Movies

The problem is that they already missed the summer shooting date. If a start date was looking anytime soon I doubt GDELT would have quit.

Sounds like it may be awhile before MGM gets sold and this gets green lit. He has put in 2 years and PJACK says he would need to be there for 4 more. So unless that 4th year is just  him working on an extended DVD version then it could be that both movies could be pushed back by another year. He didn't quit because they were in pre-production he quit because he couldn't get a start date to begin filming. MGM needs more then Bond and Hobbits to pay off that huge debt and I think at this point  a potential buyer might just wait until bankruptcy and try and pick up those assets at auction. You don't have to carry the  MGM baggage.

Link doesn't work (at least for me) but the story can also be found in AINTITCOOL. {nm} Matias May 30, 16:24

I think all the geeks are trying to access the site at one time. I just let it spin and it loaded. {nm} Vashta Nerada May 30, 16:27

It worked for me on the second try. THR has picked up the story, link inside RogerMore May 30, 16:27

Variety has too. Guess they read these boards too. :) {nm} Vashta Nerada May 30, 16:35

They just need to finish the scripts, and get a new director, get a cast, and wait for MGM mess to get settled so they can be greenlit? {nm} RazorHawk May 30, 22:16

yeah obviously the MGM mess is the stumbling block {nm} nero5150 May 30, 22:36

No, they don't need any of that stuff to get the preproduction ready... secretstalker May 31, 04:26

The last report still said November start, which is five months away. secretstalker May 31, 04:27

I was wondering why my port shot up a million just while I was out to dinner...now I understand. {nm} davmoo May 30, 19:04

forgive me my naivete but how does a non commital studio and subsequent loss of a director translate into a $H11+- jump in value? {nm} voxu Jun 01, 19:22
