Some news...

Hey guys! I have quite a bit to get into, so lets just go ahead a get started...

- As some of you may know, Lawrence Kasdan, writer of Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark, has signed on to pen the script for the upcoming adaptation of the cult classic, Robotech...

- Robert Downey Jr. is in talks to star in Dreamworks/Universal's possible tentpole film, Cowboys and Aliens, based on the graphic novel of the same name...

- The upcoming Astro Boy adaptation has finally had it's voice cast announced...Thanks to comingsoon for the info

Slated for worldwide theatrical release in 2009, "Astro Boy" will feature the voices of Academy Award®-winning actor Nicolas Cage, Donald Sutherland, Nathan Lane, Bill Nighy and Eugene Levy with Freddie Highmore in the title role. David Bowers is directing ASTRO BOY from a screenplay written by Timothy Harris, with Maryann Garger producing.

What do you guys think??

- In uncalled for remake news, Nick Cage and Eva Mendes are set to star in the remake of Bad Leiutenant...if anyone has seen that film, than you know why this is not going to work...I love the original too, it's just like the Death Race 2000 remake...why Hollywood, why?

- Finally, I am sad to say the FX genius, Stan Winston, has passed away. He won Oscars for Aliens, T:2, and Jurassic Park, and he will be sorely missed, he was 62...

Alright you guys...come back tomorow for more news, and maybe a top 10...
