Wouldn't it be better to release this movie on 21 December 2012? ^^

Stress makes you bald, but it's stressful to avoid stress, so you end up stressed out anyway.
So in the end there's nothing you can do.

Supposedly this is a sequel to the original movie, ignoring Annihilation (which is, suffice it to say, very wise, even if MKA is my favorite bad movie).

1906 & 1906 These are my two sources. 1906 iMDB has it listed as 2009, but maybe because of the writer strike it might be delayed.




Also, according to movieweb.com Superman: The Man of Steel is also due to be released in 2010 as well as Justice League: Mortal.

I don't know. I would say ask DVeditor in Comms since he makes all of the icons. But, it is a pretty cool icon, so that is why I chose to change to it (from the Darth Vader reading Hop on Pop).

Apparently the icon was uploaded 11/25/06 at 11:17pm. (I searched for it in the icons and clicked "Order by Date". Ba-da-bing.)


I'll be interested to see if they can give Fahrenheit 451 a proper movie treatment (key word proper tongue ).

I would take the list you have there with a grain of salt as many of the movies seem to be in development hell, some without a script yet. So it seems unlikely to me that they would be released in 2010....if at all.

Oh, believe me, I do consider that some of them will not be made (the Justice League movie is already in development hell).

Apparently, all good (or even semi-good) video games are being made into movies these days. Soon, we'll have Doom or Quake, or even Civilization (that would probably actually be a good one). Heck, maybe they'll make a Rock Band vs. Guitar Hero movie. tongue

They've been saying Christopher Lambert will be back as Raiden (great news, since his twisted sense of humor in the first film was one of the best parts of the movie, sorely lacking in MKA (alongside a good script, acting and a few other minor things... wink ).

Howeverm god bless Brian Thompson as Shao Kahn grin
