TM Movie News: Guardians of the Galaxy, Alien 5, Bad Santa

- by Steve Garcia, 2 November 2015

Happy Monday, my lovely Muties! IT’S MOVIE NEWS TIME!

Alien 5:

  • Previous rumors have been confirmed after director Neill Blomkamp announced that his Alien sequel has been put on indefinite hold until Ridley Scott’s Alien: Paradise Lost has been sorted out. Blomkamp’s track record has been getting worse with every film since his debut film District 9, and this might be Hollywood coming to terms with the fact that maybe the general public has just fallen out of love with him. It is odd to me that the studio is so quick to follow up on Prometheus, given its less than stellar critic consensus, though. Check out his tweet below:
​

alien is kinda holding/ pending prometheus 2. So I shall be working on other things... as much as I love the xeno- and Lt ripley

Bad Santa 2:
                                                       
  • Years of talking about it have finally turned into action! Miramax and Broad Green Pictures have announced that Billy Bob Thornton will be reprising his role as the lead character in Bad Santa 2! Principle photography will begin in January and the film is slated for the 2016 holiday season. And if by any chance you’re reading this article right now, I recommend that you shut your computer off and watch the original immediately—it is a criminally underappreciated masterpiece.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2:
                                        
  • Finally some Guardians of the Galaxy casting news! Originally reported by Vareity, French-Canadian actress Pom Klementieff (Oldboy) has officially joined the cast, and many sources are claiming that she will be playing Mantis. In the comics, Mantis was a member of both the Guardians and the Avengers and has strong ties to the Kree—the same race as the villainous Ronan the Accuser. The same report also claimed that Marvel and director James Gunn wanted to cast Matthew McConaughey as the film’s villain, but he ultimately turned it down. Which villain could that be? I have no idea, but looking at Marvel’s track record for lackluster villains, I think McConaughey may have made a good call here. On the other hand, however, Spider-Man reboot is upon us, and we’ll need a new Norman Osborn eventually!

Star Wars: The Force Awakens:
                              
  • After those latest trailers and posters hit the web, there seems to be only one question that everyone’s been asking: Where is Luke Skywalker? The Associated Press at the GLSEN Respect Awards asked director JJ Abrams himself what the deal was, and here’s what he had to say about it:
  • “It’s no accident. These are good questions to be asking. I can’t wait for you to find out the answers.”
  • Fans have been doing their usual thing and creating a ton of BS rumors that suggest that Luke is Kylo Ren, and as usual, none are particularly convincing. The Force is strong with JJ, and I trust his judgment for not including the character in any advertisements. We’re only a month away now, folks! 
​


STUFF YOU SHOULD LOOK AT:


Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip:
​
  • Because there's nothing else. LOOK AT IT, IF YOU MUST!
​

And there you have it! Would you watch the Bad Santa sequel, or has it been too long? Which Marvel Cinematic Universe villain do you think Matthew McConaughey play? Where do you think Luke Skywalker has been? Let us know! As always, be good to one another!
