RUMOR CONTROL...THESE ARE THE FACTS

[Abraham Smashington]

still the best one off joke that PA ever did. Been waiting on this movie since apparently 2004.

[Anderson]

It's going to be an Apple TV mini series from the team that did Blackbird. Mainly about the history of Tetris and how the real creator got fucked over.

[Matt]

BLACK BIRD was great. If the makers of that are behind this, I'm on board.

[FilmNerdJamie]

Awesome video on the history of Tetris. Easy to see how it could make a great movie.

[BillyG]

Gaming Historian is amazing.

[Abraham Smashington]

Yeah, the history behind it is neat. We don't need a movie. And yes, Black Bird was fucking awesome, but again, not sure why we need a fucking Tetris or Gran Turismo movie.

GIVE ME A FUCKING MGS movie (and yes I know it's supposed to be happening...)

  Spoiler: NWO updates 

Sub out Nuke for 4-6 members of the Serpent Society. Because it works so well for Black Adam. Change is official due to the fact that Nuke character tested badly for focus group and Feige still wants to mine Netflix elements for future use.

[BillyG]

OK, but is Kevin Nash making a cameo?

[Martin]

Nah they only have the budget for Hulk Hogan and his tiny penis.

Any truth to the rumors that Guy Ritchie is developing THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. 2?

I'm down. That movie is a bunch of funl

[Martin]

Fuck me that was better than any Bond movie I’ve seen.

Any truth to the rumors that Guy Ritchie is developing THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. 2?

Only if WB sells the rights off elsewhere.

Cavill's not a box-office draw in the slightest, his Superman was never embraced by the general public and Man From U.N.C.L.E. tanked almost a decade ago.

So no, I'm not holding my breath on this rumor.

However, the only viable way I see this remotely happening is them lining Cavill up with a bigger-name co-star who would, let's be frank, overshadow him. If he's cool with living through what happened with cancelling the Man of Steel sequel for Batman v. Superman again.

Three names come to mind.

Brad Pitt. He has a work history with Guy Ritchie and was originally supposed to be Moriarty in Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. Never fully understood why talks broke down because with all due respect, Jared Harris was never going to put butts in seats. Pitt as Moriarty against Robert Downey Jr's Sherlock most definitely would have, and we'd have gotten a few more sequels. Alas.

The other two were previously attached to Man From U.N.C.L.E.

George Clooney - when it was going to be directed by Steven Soderbergh. Clooney has some newfound heat thanks to Ticket to Paradise being a big hit last fall. But I imagine him and Soderbergh will merge minds on an Ocean's 11 legacy sequel (and integrate Care Blanchett and Sandra Bullock into the fold) instead.

The other actor was who Cavill replaced. Tom Cruise. Assuming he even has the time. If he was still interested, then absolutely this thing is a go.

Who wants some early as hell spoilers for shit that will instantly make this historically interesting in 3-4 years?
