeers movie

I don't know how they do it, but we LOVE IT... /slashfilm got a picture of Milla Jovovich's wardrobe test for the upcoming The Three Musketeers film. We've been posting about the movie for a few months now, but this is the first peek into the design of the film. Also it's important to note that the pictures were taken by Jovovich herself. You can see she was taking the pictures on her camera phone. Here are 2 of the pictures, click the /slashfilm link for the rest.

Quickie: Milla Jovovich in Resident Evil: After Life

UGO has posted a bad ass picture that MUST BE SHARED! Miss Milla Jovovich in Resident Evil: After Life. This looks awesome. Can't wait to see the movie.

3 Musketeers is really happening and I may eat my own words

Back in September, I was talking some smack about the new Paul W.S. Anderson adaptation of The Three Musketeers. I may eat my own words after the casting news reported yesterday!

Let me explain:
Ray Stevenson, Luke Evans, Mads Mikkelsen, Logan Lerman, Christoph Waltz

Lerman (Percy Jackson) as the young, witty D'Artagnan. Stevenson (Punisher: War Zone), Evans (Clash of the Titans) and Mikkelsen (Casino Royale) are also rumored. Waltz (Inglourious Basterds) as Cardinal Richelieu?! Are you kidding me?!

No, there's more... Milla Jovovich in the female lead!? Ummm... yes please! You can have my 15 bucks and I will gladly see this cast in the biggest piece of crap movie ever!

The movie is still in the "rumor" phase of casting, but the 3D part we talked about last year seems to be solid.

This movie is a completely different version than the one being developed by Warner Brothers. That version of the Musketeers is rumored to be directed by Doug Liman.

I better wait to see that cast before I cast judgment again and eat my own words... AGAIN. I'm gonna keep a close eye on this one and let you know as soon as anything comes up or is confirmed!

Quickie: Resident Evil: After Life trailer

We posted some pictures of this film a few days ago, now enjoy the trailer.... Resident Evil: After Life! Milla! Woot!

Resident Evil: Afterlife delayed

Back in July we told you about the Resident Evil sequel; Resident Evil: Afterlife. Well, don't get too excited, but stay a little excited. It's still going to happen, it's still going to be made. And, best part is, Milla Jovovich is back!

Only bad news is that it's being pushed back from August 27th, 2010 to January 14th, 2011. Not a huge deal, but the January date is interested. Not a big month for action flicks, that's more like August. January is usually a slow month in the industry, but this should give it a nice boost. Let's see, you going to watch it?

The Crow to be rebooted, HERE'S MY VOTE:

It's been announced that The Crow will be rebooted. For those who don't remember, The Crow is the amazing action/drama starring the late Brandon Lee, in his final role. The movie came out in 1994, and has been followed up with a few, unmemorable sequels.
I don't want to tell Hollywood what to do, but to me, a reboot, should be different. Christopher Nolan's Batman is far different from Tim Burton's Batman. And FAR FAR different than Joel Schumacher's Batman. That, to me, is the definitive reboot; not many like this in Hollywood. So, here's my vote: Milla Jovovich as the lead in a new 'Crow' movie.

She is so talented, so gifted and so beautiful; I want to see a dark, vicious side to her. I want to see her seek revenge against those who have done her wrong. How bad ass would that be? How different from the original, yet keeping the same idea? She is a proven action star with the Resident Evil trilogy, she could do it! Let's start a petition eh? Who's with, or against me?

The Fourth Kind... the most creative trailer ever

The Fourth Kind is a new movie starring Milla Jovovich as a psychologist in a small Alaskan town. The film is based on actual events. People within the community are complaining of visions, the scary part is, they're all seeing the same vision. The trailer is by far one of the most unique I've ever seen. The trailer shows film footage, side by side with footage taped during the patient sessions. We also see Milla Jovovich speaking to us directly, to set up the clip. Amazing, and although "I don't do scary movies", I am fascinated by this trailer and think I will be seeing the movie... enjoy.

Quickie: Resident Evil 4

The most awesome Milla Jovovich will be coming back for a 4th time as "Alice" in "Resident Evil: Afterlife" reports ShockTillYouDrop.

There is no director attached just yet, but the film already has an expected release date of September 17, 2010.

The action movie will loosely follow the basic elements of the video game franchise, much like the first 3 installments.

I personally loved the first two. I thought they had just the right amount of pointless zombie killing action fun. Plus Milla. You can't go wrong with a gorgeous woman who can kick ass and just happens to be a fine actress.

I haven't seen the third one, but I'm sure it was on par with the other two. After all, they made a combined $378 million in worldwide box offices.
