* Talk about weird moves. Martin Scorsese's 3D adaptation of Brian Selznick's adventure novel, The Invention of Hugo Cabret
, has undergone an odd name change. No longer titled Hugo Cabret, now the film will simply be known as Hugo. Sounds kinda flat and plain, doesn't it?. Then again with a cast featuring Chloe Moretz, Sacha Baron Cohen, Christopher Lee, Ben Kingsley ,Emily Mortimer, Jude Law, Ray Winstone, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Richard Griffiths you could probably call it just about anything and people will pay to see it. A trailer should be out soon, with the film opening on November 23rd.* It's been more than a full year since Predators
screenwriters Mike Finch and Alex Litvak were brought in by Sony to basically start from scratch on a script for Masters of the Universe
, the 1980s franchise featuring He-Man 
and his loyal Battle Cat. That's a long time to not hear anything since, but back in May Sony VP of Production DeVon Franklin said that the film is still on the slate and that a script should be arriving soon. I really wanted Justin Marks' Grayskull film to get off the ground at Warner Brothers, but I'll settle for this. He-Man needs a better big screen treatment than the awful Dolph Lundgren film. [Crosswalk via Slashfilm]* See, if none of you people had ever gone to see Pirates of the Caribbean
, this wouldn't be happening. Disney is yet again delving into their plethora of theme park rides for film inspiration, this time focusing on The Matterhorn Bobsleds. The film has a working title of The Hill, and will be written by Jason Dean Hall(Spread
). The story will involve five youths who climb the actual Matterhorn and encounter Yetis on the way back down.
