• Hopefully third time is the charm for Warner Bros. because they moved the release date of The Losers once again to April 23rd. The original release date was April 9th then moved to June 4th. Warner Bros. must be feeling scared for the success of this adaptation.

• The Twilight Saga: Eclipse will have its first trailer released in March; in theaters attached to Remember Me starring Twilight star Robert Pattinson. So, all of you Twilight fans can freakout now and go make this movie huge just to see a short trailer.

• Acclaimed director James Cameron (Avatar, The Terminator) is consulting Marc Webb with the production of the spider-man reboot. He says it's not about characters or direction, but use of his revolutionary 3D technology Cameron used for Avatar. This could end up being awesome.

• The L.A. Times is reporting that Universal Pictures is rebooting the American Pie series for theatrical release. Universal has declined to comment on the reports at the moment, this most likely means it's true. Also, they are reporting that some of the original cast is interested in returning. I can't wait to see more on this later.

• Creator Joss Whedon (Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, Firefly) and Morgan Spurlock (Super-Size Me) are rumored to be working together on a Comic-Con based documentary around the fan culture at the huge event. They are looking for people to follow for 3 months leading up to Con and during it. This could be interesting because Super-Size Me made me never want to eat McDonalds again. I have been McD-free for about 10 years and the film gave strength go on. Comic-Con could be good this year, although last year was a blast. 

• NBC is looking to resurrect Steven Spielberg's supernatural series Nine Lives. The series was originally written for SyFy about 3 years ago, but they never did anything with it. NBC is rewriting some aspects of it to appeal to a broader audience. I would watch this show just because Steven Spielberg created it. Do the 12 hour mini-series NBC. Do it
