Deathstroke is The Villain for Ben Affleck's Solo Batman Movie!

It looks like we now know who the main villain of the upcoming solo Batman movie will be and its going to be Deathstroke. The character has shown up more and more in modern animated films and even in the Arkham video games as well as being on the DC television show Arrow. He hasn't been in any live action film as of yet and it looking like he is finally going to have his chance now.

In a recent tweet Ben Affleck revealed to what looks like test footage during the pre-production of the standalone Batman movie. The film is still a ways off but that fact that we are already seeing elements of the film now does start the hype train a bit early. I think that Deathstroke can be a cool villain, but I am not sure if he is fit for the MAIN villain just yet. I will have a see a bit more but I can be confident in that.

Check out the video right here:

Avatar Sequels Announced! Along with their Release Dates!

James Cameron came to CinemaCon 2016 to announce that he will be continuing with his Avatar franchise but also laying out the release dates for all of these sequel films to have.

Each film will stand alone but also tell a complete story in this epic saga, Cameron said.

Here are all the release dates:

Avatar 2 - Christmas 2018
Avatar 3 - Christmas 2020
Avatar 4 - Christmas 2022
Avatar 5 - Christmas 2023

Cameron has been working with his team of writers to come up with scripts and designs for up to several Avatar movies. It is very clear that Cameron wants this to become his new star wars saga.

I guess we will have to wait and see if all his work pays off when the first sequel arrives. But the key difference now is, that he has to compete with the Star Wars films that also release the same time every year from now on.

Roger Deakins is the cinematographer for the 'Blade Runner 2'

Just from the news alone, Blade Runner 2 is mostly likely going to be the most gorgeous movie ever made.

It was just announced that Roger Deakins, who has lens films like Skyfall, Prisoners, and Unbroken most recently is re-teaming with Denis Villeneuve for the Blade Runner Sequel. They last worked together on Prisoners, which did a great job at creating a dark atmosphere, something that Blade Runner 2 has to get right.

I think this is great new and even though I really don't want a sequel to Blade Runner, all the news to come out of the film so far has been great.

Alex Kurtzman to Direct 'The Mummy' Reboot!

Not only directing the 'Venom' movie, Alex Kurtzman is in talks to be directing the reboot installment of 'The Mummy'. The movie is set to be released on May 22nd, 2016.

It was announced a while back that the studio is going to be developing a cinematic universe but with their own monsters and I'm assuming that it will start with 'The Mummy' reboot. He is producing with Chris Morgan and Sean Daniel on developing the feature. Kurtzmann doesn't have many films on is directing list, with is directorial debut just recently.

Jeff Kirschenbaum, co-producer of production for Universal commented on the choice with the following:
“Over the course of developing The Mummy, Alex has demonstrated such clarity and passion about this character and mythology, He knows why The Mummy has fascinated us for so long and how to bring that into an inventive, incredible new adventure. It became obvious that he is the perfect choice to be not only one of the narrative engineers of this new vision but its director as well.”

So are you looking forward to 'The Mummy' reboot?

It looks like 'The Hateful Eight' is actually going to be a reality. Today we got a poster for the movie that is due to start filming early next year in 2015. The movie will be filmed in 70mm Super CinemaScope, which is what Tarantino had promised when he wrote the script.

Earlier this year the script for Tarantino's screenplay was leaked online and that caused the film's production to be put on hault. But last week at Comic Con, the director anounced that the film will be his next project he is working on.

This is definitly a movie I will be looking foward to next year.
