3D Sequels for 'Zombieland' and 'Jackass' Confirmed

Having attended the concern premiere at Fantastic Fest, I was constructive Zombieland would be a articulate of mouth impact and the fictive association both behind and in face of the camera would sure be backward to their special post-apocalyptic concern in no time. But, in retrospect, my undergo was a little taste biased. While I conceive the flick holds up no concern when and where it's playing, display Zombieland in a regal, old-school flick hall in face of a festivity gathering that takes to zombies same dynasty Solo takes to a Tauntaun (yes, we ofttimes curl up inside the gooey, mushy embrace of the undead to ready hearty on particularly cold horror winters), is more than hedging your bet; I can't envisage a meliorate venue.

There were fast talks of sequels at the Q&A following the film, and every participating were clearly game, but then the flick went on to be only a mild hit, and not the grandslam digit would hit expected from the gathering reactions at Fantastic Fest. What seemed same a lock seemed even shakier when Rhett Rheese, digit half of the film's writing team, mentioned that Zombieland's stance as the most pirated flick currently on the gain had put the forthcoming of the should-be concern in jeopardy.

But every that worrying was for nothing, it turns out, as Sony has absent aweigh and penciled in a trip backwards to Zombieland in their to do list. As of now, stars Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg are in talks to return, but administrator Ruben Fleischer and writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick hit every subscribed on to boost flesh discover the comedic modify of the world. And boost discover it shall be, as Sony has also addicted that the untitlted conception two module be filmed in 3D.

While I hit no uncertainty that the capital trio that prefabricated the prototypal flick much a wind module become up with plentitude of structure to embrace the extra dimension, as evidenced by producer Gavin Polone explaining that Zombieland is "clearly a flick that module goodness from the technique", I can't help but adopt that this is more of a business decision than a fictive one. It's a hell of a aggregation harder to pillager a flick with movement perceptions of depth to it than it is a simple insipid enterprise, so the obvious rendering here is that Sony was more than a little destroyed by how rampantly the prototypal flick was pirated.

And in tangentially attendant news, Paramount has prefabricated a third Jackass flick official. William Goss picked up on the planned cosmos of Jackass 3D, but the flat denied some much plans. As with most things in Hollywood, however, things hit denaturized and today sadomasochistic stunt impact in 3D is officially official; and not too farther off, either. Filming is set to begin on January 25th of 2010 with a release a few months later. There are no concern info on what category of debauchery Johhny Knoxville and friends module be effort up to this instance around, but if you're wondering whether or not the higher outlay of photography in 3D is feat to become with stricter flat mandates, I'd just take a spring over Variety's itemize of actuation locations: "Knob Lick, Kentucky, Mianus, Connecticut, Fukang, China, Buttzville, New milker and Gayville, South Dakota."

Yep, I'd feature that about fits with what we've become to expect from the franchise.
