MEN IN BLACK 3 SONY
No image

Here come the Men in Black...in your face for Memorial Day Weekend 2012. Yes, the lure of 3-D has propelled Sony to take the sci-fi comedy series to Planet Trilogy, where stars Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, as well as director Barry Sonnenfeld, will return to the franchise that has grossed over $1 billion worldwide.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES WARNER BROS.

Holy threequels, Batman! Warner Bros. officially announced the release date of the most anticipated movie of the new decade as July 20, 2012. That's exactly 4 years after "The Dark Knight" grossed an unprecedented $533 million domestically and over a billion worldwide. No word yet on the cast, but expect Christopher Nolan at the helm...unless WB insists on 3-D...which Nolan has publicly opposed.
