QT talks Kill Bill Vol. II!:
Quentin Tarantino revealed some great stuff about the second Kill Bill film:
"Vol 2 is out February 20. Vol 1 is a pure burst of adrenaline. Two we slow it down a little bit, you get to know the characters more, especally Bill; he's in every other fucking frame. Two's more like my other movies, the dialogue comes to the fore, and it's more chronologically fucked. And it really ain't gonna end pretty". The man is also opinionated on the way cinema is heading thanks to the digital revolution - "This CGI bullsh*t is the death knell of cinema. Movies are far too f**king expensive at the moment and it's killing the f**king art form. The way it's going, in ten year's time it will officially be killed."

Blade: Trinity update:
The Z Review posted an ass kicking update on Blade: Trinity! Writer-producer David Goyer will direct the last Daywalker movie and if you saw Zig Zag, you know he's perfect for the job as director:
"Word reaches us that filming on Blade: Trinity has started filming today as revealed by concept artist Ty Ruben Ellingson "Blade 3 begins principle photography today, and everything is looking fantastic. David (Goyer) has assembled an amazing cast, the chemistry between the characters is right on, right on.Blade's relationship with Abigail (Abigail Whistler - Jessica Biel) is authentic and rich, and the interplay between he and King (Hannibal King - Ryan Reynolds) is utterly outrageous. A number of new weapons have been added to Blade's arsenal with which he unleashes mega-damage on the vampire world. I can't let the cat out of the bag, but David has an ingenious imagination and we've really pulled out the stoppers; fans will surely be impressed. Expect to be taken on a real ride with this picture, the action sequences can only be described as full-throttle and intense. It's been a privilege to work on this show. Blade 3 will rock."

News Update:
Hi guys, thanks for coming back. The data transfer went well and movieXplosion.com is up and running again, yeah! I've collected the most interesting headlines from the last days:

Fantastics character poster for The Last Samurai, check out Latino Review.

The guys of the first Jurassic Park movie are back for JP4. Sam Neill, Jeff Goldblum (probably) and now Sir Richard Attenborough stated "that Steven Spielberg had contacted him about Jurassic Park 4, which Sir Richard said he would do," according to AICN.

Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead) commented on a possible Ash vs. Freddy vs. Jason movie: "Some executives at New Line are getting (excited) for that idea - which makes a lot of sense," Campbell told Seattle Times. "But Ash has not been contacted to see what his franchise rate is. Funny thing is, it's actually a really cool idea, as long as there could be a satisfying end to that particular movie. There'd be no point for Ash to participate unless he could kick some major franchise ass."

Second M. Night Shayamalan sighting:
Superhero Hype received another confirmation on "M. Night Shayamalan directs Superman" news: "Just a few words to confirm the accuracy of your reports that Jon Peters is leaving Superman. I have been on a spying trip at Warners, my friend works there. Anyhow, the name of the producer who is taking over from Peters, is Jerry Weintraub, an older, veteran producer i am told. Cant say the name rings any bells. Also the contracts between Warner Brothers, M Night Shyamalan and Brendan Fraser, are nearly signed and done deals."
