Cobain, the tortured genius behind Nirvana who killed himself in 1994 has become one of the most iconic figures in the history of angry, angry music. It seems that Oren moverma – Oscar-nominated writer-director of the Woody Harrelson/Ben Foster flick The Messenger – is in talks to write an direct Cobain’s biopic.

After the world-domination success of the High School Musical trilogy, it’s only natural that the big dogs at Disney attempt a movie to fill the gaping gap in the tween market. And what have we learnt from High School Musical? Kids like High Schools. Kids like Dancing. Kids like other kids looking really fancy. Cue, Prom.

When published in 2002 The Lovely Bones was an instant success, climbing to top of the UK as well as US book charts. So how do you tell a tale about the grizzly rape and murder of a 14 year-old girl onscreen, whilst making sure it can be released a PG? By getting rid of that pesky rape and muder part, of course! Peter Jackson’s take on Alice Sebold’s novel is certainly beautiful to look at, but it has to be asked, is that really the point?

Do you ever wake up in a cold sweat, heart beating rapidly, eyes wild and one thought in your mind – ‘Why, oh why isn’t there an American Pie 4?’..

It’s always nice to stay ahead of the curve, if only so you can feel unneccessarily smug in front of friends and loved ones.

Last week saw the announcement that Riddick 3 was definitely underway, and we have to say, we’re pretty gosh darn sort of ish not really excited about it. Oh come on, it’s Riddick 3! How much more snarling can Vin Diesel have in him? A lot more, apparently. After stating that this time around the plot would go ‘back to basics’, today The Hollywood Reporter has revealed a lot more details. And it’s.. well… not exactly what we thought of when we heard ‘basics’.

If there’s one word we’re definitely not getting sick of, it’s ‘re-make’. Tom Hanks seems to have jumped upon the band wagon, having announced today that his company PlayTone Productions plans to remake a french film entitled Summer Hours. And the best part? The film only came out in 2008. What’s next? We wouldn’t be surprised if tomorrow there’s an announcement telling us there’s planned re-make of Burton’s Alice In Wonderland underway.

Oh come on guys! Why would you do away with the best part of the entire Oscar ceremony – the tearful and hysterical thank yous from weeping stars and starlets? The organisers of this year’s Academy Awards have instructed all the nominees that this year there’s a strict time limit on winners’ speeches; 45 seconds is your limit.

My Name is Khan has become Bollywood’s most successful box office opener in the UK, grossing more than £936,000 since opening last Friday.
