Insisious 3 will still be a thing! (without James Wan)

Even more news has recently come out concerning Insidious! On Monday Entertainment One, FilmDistrict and Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions have said that they are already planning on making a third Insidious installment!

If  you have not yet heard the Director of the first two Insidious films has recently announced that he will be taking a break from directing horror (read the whole story here!)  They have not released who they want to direct Insidious Chapter 3 but they have said it will be produced by the same company and that Leigh Whannell will be reprising his role as the screenwriter.




Tell me, how do you feel about this. Do you think that it will still be good without Wan or what?

Sequels, Reboots and more Sequels! (The Mummy and a Friday the 13th tv show?)

Yup, you read right! The director of the original Friday the 13th and producer of others has announced that he's planning on a sequel to the 2009 reboot! Sean Cunningham said ,"There will be another Friday the 13th, which will probably get shot in the spring. If it all goes as I would like, it would then be released at the beginning of 2015." 




If  you're surprised wait till you hear this! Cunningham added ," I think there will also be Friday the 13th: Crystal Lake Chronicles, which is sort of a Smallville. We’ve been on-again off-again with that for years and there are a bunch of great stories to be told, but I think the way that it’s finally going to get delivered is not through a conventional television network, but through the Internet. I can’t tell you who the delivery people will be, but it won’t be the traditional route. There’s also the possibility of webisodes, and I think we even have an idea for a terrific Friday the 13th video game."

Coming fall 2014!
There has also been announced that Andres Muschietti (director of Mama) is planning on a reboot of the classic monster movie The Mummy! We also know that Jon Spaiths (writer on Prometheus) wrote the script. Before you groan apparently his original script for Prometheus was much better than what they used so there is hope!





So tell me, are you guys excited for these reboots/ remakes or are you tired of them?

James Wan: Retiring from Horror?

Yeah, so apparently James Wan (director of The Conjuring, Insidious and Insidious Chapter 2) is finished making horror movies. So, if your at all like me your thinking, "why in the hell would he do this?" Well, this is his reason, "I spent the last 10 years of my life doing this. It's time for a change, for goodness sake."


Ok hold up, you're saying that over the past ten years you've worked on six horror movies and now you "...go on record and say I am finished with the horror genre. Conjuring and Insidious 2 are my two last scary movies." Isn't that just a bit hasty? I know he's in his middle thirties but to completely write off the horror genre, forever?





I don't care what he says, hopefully we will still get a few more scary flicks from Wan in the future. What do you guys think of this, is he speaking out of his ass or do you agree with his decision? Tell me below!
