Random Movie News to Know – The Week of August 15 - 21 2011

This weeks news seems to be dominated by Disney and Pixar announcements. Pixar has announced a few new movies including an untitled film about dinosaurs set for the later half of 2013, and has given up some details on their next planned Toy Story short titled 'Small Fry' in which Buzz is replaced by a miniature kids meal version of himself. Along with that Disney has thrown out a poster for their own short based on the Tangled film.

On a completely different note, it looks as though Sylvester Stallone will be making his way back to the war-zone as information has sprung up on a script for another Rambo film. The film titled 'Rambo: Last Stand' was written by Sean Hood who recently completed 'Conan the Barbarian' and was stated to be more of a small-town thriller. Whether Stallone will get on board with the film is still unknown but Hood is hopeful.

In the past I wrote about an upcoming revival to the cult film 'The Crow.' It was set to star Bradley Cooper in the lead role which seemed a bit off. This week it got a bit stranger, and undeniably more disappointing than it already had been. Cooper has dropped out of the project and a few of the studio's hopeful replacements names have been released. On that list are 'The Fighter's Mark Wahlberg, and 'G.I. Joe's Channing Tatum.

This week's trailer comes from Daniel Radcliffe's first film after the Harry Potter franchises end. 'The Woman in Black' a film based on a novel by Susan Hill tells the story of a lawyer who is forced to deal with a haunted house as he settles a deceased clients estate. The trailer portrays a great creepy atmosphere and if the whole film can fall in line with the trailer I personally will be looking forward to its release.
