Condensed Movie News is a daily roundup list of interesting news tidbits that came out today, but weren’t big enough to warrant a full post.
Today was a lackluster news day. So here are a few quick news bits for you to nibble on.
- As media attention on Tron Legacy continues to grow, Disney is already looking into creating a animated TV show as a way to keep interesting going for the series even after the 2nd movie has come and gone. The rumored plan is to make Tron a trilogy. I am all for that as long as we get Daft Punk to score the 3rd movie as well.

- Sin City director, Robert Rodriguez, will be showcasing some footage of his upcoming movie, Predators at the South By Southwest festival in Austin, Texas. Predators is a prequel to the classic Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, Predator. South By Southwest (or “SXSW” as it is abbreviated) starts March 12th and goes on until the 21st.
- All 12 X-Men Origins: Wolverine fans rejoice! A sequel to the Wolverine origins story will officially start filming next January, 2011. Hopefully, this time they can make Wolverine’s claws not look like the work of an After Effects newb. Also, I am looking forward to seeing this movie because I liked the 1st movie. Hate on it all you want. I know it was dumb, but it was still a fun action movie for me. I don’t exactly hold the bar very high for comic based action movies that center around loner men who are filled with generic rage.
Dr. HorribleNeil Patrick Harris will be starring in the upcoming Smurfs movie. Did I mention there is going to be a Smurfs Movie? No? Yeah, you can see what I mean by lackluster news day.

- The cast of the Jersey Shore has been doing some Oscar parody videos for George Lopez. I thought the videos were just alright, but since I am not one to judge what everyone else thinks is funny, I’ll post the link here to the videos and let you decided on whether or not you should spend your time watching Snooki pretend she is Lt. Aldo Raine from Inglourious Basterds, or if your time is much better spent playing Bejewled. That game is so much fun guys!
