Ghost Rider A Spirit of Vengeance is in theaters February 17th.

Yes.

Warner Bros. is going ahead with it’s adaptation of the popular toy blocks bringing it to the silver screen. Warner is being tight lipped on the plot though.

Warner Bros. has not yet set a specific release date beyond aiming the film for 2014.

Greenlight comes a week before Warner’s opening of “Happy Feet 2,” from helmer George Miller and Animal Logic — five years after the original “Happy Feet” grossed $384 million worldwide and won the Oscar for animated feature as Animal Logic’s first CG feature.

“Lego” has been in development at Warner Bros. since 2008, when the studio began working with the toymaker on a family comedy based on the popular building blocks with Dan Lin and Roy Lee producing and the writing team of Dan and Kevin Hageman tapped to pen the script. In 2010, Warners brought on the “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” team of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller to write and direct. Variety

It may look like Hollywood is running out of ideas. One would be right to think that with two Snow White and Wizard of OZ movies coming out soon. But G.I. Joe(action figure) was adapted into a movie in 1987 and 2009.  You have Universal adapting the board game CandyLand into a Lord of the Ringsesque movie. And let’s not forget the board game Clue was made into a popular 80s movie and is being remade again.

Ok Hollywood IS running out of ideas.

Story, which appeared in the March 31, 2011 issue of Rolling Stone, chronicled the tale of David Packouz and Efraim Diveroli, who won a $300 million contract from the Pentagon to arm America’s allies in Afghanistan.

Yes. $999.99,mostly you will be paying for the Humidor that comes with it. Can’t afford that? Don’t worry Amazon.com will be selling it for the discounted price of $699.99 but hurry because only 1,000 will be made available worldwide.  I couldn’t imagine dropping a thousand dollars on a dvd gift set,  but then again people are dropping that amount for iPads every day, something I equally don’t understand…

For the poorer souls, there will be a regular limited edition steal book  Blu ray for just $24.99 and a Box set for $80. All three editions will hit stores and online September 6, 2011.

Watch the just released trailer for the final installment of the Harry Potter series based on the books by author J.K. Rowling. Plus Harry Potter theme park at Universal Studios Florida.

This is what movies are about. The world is in vampire mania, but the trailer for the last installment of the Harry Potter series is 10 times better than any Twilight movie. Deathly Hallows I think will be the best HP film since Prisoner of Azkaban. If not even better and it seems like director David Yates has fully redeemed himself from the disappointment that was Order of the Phoenix.But not to be out done it was announced that the final installment of Twilight was going to be released in two parts just like *cough,cough*.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 opens November 19,2010 and Part 2 July 15, 2011 both will be in 3d.

Plus the new Harry Potter mini theme park at Universal’s Islands of Adventures in Orlando,Fl opened this month.  It features a life size replica of the wizarding town of Hogsmeade where muggles can go shopping just like in the books and the Hogwarts castle which features the main attraction Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey.
