More movie news. Hope you guys don't mind. I'm just trying to get more traffic to the the /mtv/ board.

Anyway, Angelina Jolie is playing Maleficient of Snow White fame, but no word on whether or not this is actually a (yet another) Snow White film. I've attached a pic that's been floating around the Interwebs. It was a little dark so I lightened it up for you. It's interesting, I guess.

Director: Robert Stromberg
Don't know what he's done, but I understand he used to work in special effects

Young Princess: Elle Fanning
No word on if this is Snow White, or a new character

Pixie Fairies: Juno Temple, Imelda Staunton, and Lesley Manville
No idea who these are

Human/Fairy Prince: Sharlto Copley
Name sounds familiar, but I can't place it.

The film is being marketed as "edgy, dark, and twisted”. Because that's the only way to make fairy tales, I guess. In all fairness, the original Grimm fairy tales were actually pretty dark. I just wish they would stop trying to reinvigorate stories that already worked well enough to last through the centuries.

Speaking of bringing back old stories, Chloe Moretz (of Kick-Ass fame) is set to play Carrie, from the Stephen King novel.

Director: Kimberly Pierce
She directed "Boys Don't Cry" a film about a woman trying to live as a man, and who was subsequently murdered. According to Ms. Pierce, this new "Carrie" will hew closer to King's novel than the previous film

The movie poster is not the official poster. It's a fan-made piece that someone made after finding out the above information.

If you liked "Evil Dead", get ready. Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi are allowing Diablo Cody to helm a new "Evil Dead" remake. It's expected to be low-budget as a homage to the original and Campbell will have a cameo

People are saying it will be "unbelievably violent". There are rumors, however, that new Ash will be cast a bit.. different.

The fuck is with all these remakes Goddamn. It's either that or a shitty comedy. Man, movies suck these days.

It's just the cycle of things. Remember "American Graffiti" and "THX 1138"? What about "The Godfather"? Those films were made back in the day because the studios suddenly realized they had no idea what to do to make people want to see movies again. So they found a bunch of kids, threw them some money and said, "Make Something". Those kids were Stephen Spielberg, George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola and others.

Right now, studios are in the same boat. They've lost touch with what makes films great, but they haven't realized that they need to make that bold creative turn. They will. Eventually. Then some great stuff will come out. And then the cycle will start over.

Update: here's Jolie on location somewhere in the British countryside. She looks somewhat underwhelming, but this is a paparazzi shot, not the final picture.

Remember "Raging Bull"? The Robert DeNiro movie where DeNiro plays a washed up boxer? They're making a sequel: "Raging Bull II".

It's also a prequel. It takes place just before the events of the first movie and also later on when the main character is in his 80s.

The director Martin Guigui, who is coming off a comedy - National Lampoon's Cattle Call.

This is apparently a real project that is actually happening.
