How the Predator will look in New PREDATORS Film.

As you now Robert Rodriguez is producing a new Predator film, with Nimrod Antal directing. The movie will be called Predators, and is set to be released July 7, 2010. The film involves an intense group of people stranded on a Predator planet discovering unspeakable horrors, that are not always from outside their group.

The guy doing the special effects on the film is Howard Berger for the effects shop KNB. He recently did an interview in which he talks about what the predator is going to look like, and I think your going to like what he say’s.

I loved what the Predator looked like in the first film, he was real and gritty! After the first film, especially with the Aliens Vs. Predator movies, the costumes sucked. They just looked cheap and slapped together. They looked fake! They aren’t suppose to look fake! The rest of the effects in those film sucked as well. This new Predators film is going back to the original source of the costume design to bring it back to life.

Berger, who used to work for Stan Winston had this to say:
'We wanted to have the Predator look as it did in the original film. We went back and looked at the original. I actually worked in the shop with Stan Winston on the first film. It was great to be able to go back to the series having not been involved in any of the sequels, and it was also great to be able to make sure we built them as Stan Winston did.'

That just makes me happy. What makes me even more happy is what Berger has to say about what they look like, because he’s seen the new outfits.

'They look really fantastic. There’s a whole bunch of cool [Predator's] in the film, and everyone’s going to be very happy that we’ve been very faithful to the Stan Winston designs. It’s out next year. It’s shooting very soon.'

I’m excited to see how what this movie ends up being. I was not a fan of the Aliens Vs. Predators crap at all. So it will be cool to see a new Predator story unfold, with decent looking predator costumes and effects. What do you all think?

Freddy Krueger Still Looks Like Freddy Krueger.

Providing some reassurance for Nightmare on Elm Street purists (if such a thing could exist in a post-Freddy vs. Jason age) worried about changes in the upcoming remake, Platinum Dunes released the above shot of the new, seemingly-unaltered Freddy, Jackie Earle Haley. Of course, the face is still hidden, so there's still a 50/50 shot one of the producers decided it would be "really cool" if Krueger's face was horribly disfigured save for this totally awesome goatee he manages to keep groomed.

Carl Rinsch Not Confirmed to Direct Alien Prequel?

It seems like plans for a remake of a sci-fi classic has hit a little snag. According to Entertainment Weekly (as reported by The Playlist), it seems that director Carl Rinsch might not be at the helm of the new Alien prequel.

The site is reporting that 20th Century Fox is reluctant to greenlight the film with Rinsch, primarily a TV commercial director, at the helm and wants to have director Ridley Scott at the helm. Rinsch has worked for Scott's company, RSA, for years now and the site also claims that Rinsch not only works for Scott's company, but is romantically involved with his daughter, Jordan.

Neither Scott nor Rinsch responded to the site's inital report.

Is Arnold Schwarzenegger in for Predators?

In a story from Moviehole, Robert Rodriguez is overtly courting Arnold Schwarzenegger for his Predators movie.

Apparently, the Governor of California is a little busy at the moment so he hasn't responded, yet. The biggest problem with this is that the shoot is coming up soon so Schwarzenegger needs to get in touch with Rodriguez if this is going to happen.

Moviehole's source goes on to say that a role has even been written for Arnold. Rodriguez does not see Predators as a remake but rather a sequel to the original film.

The early rumors have Schwarzenegger coming back as Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer, "the canon-armed Special Forces leader" who battled the original extraterrestrial beast in the first film. Arnold's character will not be the lead in the film but one whose role should take a couple of days to shoot.,

Initially, Schwarzenegger had been asked to come aboard as Dutch for a small role in Stephen Hopkins' Predator 2. This never happened and Gary Busey ended up playing the part.

Predators is slated to come to theaters July 2010 from 20th Century Fox.

Wes Craven não está feliz com notícia do remake de 'A Hora do Pesadelo'.

O produtor e realizador Wes Craven (A Nightmare On Elm Street, Scream, Cursed) não gostou de saber que seu primeiro sucesso nos cinemas, 'Pesadelo em Elm Street', ganhará um remake.

"Se fizerem um filme melhor, talvez apague o original. Se não conseguirem, o original parecerá ainda melhor. Actualmente, eles estão preferindo produzir remakes a continuações porque, em algum momento, uma sequela não é mais justificável, mas você sempre pode fazer novas versões dos filmes originais", finalizou.

O começo das filmagens do remake estão previstas para 27 de Abril, em Chicago.
Além disso, a Warner Bros. já marcou a data de estreia: 16 de Abril de 2010.

Director de videoclipes, Samuel Bayer, vai realizar este, seu primeiro filme. Ele realizou videoclipes para os Cranberries e Garbage, inclusive 'Smells Like Teen Spirit', do Nirvana

Form disse que o visual de Freddy não sofrerá alterações, e a camisa e garras serão mantidas.
A Platinum Dunes é responsável por várias refilmagens, como 'O Massacre da Serra Elétrica' e 'Horror em Amityville'.
No filme, um violador de crianças que foi queimado vivo pela vizinhança encontra um novo meio de atacar, agora através dos sonhos das pessoas.

BOX OFFICE BEAT DOWN: Jason Takes the Box Office as Friday the 13th Slashes Its Way to $42.2 Million.

Jason took the box office this weekend, with his Friday the 13th earning an estimated $42.2 million dollars. That is the biggest weekend take of the year thus far, and it beats the cumulative earnings of any previous Friday the 13th ever released with the exception of Freddy vs. Jason. This is certainly good news for both producers Platinum Dunes and longtime fans, as they are pretty much guaranteed a sequel now that their favorite slasher has proven his ability to hack up the bank.

In the second and third place spots were two holdovers from previous weeks. The romantic comedy He's Just Not That Into You dropped down one space to number two with another $19.6 million to its name. In just two weeks, this Valentine-themed charmer has earned an estimated $55 million. Coming in at third is the little Fox action film that has surprised many. Taken earned another $19.2 million, bringing its earnings up to $77.9 million. It should reach $100 million in the states before it completely drops off the top ten. Its current worldwide grosses stands at $146.9 million. That's a pretty decent take for a film that didn't really get any promotional push at all.

This week's other two major new releases didn't fair quite as well as their killer counterpart. Disney's consumer comedy Confessions of a Shopaholic dropped in at number four with $15.4 million. And Sony's bank thriller The International rested itself into the number seven position, only pulling in a lousy $10 million. We probably won't hear much from either of these two films in the coming weeks.

Next week will find Madea returning to the big screen in Tyler Perry's Madea Goes to Jail. And two horny teenage boys will join a cheerleading squad in Fired Up. Who will win? It's anybody's guess.

Weekend Box Office

1) Friday the 13th $42.2 million
2) He's Just Not That Into You $19.6 million
3) Taken $19.2 million
4) Confessions of a Shopaholic $15.4 million
5) Coraline $15.3 million
6) Paul Blart: Mall Cop $11.7 million
7) The International $10 million
8) The Pink Panther 2 $9 million
9) Slumdog Millionaire $7.1 million
10) Push $6.9 million
