Joel Silver to produce OSC's EMPIRE

We might be getting an OSC adaptation yet... Unfortunately it's not Ender's Game, but hey, it might get the ball rolling. " Joel Silver is addicted to producing. I mean, the guy can’t stop. I think him, Jerry Bruckheimer, and a Brian Grazer need to form some sort of a support group to help ea...

Spiderman 3 was weak. There's no getting around it. By far the worst of the series. I hope they can continue them going, because Spiderman is an icon and worthy of screen time.

Jackson should without a doubt direct The Hobbit. He and his team did a tremendous job with the other three, and it would be a slap in the face to any fan if he didn't do The Hobbit.

Sam Raimi's name has been thrown around, is that what we want The Hobbit to become?
