This looks goooooooooooood – Skatronixxx

Director David Fincher and Academy award winning actress Charlize Theron have finally found a new home for their long-gestated Tv crime series Mindhunter. Originally developed for HBO back in 2010, Mindhunter will now co-exist alongside Fincher’s other mega-hit House of Cards on the streaming service Netflix.

The Netflix exclusive series will be based on the 1996 book Mind Hunter: Inside the FBI’s Elite Serial Crime Unit, written by special agent John Douglas and Mark Olshaker. The novel offers a behind-the-scenes look at high-profile cases involving some of histories most notorious serial killers.

It is believed that both Fincher and Theron will serve as executive producers while Fincher is also tapped to direct. Additional reports also indicate that British writer Joe Penhall (Enduring Love, The Road) is handling the script.

Release Date Set For Avatar 2

I wonder how much the budget will be for this sequel? No doubt the size of a small African country! – Skatronixxx 

For the time being James Cameron’s Avatar (2009) is still the highest grossing film of all time but could its very own sequel topple the Box-Office-behemoth when it eventually reaches theatres Christmas 2017?

In an interview with Montreal Gazzette, Cameron confirmed plans to release his next trio of sequels over consecutive years beginning Christmas 2017 and how they related to each other in a unique way.

“Christmas of ’17 is the target,” revealed Cameron. “At least, that’s what we’ve announced. But I don’t consider that to be as important as the fact that when we get all three films done, we drop them a year apart. I call it a met-narrative that runs across the three movies. Each film stands alone, but it also tells one much larger story.”

With the first film in the franchise dropping in 2009, fans of the Pandorian natives have wondered what has taken the director so long. “We have design more or less finished, which is an enormous task. It’s been about a two-year task. [We’ve finished] all the creatures and the landscapes, and the new worlds within the world of Pandora that you see.”

The director also confided that “the writing is ongoing, but almost finished. Technical development is done. Stages are done. Infrastructure. So we’re really poised to start after the first of the year.”

With his first film proving such a big hit, both critically and commercially, overtaking his Academy award winning film Titanic (1998) as the highest grossing film of all time. Cameron hoped that the Avatar sequel will prove that first film wasn’t just a “big fluke.”
