Kung-Fu Panda,  How To Train Your Dragon, & Madagascar Tons Of Sequels Coming Empire sat down with DreamWorks Animation chief Jeffrey Katzenberg this week in London, and asked him about the future of the company. But I thought we'd particularly draw your attention to what he had to say about planned animation sequels to Kung-Fu Panda and How To Train Your Dragon and more. Namely, that we're looking at a total of four Madagascar films, six Pandas (which was already rumoured) and at least three Dragons . "What our movies and our franchises also share in common with Shrek is that they have a beginning, a middle and an end; they’re not open-ended. Each of the films is a chapter of a story and in every instance we knew what that journey was or could be before we even started. "So today I can tell you pretty succinctly where Madagascar goes. Ultimately they will come back to New York, and they will come to terms with that, which they will do in this next ch

So Wrong It's Right This has to be one of the weirdest videos I have ever seen. So bad that I should turn it off but you want to see who will be turning up next. Its a music video promoting a Norwegian show called Golden Times . Stars from the 80's and 90's appear. Just a werid mix of people from Roger Moore, Jason Alexander, Dolph Lundgren, Kelly McGillis (didn't age well at all) and many more. Make sure you watch it all the way threw to see all the stars. Just to funny. They all have a part in singing the classic Beatles song " Let it Be ." Watch the video and check out the list of stars after the Jump.. See if you can name all the stars.

While We’re Young To Star Stiller & Franco Noah Baumbach is readying a Greenberg reunion of sorts: Vulture spies tell us that the writer-director is just now setting up his next project, While We’re Young , with Ben Stiller and James Franco already attached to star, and the project on offer to Greta Gerwig and to Cate Blanchett . Longtime Baumbach producer Scott Rudin (Greenberg, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and Margot at the Wedding) will again produce. The script is being kept under tight security, but we’re told that it’s about a free-spirited Brooklynite twentysomething couple (Franco — and, possibly, Gerwig) who inspire an uptight documentarian (Stiller) and his wife (possibly Blanchett, pending the resolution of some scheduling issues) to loosen up — with comedic consequences. We’re told the role on offer to Blanchett was likely originally intended for Baumbach’s Greenberg co-writer and spouse, Jennifer Jason Leigh , but since she just filed for divorce from the director la

Major Changes Upcoming For The Walking Dead Season 2 Just when you thought there was nothing that could stand in the way of " The Walking Dead " comes word that some major changes are coming to the smash hit AMC series.
