About 6 to 8yrs ago New Line Cinema picked up to make Live Action Samurai Jack but went down the drain as fast as Avatar’s would be Oscars.  After years of no word of Samurai Jack’s fate(did he ever finish off Aku?)  J.J. Abrams finally picks up this marvelous cartoon to produce so Samurai Fans REJOICE!!! ^_^  It will not be  live action flick but will be in 2D with 3D stereoscopic elements it isn’t really a downside for me because Hollywood has a tendency to f*** up live action movies. …

Was pretty much a sure fact that HBO had plans for a TV series based on the George R.R. Martin’s A Game of Thrones, since they announced some while ago the cast of the future TV show. But what was not known was this. When the heck they will start filming it? For about an year I heard rumors about a pilot, then nothing.
