Throwing out some movie news I’ve seen over the past week or so…

The new Appleseed movie will be released in the US in January. Not to be confused with the previous attempt at an Appleseed movie. If this plays at the Alamo Drafthouse here in Austin, I’ll go see it…but if it only shows at the Dobie (which is what I’m guessing will happen), then I’ll just wait for it to hit Netflix.

Slashdot references ComingSoon.net who points to a Production Weekly piece about a theatrical Babylon 5 movie going into production next year. Yes…theatrical…the big screen, popcorn, nachos, and soda kinda theatrical. It’ll be interesting to see how they work around all that continuity to create a movie that can be enjoyed by a larger audience than just Babylon 5 fans.
