UPDATE: Roberto Orci Leaves Star Trek 3

Read on to learn who might replace Roberto Orci as director of Star Trek 3 . Regardless if you're a long-time Trekker (that's what we call ourselves) or someone who just enjoyed Director JJ Abrams' rebooted series, Star Trek has proven to be a money-making hit as well as a critical success. Perhaps the main reason for that was Abrams himself, who stood the frankly tired franchise on its ear by beaming its characters into an alternate timeline. Add to that a rich history of characters, including the conflicted Vulcan Mr. Spock and the bold adventurer Captain James T. Kirk, and you had a winning formula for success. But with Abrams now attached to Star Wars: The Force Awakens - and having released a pretty awesome teaser trailer the week of Thanksgiving - it's clear that his somoene needed to pick up the car keys to drive Star Trek forward. That person was set to be Writer Roberto Orci, best known for his screenwriting work with former partner Alex Kurtzma

Judge Dredd Web Series Is On It's Way

The campaign for a sequel to 2012’s Dredd has been long and loud, but has yet to quite crack open studio coffers for a second film featuring Karl Urban as the titular lawman. So producer Adi Shankar has decided to take matters into his own, unofficial hands, and cook up a web series about the Dark Judges . Though it won’t be a direct sequel to the movie, it should help tamp down withdrawal symptoms for a short while. Little is known about exactly what the series will entail, other than it’ll feature Judge Death and his terrifying accomplices from a parallel dimension, who have determined that all life is a crime and the punishment is a variety of torments and murder. According to The Wrap, the web miniseries will hit the web later this month for free. This isn’t the first time Shankar has turned to what is quickly becoming his Bootleg Universe to release more stories featuring characters he likes: he produced the short Punisher: Dirty Laundry in 2012 and another focused on

Next DREDD Film Could Be A Prequel According To Karl Urban

2012's Dredd was warmly received, but sadly its vocal audience of supporters wasn't large enough to translate into a box office hit. Online fan campaigns have since been clamouring for a sequel, and Dredd himself, Karl Urban , remains the project's biggest cheerleader. Back in February he reported to a convention audience that "conversations" had been happening. Now he's told Chicago Comic-Con that it's "a definite possibility" but that we're now talking about a prequel. "It's more likely that we'll do the Origins story, with Dredd trekking through the Cursed Earth to find the first Chief Judge Fargo," he says. Origins is 23 instalments from the mid-2000s, going into the back-story business of how the Judges came to be in the first place. It's also, as Urban says, about Dredd heading out beyond the walls of Mega City One to retrieve Fargo's stasis pod from the New Mutant Army. And there's some stuff in ther

Star Trek 3 Will Take Place on the 5-Year Mission

News that Star Trek 3 will be in 'deep space' gets us excited...ok, not like that. With Director J.J. Abrams far away producing the first Star Wars movie in a decade, his other project - the rebooted Star Trek franchise - has been handed over to Co-writer and Producer Roberto Orci. Simply titled Star Trek 3 at this point, it's aiming for a 2016 release date to coincide with the franchise’s 50th anniversary. With the series a financial success so far, it seems like Trek fans are ready for the actual 5-year mission which made the original so successful. So, where will the next chapter lead the crew of the starship Enterprise? Apparently, the answer came during a taping of the Bad Ass Digest podcast interview for Humans From Earth which Orci is producing along with Writer Geoff Boucher. Here's what he said: In [Into Darkness] they set out finally where the original series started. The first two films – especially the 2009 [Star Trek] – was an origin

Dredd 2 Video Update From Karl Urban

Urban says Filmmakers Working "Very, Very Hard" to Make it Happen.  Story By: Matt Cummings The ultimate in comic book distopia - Dredd 3D - didn't exactly knock it out of the park when it premiered in 2012. It grossed far below its $50 million budget, and fans worried that the franchise would suffer another long sleep before being recast. Fortunately, people still buy DVD's, and the film became an instant hit, achieving a sort of cult status with fans and newcomers (yours truly included). Luckily, its performance in the home market - coupled with a great petition campaign - renewed hope that a sequel might be in the works. And while that progress appears to be slow, Dredd star Karl Urban has released a video that tells a lot about where the project is headed. As you can see above, Urban continues to believe that a sequel will happen. The key phrase to remember here is that screenwriter Alex Garland is working "very, very hard" to m

Here's What We Think Of The New Futuristic Cop Show Almost Human

Here's what we think of the new futuristic cop show Almost Human. By: MattInRC FOX's new futuristic procedural Almost Human needs a dash of humanity and a sprinkle of bad ass. Things on television just aren't what they used to be. Not too long ago, premiere schedules were predictable - we sat down in September and enjoyed mostly new episodes clear through April, with season finales just in time for May Sweeps. Now, premieres seem to happen all year, forcing potential viewers to do more work than ever to keep up. Why this happens is something only for morons running FOX, CBS, NBC, and CBS can explain. How did FOX's November 17/18 premiere Almost Human stack up? We give you The Verdict below! Show: Almost Human (FOX) Time: Mondays, 8PM The Concept: A rogue cop and his synthetic partner fight crime in the not-too-distant future. The Verdict: Stories of trust between machine and man has been debated in Science Fiction for quite some time, with a

Riddick Review. Riddick Is B-movie Fare That Might Entertain, If You Can Get Over The Cheese.

Riddick Review By: MattInRC Director and Co-Writer David Twohy and Actor Vin Diesel bring another Riddick to the big screen that's not good enough for the Summer and too cheesy for even the Winter. Continuing after the titular character's apparent death in Chronicles , our story picks up with the hunted outcast trying to heal up while evading every manner of angry animal and alien. On this planet, referred to as 'Not Furya' (Riddick's home planet and the reason for his initial resignation from the Necromongers), the sun is hot and the wind penetrating, which is just how Riddick likes it. Soon, he's fashioning bone weapons, eating slimey rations from an abandoned rest station, and training a CGI dog with zebra stripes. But his past is about to catch up, as two teams of mercenaries descend to return him headless to Vaako ( Karl Urban ) and his people. One group of mercs - led by the professional Johns ( Matt Nable ) - has ulterior motives to the
