I think it goes without saying why this movie will be absolutely terrible. But it will be.

Here, buy a Tekken game, that will make you feel better.

After hearing rumors that Sam Raimi and the film studios were at a standstill over a number of aspects over the third sequel in this franchise, news of delays, and the contention over just who the villains were going to be, it has come to pass that the movie has been cancelled with Sam Raimi and Toby Maguire walking away. Sony Studios has been quick to announce that they will be rebooting the franchise in 2012, putting Peter Parker back in high school.

This news comes not long after the prequel to X-Men featuring Magneto also was announced to be dead in the water, in favor of a different prequel to follow the formation of the X-Men.

Sadly, this means that prequels and reboots are still in vogue and won’t be dying in the near future like the uncreative fads they have become.

Joe Carnahan’s big screen remake of The A-Team looks amazing. You might have some doubts as you watch the standard action movie fare with a slowed version of the original theme, but the last 20 seconds of the trailer sell the entire flick. I don’t even want to spoil it. I’ll just say that any sequel to last summer’s GIJOE movie will have to stretch far to beat such an outlandish action sequence.
Liam Neeson leads the cast as Hannibal Smith, with Bradley Cooper (ALIAS, The Hangover) as Face, Rampage Jackson (UFC Fighter) as BA Baracus, and overnight sensation Sharlto Copley (District 9) as Howlin’ Mad Murdock.

You like the look of this fella with the wings, the funny mask and the mace? How do you feel about a whole movie about him?

It appears Hawkman is being considered as a next step for WB to get some serious comic movie cash before the gravy train runs out and people start wanting Westerns or something. Could be cool move, as there isn’t a lot of guys like him on screen now, and his abilities could make for some good visual effects sequences.

This is a real wild card though, since Hawkman has such a diverse history, they’re is no telling if he’ll be a reincarnated Egyptian or a cop from the planet Thanagar. Also will the wings be real or fake? Odds are if he makes it into a movie he’ll have to put on a shirt.

Hawkman will appear in live action form in Smallville next month, played by Michael Shanks. DC could be testing the waters, but then I think the people still watching Smallville at this point are a poor sample for future success.

Warner Bros has had a lot of false starts in recent years, and it seems they’re thinking outside the bat. Green Lantern is already a sure thing with shooting expected next year for a 2011 release. What could come after this for DC? Taylor Swift Supergirl?
