GENRE MOVIE NEWS

Jon Favreau won’t direct Iron Man 3

Jon Favreau has decided not to direct "Iron Man 3" and will instead direct "Magic Kingdom" for Disney. The "Iron Man" / "Iron Man 2" director explained his decision in an interview with the LA Times’ Hero Complex blog:

"Marvel and I both came of age together,” Favreau said. “The years that we shared were a pivotal experience. [Marvel Studios President] Kevin [Feige] has a firm grasp on the many franchises and how they all interweave and I am happy that I had the opportunity to establish the world that these characters can now play in…. ‘Iron Man’ has given me tremendous opportunities and Kevin and I are enjoying a lot of momentum in our careers thanks to the ‘Iron Man’ films. I look forward to seeing what others can do playing in the same world."

"Iron Man 3" is scheduled to hit theaters on May 3, 2013.

Gwyneth Paltrow says she won’t be in "The Avengers" + George Clooney joins in Gravity

Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed she won’t be reprising her role as Pepper Potts in "The Avengers". At least for now:

"No. No Pepper. I think it’s a for sure. I think they’re starting shooting soon, and they probably would have asked me by now."

As noted, this could change in the future as production gets underway on "The Avengers". Joss Whedon begins shooting the film in February 2011 and it’s set for release on May 4, 2012. In other casting news, Warner Brothers has confirmed that George Clooney will replace Robert Downey Jr. to star alongside Sandra Bullock in Alfonso Cuaron’s 3D sci-fi film "Gravity" [via Deadline]:

Clooney will replace Downey in the role of team leader of a space station. He and Bullock’s character, off working on a shuttle, are the sole survivors when the space station is decimated by the debris field from an exploded asteroid. Bullock will carry much of the action adventure, a mother who is hellbent on returning to her young child back on earth. Clooney is working the space schedule around The Ides of March, the adaptation of the Beau Willimon play. Clooney is directing and starring alongside Ryan Gosling in the political drama for Sony Pictures Entertainment and Cross Creek Pictures.

"Gravity" is expected to hit theaters in 2012.

TRON: Legacy opens with solid estimated $43.6M / $66.6M worldwide

Joseph Kosinksi’s “TRON: Legacy” pulled in a strong $3.6 million from Thursday midnight screenings including over $1M from 228 IMAX theaters. The 25+% gross from IMAX represents a new record (note: it’s not the highest IMAX gross, just a record by percentage of total take). Heading into the weekend estimates for the 3-day frame ranged anywhere from $40-$50M. [UPDATE] According to estimates, the film took in $18.0M on Friday (this includes the $3.6M from midnights), $15.1M on Saturday and is projected to take in $10.5M on Sunday for an estimated 3-day cume of $43.6M from 3,451 theaters (or approximately 5,600 screens). 3D played a huge part in the film’s gross. 2,424 theaters presenting the film in the format and all together accounted for 82% of the gross. That includes 234 IMAX 3D locations which made up 24 percent of the total gross. As a point of reference, last year “Avatar” had a 71 percent 3D share at 2,038 locations. On the the international front, “TRON: Legacy” opened in about half of its markets with $23M for a weekend worldwide take of $66.6M.

New trailers: Paul and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

New trailers have been released for "Paul" — which stars Star Trek’s Simon Pegg — and "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides". There’s also a new poster for "Paul". ‘On Stranger Tides’ is scheduled to hit conventional, 3D and IMAX 3D theaters on May 20, 2011. "Paul" hits theaters on March 18, 2011. Check out the trailers, and poster, below.

Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark delayed until February

The $65M broadway production "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark" has experienced yet another delay. The musical, directed by Julie Taymor and featuring music by U2 and the Edge, will now open on February 7, 2011. Producers will use the added time to re-write scenes and possibly add more songs.

“The creative team is implementing truly exciting changes throughout the preview process,” said producer Michael Cohl. “Due to some unforeseeable setbacks, most notably the injury of a principal cast member, it has become clear that we need to give the team more time to fully execute their vision. Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark is an extremely ambitious undertaking, as everyone knows, and I have no intention of cutting a single corner in getting to the finish line.”

Previews for the show, which began on November 18, will continue through the new debut date. The musical was most recently scheduled to open on January 11, 2011.

Will Tom Hardy be Hugo Strange? Sounds like a great bit of casting if true!

http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/12/17/dark-knight-rises-rumor-tom-hardy-hugo-strange-shooting-locations/

Tron is awesome looking–youve never seen a 3d movie looking like this before—-fans of tron like me wont be disappointed—but i dont know if the general audience will love it–its kinda scifi-y—I would luv to see more–

I thought Tron Legacy was great! I loved it. I cant understand why so many people are saying it has no plot. Hell yes it does. I thought it was perfect!

Actually Craig its a bit more of a plot than I expected…its more cerebreal science fictiony than I thought it would be…which I liked cuz us trek fans love science fiction…but I wonder if the general public will get it and appreciate it?? There was polite clapping after the movie which means they must have liked it….and ohhh the potential for the future…..wide open!

My only regret about the movie is that TRONS appearance was too brief, too muted…and unclear….I wanted to see the heroic cyber warrior one more time….but I think they downplayed him to play up the new characters…however Tron does fight for the users!

And damn the look of this movie….cant get over it….totally tripping daft punk music just as good as the original wendy carlos music in the first one….Most good movies TRANSPORT you somewhere you have never been before….even flawed movies can be great at doing that…Lynchs Dune is a great example….Well Tron Legacy takes you where youve never been before….even though it is recognizable as the grid it is also different….

Well done Disney Well Done!

Hopefully we will see more of tron and it wont be END OF LINE

I’m happy Iron Man 3 will get a new director. I did not like IRon Man 2’s direction. I also missed the soundtrack from Iron Man, which was compsoed by Ramin Djawadi. The second iron man’s soundtrack wasn’t as great. Hopefully they comeback to Ramin Djawadi.

I saw Tron Legacy and I enjoyed it. Good companion to the Original. I think there are some critics out there that just can’t enjoy anything.

Oh thank the Maker that Superman Lives was never made.

NOOOOOOOO on the Superman suit! The concept was never to have some sort of mechanical suit. Supermans powers was based on the power from the Earth’s Sun! This is by far the most insane concept I’ve ever seen!!

Seen Tron Last Night and wow. What an Amazing Movie. The FX was fantastic and the 3D was awesome. It had a great story to go along with it. I hope they do another Tron Movie. Still say Tom Welling should be the next Superman. Can’t wait to see Battle L.A looks to be good. Thank you once again to Trek Movie for a great Article.

I don’t quite understand the negativity and rooting for it to fail behavior that seems to be directed towards the Spider-Man musical by some. I’m not overly thrilled with some things I’ve seen and heard about it myself. Like the title (and I guess I’m the only one in the world who’s never liked U2’s music) but aside from all that I’d like to see it. Seems very ambitious.

That Superman suit was probably the healing power suit he’d wear until his powers regenerated following his revival from death.

So, the new Superman movie is going to be shot in Vancouver, the same place where Smallville has been filmed all these many years? Hey, if Tom Welling gets the part, he doesn’t even have to change dressing rooms! Or get on a plane, for that matter, just fly like one!

I love the fact that in the Superman costume videos one guy says “He’s Tron.” To which another responds “Damn it. I’m NOT Tron!”

Oh, but I think you are.

I would really really love for Tom to play Supes. I know there’s a movement to get Brandon Routh to play him again but I think Tom is a much better Man of Steel than Routh was, though we have not seen him fully as the man of steel yet this season he is proving that he has what it takes to don the suit. I would also love to see Erica as Lois because those two have great chemistry together! She’s really come into her own as well. How about just doing a Supes movie off of Smallville? That way we don’t have to have yet ANOTHER origins story and we have all the needed actors (if we can get Michael Rosenbaum back as Lex of course, but that’s not likely to happy sadly).

I think they’re going for a Dark Knight style feel to the movie, the problem with Supes is he was never designed to be a dark hero like Batman was – batman was perfect for the mood of the movie because Batman in general is a dark hero.

Too bad Jon Favreau won’t be back. Don’t be surprised if “The Avengers” is Robert Downey Jr.’s final appearance as Iron Man. Marvel will probably reboot Iron Man with a new cast.

Glad “Superman Lives” didn’t come to fruition!

#1

He’s reportedly NOT going to play Hugo Strange.

Hey Harry. Tom for Superman. But who would you want to play Lois Lane.

Season of the Witch looks DOA.

George Clooney on a space station? Again?

Thank you Santa for that 90’s gift I never knew about til now.

20 Thousand Leagues actually sounds like a good idea for a new remake.

Barbarella? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?

Papa Smurf, canna lick your *&^?
Yeah, &^%$#! in 3-D!

all i gotta say about any smurf movie… when is the pr0n version coming out?

Let’s face it, even though Iron Man 2 grossed more worldwide than its predecessor, it didn’t live up to the original! Let’s be honest…it was rushed, too much glitter, not enough heart, and the score wasn’t all that great either (miss Ramin Djawadi…) so the fact Favreau won’t be helming the third, doesn’t bring me to tears…with RDJ and Gwyneth, that film could direct itself. We need the Extremis storyline, AND the Mandarin!!!

Why do aliens always have to attack Los Angeles? It’s not fair.

Tim Burton hasn’t made an enjoyable film for a good long time. He’s back to his dancing skeletons stuff.

Tron Legacy was fantastic, saw it in IMAX last night. Not going to ruin anything but it was good. Had a bit of the Disney cheese, was epic at times, it wasnt too much or too little, as a Tron fan I was pleased. It gave you a world, not much explanation on why things are the way they are you simply had to accept the world as it is. A treat for the eyes, it is a fun ride. Most high brow people will tear it apart and loose all the magic, that’s basically what the movie is, just believe in the magic and its fun! I am not a religious guy but the Creator and Son of the Creator and the Gold like powers Flynn had in the movie adds a great aspect to this legend, and as Bridges said, we need modern day myths and legends and hes right. The movie is fun.

I didn’t know Prince of Persia was a Narnia movie ;-) all this time I thought the dreaded film was about Prince Caspian ;-p

#22 – I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m amused at all of the self-important critics (including the ones in both of Detroit’s daily papers) whining that it’s “all flash, no substance.” Uh, hello… you DID see the original “TRON,” didn’t you? Its plot was paper-thin, but its effects were eye-popping; if “TRON Legacy” is *only* as good as that, it will have achieved its purpose, in my opinion.

“TRON” went on to become a cult classic, a sleeper hit in defiance of the critics, and if “TRON Legacy” has the same fate, I’ll be more than happy.

I love the misinformed critics that think Tron was based on a video game when it was the other way around.

#21

He’s always in top form with his original material like Corpse Bride or Edward Scissorhands (or straight Hammer Horror like Sleepy Hollow). It’s when he’s adapting other people’s work that he doesn’t do as well.

Just got back from seeing Tron Legacy. It was a fun movie! Not too long, not too short. Just right. Olivia Wilde made the price of admission worth it alone. And that soundtrack! Got to admit I’d never heard of Daft Punk before this movie, but I’m a fan now! And the direction was also great. Very Kubrick-esque at times.

Hope it makes enough to justify a sequel. Well done, Disney.

Please, enough with the comic book movies. And the Green Hornet looks moronic at best.

@26 “He’s always in top form with his original material like Corpse Bride or Edward Scissorhands ”

Yea, right? Burton is without a doubt the most overrated director of all time. The only movie of his I have ever liked was Batman, in which the production team and the studio restrained him. And don’t like the weird fascination with dead bodies the the grotesque stuff he has in a lot of work — what a sick puppy.

Pee Wee, Batman, Beetlejuice are the only Burton films I can watch over and over.

I just saw Tron: Legacy. It was great. The themes of existenialism and religion were back as they were in the original. Only this time the movie had less goofiness. See Bit and technobable from the first one. Thought provoking science fiction.

And now for the 3-D review. At the begining of the film, Disney announces that part of it was converted and part was shot in native 3-D. Why? Maybe because of the anger over conversion. I don’t know. Anyway, as with all 3-D films, they’re too dark. Made worse by Tron’s black palette. Still, the native 3-D scenes were clean and looked good. Is it worth your extra couple bucks for the 3-D? No. The 3-D adds nothing to the movie.

With Paramount releaseing Transformers 3 in 3-D with part of it shot in 3-D, let’s keep demanding for native 3-D for Star Trek (2012) if released in 3-D. No conversions for Star Trek.

And yes, Oliva Wilde (Cowboys and Aliens, 2011) is lovely to look at. Team Olivia says she should be the new Saavik. Also see Tron: Legacy for the spectacular de-aging of Jeff Bridges. Now, let’s do that with William Shatner and make a CGI Star Trek to hold us over till 2012.

1. Transformers to be shot partly in 3-D

@29: “Overrated” = “I don’t like it, so there’s no way it could possibly be good”.

Oh, dear, that Superman suit is just dreadful. Say what you will about Superman Returns, but at least Brandon Routh looked the part. I don’t know what the hell that neon nightmare was, but it ain’t Superman.

I’m glad Superman Lives didn’t come about. Superman Returns didn’t knock my socks off, but at least it had an actor and a script that paid tribute to the first movie. It is now time to head in a new direction, I agree, but Superman Lives isn’t the way to go. I liked Brandon Routh, too. Had they gotten the right Lois for hom to play off of, I think there was a lot more positives that would have come about for that movie.

Pirates: On Stranger Tides looks like dynamite to me. I will admit, it is my favorite thing to follow besides Star Trek…but not once did I cringe while watching the trailer. Even better, not once did I think to myself: I miss Will and Elizabeth. I think Pirates 4 is gonna be a fun romp!!!

#31

Speaking of the “Bit” from the first TRON movie, did you notice the Bit sculptures on the mantle of Flynn’s fireplace? There was also a nice homage to “The Caine Mutiny” with Clu rolling the ball bearings (or were they the “NO” version of the Bit?) around in his hand, just as Captain Queeg did in the movie… and later Commodore Decker did with the computer disks in “The Doomsday Machine.”

There were probably other references in TL, but those were the two I caught. Oh, and the “That’s a big door…” line!

I liked how Flynn’s old bike was used in the movie.

Tron Legacy should have been titled: Flynn’s Legacy.

I don’t think the new Tron Legacy was horrible. I just didnt enjoy it as much as I thought I would. Special effects are top notch – visually stunning.

The story had problems.

@ 34

Yeah I noticed the two “Bit” sculptures. Kind of reminded me of the new “Clash of the Titans” where Perseus looks at Bubo in the armory and decides to leave it. Too cute for this movie! And the “Caine Mutiny” homage was all right. As Jeff Bridges was rolling those marbles, I was thinking, is this C.L.U. going to be paranoid like Captain Queeg?

I liked the arcade game of Tron in Flynn’s Place. Couldn’t tell if that was an actual game and cabinet. But it brought back memories of the game. It made me look up the game and its sequel, Tron Discs which made me smile when I looked at it again.

-Is that my main man Keith Richards in the Pirates trailer?
– Can’t wait to see the extra 2001 footage.
– The new Tron movie was terrible. It should be used as exhibit a alongside of the Transformers films as to what is wrong with modern cinema.
– Who would pay to see a remake of Barbarella .
– Does the world really need Men in Black III?
– Tim Burton is overrated. All style no substance. I’m glad we never saw his version of Superman.
– Ghostbuster 3 has as good of a shot of being made as I do of becoming Pope. Bill Murray will never do it.
– Does the world really need Spiderman the musical? Broadway hasn’t had an original idea in years.
– Ron Howard is a fine director, but a bad choice for Steven King’s Dark Tower.
– David Fincher doing 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea could be cool.
– Believe it or not The Green Hornet is getting great early reviews. Still don’t know if Seth Rogen is the best choice for this role.

Well Ringo yours is the only mention of Tron Legacy not being good so far—-ummm the notice by disney at the beginning of tron was not mentioning native 3d—it was an announcement that parts of the movie are not in 3d but keep yer glasses on thru the whole movie—so people wouldnt think their glasses were mal functioning–parts of the real world were not in 3d on purpose like the wizard of ozs use of color—makes the 3d grid world stick out more–literally hahah–just read a review of tron legacy by roger moore(not bond) complaining tha tron looks great but has no soul or humor–he had the same complaints bout the first movie–well duh–electronic world of programs–no soul n no humor unless written into the program—hello mcfly–computer world here–actually i think bridges was quite humorous in the first one–loved his line about the parking tickets–i admit older flynn not as much fun as younger flynn was–for good reasons–would luv to see more of oilivias isomorph n how she can save the world—

@30 Forgot he did Pee Wee. OK, yes, I kind of liked that one.

@38 “- Tim Burton is overrated. All style no substance. I’m glad we never saw his version of Superman.”

EXACTLY !!!

@32 ” “@29: “Overrated” = “I don’t like it, so there’s no way it could possibly be good”. ”

Great example of what overrated means — we are in full agreement then. Thanks!

@33 “I’m glad Superman Lives didn’t come about. ”

Me too!

And Burton’s next two movies are a real treat:

1. A girls dog gets killed, and she brings it back to life, Frankenstein style, and then it starts killing her neighbors.

2. Abraham Lincoln hunts vampires…..YES, YOU READ THIS CORRECTLY.

The guy is a joke!!!

“Tim Burton is overrated. All style no substance. I’m glad we never saw his version of ‘Superman.’”

I’m sad we ever saw his version of “Planet of the Apes.”

Oh yeh i liked the black hole poster with the tron posters n flynns son did say this isnt happening same thing daddy said–i thought bridges did a great job battling himself heh

Did you know that the people behind Tron Legacy are going to remake Black Hole if Tron is a success? I’d actually like to see some remake that.

#38-Sure looked and sounded like Keith Richards to me. That’s a plus…as well as having Geoffry Rush back!

31

I hope JJ Abrams keeps Star Trek XII in good old 2D. If he went 3D he would need to lose the Shaky cam and the lens flares.

In regards to Tim Burton I am a huge fan but Planet of the Apes and ALice in Wonderland would be my least fav of his films.

One TIm Burton film I recommend to those who have not seen it is Ed Wood, that is an amazing film.

Tim Burton’s Batman movies are still my fav ones.

#8′

I couldn’t agrre more!! That would have to be the worst idea for a Superman movie ever!!

For those that didn’t like Superman Returns (which I actually thought was pretty awesome) imagine if we gotten Superman Lives back in ’98?!?! Would have been riots in the streets!
