Kevin Smith Finishes 137-Page ‘Clerks III’ Script

View Askew fans, rejoice! The return (and end) of your beloved convenience store employees is approaching faster than you know.

While the rest of us were busy trying to plan the perfect Mothers Day Sunday, Director Kevin Smith was typing away in his California home on what will become final feature film. After months of teasing, not to mention the one-time thought of turning it into a Broadway production, Smith completed his script to Clerks III and quickly took to Twitter to spread the news. He tweeted, “IT IS ACCOMPLISHED! First draft of CLERKS III is 137 pages. Plays like …

Actress Noomi Rapace States That The Script For ‘Prometheus’ Sequel Is In The Works

The Playlist got a doozy of a scoop while they were chatting with actress Noomi Rapace.

During a press junket for her upcoming thriller Dead Man Down (due out March 8), IndieWire writer Ben Taylor turned the topic of conversation from Rapace’s definite upcoming project to more speculative fare. Specifically, the possibility of a sequel to Prometheus, last year’s Ridley Scott helmed sorta-prequel to the Alien film franchise. And who better to ask than the heroine of the first (potential) installment and parenthetical followup?

On the possibility of a “Prometheus 2″, Rapace had this to say:

READ THIS: The Script For “DEADGIRL 2″ Is Now Online (And Free)

Trent Haaga is one of my heroes.

A few years ago, Trent partnered with some visually gifted friends and turned his script for Deadgirl into a motion picture that continues to haunt the darkest corners of my mind. The film was, to say the least, embraced with loving arms from the horror community and met with the usual outcry for a sequel. Haaga heard this cry and wrote a script for Deadgirl 2, but unfortunately it seem that is when things began to fall apart.

According to Haaga, via his official blog, (extreme) creative differences have killed all …

Dammit, “Top Gun 2″ Is Happening

Tom Cruise is amidst a blitz of press for his latest Mission Impossible flick and recently spilt the beans about another sequel that is sure to equally overjoy and piss off the internet.

In a recent interview with MTVNews, Cruise shed a bit of light on the rumors that have been swirling about the possibility of a Top Gun sequel, but mostly just let people know it is in fact a reality in the making. If online stories are correct (and this is a good if), Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz, the screenwriters behind ‘Thor’ and ‘X-Men: First …

Oh No, “Grown Ups 2″ May Be On The Way

As if Adam Sandler and the rest of Happy Madison haven’t learned from their mistakes in 2011 (AKA Bucky Larson and Jack & Jill), a new Hollywood headline has UTG starting to think they have actually gone insane.

Variety is reporting that Sandler’s production company (Happy Madison) is in talks with Grown Ups writer (and frequent Sandler-collaborator) Fred Wolf to pen a follow-up to 2010′s $271 million dollar box office smash. Those familiar with Sandler’s work know he has never done a sequel, and he currently has no contractual obligations to appear in GU2, but given his company’s …

Dan Aykroyd Says “Ghostbusters 3″ Script Is “Excellent,” Will Shoot With Or Without Bill Murray

Just a few months ago, reps from Sony commented that they would not be moving forward on a new Ghostbusters project without the involvement of Bill Murray. This came as a disappointment to fans across the planet who had been following the sequel, which has been in development limbo for over a decade, and truly believed the video game and other recent pop culture mentions were a sign of good things to come.

Don’t fret just yet because according to Dan Aykroyd the script is finished and shooting is going ahead as planned in Spring 2012, with or without the …

“Sin City 2″ & “Machete 2″ Are Closer Than You Think

As much as I want to suckerpunch Robert Rodriguez for making Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D, it has given us diehard movie fans a chance to bug him about more pressing matters, such as the long overdue sequel for Sin City and the continuation of the Machete legacy.

Recently, Rodriguez was out promoting Spy when he was asked about the progress of the two aforementioned projects. Rodriguez responded, “Sin City 2 is going good, we’re just finishing the script for that, we already got the money. We have everything we need so we can …

SET PHOTOS: The Dark Knight Rises (Batman & Bane!)

Batman-News is a website that every nerd should have bookmarked, but in case you don’t, UTG has you covered.

Earlier today, Batman-News posted the following image (and more) from the set of The Dark Knight Rises:

As you can see, Bane looks freaking badass and Batman looks like he always did (which is endlessly better than the suit Clooney wore in the 90s).

Okay, we can’t resist, here is one more:

MUSIC VIDEO: The Script – Nothing

The Script are back with the second music video for their single “Nothing” that can be viewed by looking below. This song depicts a typical night our on the town with some twists and turns thrown in for good measure. This song comes off of their sophomore effort Science & Faith. Watch and let UTG know what you think of the song and video by commenting.

“The Hangover 3″ is coming…

Now that we’ve released our review and many of you have seen it, can we just outright say The Hangover 2 was, in nearly every sense of the word, a disappointment? Not only was it a verbatim rehash of the first film, but the avenues they took to make it “fresh” was essentially just amplified vulgarity in the form of male nudity and slutty monkeys. You may feel differently (which is fine), but I can speak for our entire staff when I say we all left the cinema feeling robbed and uninterested in continuing the adventures of the wolf pack.…
