I do hope so and I've said this before. Have Peter Jackson direct it and spread the first novel into 2-3 parts, as there's a lot to cover. Add a budget to rival the LOTR trilogy; we could have the greatest Sci-Fi of all time. The epic potential is there.
They are going to be mixing up Captain America, Thor, and Hulk into The Avengers. I'm looking forward to that. Even in separate Marvel films, they are going to be putting in alot of cross-over cameos I believe.
- Jurassic park (3 Movies) talk of a 4th
- Lord of the rings (3, hopefully soon to be more) it was a trilogy...and the producing company of the films lost the rights to produce 'The Hobbit' when they committed fraud and mislead the family of JRR Tolkien (they were supposed to get half of all proceeds, but got less than 10% i think)
- Alien & Predator (8 movies) no doubt more to come
- Star trek (11 movies) bound to be more
- Pirates of the caribbean (3 movies) talk of a 4th
- Blade (3 movies) talk of a 4th
- Spider-Man (3 movies, 1 upcoming 2011)
- Saw (5 movies) talk of a 6th
- Resident Evil (3 movies) expected 4th from end of Extinction
- 28 Days Later/28 Weeks Later (2 movies) talk of a 3rd, 28 Months Later

Nope, you're wrong. The Golden Compass series is kaput. If it does poorly in North America, all other considerations are second.
There was an announcement today about the latest director for CONAN.
Now maybe this could be the next big thing - except the director is Marcus Nispel, hack extraordinaire behind horror remakes (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday The 13th) and Viking actioner 'Pathfinder'
That's enough to make me think the series is over before it's started.

The Halloween and Friday 13th franchises are being rebooted, and Rob Zombie has already said he's going to be making the entire halloween series again in his awesome way...
Haven't seen Friday 13th, but it looked like it was intersting, not seen the originals either...apart from Halloween H2O and Jason X which don't really count. They're like, the death of the series'
The Nispel-directed Friday the 13th earlier this year WAS the Reboot. And Rob Zombie did his Halloween remake two years ago. And Halloween H2O wasn't last of the series - that was Halloween: Resurrection in 2002. And they all count.
The point still is, I'm not confident at all in Marcus Nispel making CONAN the next big thing.

Halloween, and Halloween H20 are the only ones I like in the series and only ones I own on DVD, Halloween Resurrection was the one that ruined that series, terrible addition.
As for the sequel to The Golden Compass, it's real shame.
i know they've already been rebooted, i mean the franchises are being rebooted. Rob Zombie hadn't spoke until about a year ago about directing Halloween 2, and Friday 13th has only just come out on DVD (in England anyways).
And i didnt say H2O was the last of the series, i simply said it was the only of the original series that i've seen...

What do you mean, are being rebooted?
