I know horror remakes are still in vogue, but when they attract names like Toni Collette and Colin Farrell, one should take notice. Both have signed on to the forthcoming Fright Night redux.

James Franco's going to be in the Planet of the Apes prequel and Flight of the Conchords' Jemaine Clement is going to be the villain in Men in Black 3.

It's not often we talk about actors who aren't in movies, but it seems Megan Fox's very public dissing of Michael Bay was ill-advised as she's been chucked off Transformers 3. Poor Megan should tread lightly. The dismal box office of Jennifer's Body proved she isn't enough to open a movie, and the trailer for Jonah Hex looks... dicey.

But the trailer to Super 8, the Abrams/Spielberg film we talked about last time, looks pants-wettingly good.

Ordinarily I wouldn't be the least excited about news of another version of 28 Days Later is writing it.

There's a Brando biopic in the works, a big screen outing for MacGuyver, and the next Pirates of the Caribbean will be in 3D (like that's news).

In movies we've talked about before, Paul Greengrass is off the Fantastic Voyage reboot and Drew Barrymore might step behind the camera for one of the multitude of Wizard of Oz movies in development.
