Superman Costume:
This is interesting, costume designer Kym Barrett (Matrix, From Hell) talked about designing the Superman
costume:
"I can't say very much about that right now, but we are working on the construction of the fabric for the costume. We have a bunch of chemical engineers and fabric designers working together and trying to invent a new, exciting material. You have to bear in mind that Superman is an extraterrestrial, from an entirely different planet, so the fabric must not resemble anything we have here on Earth."

Fantastic 4 Promosheet:
Latino Review
posted a great looking promosheet for Marvel's Fantastic Four live-action movie!
"Marvel's beloved superhero team comes to the big screen. Reed Richards / Mr. Fantastic, who can elongate his body; Susan Storm / Invisible Woman, who not only can become invisible at will but can render other objects invisible; Johnny Storm / Human Torch, who can shoot fire from his finger tips and bend flame; and Ben Grimm / The Thing, a hideously misshapen monster with superhuman strength, together battle the evil Doctor Doom."

Mace Windu talks Episode III!:
Mace Windu himself, Samuel L. Jackson, revealed some interesting things about Episode III:
"I think in Episode III he's definetely answered a lot of the questions that people had over the years about how this particular thing happened or why this person is this way, you know...who is connected to this and who is connected to that, but I think, he's also done what a lot of people has asked and probably gone a little further in that people was so angry about the first episode because they thought it was just a kiddy movie and the second episode because is kind of, well...that didn't answer all the things we need.
So now, he has put all these things together and tied it up. It´s very dark and shakespearean...and adult, and more violent than a "Star Wars" movie used to be. Hopefully they'll be satisfied with this particular episode."

Brothers Grimm update:
Reuters
posted a great article about Terry Gilliam's Brothers Grimm. The fantasy flick stars Matt Damon,
Heath Ledger and Monica Bellucci:
"His take on Jake and Wilhelm Grimm is that they were 19th Century conmen who duped people into paying them to drive out "evil creatures" that are actually fictitious beings created by the brothers themselves.
Eventually the two are asked by the French government to deal with an actual real-life evil creature -- played by Monica Bellucci -- that sends them on a wild adventure.
Damon and Ledger, heartthrobs to millions, are barely recognizable in their Bavarian costumes."

The Goonies are back!:
Director Richard Donner talked to MTV
about his plans to bring the long awaited The Goonies sequel to the big screen!:
"We're trying desperately," Donner told MTV. "We're just trying to get Warner Bros., who owns it, to say yes."
The sequel would reunite the original cast, which included Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, Josh Brolin and others, with a new bunch of suburban kids, Donner said.
"The new group is called the Groonies, because they happen to live in a town where [Data], the Chinese kid, lives ... and he's got an electronics repair shop and all the kids hang out at his shop. He has this Chinese accent and he calls the Goonies the Groonies, and so the new kids call themselves the Groonies, until they get into a situation where the old Goonies have to save the new Groonies, or vice versa."

Lauren Shuler Donner talks X3:
X3 is going to happen! James Marsden talked about the movie a couple of days ago but producer Lauren Shuler Donner
also reveals some X-men 3 stuff:
"Oh, there will definitely be 'X 3' We're looking for a great story. We're lucky with this series because
there is 40 years of great stories in the comics." She also is encouraged by the fact that despite originally
saying she was "X'd" out, Halle Berry is reconsidering resuming her role as Storm. "I hope Halle comes
back," Donner says. "We just have to give her something great to do." As for a release date, she says,
"That same nice May date in 2005 sounds good to me."

X-men 3 update:
Cyclops himself actor James Marsden talked about a possible third X-men movie:
"I know that there's an outline, a treatment out there, for the third one, I don't know what's in it or
what the story is," Marsden said that during his interactions with fans, they all expressed interest in
seeing the Dark Phoenix saga onscreen, "I guess that would include me a lot, because she'd become super
cosmic and evil. So that would be an interesting dichotomy, to have Hugh Jackman [Wolverine] and [me] team
up to stop her."

Star Wars on DVD!:
AICN posted an update on future Star Wars
projects including a DVD release date for the orginal Star Wars trilogy:
"The marketing timeline for Star Wars is as follows - This week, The Clone Wars, then the original Star Wars trilogy is being released September 2004, then Episode 3 teaser advertising begins in January of 2005, Episode 3 May 2005, Episode 3 DVD/VHS November 2005. One little fun fact - seems that they have TWO Star Wars television ideas floating around the ranch...one would be animation and the other - LIVE ACTION. These television projects would be in 2006."
The site's source also saw some amazing scenes of Star Wars Episode III:
"But the REAL meat and potatoes was the Episode 3 footage! Some cool as hell stuff. Anakin is looking darker than ever. Dark clothes, with what appears to be some scars on his face. They showed one scene with Obi-Won, The Emperor and Anakin crashing their ship into a planet as the ship burns."
They showed some animation of what will be OB1's transportation at one point in the film. A large lizard that's able to walk upside down and scale walls."
That sounds great!
