The Devil's Throat
Dickie Roberts - Former Child Star
Mystic River
Out of Time

Someone is going to have to move. Mystic River and Out of Time seem to be looking for the same exact audience. One is directed by Clint Eastwood and stars Sean Penn and the other stars Denzel and is directed by Carl Franklin. Something has to give. Mike Figgis' thriller for Disney is also on a similar track. And what could be a better time for a David Spade movie?!?!?!


Kill Bill
Intolerable Cruelty
Freaky Friday
Good Boy!

Tarantino's back. And ironically, he's scheduled to go up against indie gods, Joel & Ethan Coen. That is a Freaky Friday!!! Also, "An intergalatic dog Pilot from the dog star Sirius, visits earth to verify the rumors that dogs have failed to take over the planet." I couldn't make that up.


John Hamburg Project

Will it stay here? Meet The Parents/Go writer becomes a director. We are waiting.


The Whole Ten Yards
Texas Chainsaw Massacre

A sequel and a remake. That Bruce Willis/Matthew Perry sequel is something we've all dreamt of. And there's nothing like a remake of a move I am old enough to have seen in first run.


Suspect Zero

Elias Mehrege is back.


Nothing is currently scheduled, but something will turn up.


 



Matrix Revolutions
Bears
Love Actually
Elf

You know it. You love it. You can't imagine anything less than $350 million.

Will Ferell is an elf. Hugh Grant is charming. Bears are animated.


Looney Tunes: Back in Action

Joe Dante puts Bugs, Daffy, Brendan and Jenna through their paces. WB will start releasing short cartoons into theaters this summer in anticipation.


The Cat In the Hat
Mona Lisa Smile
Around The World In 80 Days
Havana Nights: Dirty Dancing 2

Someone's going to be crying. Mona Lisa Smile is likely to be the class of the group, aesthetically. Even if The Cat In The Hat doesn't kill, it will probably lead at the box office. And if Shanghai Knights doesn't perform, watch how nervous the Around the World folks are.


Haunted Mansion

Eddie Murphy could have a second hit in one year… or not.

 

 




The Last Samurai

Cruise. Swords. Money.


The Alamo

Disney's cheap version of the unforgettable stand is due.


Return Of The King

You know it. You love it. You can't imagine anything less than $400 million.


Cold Mountain

Could be a masterpiece. Could be a mess. Let's climb!

E ME: What are you most anxious to see next year that isn't about a ring or a superhero?
