The Film Wiz

Writer Evan Spiliotopoulos, who co-wrote Pooh’s Heffalump Movie and its DVD Halloween spin-off, has been hired to write the script for Universal sequel Wanted 2. Like it’s earlier predecessor, Wanted 2will be based on the comic book series created by Mark Millar and J.G. Jones.

I took a quick look at Evan Spiliotopoulos’ bio on IMDBjust to see what other screenplays he’s done before…Quite frankly I don’t see why Universal chose him over the original screen writers…The majority of Spiliotopoulos work has been on children’s movies….I’m not sure he’s the perfect choice for a grown up movie..lol….But i guess i can’t knock the guy too much, there’s only one way to broaden your horizons…Just get up and do it…Not too sure I’d be wiling to risk loosing millions of dollars all because someone wanted to try new things, but that would be blamed on the dumb ass at Universal…

The trailer for Nimrod Antal’s latest thriller Armored is in and it’s sick!!

Set to hit theaters September 18, 2009 Armored will take the screen with one hell of a cast, including actors: Columbus Short, Matt Dillon and Laurence Fishbourne. Be sure to check it out.
