Wolverine Sequel – writer of X-Men tapped for new film…
Good start with McQuarrie writing 🙂 Wolvie, Gambit and Rogue are my faves…Cannot wait for Deadpool...
When Hugh Jackman told MTV News that some exciting people were attached to the “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” sequel, we didn’t expect to find out about any of them this quickly—but some big “Wolverine 2” news has hit the wire!
…In a repeat of their “Wolverine” pairing, Jackman will produce the sequel alongside Lauren Shuler Donner. No stranger to the X-Men universe, McQuarrie was one of several uncredited screenwriters on the 2000 “X-Men” film, which he worked on alongside his frequent collaborator, director Bryan Singer. While McQuarrie’s attachment is certainly interesting on its own, what it could mean about a potential return to the franchise for Singer is also worth contemplating….
Will Bryan Singer be back as well?
…Back in May, the director told MTV News he “would love to return to that universe,” making a decision to rejoin Fox’s X-Men franchise that much more likely—especially with so many uncertainties surrounding a potential sequel to his most recent comic book movie, “Superman Returns.”…
…trades are abuzz with news that Hugh Jackman will return (and produce) for a second movie about comic-book character Wolverine….
The film ended with one of two teasers, depending on your theater: One showed Deadpool’s survival, and the other followed Wolvie to Japan, echoing a famous storyline in the comic books from the 1980s.
The second “Wolverine” movie would follow that plot, with the Marvel Comics superhero learning the code of the samurai. Chris McQuarrie, who wrote the first “X-Men” movie, has been tapped to write this one as well…

Editorial Reviews:
Wizard Magazine
“The best Halloween film of the last 30 years.”Sammuel Zimmerman, Fangoria
“We have a new classic on our hands.”Fangoria
“No film since John Carpenter’s HALLOWEEN has captured the creepy spirit of the holiday.”Andrew Kasch, Dread Central
“Trick ‘r Treat is the film that horror fans have been waiting for – the antidote to every insipid remake, sequel and over hyped “holy grail” we’ve had to suffer through in recent years.”Dustin Putnam, themovieboy.com
“Twisted, violent, tense, and blissfully maniacal… One of the most handsome, lushly detailed horror features in years. Trick ‘r Treat is destined to put the most sour of souls in the Halloween spirit.”Product Description
The doorbell rings, the cry goes out: Trick ‘R Treat! But, wait. What’s actually going on during this ghostly All Hallows Eve? Something eerie and unexpected. Something splattered and spooky. Something that brings ghouls, vampires and werewolves into the night. Answer the door – a shocking surprise awaits. From producer Bryan Singer (director of X-Men and Superman Returns) and writer-director Michael Dougherty (co-scripter of X2 and Superman Returns) comes a multitale bag of wicked yarns, four cleverly interlocked stories built on Shocktober admonitions like always check the candy and don’t extinguish the jack-o-lantern before midnight. So answer the door now: Experience horror made for today’s fright fan. DVD Features: “Trick ‘R Treat: Season’s Greetings” with optional commentary by Director Michael Dougherty

The low-budget horror film weaves four stories that take place on Halloween night. The film languished in distribution hell for a few years until festival screenings and film blogs helped resurrect it.

…Confirming what director Michael Dougherty told us at Comic-Con, Warner has announced that his Trick ‘r Treat movie will drop on DVD and Blu-ray on Oct. 6; the Blu-ray will feature Dougherty’s commentary, a “Season’s Greetings” animated short film, “Trick ‘r Treat: The Lore and Legends of Halloween,” additional scenes and special effects comparisons….

CNBC: “The stock market has gotten ahead of reality, Pimco’s Mohamed El-Erian told CNBC Friday.
In a continuation of recent comments, El-Erian, co-chief executive officer of the largest bond fund manager in the world, said the US has yet to see a durable and sustainable recovery.
“Stock investors are making overly optimistic assumptions,” El-Erian said. “The key stimulus has already come into the consumer and has helped in the last few months. But for the third and fourth quarters looking ahead, I am not so sure things will be as good.”
Just three weeks ago, El-Erian told CNBC that the stock market spent July on a “sugar high,” rising to levels not justified by an economy that is still limping along….”
