The year 2003 was great. The end to Matrix. The end to Lord of the Rings. What, if anything, is there to look forward to? Not a whole lot. I may be alone on this one, but I'm not holding much hope for Star Wars III. I think Lucas has sunk that ship already. Star wars used to hold the "best graphics fx" crown, but Lord of the Rings has taken that away as well. Only other possible classics are the fourth Indiana Jones picture...and the rumored prequel to Lord of the Rings.

Originally posted by sargentlard Confirmed for a while. Peter Jackson directing, 2006 expected release date. Last I heard was they were trying to still secure the rights. Thanks for the info sarge. I am sure New Line can't wait to basterdize another good book for cereal boxes and boxers and plastic playthings.
It's funny, but apart from three or four movies I don't remember much from 2003 cinemawise... seemed like the year of a few, really popular flicks.
Yeah seriously, Kill Bill II is coming out soon. Dumbasses. Anyway - simply because something is part of a trilogy doesn't make it good.
The only part of that that makes me shutter is that it will probably make Orson Scott Card happy, and I cant stand the thought of that. Oh sure, enders game was good, but the guy is a prick. Just look at his website... uhg. So he can have his videogame, and his movie, and the subsequent merchandising, but I hope he goes back to writing those bible novelizations so I dont have to hear about him again.
kajolishot: You getting shot through the skull for putting the Matrix on a list of greats. Looking forward to Shurbert's symphonies coming to town. Sweetness. And Outkast of course.
Is there going to be an X-men 3? That would be cool. I was very impressed by the second one. Ender's game was great, but I predict that the movie will be extremely awful. We saw what happens when a movie is made about a book that contains a lot of violence, but whose primary message and story is seperate from it, with starship troopers. The violence is increased, the story is ignored. I think Ender's game will be even worse than starship troopers.
its not even 100% enders game, its a hybrid Ender's Shadow/Game movie, enders shadow was ok, but it was so lame, it just wasnt the same caliber...something about how he wrote it made it seem really childish. ..
It isn't official but as we all know there will be one especially after the huge success ofthe first two. The script is in the works but it isn't confirmed yet. They have to finish off that awesome cliffhanger of the Pheonix.
