Vulture says
Michael Bay is in final negotiations to direct a new Transformers film, insiders tell Vulture. In recent days, Bay has been assembling a cast for a long-gestating project that even predates Bay’s entry into planet-destroying, Pain and Gain, based on a three-part New Times story about the infamous “Sun Gym gang” a group of dimwitted Miami bodybuilders who kidnapped, tortured and robbed a Florida businessman but got their comeuppance when their left-for-dead victim hires a private eye to hunt them down. Insiders tell Vulture that Bay has been seeking to adapt the sordid revenge tale almost since its publication in 1999, and that it’s proving the major blandishment in getting Bay to commit to launching a new Transformers cycle. "Without Pain, there’s no tit for tat," explains one person familiar with the talks, "That’s Paramount’s leverage."
Imagine the charisma. The eyebrow raises. The undeniable presence… all in the form of a smooth, inanimate stone sitting on your desk. That’s right—Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, but as an actual pet rock.
Fans are practically begging Jim Carrey to dust off his Hawaiian shirt and talk out of his backside one more time in Ace Ventura 3!
TNS: In a new interview, Corey Feldman has opened up about losing a role on What's Eating Gilbert Grape, which he attributes to Johnny Depp.
This is awesome news. Personally I've really liked all the Transformers movies and the way he's made them. Here's hoping he gets Shia back in there.
Wasn't three going to be the last one? I think he wrapped up the story arc nicely with that movie, and I can't really see a possible starting point for new movies, as the leaders of the Decepticons are all dead.
Good news
Another one?
I haven't seen the films beyond the first one, but I've heard mixed reactions of them. They're trying to milk the franchise dry before giving it up, and I'm not sure if that's a good idea - look at Pirates of the Caribbean.
