Dolfan in NYC Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 A hacker group has got a digital copy of the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. They are threatening to release it incrementally if they aren't paid enormous amounts of money in BitCoin. Disney has told them to kiss the darkest part of the mouse's ass. http://deadline.com/2017/05/pirates-of-the-caribbean-dead-men-tell-no-tales-hackers-ransom-1202094203/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see all your shocked faces Bobby wiped the floor with Margaret Court, who was much better than King. I have no doubt he threw the match.

Legendary really hasn't made a dent with Universal like they originally thought. Other than Jurassic World and SoC, I haven't really felt like they put out projects that made the switch from WB to Universal worthwhile. Their one successful film this year was with Warner Bros.

I know '83 was already a remake, but this is gonna be shat on from on high by people that did and didn't like it. Or, maybe not... never underestimate bad taste.

Or it could be a good film and possibly better than the flawed film that came out in 83. I mean that didn't become popular until it hit VHS IIRC. Maybe the older people on here could speak on that. Also, I don't know if it's remake. All three films would just share the same name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I will forever love the mess that is De Palma's SCARFACE. In fact we just watched it like three days ago. It was my wife's first time seeing it and she was completely captivated by the gothic excess of it. But since the '83 SCARFACE is basically the perfect time capsule for everything that was both great and terrible about movies in the 80s, it kind of makes sense that Ayer would be the one. Whatever he produces it will be a bloated mess that anyone 20 years from now will be able to look back on and say either "What an amazing time that was in movies, though" or "What a horrible time that was in movies, though." Basically, if you hate the 80s you probably hate De Palma. And if you hate the 2000s you probably hate Ayer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Previously, it was rumored that they (Universal) wanted either Peter Berg or David Mackenzie. I wouldn't let Berg get close to it. He should just stick to modern day tragedy porn that tanks at the BO. Mackenzie would be a good choice, but he is working on a Scottish period piece project with Chris Pine and Ben Foster so he is out of the running it looks like.

Oh I love Scarface too. I know the film from front to back. However, you can make a great film with the name especially if it has nothing to do with Tony Montana and 80s excess. Will it be as iconic? Probably not because very few films nowadays are really that iconic. However, that doesn't mean that someone else can't put their spin on the basic structure of that film.

Curt McGirt Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 The only problem is that people are gonna go to Scarface and expect to see Scarface. If they imitate it they tarnish the legacy, if they do something new and cool it better be pretty fucking good to find an audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, I doubt it's going to be a movie that costs $100 million. You can do this for a max of 40 million or 50 million and have a late summer hit that didn't cost out the wazoo like everything else. Plus, Universal isn't going to take much of a hit if it doesn't do gangbusters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 The Resident Evil franchise has gone the way of the Friday the 13th franchise. Thanks to the international box office numbers for RE: The Final Chapter, the German film company that owns the rights to RE has decided that a reboot is in order, so The Final Chapter will not be end of the film series. No word on title, release date, director, or cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Tom Holland cast as Nathan Drake in Uncharted Apparently the movie is being rewritten as a prequel focused on the game's flashbacks to young Drake, aka "nobody's favorite part of those games."
