Wern't the rights already purchased by New line?
If so you can bet there will be either way The Idiots guide to being a rich and famous holleywood producer and movie exec. Take an original idea make what...at least 10 copies of that idea. Take same original idea alter it a bit, make another 10 copies of that idea. Once you finally think you have exhausted the same story lines and ideas so that you can't possibly make ANY more money off it, merge ideas. proceed to copy new idea. Think it can't be done ? Well take a look....seen any NEW ideas recently?

ARTHUR: Old woman! DENNIS:Man! ARTHUR:Man. Sorry. What knight lives in that castle over there? DENNIS:I'm thirty-seven. ARTHUR:I-- what? DENNIS:I'm thirty-seven. I'm not old. ARTHUR:Well, I can't just call you 'Man'. DENNIS:Well, you could say 'Dennis'. ARTHUR:Well, I didn't know you were called 'Dennis'. DENNIS:Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you? ARTHUR:I did say 'sorry' about the 'old woman', but from the behind you looked-- DENNIS:What I object to is that you automatically treat me like an inferior! ARTHUR:Well, I am King! DENNIS:Oh, King, eh, very nice. And how d'you get that, eh? By exploiting the workers! By 'anging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society. If there's ever going to be any progress with the-- WOMAN: Dennis, there's some lovely filth down here. Oh! How d'you do? ARTHUR:How do you do, good lady? I am Arthur, King of the Britons. Who's castle is that? WOMAN:King of the who? ARTHUR:The Britons. WOMAN:Who are the Britons? ARTHUR:Well, we all are. We are all Britons, and I am your king. WOMAN:I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective. DENNIS:You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship: a self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes-- WOMAN:Oh, there you go bringing class into it again. DENNIS:That's what it's all about. If only people would hear of-- ARTHUR:Please! Please, good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? WOMAN:No one lives there. ARTHUR:Then who is your lord? WOMAN:We don't have a lord. ARTHUR:What? DENNIS:I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week,... ARTHUR:Yes. DENNIS:...but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting... ARTHUR:Yes, I see. DENNIS:...by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,... ARTHUR:Be quiet! DENNIS:...but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more major-- ARTHUR:Be quiet! I order you to be quiet! WOMAN:Order, eh? Who does he think he is? Heh. ARTHUR:I am your king! WOMAN:Well, I didn't vote for you. ARTHUR:You don't vote for kings. WOMAN:Well, how did you become King, then? ARTHUR:The Lady of the Lake,... [angels sing] ...her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. [singing stops] That is why I am your king! DENNIS:Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. ARTHUR:Be quiet! DENNIS:Well, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you! ARTHUR:Shut up! DENNIS:I mean, if I went 'round saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away! ARTHUR:Shut up, will you? Shut up! DENNIS:Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system. ARTHUR:Shut up! DENNIS:Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help! Help! I'm being repressed! ARTHUR:Bloody peasant! DENNIS:Oh, what a give-away. Did you hear that? Did you hear that, eh? That's what I'm on about. Did you see him repressing me? You saw it, didn't you?

It will suck anyway, but i'm glad to see Bruce will have nothing to do with it.

Unit 03: It is practically impossible to come up with a completely new, unique, never-done-before idea. There are only so many basic story lines, and they have all been done before. The challenge (and interest) for story writers today is to provide variations of these story lines. And this goes for all storytelling. Not just movies. As for there being a sequel to Freddy vs. Jason --- dammit, I hope not. It's really pointless actually. Neither one of them can die, obviously, so even the first one was boring as hell. Of course, they may actually do three of these things all together: the first one, Jason wins; the second one, Freddy wins; the third one, they both become banished completely from this world for good by some cop-out plot device like "magic". Of course, if they can come back from hell, then fuck it. What is a group of mere mortals going to do against a pair of yahoos that Satan himself can't contain? No, both of these characters need to be put to rest the only way they can be. By not writing stories about them any-fucking-more.

FvJ was a horrible movie. You couldn't pay me to watch a sequel.
This was one of the most anticipated movies of all time and they fucked it up. Congratulations.

It never had a chance. i will be surprised if AvP doesnt suck. It has a good writer director ( i like resident evil quite a bit), but with a pg-13 rating for a match-up between 2 of the greatest r-rated monsters ever? nope.
It wiould be like "Terminator vs Robocop", pg-13. blech.

agree, AvP needs to be 18/R, so much could be added.

Exactly. How can you have a chestburster scene in a pg-13 movie?
