While we were all stuffing our faces with turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and more, the movie industry was still abuzz, leaving it with some things to be thankful for at the end of this holiday weekend and others worth forgetting.<\/p>\n

Good news for \u201cSkyfall\u201d fans; Sam Mendes looks as though he may return for Bond 24. Bad news for \u201cThe Hobbit\u201d fans; reports have surfaced that animals died during production due to poor housing conditions. James Wan has quite a bit to look forward to in 2013. Not only does he have the highly anticipated \u201cThe Conjuring\u201d due in theaters in July, but now \u201cInsidious 2\u201d is set for an August release. Rupert Sanders, on the other hand, will be trying to salvage his marriage while waving goodbye to the \u201cSnow White and the Huntsman\u201d franchise.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a week of ups and downs in the movie biz, but here\u2019s to all you Shockya readers only having things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! Happy holidays and enjoy your weekly Movie News Cheat Sheet<\/B>.<\/p>\n

1. Fox Cuts \u201cIndependence Day 3D:\u201d<\/FONT><\/B> Looks like 20th Century Fox might have lost some faith in the 3D re-release market. Via Coming Soon<\/a>, the studio has nixed plans to re-release \u201cIndependence Day\u201d in 3D on July 3, 2013. No word on how or if this will affect \u201cID Forever \u2013 Part I\u201d and \u201cID Forever \u2013 Part II,\u201d but I\u2019m betting this is a 3D re-release-specific issue. I\u2019m not quite sure how much it runs a studio to post-convert, but these re-releases aren\u2019t making all that much money. So far, \u201cThe Lion King 3D\u201d is the highest earner, taking in $94 million domestically, but otherwise, most hover around the $43 million mark. It should be interesting to see if \u201cJurassic Park 3D\u201d can raise the bar come April 5, 2013.<\/p>\n

2. Sam Mendes May Return for More Bond:<\/FONT><\/B> With critics and fans adoring \u201cSkyfall,\u201d the question of whether or not director Sam Mendes would continue on with the franchise was bound to come up \u2013 dozens of times. At the New York City press conference, Mendes said<\/a>, \u201cIt\u2019s been a fantastic experience, but it\u2019s been completely exhausting,\u201d and, \u201cI would just have to be convinced that I could do something that I loved and cared about as much if I was to do it again.\u201d At the time, it seemed like Mendes was dancing around answering with a big, fat no, but now he tells Time Out<\/a>, \u201cI\u2019ve enjoyed it enough to do it again. I think the choice is in the audience\u2019s hands. If people love the movie and they want to see another one from the same people who brought you \u2018Skyfall,\u2019 then that would mean a lot to me.\u201d Mendes\u2019 involvement hasn\u2019t been officially announced, but if he really is up for it, the Bond team would be pretty silly not to bring him back.<\/p>\n

3. Animal Abuse on the Set of \u201cThe Hobbit:\u201d<\/FONT><\/B> As someone who cried her way through \u201cFrankenweenie,\u201d news of animal deaths on the set of \u201cThe Hobbit\u201d is just absolutely heartbreaking. As reported by CBS News<\/a>, the production\u2019s animal wranglers housed animals \u201cat a farm filled with bluffs, sinkholes and other \u2018death traps,\u2019\u201d resulting in up to 27 fatalities. Peter Jackson\u2019s spokesman acknowledged the deaths of two horses, goats, chickens and one sheep, but insisted that some were from natural causes. The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals plan to protest the premiere of \u201cThe Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey\u201d in New Zealand, the US and the UK.<\/p>\n

4. More in the Running for Harry Osborn:<\/FONT><\/B> We\u2019ve got a new quartet of actors up for the role of Harry Osborn in \u201cThe Amazing Spider-Man\u201d sequel and the group suggests the filmmakers may have changed their representation of the character. Initially Dane DeHaan, Alden Ehrenreich and Brady Corbet were all said to fit the \u201cbrooding and dark path\u201d envisioned for the character, but now, according to THR<\/a>, they\u2019re looking for someone with \u201cathleticism and good looks,\u201d guys like Sam Claflin, Eddie Redmayne, Douglas Booth and Boyd Holbrook. Actually, it seems more like they\u2019re going with guys with higher profiles. Yes, Ehrenreich has \u201cBeautiful Creatures\u201d on the way, DeHaan recently hit it big with \u201cChronicle\u201d and Corbet is simply oozing with talent, but Claflin\u2019s got \u201cHunger Games,\u201d Redmayne and Booth have \u201cLes Miserables\u201d and Holbrook is in Darren Aronofsky\u2019s \u201cNoah.\u201d While I\u2019m still pulling for Corbet to sneak his way back in, if Sony is committing to one of the four new names, Redmayne is the best bet of the bunch.<\/p>\n

5. \u201cInsidious 2\u201d Due Next Summer:<\/FONT><\/B> Bring on the summer of James Wan! Straight from FilmDistrict comes news that \u201cInsidious 2\u201d is due in theaters on August 30, 2013, just about a month after Wan\u2019s \u201cThe Conjuring\u201d is set to arrive. According to the press release, production kicks off on January 15, 2013 with Wan returning to direct another Leigh Whannell script. Stars Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, Line Shaye and Ty Simpkins are all set to reprise their roles, but no word on what the sequel has in store for the characters. <\/p>\n

6. No \u201cSnow White and the Huntsman 2\u201d for Rupert Sanders:<\/FONT><\/B> Director Rupert Sanders or superstar Kristen Stewart? Tough decision, huh? After reports of the relationship between the \u201cSnow White and the Huntsman\u201d star and director surfaced, it was clear that one wouldn\u2019t return for the sequel. Word<\/a> got around that Universal was considering ditching Stewart, but now Radar Online<\/a> reports that Stewart is actually in and Sanders is out. The outlet\u2019s source claims that a script has been written and is due to go into production late next year, but \u201cRupert Sanders definitely won’t be a part of the project. Rupert didn’t want to be a part of it to begin with because he is desperately still trying to save his marriage.” After one too many dull performances via the \u201cTwilight\u201d franchise, one less Kristen Stewart-starrer couldn\u2019t hurt, but from the studio perspective, Stewart is the obvious priority over Sanders. Whether Universal gave Sanders the boot or he self-exited to focus on his marriage like he said, \u201cSWATH 2\u201d is better off for it \u2013 from a financial standpoint at least.<\/p>\n

7. \u201cZero Dark Thirty\u201d Prequel a Possibility:<\/FONT><\/B> Between the source material, awards buzz, the rock solid cast and the film marking Kathryn Bigelow\u2019s \u201cHurt Locker\u201d follow up, there\u2019s quite a bit of buzz surrounding \u201cZero Dark Thirty.\u201d In fact, there\u2019s enough to spur talk of another film, a prequel. Bigelow and producer\/writer Mark Boal told EW<\/a> there\u2019s a chance they\u2019ll make a film set before \u201cZero Dark Thirty,\u201d focusing on the failed effort to take down Osama bin Laden in Tora Bora in 2001. This was actually Bigelow and Boal\u2019s original plan, but when bin Laden was taken down, they opted to nix that project just a few months away from production and get to work on a more timely piece that would become \u201cZero Dark Thirty.\u201d Bigelow admits nothing is set in stone and neither she nor Boal have any idea what they\u2019ll do next or if they\u2019ll even continue working together, but the Tora Bora film is in the realm of possibility.<\/p>\n

8. Alternate \u201cDark Knight Rises\u201d Posters:<\/FONT><\/B> Per usual, the latest installment of Christopher Nolan\u2019s Batman franchise enjoyed a wildly successful marketing campaign. In fact, it was so successful, even \u201cThe Dark Knight Rises\u201d poster duds are impressive designs. Trailer Park<\/a> put together the film\u2019s poster line, including a trio of one sheets for Warner Bros. that never hit the streets. But now, just days before the film\u2019s December 4th DVD and Blu-ray release, the marketing agency got the OK to let them breathe, a smart move as these images are likely to attract attention.<\/p>\n

9. Trailers: \u201cDark Skies,\u201d \u201cSnitch,\u201d \u201cJack the Giant Slayer:\u201d<\/FONT><\/B> It\u2019s one thing to fear a slasher paying you a visit in the middle of the night, but it\u2019s another to go head-to-head with an intangible evil. What do you do when an alien life force invades your home and threatens your family? The first trailer for \u201cDark Skies<\/a>\u201d doesn\u2019t go as far as to reveal how the Barrets fight back, but they better have a good plan; these aliens put them in some severely horrifying situations. Enough comedy and kid-friendly fare. Dwayne Johnson is a wrestler-turned-movie star; he\u2019s got to get his action hero on! Not only does Johnson bring on the firepower and intensity in the first trailer for \u201cSnitch<\/a>,\u201d but the film looks to have some solid performances, an intriguingly dark tone and riveting storyline. On the other hand, \u201cJack the Giant Slayer<\/a>\u201d is looking like a big budget misfire that got the boot from its coveted summer 2012 slot for a March 2013 release. The trailer is an improvement from last year\u2019s, but giants are just slightly too cartoonish to take seriously and, in turn, fear. However, a good story could change that come the full feature.<\/p>\n

10. Box Office:<\/FONT><\/B> A very happy Thanksgiving to the \u201cTwilight\u201d franchise. \u201cBreaking Dawn \u2013 Part 2\u201d is certainly letting the series go out with a bang, film five taking in $43 million its second weekend out and $64 million for the full five-day weekend. \u201cSkyfall\u201d has a lot to be thankful for as well, Bond 23 accumulating $36 million for weekend three and $51 million for the holiday. \u201cLincoln\u201d comes in strong at #3, posting $25 million for three days and $34 million for five. As for newcomers \u201cRise of the Guardians\u201d and \u201cLife of Pi,\u201d both enjoyed somewhat solid starts. \u201cRise of the Guardians\u201d was the weaker of the two, but thanks to a wider release, came out on top, earning the 4th spot with $24 million for three days and $32 million for the whole holiday while \u201cPi\u201d secured $22 million in three and $30 million in five.
