Got a bunch of updates, so PAY ATTENTION!

Ghostbusters 3 - We've known that a script was being worked on by Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky (producers of NBC's The Office), but now we have word from Dan Aykroyd answering some online questions for The Boston Globe that "Script is commenced early summer. Hope to be in production by late fall 2009." Weird wording, but this is great news for everyone who has ever hoped for another Ghostbusters.

Terminator: Salvation - Linda Hamilton is in negotiations to reprise her role of Sarah Connor for the next installment of the Terminator series...sort of. MTV Movies Blog reports that while she won't be appearing on screen, her role is said to simply be voiceover. This is a nice way to bridge the mythology gap that always seems to exist between franchise sequels that are more than a few years apart. This will be a nice way to give cohesion to the series, and help us to continue forgetting Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.

The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn - The blog Upcoming Film Scores reports that John Williams will be scoring the first installment of the forthcoming Tintin trilogy which is set to be directed by longtime collaborator Steven Spielberg. This isn't much of a surprise as there aren't too many Spielberg films Williams hasn't composed music for. This just guarantees that we'll have a great score to accompany what should be a great start to a hopefully fun new film series.

Ebert and Roeper Return? - In his weekly online Q&A from his website, Roger Ebert fielded a question that resulted in some interesting information. In running through the gamut of all the review shows he's done, he concluded with "Another chapter to this saga will begin when Richard [Roeper] and I shortly announce a new movie review program." This development seems problematic considering Ebert's health conditions and his lack of ability to speak. Not sure what kind of show this will result in. Maybe someone will read his reviews or maybe Ebert is gonna review movies Stephen Hawking style. Either way I will continue to love Ebert's top notch film analysis.

Watchmen - At a press junket (information via Collder) director Zack Snyder said that the final running time of Watchmen for the DVD release of the film will be 3 hours and 10 minutes (that's not including the apparent 15 minutes of animated footage used in what is called the Black Freighter elements). As I have not yet read Watchmen (simply so I can watch the movie objectively) I'm not entirely sure what the Black Freighter portion of the story consists of, but this DVD is going to be chock full of goodness for Watchmen fans.

Superman Returns Sequel - After some poking around on the Legendary Pictures website, film fan and blogger Alex Litel noticed some slightly eyebrow raising information about an upcoming follow-up to the disappointing franchise reboot Superman Returns. The website lists the title Superman Unleashed as part of its films in development with a vague and brief plot synopsis: "Ramping up the action of its esteemed predecessor, the sequel to Superman Returns promises to raise the stakes and take the audience to heights of action that no other superhero movie can achieve." This information on the site has since been taken down but screenshots of the site can be seen at Alex's blog.
